I predict that before long we hear that Ohtani is retiring from baseball to pursue a new challenge. Shortly thereafter, he will sign with the Birmingham Squadron in the G League.

What else are they going to do?

And just because someone on GopherHole says it isn't a troll doesn't mean that it's not. Do you know anyone in the athletic department there? Ask them. They delight in the trolling part of it and have back to the "Minnesota is in state recruiting" days. It's not the only reason that they do...

I am convinced that they have enough talent to beat any team in the country if they play their best. I am equally convinced that they lack the discipline, focus and consistency to play at the level long enough to win four games in a row.

I believe that I would have just as much of an idea of what was happening in the game if they replaced him with a toddler speaking Japanese. I only watch with the sound on for a few minutes to remind myself how thankful that I am that he no longer has any involvement in Gopher sports.

They most definitely see this as a troll. That isn't the only reason that they see it as a benefit, but it absolutely plays a part. And they have already done something similar in Chicago. Luke Fickell, Wisconsin trolls Illinois teams with Chicago billboards

And baseball

It's a nice troll. They get to tweak Minnesota with no real risk of reprisal since no one is going to recruit heavily in Madison or see any billboards purchased in Dane County.

Seems logical given that there is also some scuttlebutt that it was Alberts' rep who reached out to A&M rather than the other way around. Not unheard of, but unusual for somebody who has the top job at his alma mater with a high salary and a brand new contract extension through 2031 that he...

Is it as dishonest as you claiming that when you said "spring game" you meant "legitimate spring football public event?"

Goalposts moved again!! We have gone from "all other P5 teams are having spring games" to "it's better (in the opinion of MplsGopher) to have one than not have one." Which is what you should have said in the first place.

You said spring game. As the writer, the burden is on you to convey your meaning to the reader. If you meant open practice or some other type of "legitimate spring football public event," then you should have said that. Now, as you try to save face, you claim to mean any form of public event in...

We are not the only team foregoing a traditional public spring game, he's wrong about that.

Minnesota isn't the only P5 school that won't hold a traditional spring game.

I don't believe that there is any sanctioned tailgating for baseball (or any sport other than football). That said, I have never heard a peep when I have done low key tailgating before baseball games in Lot 37. Don't set up a canopy, blast music or break out the beer bong and you will probably...

Sure there is and volunteering for a Friday slot MEA weekend might make sense for the reasons you stated. The post I was responding to phrased it like a demand. The image of Coyle marching into the Big Ten offices and saying "we will host on MEA Friday and that’s it" made me laugh.
