    Eden Prairie Coach

    The players who quit showed up to their playoff game last night and sat in the bleachers with protest signs. Not sure what they could sue the school district for. From what I hear, the three players are bent out of shape that the the district, upon completing their investigation, didn't get...

    What seed would the Gophers be?

    A little of both. I had my Gopher hat on the other day and somebody mockingly asked me if I thought they could run the table in the B1G Tourney. It got me thinking about about how the selection committee would seed such a team.

    What seed would the Gophers be?

    If, by a miracle, we somehow make a run and win the Big Ten Tournament. 12. 13. 14,? The lowest seed that ever won a power 5 conference tourney appears to be Michigan, who did it as an 8 seed in the BTT tourney and ended up a 7 seed in the NCAA tourney...

    STrib: How transferring in Minnesota high school sports reached 'out of control' status (Mpls South HS basketball lost 8 kids to transfer)

    The issue is that most players can (and do) transfer without siting out a season. I could name 20 transfers off the top of my head that didn't meet the MSHL "criteria" and didn't have to sit out. The 5-6 that I know who were required to sit out a year (based on the same MSHL criteria) all...

    Eden Prairie Coach

    I don't think all of the black players quit. I think they had 5 at the start of the season. 5 minus the football player who enrolled at KSU, minus who is still playing = who is behind this lawsuit.

    STrib: How transferring in Minnesota high school sports reached 'out of control' status (Mpls South HS basketball lost 8 kids to transfer)

    The "Get the Suburbs" rule has worked well so far. 100's of kids have transferred without issue (I'm sure all of their families moved within district), but if one of those kids in the suburbs does it.............. The MSHL reading of the rule is laughable based on what's happened since its...

    ESPN Mock Draft: Round 2, Pick 1: John Michael Schmitz, C, Minnesota

    There aren't any "can't miss" picks, especially a couple of third round draft picks. Elflein was really good for a year or two and then fell off a cliff. Personally, I wouldn't pass on a player at a position of need based on an arbitrary "rule" if I felt really strongly about his prospects...

    ESPN Mock Draft: Round 2, Pick 1: John Michael Schmitz, C, Minnesota

    I get that argument, and it appears that most NFL teams agree. Number of first round interior lineman drafted the last five years: 2022 - 3 2021 - 1 2020 - 1 2019 - 2 (Bradbury) 2018 - 3 (2 really good ones, Quenton Nelson and Frank Ragnow) On a side note, here's a list of the last 9 Vikings...

    ESPN Mock Draft: Round 2, Pick 1: John Michael Schmitz, C, Minnesota

    Looking back at past drafts can be painful. 2018 we took Mike Hughes. Lamar Jackson and Shaquille Leanord went soon after. 2019 we took Garrett Bradbury. Jeffrey Simmons, Montez Sweat and Deebo Samuel went soon after. Darrisaw and obviously JJ were good picks. Verdict is out on the...

    Lou Holtz at Minnesota - 1984-1985

    Summer of 1985 Our family was swimming at our neighbors pool when Holtz called and told our neighbor that he should buy season tickets and that he thinks they will have a really good team. He was actually making telemarking calls. After a quick consultation with my dad, they agreed to go in on...
