Don't agree. He was equivalent or more so in hucksterism as Fleck. His gee whiz charlie brown good ole' Jer shtick was transparent. And then he played an even more boring brand of football, which is bonkers that that is even possible. Still rooted to succeed because Gophers but his likability...

MN - 16 PU - 14

For so long, the identity of the program has tried to be running the football, and we called plays accordingly. It is completely intuitive then that defenses would start to bet on the run, and play heavy in the box. The response to that HAS to be passing the football, though our QBs, OL, and...

The Kill/Claeys/Leidner term was a disaster. Few if any meaningful wins and extremely boring and often sloppy football. PJ is a bit of a ham but at least it comes to him honestly. Kill/Claeys presented as aw shucks Charlie Brown shuffle footed good ole boys that, when shown, were actually petty...

I am fine losing a random game to a MAC program if we were consistently beating rivals and appearing in championship games. But this program does not do that, and it finds ways to lose games it should win. I don’t know man - I agree that there are still winnable games and other teams also have...

COs offense also poor. The fact they have a mobile QB is my biggest fear. MN - 23 CO - 16

It has worked and it has failed. It is very very predictable and is less effective against B1G opponents than non-con. At least the way we’ve used it. Is the wildcat more effective than just running out a jumbo package with Morgan under center? I don’t know but the current iteration of the...

I don't know why Kill/Claeys are in discussion but, despite 8-9 wins, the teams they coached never seemed dangerous (and often seemed incompetent), and that played out by never beating our rivals and by never beating a team that finished the season ranked. Their tenure was not successful. The...

I don’t think this is accurate. The drop from Ibrahim to Potts/Wiley is substantial. what would have been 4 yard runs will be 2 yard runs and that is a major impact for an offense that seems like it will need to rely on consistent drives as opposed to explosive plays.

Our linebackers are a general weakness against any competition, but we knew that coming into the season. But the DLine play was abysmal and worse than expected. OSU or not you have to generate more QB pressure than that. Really bad. I’m hopeful some things click and the DLine is able to dial it...

Lived in Louisville for 2.5 years (right outside Boulder) and in Denver for 4. If you want a casual gameday experience, stay closer than Denver just to make travel easier. But Boulder is not that cool. Life here is crowded, and that includes not just the streets but the major trails like...

NW (Kellogg), Michigan (Ross), Indiana (Kelley), and WI are the only B1G comparable business schools, and even then I would put Carlson above all but Kellogg and Ross. This is because outside of a top-10 school, there is a lot of economic regionalism that drives student success. MNs economy...

Same ranking. The one additional callout I would make is MarQuies Gray was the single most dynamic player I have seen in a Gophers uniform in the last 20+ years, including all skill positions. If he were in consideration, I would drop him in at 4 and drop the others down a notch.

Egad guys - this place can suck, huh? Please try not to resort to snide attacks in your responses. Super uncool and not needed. You were wondering if he could be Leidner 2.0 and said probably not given Leidner’s stats. It read as a statement on both QBs ability. If your post was simply to bring...

Take it up with the cat who said Jacob was unlikely to be able to reach Leidner levels of play. Will close again the same way I have with every post - welcome aboard Jacob! Think you will be a great addition!

This is cringe man. I've used my words accurately. I know you don't agree but poor faith to spiral into personal attacks. And I agree 6x6 - run away from here recruits! It's not even a pleasant place to be as a fan - can't imagine it's a nice experience for a player. Again - welcome aboard...

I can't follow your thought process mate. It genuinely doesn't make sense. For me, Mitch was not a good QB and should not be remembered as one. RememberMurr brought up Leidner in an early post and said Knuth was unlikely to be able to play at the same level. I disagree. Again - welcome aboard...

C'mon dawg is everything just pulling teeth here? Super unpleasant. Hyperbole does not = false/wrong. Again - welcome aboard Jacob! Excited for your addition to the team!

You did dude. It's not useful to get caught up in paraphrasing and "deify" was hyperbole even if accurate. A cleaner summary is that you believe Leidner was a good QB based off his career stats, and that it is unlikely a recent commit could achieve the same level of play. Others believe he was...
