I actually can't wait to see the Buffs play this year as we will finally see if Deion can actually coach. Deion was blessed by the fact that his uber-talented son Shedeur was at his side to help him ascend in the college coaching ranks. In Deions first season of 2020 (Covid year) his Jackson...

The assessments by writers like Fornelli are almost useless at this point in the year because if you read it, you can tell he didn't even spend 30 seconds looking at the Minn roster. He indicates the Drake is the only scholarship QB on the roster. However, as we all know if you took any time at...

Yeah, it's amazing how NIL is a lot like recruiting, if you're not out meeting with and making offers to in-state talent like Wiggins and Groves it kind of makes it hard to land them. I suspect it's similar with the NIL process in that if you are unwilling to invest in the process and sell the...

Yeah, it's a bit interesting in terms of how it went down and you don't know what influence the parents have as well. However, TT might have a whale or two in their fanbase who are willing to write some checks. They had their collective pay a softball transfer from Stanford $1.05M for a...

Well, in the scheme of today's college basketball world, all this really means is that they are renting him for a year. Then the recruiting process starts all over again for year two. Just ask the coach at Baylor.

I'm curious what type of money you think TT will throw at him? First, personally I'm high on the kid and think he has the "potential" to be a really good player. However, now to the facts of how he might be viewed from a national recruiting perspective. This is a kid who played AAU and was on...

Quote from Orono coach Barry Wohler - "Ben Johnson showed zero interest, and it’s unfortunate." I may be wildly off the mark here, but I'm assuming zero interest means he didn't attempt to recruit him. And a second article source if you need it...

https://www.startribune.com/gophers-coach-niko-medved-recruits-minnesota-2025-basketball-prospect-nolan-groves/601330764 If this article is completely factual in that it asserts that Ben never attempted to recruit Groves, (the 2025 Gatorade Player of the Year in Minnesota). It's just another...

The way things are these days with everyone so wrapped up in metrics, I imagine these numbers are what's keeping him from being a four-star. However, if I see his tape and he shows great ball skills and he has a better 40 time, then that can change things as well.

There was that QB commit that now plays for Rutgers.

I think you will see that question answered 4-5 yrs from now. Right now, we are basically on the front end of this new NIL world with some people thinking if they throw enough money at their team they can push them to the top. However, we've seen quite a few examples on the pro sports side where...

I won't get into how much was exactly available last year for Ben when it came to NIL $$. However, I will say it is really surprising that the numbers are that low. The people that have the kind of money that throw down $100K, $250K or $500K are not looking to provide that money out of the...

Hey, I understand as a Gopher sports fan that you're inclined to be more pragmatic and take the wait and see approach. However, I say let people have some hope and excitement around the program and Niko, since there hasn't been much for a while. I have nothing against Ben, but my first thought...

As of Wednesday morning, 1,729 men's Div 1 players had entered the portal, according to cbssports.com.

She won't stay in the portal long, as I'm sure one of the teams that recruited her will quickly pick her up. Johnson was a highly-ranked recruit coming out of Wilmont, Wis., coming in at No. 60 in ESPN's 2024 top-100 rankings. When you're ranked that high there are plenty of teams that will take...

We can always dream. It would be hard not to get excited with a player bringing these types of numbers with him: In Evans last two seasons with the Rams, he started all 36 games for CSU and averaged 10.6 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 3.1 assists per game. Most notably, he shot 44.6 percent from...

She definitely has a line on some money if she if she is forgoing the draft, especially if she has a DNC status in the portal. With the right team positioned for a National Championship run she might be seeing one year check a lot nicer than her Rookie WNBA contract. We know you don't get rich...

I happen to stumble on this online regarding Niko's father Miro Medved. He seems like an interesting guy with unique ties to Slovenia from a business perspective. Here is a short profile...

It's hard to fill in all the details that have to be going on behind the scenes. If Jefferson had been promised a decent amount of playing time by Ben with guys like Parker Fox graduating and then Niko comes in and is straight with him that he has plans to bring in some veteran guys from the...
