Thanks to all who chimed in on my question regarding replacing Henderson in the defensive scheme. I thought of some of the same names--particularly Perich--but some of you added to that list. I think it's an important position in the defensive scheme. Henderson wasn't a perfect player, but...

I thought Bryson might have been a candidate to replace Henderson in the defensive set. Who do we currently have on the roster to slot in at that position. The current set of safeties look to be too small to play that particular role.

Is he eligible to play for the baseball team this spring?

I'm old and while what you are describing is the situation now, in the 1970s, a lot of high school graduates went to junior college to actually get credits and not just simply make themselves eligible to enroll in a higher-level program. Community College/Junior College has really changed a lot...

Not that much different than a lot of divorces one reads about where the one spouse says "I love you, but I just can't live with you." I'm not a cynic, but a lot these announcements strike me as "Sorry. Not Sorry." I frankly don't know why some of the players who enter the portal even bother...

Just looked it up. We won every game (4) when Taylor went over 100. Lost 3 of 4 when he was held below 50. 2-1 when he went between 50 and 100. Didn't play against North Carolina. We passed much better this year, but when we didn't run well, we didn't win. That's why I was a bit...

Didn't someone in the national media have us at well below .500?

Gave a B. Brosmer showed the value in having consistent QB play. Not spectacular, but steady and that's been missing a bit. Lots of close games. Won a couple they could have lost and lost a couple they could have won. Lots of wouldas and couldas. I was expecting a bit more out of the...

Remember former NBA star World B. Free, whose nickname was "The Prince of Mid-Air." Well, with my negative vertical jump, I am "The Prince of Middle Earth." I'm guessing no one will be offering me the chance to use up my eligibility. This is all getting way too crazy. NCAA could have gotten...

Go to junior college and play for seven!

We really haven't had great deep threats on the outside since the Bateman/Johnson/Autman-Bell set. While there were more deep balls thrown by Morgan with that group, we still didn't go down the field a whole lot. The deep ball just hasn't been part of Fleck's offensive strategy. He seems to...

Was I the only one here who actually watched part of the Buffalo/Liberty match-up in the Bahamas Bowl? Truly a game for the ages in a 15,000 seat stadium usually used for soccer matches. Buffalo waxed Liberty 26-7. It could have easily been 33-7, but the refs took about 10 minutes to review...

Ah! Youth! Looking back, I can't believe all the crap we got away with then that in no way the youth of today can.

Agree with you and Deusen on the importance of QB play. Whether through the portal or building an internal succession plan (difficult in the NIL/Portal era), above-average--and hopefully more--play at the position is absolutely mandatory to get and stay at the next level. I think Fleck...

I was a grad student in the late-70s/early-80s and the cost of student season tickets were so low that they didn't greatly diminish my alcohol budget so I saw about a dozen games at Memorial. A few more when I was in college north of Riverside and after I had finished my grad school course...

Fleck could have absolutely buried Kill's NMSU team when they came to town a couple of years ago, but he put on the breaks. I suppose one can argue that he had Lindsey throwing late in the Rhode Island game, but the Gophers last score in the Maryland game was a 51-yard run by Darius Taylor on...

That and reward the second-teamers who have put in the same amount of practice time and had sacrificed as much as the regulars during the season. But "Noooooooooooooooo!" Lane had to make a statement.

It looked like from the outset, Kiffin was absolutely determineed to destroy a Duke team that had lost its QB and starting RB to the portal prior to the bowl to somehow vindicate SEC superiority. Why the Mississippi starters were even in the game when they were up by 30+ points in the 4th...

Stay classy Lane!

I think Joyner declared for the draft.
