Perhaps some GH fans don’t really know what some Nebby fans really think about Frost?

Nebraska’s big problem lies in the fact that they have never become physical enough up front on offense or defense, I would contend. There was a time in the Big Eight when they were. Then, all that spread stuff took them out of “black shirt” mode and they increasingly tried to rely on, big...

I would not fire him. That team has improved. They are a tough win for most BT teams. Brewster at Mn had a full conference season with Zero BT Conference wins. That is a sin worse than death for a BT Coach. He was given more time. Finally in his last season, he had ZERO BT Conference wins...

He IS a “…run the ball, stop the run …” Coach. A real BT Football Coach. He will continue to know his players, and his: “…next man up culture is the sharing of responsibility for the good of the team. It is what the U of M needs this year and for the future. It is one of the greatest things...

Thanks. And thanks for what you helped start with GH, et al other early names of GH. You, sir, are a gentleman, scholar and visionary champion … sincerely, wren (aka a number of other monikers…) I am certain that I do recall meeting you… and will refer to you only by your current moniker...

Hello to you too Go for Gold. I also had the pleasure and honor to meet and have a nice long discussion with Bob39. He was a wonderful Gopher fan. Saw him at a: “…Sota Social…” in the McNamara building. The event was a”signing day event” in February. MASE was still the coach. Getting so...

I honestly DON’T believe that there could be a good chance of going to the Rose Bowl without defeating both Iowa & Wisconsin in the same season unless for some reason the schedule makers omitted one or those stinking border battle schools from the Gopher schedule. That is not likely to happen...

Such is the way of the world for college football unless the college is Ohio State, Alabama or just a few other spots. And yes, as a Gopher fan I can love that fact and live with that fact. It makes it just THAT more special when an extraordinary season comes along. We have an on campus...

Great statistics, MaxyJR1. There is enough sample size now to have the numbers provide real comparisons with the history of this program. This coach is practicing what he preaches. His actions reinforce what he professes! We fans are fortunate and can be PROUD Gopher fans!!!

STABILITY at last! Very well stated Gold Rush, very well put!

It certainly was in 2020 when sports were cut and the U was considering taking on additional debt to cover among a few other things a very large athletic department shortfall.

We raise our own offensive linemen, tight ends, linebackers and some pretty fair wide receivers. That makes up a good number of positions. And, best of all, we have our own open air, horse shoe, on campus stadium and get real weather possibilities during the last half of October and all of...

Mason’s teams probably put more pressure on their own defense simply because his offenses were SO EXPLOSIVE! I loved watching Mason’s offense. I also did lament the fact that the defensive team spent SO MUCH time on the field against spread offenses that they always wore themselves out. It...

This 2021 Gopher team is quite possibly, the ultimate “dream team” of the Kill/TC & the Staffers era. The Northwestern game is a prime example of offensive ball control, clock control and sheltering/enhancing the defenders by keeping the defense off the field. That is ultimate defense! I say...

You mean culture won’t rise to the occasion? I think the Gophs and the culture are ready to get it done this time. At some time, our coach, his staff and all the players have to say: “…enough is enough…” and just plain pick up the ball and run with it. Take matters into their own hands and...

The Minnesota Athletics Department has revenue shortfalls that are supported, in part by revenue provided by the state government coffers here. Our administrators don’t appear to be great fund raisers, and, unfortunately, we don’t know how to sell out events and get big donors interested in...

Look, if Nebraska fans could be convinced that Coach Fleck could restore them to respectability, some of them would try to do dna testing to prove Fleck is actually Dr. Tom’s long lost grandson. A few might start putting row boats in their cornfields. They would swear that culture was first...

My ranking of the Big Ten teams can ONLY be completed when the Big Ten 2021 schedule has been completed. I will look only at the BT wins and losses against other Big Ten Teams. At the present time all the data is not in and it would be an injustice to all Big Ten teams to do a ranking of BT...

MB2, Tepeh and Maroney, along with that smaller, quicker, zone blocking offensive line. And yes, they could throw the ball too. Defense was a problem in a big way. The Big Ten was loaded with great offenses then and many defenses were challenged to the max. Northwestern could score a lot of...

Of course I would not trade to go back to Mason’s pre on campus stadium days of having no on campus stadium and sharing the joint with the Twins, the Vikings and monster truck / tractor pull events which was humiliating, horrible and self defeating. But I loved watching some of Mason’s teams...
