We've had two from Michigan.

Hiring a person specifically to lead NIL is a good step, but the fact that he's coming from compliance dampens my enthusiasm. They need a fundraiser. I know, I know -- the school can't raise its own money for this. But they can reach out to donors and "help" them understand the process and how...

I read in the Strib a while back that he is, indeed, a mailman now.

I heard that, too, and also heard him say the same thing later with the Skor North guys, when he added that the source was Mike Grimm. He also said that time he's not sure it's true.

Virginia needs to fire him so he feels desperate to come here.

This used to be a pet peeve of mine. If someone wanted to go somewhere else and use the Gophers as a fallback option if it didn't work out, screw 'em. But the easy transfer rules and free agency aspect of college sports have changed everything. I now expect every player to leave a program before...

It's not you and me who are going to move the needle. It's people who don't have to worry about sending their kid to college. I do wonder who the members are, though. Members of what? The Dunkers, I guess?

The last time Brenda left a job after one year she stayed at the next one for 21 years ... and counting.

Just because we haven't hired the right coach the past few chances doesn't mean we can't do it right next time or we should stop trying. Both Pitino and Johnson were ridiculous reaches for a Big Ten program. We're one competent, experienced coach away from becoming relevant. We need the will and...

In fairness, one of these programs is on the Titanic while the other, comparatively speaking, is on the Love Boat. The transfers on the defensive side make me nervous, but we've already brought in players this transfer season who many thought would -- or could -- play ahead of these two.

Unpopular opinion: I hope he stays, too. Not everyone needs to be a star, or even a starter, as long as he's okay with that and keeps working on his game.

Why am I not surprised that as soon as a couple Gophers get a nice shoutout from a teammate some people here feel the need to crap on them?

I haven't seen anything negative but if it's out there, I'd bet 99% of it is not from Gopher fans. In my experience, casual Minnesota sports fans who don't follow teams closely are mostly clueless when trying to talk seriously about a team, and that's what you get on Twitter. I've learned not to...

This was my first thought, too.

The pipeline from Lakeville is buried deep below Minneapolis and doesn't pop up above ground until it hits Madison.

And Phillip Howard

Officially, Battle has six turnovers but it feels more like 10.

You have no idea how bad 1983 was. If the the term "power 5" was around back then, we were the worst -- by far. Going to four wins the next year seemed like a miracle. In 1985, almost beating #1 Oklahoma, going to-to-toe with Ohio State (one of the few times we've sold out when it we weren't...

Do all these words mean that Gopher season ticket holders won't get presale, like we have in the past?

With Beyonce in concert at the stadium in July you just might see her do the Gopher next fall.
