More than a 1000 do every year. Programs the vindictively yank a scholarship are equally unreliable partners. It would be more prudent to allow the student to return as the search for a replacement costs more money. Call it the economic opportunity cost of being considerate verses being a jerk.

A portal is not a transfer until enrollment at another college. The player therefore has a reserve of options until he exercises that option. And when did it become suspect to be a free agent? The whole point of Alstad was to protect the right to have choice as a college student and not be...

I'll get you a copy of L'Officiel or if you want Soldier of Fortune.

If the SEC has a bylaw that restricts students from transferring to another SEC school, I will use the same phrase that in the Alston case that repeated and repeated and repeated: restraint of trade. How stupid is everyone going to be on this? You cannot collude to deprive someone of a possible...

This has to be one of the earliest big commits in recent memory.

Wiser words could not be said regarding the program. The program needs to evolve, show progress and as all writers know, don't tell the story. Let it show itself to the world. This is what makes the next few years glorious. We might not start off with a clear turnaround. That might be in year...

Just effect. Without the balance sheet and the budget, it really only shows that management made a decision. It does not indicate why.

I'm a cash flow kind of guy. That sounds long term. Since you didn't list assets here, It is really hard to see the whole picture. I could say "Ooo, kind of bigly" but I would be lying.

Didn't the Twins fire a bunch of staff last fall to make their payroll look smaller for potential buyers? I love it when the little guy gets fired just so a number on a napkin looks better for a buyer. They can make it into a Hallmark movie.

Smart. Get it over with now. If you don't ask, you don't get. As long as he doesn't negotiate for see through uniforms, I'm good.

Genius.

Benjamin Lewis Johnson Overview Benjamin Lewis Johnson in 2023 was employed at University of Minnesota and had a reported pay of $2,079,315 according to public records. This pay was 2,475 percent higher than the average and 2,926 percent higher than the median salary in University of Minnesota...

Spaulding, do you have a point here or is everything a reference to someone else's POV? If spottedmuskie wants to make a point to me, fine. Otherwise, be direct. Tell me what you think. Represent yourself. That would be exciting. I hate tracing breadcrumbs to another place and time.

The only way you can defend that position is if the players of Ben Johnson actually had untapped stellar abilities. I watched the games. The group underperformed on some games by sheer unwillingness to perform. I think it related to the old adage, "They pretend to pay me. I pretend to work."

That might be the lowest paid group of assistants in the conference. I won't object to that level of pay for them, yet it makes me wonder why it is so low. In this day and age, that is shockingly inexpensive. I would expect that coaches be compensated better than the players. It makes the U look...

What I want from Niko is a full roster. I would be happy with a full roster of people who can play the game. My next higher goal is winning games without looking like five chairs on the court. I don't have modest expectations. I just start with the basics and move the goal as each are met. It...

I guess there comes a time when you get to say this: that offensive line is full of mini men.

Because most adults in the room know that reconstruction does not happen right away. Process takes time. Medved is expanding the University of Minnesota process. He is pushing that rock uphill everyday.

The NCAA is once again sticking its nose in to regulate what the supreme court clearly stated was collusion to restrain trade. This is another artifice to go around what the court said they ruled against. Pay from commercial sources is not the jurisdiction of the schools. The majority opinion...

Jim should fling his walker at Bobby if they ever meet again.
