Nah, it's just hiring a good coach. We haven't hired a good, young coach with a history of success since Haskins. Every coach since has been flawed in some way - flash-in-the-pan, old, never-was, and less-than-never-was. It would be nice, for once, to hire a coach with a few years of success as...

This is definitely not factual, as the 1983 draft had 6 QBs taken in the first round alone.

Oh, it's possible. Repeated kindergarten 3-4 times?

So how did you go to school with him for a few years? Your story is unraveling.

I'm aware. So that means he was ~13 in 2012, when you started posting here. How old were you?

You went to school with him for a few years? Did you start posting here when you were 10 years old? That would explain a lot, actually.

Treadwell??? Big and fast??? Huh??? Give me some of what you're smoking, please. Treadwell tested very poorly at the combine and pro day in almost everything, especially and particularly in the 40. He isn't big, either. He's a physical and willing blocker, and that's essentially the kindest...

Every year he's been healthy, he has been awesome - and that's under two vastly different defensive schemes. I'm not necessarily advocating to re-sign him, but saying he played up for a new contract is more than a little disingenuous.

Slightly over 2 years younger - December 2000 to January 2003.

It already does - more than six months, actually. Players report in July, and the Super Bowl is now in mid-February.

Of course they can. They can have multiple feeds going at all times should they choose to do so. They don't, and won't, because putting them on channels like Peacock create new revenue streams.

The handful of profitable sports subsidize the rest, which range from slight loss to hemorrhaging massive piles of cash. The massive TV deals are needed just to break even for almost all athletic departments nationwide, and it's only getting worse with the NIL nonsense.

That was a lot of words just to say this, which is correct and what you should've said in the first place, instead of your previous incorrect statement.

Where do you come up with this stuff? Brady, Montana, Manning, Favre, Brees, Warner, Wilson, Unitas, Dawson, Moon, Gannon, Cunningham, Cousins... Should I keep going?

Quick glance says 6-6 or 5-7; 2-1 non-con (loss to VA. Tech), 3 favored Big Ten wins (Minnesota, Illinois, @MSU) and a pick-'em game @Nebraska. They are a fringe bowl team, an historical punching bag - and yet, per Sagarin, we're a 6-pt underdog on a neutral field.

Correct, my bad.

Winfield played 4 games in both his true freshman and RS freshman seasons (missed the final 8 regular season games both years due to injury) and didn't make any freshman All-American teams that I'm aware of, largely due to playing only 4 games.

From which orifice are you pulling these numbers? $50M would be top 5, $45M would be top 8. Every QB in the top 10 is younger than Cousins, most significantly younger, and the only QB close to his age is Russell Wilson, who is getting pushed out of Denver. And every QB in the top 10 is in the...

Obviously a lot will change between now and August 29, but as of now, using Sagarin's 2023 year-end data (https://sagarin.com/sports/cfsend.htm), here is how the Gophers 2024 season is shaping up: Game Date Opponent...

Ha, that's laughable. I've been thinking 2 years and $60-70MM would be fair and a good deal for both sides. No one is giving a 36-year-old QB coming off a major season-ending injury that kind of money. I hope for Cousins' sake that King pulled that number out of his ass, because Cousins will be...
