    2024 MN High School Football thread

    Not trying to be rude, but of course there's zero soccer players on this list since it is played in the fall and so is football. I feel like all of the sports you listed below are the ones that cost the most money and require the most travel amongst athletes which can make it harder to play...

    2024 MN High School Football thread

    Our top 2 recruits, Koi Perich (football, basketball, and track & field) and Riley Sunram (football, basketball, and track & field) were both not only three sport athletes, but as you'd imagine excelled in all of the sports they competed in. If you are good schools will find you!

    Baylor coaches shirts: “We pay players”

    A little context for folks not super familiar with Baylor/Big 12. Baylor has been on a recruiting tear as of late and the common theme among the other Texas schools is Baylor is throwing bags of money at them, so they're leaning into the narrative. I personally think it's hilarious and well...

    CFB2025 Online Dynasty (XBOX)

    No worries. Its super easy. Feel free to DM your gamertag once you get the game installed And for anyone on the fence schedule wise--I'm not expecting people to play every day. I'd say realistically it's one game a week, maybe two tops.

    My thought process is we all start somewhere different and whoever they choose to hire gets the job!

    Putting flight training on hold, journeyman Ryan Santoso steps up at kicker for San Antonio Brahmas

    Unfortunately for him an NFL kicker is arguably one of the hardest roster spots in any sport to get

    Gophers legend Greg Eslinger named to College HOF ballot.

    I think it's more that his weight was likely inflated or he couldn't keep it on during the rigors of training camp and the season. Keeping on weight as an NFL OL for many guys is a full time job. Even in AA high school football our coaches bumped almost everyones size up and this is done by...

    Recruiting Hat Trick

    It's unreal how much athletic talent Caledonia has produced in the past 20 years. Must be something in the water!

    Gophers legend Greg Eslinger named to College HOF ballot.

    Only thing that kept Greg from a long NFL career was him being undersized to play OL

    Shama: Roles for U Frosh Koi Perich in 2024 Might Be Multiple

    I am happy with whatever is an alternative returner to what we had last season. Too many unacceptable unforced errors.

    Big Ten Basketball: 5 early breakout candidates for 2024-25 season (Kadyn Betts, Minnesota)

    Not trying to be nitpicking but you saying JOJ or Ihnen couldn't get minutes is a direct contradiction of your next statement. Let's not act like a forward can't play the 2 spot since Carrington couldn't hit water from a boat on offense and he'd also regularly sub in for the 3 spot.

    B10 Coaches talk anonymously about other B10 Coaches.

    I totally agree about IC and Lincoln and I think a key driver to that is the fact that all of our smaller D2 schools compete against us in hockey which cannibalizes our fanbase because MSU/UMD/Bemidji/SCSU have rivalries/hate us in hockey and it bleeds over. Everyone I've ever met that went to a...

    Big Ten Basketball: 5 early breakout candidates for 2024-25 season (Kadyn Betts, Minnesota)

    I really hope he takes another step forward. Was relatively concerning he couldn't earn minutes over Carrington down the stretch.

    B10 Coaches talk anonymously about other B10 Coaches.

    I don't understand the whole "other things to do/pro sports/metro" argument that people use for the Gophers. Other schools in the same situation that have had plenty of athletic success in the 2000's with the same metro environment: University of Washington Miami Stanford USC/UCLA TCU/SMU...
