Beanie Bishop with a punt return for a TD.

It's a bowl game; the normal rules don't apply. . Fleck always pulls out a trick play, fake kick for a PAT, etc. And many other teams do, too, which is part of the fun of bowl season. I doubt Fleck would call that play in the first quarter during the regular season.

What? I sure hope he looks way better than the other Gopher QBs. As I started reading that sentence I thought you were going to say "... what if Brosmer sucks." Light it up, Max!

Too far

There are a thousand players in the portal. None of their coaches wanted them?

Can't argue with where they have us (looking longer term), but there are a number of teams listed above is that are in our same situation or worse.

When they established the early signing date a few years ago, I think that briefly helped us in this regard. The helmet schools didn't necessarily worry about the early date at first. If they swooped in late but didn't give a concrete offer before the first signing day, we could say, "See, they...

Both the Auggies' men and women have been pretty good over the past few year, but both were down last year and both appear to be way down this year. Former U women's assistant Ted Riverso is the women's coach, and Bakary Konate is listed as an assistant for the men, although he has no bio on the...

This one hurts, but at least Fleck has proven the ability to find good RBs (Tyler notwithstanding), and our run-heavy attach should be attractive to some good ones.

In fact, Gopher basketball ranked in the top 10 in the nation in attendance almost every year between 1972 and 1984, including #1 in 1975. It started dropping a bit after the scandal in 1986 and with the renovation cutting seating in the early 1990s. (Up to 1977, the source below only showed the...

No, Zack was a true freshman starting a head of Morgan, who was a redshirt freshman.

I couldn't disagree more. We can talk all we want about bringing in a QB "to compete." But transfer QBs don't choose a new school to compete -- especially those with one year left, like the one we offered from New Hampshire. Heck, maybe Fleck even told Athan he was bringing someone in to...

Yes, of course.

I lived through the 1982 season and never thought of it in comparison to this year. 1982 felt way worse. Start with records (3-8, 1-8). Continue with giving Northwestern their first Big Ten win since 1977. I may be thinking '82 was worse simply because I now know what followed, and that has been...

This seems to happen frequently. Why would Allen agree to that? What did he get out of it?

I saw him as I was going through this and I, too, looked up his stats to see how he's been doing. Not sure what happened this year, but even last year there were nine players with more receptions than him. I wonder if he would've fit in better here.

Shhh ... this is a secret; I don't want him to know.

I've been wondering how we got here. You would think the sweet 2019 season would've jump-started recruiting. I looked at the two classes that followed 2019 -- first, because they should've been really nice classes and second, because many or most should be contributing by now. They're basically...

SOME people here talk about that. Not many.

Fleck whiffing on almost every portal player he brought in this year is a big part of the problem.
