    Brevyn Spann-Ford Senior Bowl measurements

    I thought the Gophers used poorly this year and had a QB that had no touch on a ball. Instead tried to throw it through the receivers. I think he will have a really great NFL career.

    Logan Fife de-commits

    The rule should be like a contract. Once your signed your commitment is for one year. If you don’t compete in bowl game you give back a percentage of your NIL money. Sitting out a year is still the best way to stabilize things.

    Not good enough for NFL but good enough for one more pay day!

    At first I couldn't figure out why a lot of these guys are entering the portal so late in their career. Some are doing it to better their NFL options. Some are top dogs where they are at. However, I think a lot of it is because they are a fringe players in the overall picture. Probably never...

    The way the NIL/Transfer Portal is administered has ruined bowl games

    I read that 15 Ohio State players entered the portal and nine others sat out the bowl game. Then Missouri acted like they had pulled the upset of the century. Not at all the same team that Ohio State had during the season. Missouri invited players who were in the transfer portal to still...

    Has AK landed with a new team?

    That’s one goofy game that I will put on the coaches as much as players. So could go with the losses then. We all see the games. Especially at QB back to Morgan & Mo days. They should have been out of the game long ago but kept them in late. I have never seen under Fleck multiple QBs...

    Has AK landed with a new team?

    I’ve never understood his philosophy of keeping starters in during a blowout for or against us. It is a little different than High School when you put subs in. I suppose in some cases he is trying not to burn a redshirt year. However, that is easy to keep track of.

    Just hire a Defensive Coordinator

    I’ve seen that happen in the past. The coach lies to the kid fully knowing he is leaving after signing day.

    Just hire a Defensive Coordinator

    I just can't figure out why they wouldn't want a Defensive Cor. in place. A pretty important time for kids to know who they will be working for.

    Just hire a Defensive Coordinator

    Might stop some of these players flipping or some to commit if they knew who the Def. Coordinator was???

    This is Lunacy

    I agree ... the day of a good young coach developing players that will ball out when they are juniors and seniors is over. As soon as they get good they are going in the portal because they will follow the NIL money.

    Fleck Statement on Rossi

    I have no problem seeing that Michigan State has many more resources than Minnesota. They had boosters who just paid off something like 80 million from the old coach who got fired. Those same boosters most likely provide deeper money for NIL than Minnesota has. Look how many defensive...

    Zach Evans to Enter the Portal

    Some kids like to be at a smaller college. I personally know several D I athletes and they basically say that when you sign on with a D I program that they basically own you year round. Another rejected all the D I offers and took a scholarship at a D II school not too far from home so he...

    NLI - NIL

    1000% is better than 100% pretty impressive stats at a higher level of HS football.

    NLI - NIL

    I just noticed something tonight when reading an article. We use the same letters for National Letter of Intent (NLI) as Name Image and Likeness (NIL). Just thought it was ironic! When is the early signing day? Wonder if any big NIL offers will lure our high school QB. 55 TDs should be...

    SEC vs B1G in the Bowl Games

    Most bowl games are in the south or southwest part of country. Gives a home field advantage to most SEC schools.

    I don’t understand why Ohio State is not being considered when their only loss is to Michigan?

    Fleck Post Game - Wow Was This A Shot.

    I am retired but spent 40 years as a head high school coach of various high school sports. I am not a fan of calling out players in public. The reference to "2 yards" is not really a fair comparison because after the fumble he didn't get to carry the ball anymore. Who knows ... maybe he...

    2023 MN High School Football season

    Question : Mankato West seems to be one of the best teams in the state every year but seldom here of many DI players coming out of there. Maybe there has been and I just didn't catch it.
