    Five years ago today, P.J. Fleck was named Gophers football head coach! What is your favorite football memory since then?!

    This is an easy one for me. Penn State. I had my 14-year-old daughter with me at the game. As soon as the game sealing interception was made, I told her "We are rushing the field. It's going to be insane. Don't let go of me." I still get misty just thinking about it. That is a memory I will...

    Quinn Carroll in the transfer portal

    When I read that, I immediately thought of the five D's of dodgeball. Dodge, Duck, Dip, Dive and Dodge

    Gophers hired Glen Mason 25 years ago today with a salary of $140,000 per year plus incentives

    This article indicates that Glen got a $500,000 per year starting salary. http://m.kusports.com/news/1996/dec/12/gophers_lure_ku/?templates=mobile Or am I misreading something?

    Weird Lincoln Riley Introduction is ... weird ... really weird ...

    Back in my younger days, I ran a number of marathons. Before the races, I had a specific playlist that I would listen to that would get me fired up. Tusk was on that playlist. It still gets my juices flowing. But the undersized pep band version in the Lincoln Riley video was tough to watch and...

    Portal - Potential Incoming players?

    Maybe we can snag Anthony Montero from Eden Prairie. He was Mr. Football in 2017 but chose a full ride to Rice over a walk-on opportunity at Minnesota (smart decision). He's had a pretty good career at Rice and I noticed that he put his name in the transfer portal for his final year of...

    Storm the Field Roll Call!! Who was there and what was your favorite part?

    I’m pretty sure my wife and I saw your family on the field. I turned to her and commented on how seeing the kids faces absolutely filled with joy is what it’s all about. Those memories will last a lifetime.

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT INDIANA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    According to big 10 network’s game finder, it should be on the main Big Ten Network channel for me. Something is screwed up at BTN.

    Anyone else struggling to get their electronic tickets for Illinois game?

    I don't want to jinx it, but I have had a really good experience with the ticket app this season. I have sold tickets and parking for two of my games with absolutely no issues. I've also never had any issues putting my tickets into my "wallet". I'm on an iPhone if that makes any difference. I...

    Gophers v. Illinois preview | Gopherhole

    Thanks. That's one of my pet peeves. It bugs me (probably more than it should) when people don't know what the middle initial on the time zone stands for.

    Required Viewing For Gopher Fans - Fleck on the new contract

    That was an awesome video for so many reasons. I would love to have a coach here similar to the long-tenured greats at other schools that grew to be synonymous with their universities (Ferentz, Bowden, Alvarez, Snyder, etc.).

    We are ranked 20th!!!

    I’m watching some Tuesday night MACtion on ESPN2. They are scrolling this weekend’s football schedule for top 25 teams. It’s fun to see Minnesota in the scroll. :cool:

    Jerry got another HC job!

    I actually wonder if this might be Kill’s swan song as a major college coaching staff member. He and Patterson are very close friends and that’s probably the only reason he was on the staff at TCU in the first place. I just hope he can make it through the season healthy. I’m sure his wife isn’t...

    How many are making the trip to NW?

    I was in Chicago last weekend visiting colleges with my daughter. Otherwise I would seriously consider a day trip. I was playing around on Priceline and put together a package leaving MSP at 7:40 am and returning at 10:50 pm. You would be in Chicago from 9:12 am to 9:15 pm. Just about perfect...

    Iowa-Becky predictions

    Here's the best description I've read yet about Iowa's strategy. It was from a USA Today article.

    A Message for the "One Game at a Time" Posters....

    I agree with the OP. Have you ever bought a lottery ticket when the grand prize amount gets ridiculously high? I have (and only then). And then I sit around with my friends and family and we talk about what would happen if we won. Does that mean we think we are going to win? Absolutely not...

    Cole Kramer

    For the person asking about Cole's senior year stats at EP, I found this. I can't vouch for it's accuracy but it sounds about right. I remember the 19/0 TD to Interception ratio. https://www.maxpreps.com/athlete/cole-kramer/06YFs2rdEea-8KA2nzwbTA/football/stats.htm

    Let's Just Talk Smack and Make Fun of Nebraska Thread

    The best line of the day was delivered by Karl who sits in the row behind me. At one point he said “Nebraska’s defense is good but they’re no Bowling Green.“ we all got a good laugh from that one.

    Trey Potts - UPDATED With Statement from the U

    Put me down for scurvy. I think we need players' parents to supply orange wedges at halftime. Somebody pass around a sign-up sheet.

    I like a breakfast tailgate as much as the next guy, but this is getting old.
