    Explain it to me like I'm five years old

    It's not like throwing the ball was a gimme last night. I was fine with the decision to run the ball and call a timeout to control the clock. The RB chose the hole, which is a split-second decision. They will talk about it in film review but when big bodies and colliding you run to daylight...

    Scoggins: The Gophers will be sunk in the expanded Big Ten without a better passing game

    It sounds like all we need is a $20M NIL war chest to attract the right players and then the problem is solved... Easy!

    Casey O’Brien needs our help

    My BIL died of brain cancer at the age of 35 leaving behind his wife and four young kids. He had four brain surgeries at Mayo and the UofM, endured chemo, and all kinds of stuff. Eventually the cancer spread and took the rest of him. I understand that insurance can't keep fighting to keep...

    Tailgating Policy

    It would have been funny to see a passed-out fan laying in one of those parking stalls next to a table and chair.

    UNC Attendance

    I know you were half-kidding, but half-serious. I had season tickets from 1994 - 2016 or so, when they tripled the donation cost. I have a LARGE group of friends and acquaintances who love football. I also struggled to find people to go to games when I was up north fishing - Badger games as...

    Mo Ibrahim signs with the Vikings

    It's been a long road for Mo. He went undrafted and then got injured in the first preseason game last year. The Lions cut him and then re-signed him to the practice squad in October. In his first game he only got three carries before he got smoked on a kick return against the Ravens. Players...

    Attendance?

    My freshman year was 1994. Season tickets were free at the front desk of Territorial Hall for the Air Whacker era. I still foolishly squandered $18* for the season tickets. Big fan ever since. * Footnote - back then they required you to purchase two season tickets at a time, so I had to fork...

    Shama: U Treads Water in Football Ticket Sales; attendance will likely be similar and perhaps less than a year ago

    Former season ticket holder here, a longtime passionate fan. We had tickets in the dome and then in the new stadium. We loved it. Our daughter attended games in the womb and then for her first few years until too big to sit on a lap. When they more than doubled season ticket prices six or seven...

    All Things 2021 Gophers in the NFL Thread

    De'Vondre Campbell has been playing exceptional for the Packers this season. Another former Gopher who did well in Atlanta, bounced to Arizona, and now is in Green Bay: https://www.si.com/nfl/packers/news/packers-defensive-coordinator-joe-barry-less-reliant-on-dime-package

    Will the next starting RB please step up?

    I would be happy to see Bryce Williams get the starting nod. Call me crazy.

    Trey Potts - UPDATED With Statement from the U

    So, uhhh, I went to college with a guy that got scurvy in the late 90's. He worked at a Taco Bell all summer and ate nothing but their food. After the doctor diagnosed him with scurvy, he told him that one orange would have kept him from getting it. That's a 19yr old guy for you - completely...

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 2022 Minnesota Football commit Anthony Smith bumped to a four-star ⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Tim Brewster recruited a lot of highly touted players, at least highly touted by UofM standards. He couldn't coach them worth a darn. What the Jerry Kills and PJ Flecks of the world can do is take the lower tier guys and coach them up into better players. They have an infectious attitude. A guy...

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

    I feel like Sandord and Fleck have watched Rocky II once too many times. Mick had Rocky fighting as a righty until one of the final rounds. Don’t hold back, just give what you got Tanner.

    ***OFFICIAL - REAL U OF M (GOPHERS) @ FAUX U OF M (WOLVERINES) - GAME THREAD!!!***

    Uh, it wasn't the players or Pitino. I turned on the game at the start of the second half. My fault. I will do better the next time... Carry on.

    Mike Leach Brought a Decade's Worth of Embarrassment to Mississippi State in Less Than a Year

    I wasn't active on this forum back then, but I thought that Leach made sense. At the time, I listened to what Maturi said about making a splash with a big name coach. Some of you might even remember that Harbaugh's name was even bantered around in the newspaper at the time. Phew!

    Jack Coan transferring to Notre Dame

    You're right. We will have transfers. I was merely referring to that much QB talent and depth. Morgan had a dream year in 2019 and then fluttered in 2020. Who really knows what we have in Annexstad, but it's not at the same level as Mertz and Coan. I do hope that PJ has a true QB competition...

    Jack Coan transferring to Notre Dame

    I wish that we had that problem, where we had so many talented QBs that some of them felt compelled to transfer to other top football programs...

    Arizona State @ Minnesota: 1-3-21 & 1-4-21

    Johnny Walker's goal was great. Kuddos to the Sun Devils for playing so hard and giving the Gophers a run for their money. After we went up 2-0, I was feeling pretty comfortable. Then Arizona rattled off three in a row to take the lead and I'll admit to thinking that we had lost the momentum...

    My guess is that nobody will knock us out of the top spot for at least several weeks :giggle:
