Just make one of a classic number --like a Nagurski #72, or a Foggie #14 -- something like that..

I think that is just what the doctor ordered here. Let's not forget, this was a very good defense this year. It would have been even better if we had put more pressure on the opposing QB's but statistically, this was one of our best years in modern, non leather-helmet wearing memory. It was...

I still remember Pinnacle CEO trying to convince people from Minnesota to move to Memphis. "I can not understand why anyone wouldn't want to live here in Memphis," he said. Unfortunately -- he was gunned down in Memphis less than a year later. I guess THAT'S why they didn't want to move down...

I think they really opened up the Pandora's Box with this one and there's no going back from here. Eventually, maybe they can get back to the one year penalty on transfers - that should discourage it a little bit.

Ah yes, Reno was one of the all time movie greats! One time I went back to 1981 and renamed all the Gophers to those players -- then each year the recruits would be the next year's team's recruits.

I do not know if having you raise NIL money to pay for players would be in any way fun at all for the game. I expect they will have to do something with an expanded recruiting function for transfer portal players though and I bet you will lose a bunch of players who aren't starters every year. I...

A lot has changed since their last edition, but in the Summer of 2024 comes the long awaited edition for college football fans. I don't know how much will be changed to the Dynasty feature, but today's football has NIL deals and the transfer portal and I am wondering if you are going to...

Funny, I never heard Jim Dutcher complain about how tough of a job he had here. Back then, Gopher basketball tickets were tough to get and the team was excellent every year. My how things have changed with a gradual progression downward with each hire over the last 40 years. Gotta give Ben...

Of COURSE!! Sanders has already given the starting QB job to his son. McCown has zero chance.

I think they will improve the team with an initial burst of quality recruiting - but it takes time, too. He will stick around long enough to get his kid through as the starting QB, after that he has no loyalty to Colorado. This is all about him - I think it will be similar to when Lou Holtz came...

The way I see this whole thing going is kind of a mirror to when Lou Holtz came here. They win 4 games next year, 6 the next and then he moves on to somewhere flashier like a USC or Florida St. and then leaves them just when things are looking promising. It looks great now -- but you know it...

I agree -- he will be gone in 3 years but don't count out Florida St. -- that is the job he really wants and if there is an opening he will want it bad.

If the Gophers take this game seriously -- they should win handily. I think they cover that 7 points easily. If they go in saying they should be playing in a better bowl the only way to show they were slighted is to dominate and blow them out. If it's close or heaven forbid lose -- then they...

Not impressed with him coming in, meeting with the team and telling everyone to hit the portal and his son was going to be the QB. I would say he is off to a bad start - we will see how this goes...

Great article!! He will probably win some type of award for jounalism for it !

Went with a B. I would go with an A for the defense and a C+ for the offense. I thought we could do a lot better on offense and sometimes we were outcoached. Not sure about the OC. Objectively, most services had this team pegged with around 7 wins so they were slightly better than advertised.

Plus you should see a pretty spirited battle for the WR positions for next year as Allen and Autman-Bell could both be fighting for time with the WR's that closed out strong vs. Wisconsin. I expect the WR's will be better next year!!

that's true, of course!! But you can see how much tougher it is for teams to stop BOTH the run and pass than it is to just stuff 10 guys in the box to take away the run!!

LOL -- I hate that - but didn't it seem to you we were a little better than we have in the past with that?? I could not stand QB Morgan running all over the backfield changing the play with seconds left on the playclock?? It looked absolutely ridiculous.

I think you might see the Gophers throw a bit more, but Fleck still loves to run and I do not think he will change this offense too much. The most important thing about dealing with Big Ten defenses is you have to do a bit of both because they will try to take away something that is working and...
