    Who else will buy the new NCAA Football game?

    As some of you may know, there will be a new EA Sports NCAA Football game this summer, after 10+ years of the last version. I haven't had gaming console in almost a decade but I will return for this one. Yes, I will buy a PlayStation just to play this game. Yes, I will create a juggernaut...

    What do you miss most about Gopher games at the Metrodome?

    Love it or hate it, it's a Minnesota sports icon and had a distinct feel. I was young when my family had season tickets, but I vaguely remember the entire student section "bouncing" during the 1st down chants.

    Hey guys, I've been in a coma since the 2009 Tubby Final Four team. What's the current state of the union with Minnesota men's basketball?

    I fell into a coma the day after the Tubby Tip-Off in 2009. How's our recruiting? Are we pulling in local kids? What's wrong with the program? This is the last thing I remember about the Gophs. Happy New Year!

    6 years later, are we still pleased with the uniform redesign?

    Quite frankly, I'd prefer an updated reboot of our classic Mason-era unis. I initially liked the 2018 redesign but after watching the bowl game I'm keen on welcoming a revamp. Thoughts?

    Who were your favorite players from the Brewster/Kill eras?

    Since signing day is over and we are almost towards the end of the road, I might as well get a head start on some offseason content. Found myself randomly watching old highlights and I'd be curious to hear your answer. Loved watching Hageman. Da'Jon McKnight is my sleeper pick. Edit: Can't...

    Gophers rumored to be paying $30,000 for Kramer to play in bowl game

    I can't sleep without knowing this answer

    Pump the brakes boys: We transformed our entire offensive identity while adding new coaching and turning over our roster. Hiccups are bound to happen.

    This entire forum needs to go on a collective meditation retreat and seems to have amnesia over what has transpired over the last offseason with regards to roster overhaul, new coaching, and implementing a new offensive philosophy. Until we square away our OC situation and recruit better...

    Any other Gophs fans in Europe? I’m struggling with the time difference

    This will be my first college football season while living in a European time zone. I feel like a ship lost at sea, I need some words of encouragement. Or a beer.

    Y'all think PJ regrets not handing over the OC/play calling reigns to Matt Simon?

    It's really starting to look like Kirk Ciarrocca was riding the wave left by a veteran OL, Bateman, TJ, Rodney Smith & company during the 2019 season. Especially in the passing game - he had two big outside WR's that could give you YAC's and take it to the house on any play. Made his RPO slant...

    Hot take: We're just fine, PJ is doing fine.

    Let me parachute into this board and drop some (seemingly) hot takes: PJ is doing fine. He has built a front 7 and secondary (plus depth) that we haven't seen before We clearly have more talent, size and athleticism across the board than we have at any time in the past. We now have...

    Games like these make me more excited for Kaliakmanis

    Go back and watch all of the broken pocket played today that turned into incomplete passes or less than desirable QB scrambles. Also, and most importantly, the ability to sit in the pocket and sling it downfield when things break down. I like Tanner and the stability he has brought to the U...

    Serious - Is PJ Fleck sick? He looks different.

    Obviously I'm not trying to be a downer here. Great win for the program and the boys today. However, I'm just watching PJ's post game presser and, quite frankly, the guy looks like he has some sort of underlying illness. His face and sunken eyes look markedly different and stand out for a guy...

    Why are we 14th (last) in 2022 B1G recruiting?

    https://247sports.com/Season/2022-Football/CompositeTeamRankings/?Conference=Big-Ten Why are we 14th in 2022 B1G team rankings? Are recruits getting tired of PJ's schtick? Are bad rumors floating around recruiting circles? This just seems weird. We had a lot of national love and momentum...

    Lived overseas during the Pitino era. What went wrong?

    I largely slept through the Richard Pitino era here. The last time I really followed Gophers hoops was the Tubby time. (RIP to the potential GOAT 2009-2010 squad) These are my only memories of the Pitino era: Injuries undersized but talented backcourt recruits not working out Amir Coffey...

    Nnamdi Adim-Madumere - curious why we haven't seen more of him

    Following the news of Cheney's transfer, I was curious about some other interesting prospects that Fleck had pulled in the last few years. Wide Receiver Nnamdi Adim-Madumere is an interesting case: 6'4 235 lbs from Fort Worth, TX He was a high 3* and received serious interest late in the...
