    Deep passing game

    Even with Tanner, this was two NFL receivers and Run After the Catch. He didn't have a big arm. Became an offense of Seam routes, slants, and crossing pattern to give Bateman and TJ RAC opportunities. My point is how do you want to define a deep passing game? Power Arm and Deep Speed vs quick...

    What grade would you give the Gophers coaching in the win over Virginia Tech?

    A-/B+ - Showed a little rust early and treaded water in the 2nd half. That team wasnt that good....

    ESPN: College football transfer portal Insider (Five teams off to a good start: Minnesota)

    PJ looks for kids who will work hard and buy into his system. Outside of Irving, we haven't been a big target of other schools to plunder. Can say all you want about "RTB", but the system and the culture help players thrive here. We get kids drafted, which didn't use to get said.

    Marshall has notified officials that it is opting out of the Independence Bowl vs. Army, sources tell @YahooSports.

    Was it 3 years ago that Army got hosed and didn't get a bowl because of all the tie-ins? Didn't need to happen again. Lost to Navy, but that's still a special team. Thank-you to LA Tech for Next Man Up and keeping the Skunks out of there.

    Lane Kiffin is a D!!

    Conceivably - he wins his bowl game while all the SEC teams lose in the playoff right away. Quit whining

    Frost back to UCF

    Espn is reporting. Sometimes you can't go home. Hope this works out for him.

    Does Fleck get asked to interview for other coaching openings ?

    Potentially "Yes", depending on what he wants. We need him more than he needs us. The U has made him very rich, and he has had a lot of success here based on our previous standards. Nothing there says he "has" to stay and coaches also get bored. He is no different. This also gets setup for him...

    Cow Pasture

    Just looked at ESPN - Showed the Gophers playing GA Tech in the Pinstripe Bowl. Like the match-up (if true). Don't like the "where". Can I humbly suggest a cow pasture w/wo the cows?

    Does Max Brosmer have an NFL future after one year with Gophers?

    I knew that - but for the type of team he could play for, his fan base may be where he played previously.

    Does Max Brosmer have an NFL future after one year with Gophers?

    As an example, Chase Daniels had many years of drawing NFL paychecks with somewhat of the same make-up. Right situation at the right time..... It would be better if he were to go the FA route. Otherwise, head north to Canada. New Hampshire is close to Hamilton, Toronto, and Montreal......

    Planting Flags and confrontations

    Been a lot of instances of planting flags on a team's logo lately. NC State and Florida were the two I read about yesterday. Multiple confrontations.... Michigan/OSU, Army/UTSA, etc. Needs to stop or have coach put his foot down. Might take a lengthy suspension or pulling a scholly. Even with...

    How much trouble is Ryan Day in?

    Gone without making a NC game appearence and even then its iffy. That team lost all its balls - no physicality at all. Chip Kelly was brought in to score points. 10 against an average Michigan team that took the game a lot more seriously than THE ohio state did.

    Luke Fickell is in how much trouble?

    They went Air Raid and then fired the guy. Now what? He's not "in trouble" now but will have laser focus towards him once the OC decision is made. He needs to win 9+ next year or show some serious progress. Beat 1 or 2 of the front-runners would help. Never thought this was his ultimate...

    Does Fleck get asked to interview for other coaching openings ?

    No.... But a better question is what bar does a coach need to be held to here? 6 to 8 wins, good losses, and an occasional lights out year? The bad years aren't typically much less than that. Everybodys opinion changes if the offense isn't boring or if the phrase "tressel-ball" wasn't invented

    Gophers finish regular season 7-5, 5-4 in Big Ten, win over wisconsin - what grade would you give the regular season?

    C for coaching. Yes close losses. Took too long for the Offense to catch fire. If you are going to bring in Brossmer, let him do his thing. We didn't do that early.

    Are you saying that the skunks can't make a bowl for academic reason at 5-7 like the Gophers can?
