    Scoggins: Not a lot to get excited about over ‘new’ Gophers offense

    Not only did they suck - they were forcing an offensive philosophy that clearly doesn’t work and is eye-gouging to watch. I read it somewhere else and will try to paraphrase here. The B1G west is painful and has been horrendous forever. But most teams are like a drunken good time with a...

    The inability to throw downfield

    Have to be able to throw the ball. Disgusting product to watch and one that leads to losses if you can’t. Way more important than rushing. Why would any legit WR want to come to MN? What has this program shown in terms of highlighting WR talent? But that isn’t the biggest issue - biggest...

    Why are we surprised?

    Finding ways to lose is not a year after year thing - it’s decade after decade. This is a poverty program of the highest order. Those thinking some of the in-game bounces were 50-50 we just didn’t get don’t understand Gopher FB math. Those bounces are always 95-5 against helping us. It’s...

    ***OFFICIAL NORTH CAROLINA AT MINNESOTA 2024 SEASON OPENER IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Pathetic. More Gophers program. Seems to be baked into the marrow. Completely helpless on offense - full on buffoonery. Not fun to watch and no reason for optimism. Pathetic.

    Jah Joyner vows to end Gophers' double-digit sack drought

    Insane how bad our pass rush has been for so long. Hopefully Jah can hit that number this year!

    CBS: Winners and losers from college basketball's 2024 transfer portal cycle (Loser: Minnesota gets wiped out)

    Or even just competence. It was transparently a bad hire at the time it was made and we were told to have patience. Now it is years later and the team is in an as bad or worse place then when the coach took over, partly due to coaching decisions. Don't hire a dude for a legit P5 job that has a...

    Season 4 of The Comparable 4 will return Dec. 1, 2024 (about a month into next season)

    Ok then we’re all agreed it’s settled and the dude needs to go? I mean it’s cute to be dismissive as if we’re all hive-minding all these threads but I was under the impression this guy had sincere advocates. As said before, I don’t know the X’s and O’s for basketball well enough to be an...

    Season 4 of The Comparable 4 will return Dec. 1, 2024 (about a month into next season)

    I don’t really follow Gophs BBall as closely as football but always tune in when I can. Why is there any discussion of whether Ben Johnson is a competent coach if these are real numbers - 19-51 vs. Power 6 (27.1%), no NCAA appearances? This is clown show stuff. What are the other P6...

    I’m Proud of Our Team

    Wild that Gophs fans are being coached to have more patience.

    Simoni Lawrence retires from CFL after 11 year career

    Dude was very fast as an LB. Always rooted for him and glad he found success up north.

    I’m Proud of Our Team

    I mean I get it but this is the aw shucks nice hustle cloud that has hung over this program for a long time while we still find ways to lose. Lose to Purdue - I don’t care. But then if this type of game is indicative of something, we should get at least occasional wins over teams like IA and WI...

    Gophers 2024 Season Preview Using Sagarin 2023 Year-End Data

    West was historically bad even for West standards. Nothing in Gophers history indicates we should expect to get surprise wins but lots indicates we should expect to get surprise losses. Still have to hope.

    Ben Johnson is a Disaster

    This program is full of woulda coulda shouldas to their core. Win the game for a change and this has value. Stop being the little brother in every interaction.

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT PENN ST IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    We didn’t though. We lost. As we find ways to continually do against our primary rivals. Nice to beat Penn St. but beat a ranked team and/or our rivals to garner any real traction.

    Enjoying Gopher Basketball

    Those late game sequences were so classically depressing gophers basketball. It was completely predictable that we would find a way once again to lose in a situation like that and we did. I can’t agree that it’s fun to watch losses that are just reverberations of the marrow of this program -...

    This guy is such a clown.

    Does PJ Fleck run his running backs into the ground?

    Running a dude 30+ times game in, game out is not the right thing to do and almost guarantees they will miss time due to injury. You have to reduce that load - doesn’t matter if it goes to other backs or to passes but the per-game volume has been way too much.

    Jerry Kill

    His health status is irrelevant - this dude is unhinged, uncool, and, dare I say, un-classy. Why anyone would give this cat a job is beyond understanding.
