Beggars can’t be choosers. What are the possibilities? What do you want/don’t want (within reason)?

Hello all, I used to be pretty active here, but life, career, and several moves got in the way. Anyhoo- I now live in Phoenix and am going to bring my son to the bowl game. I see the ticket office has some points based system and "Should demand for a specific seating level exceed the...

Hello Black Friday all! A few weeks back, before the Penn State game, I posted an open ended question and asked “this is the biggest game since when?” This week, I’d like to pose the same question. I personally don’t know. I’m 40 and this week’s game is the biggest of my lifetime. Thanks

Hello all, I used to be a regular here, but then life got in the way. Moved out of the country, kids, work, etc. I wish I could say that I still follow the program as well as I used to, but I just don’t. I woke up today, waiting for the game thinking that this was a really big game...

Fleck's style of play Can someone tell me what style of play Fleck and staff will employ? I remember when Brewster was hired he decided (first) to be a spread offense. The problem was that Mason was your classic B10 run 65 times a game, control the clock, throw only when you have to kind of...

It occurred to me that this upcoming coaching search is sort of becoming our Super Bowl. Kind of like the Cleveland Browns owning the top pick in the draft. In both cases: -plenty of speculation of who it should be -plenty of speculation of who it shouldn't -the person selected will be a...

Greetings GH, Its been a long while since I have actually posted. My super secret government commitments took me offline for quite awhile, so I thought I'd check in. I see some recruiting news and that's awesome. Welcome to the future Gophers! Get 'em a helmet and a playbook, quick...

I have been a bad fan of the program over the past couple years, I'll admit it. I did go to today's game today with my son because I had a rare Saturday off. I saw Dan Orseske suited up on the sidelines today and some other guy punting. What happened to him? I remember he booming the ball...

The rule is that you have to say something positive...complete the sentence. I was happy with...our fans reaction to coach Kill's tumble. I would have been embarrassed to hear potshots taken to the coach on a disappointing day for the program.

I spent much of the first quarter searching the sidelines and media guide for Walker Ashley. I asked a few guys in the stands about him, but nobody seemed to know who he was. He was a highly touted local kid who went out there a few years ago to play football for the Trojans. He should be a...

This is a holdover from the end of the Mason era; there was so much negativity at the time I started doing this. The only rule is that you have to say something positive...no negativity here. Complete the sentence. I was happy with... The adjustments made at halftime. We got better as the...

From Shooter's PP column today. — Vikings' 6-foot-8, 350-pound offensive tackle Bryant McKinnie, a University of Miami alumnus, plans to work with 6-8, 350-pound Miami freshman offensive tackle Seantrel Henderson from St. Paul this offseason. "I have some ideas I learned through experience,"...

So, my wife and i were watching Friday Night Lights on Netflix last night. I know its not the greatest thing on TV, but its ok.... Anyways, Mike Leach makes a cameo early in season 4. He goes into this big speech to the main character coach about being a pirate...

I have been watching the board lately and reading everyone's opinion on who would be a bad hire. Then most cite several reasons why these candidates are bad and wouldnt fit here. I'd like to bring up the point that this coaching search is alot like a scratch and dent sale. We're not buying a...

I understand that you need to advertise to pay the bills here, but is there any way we can get that sprint ad on this site to be muted?

Reading Calhoun's wiki page (yes, not verified info). It says that he played at the Air Force Acadamy from 85-88 and was a graduate assistant/assistant coach from 89-94. Then he went to Ohio, Wake Forest, Denver Broncos, and Houston Texans prior to becoming HC of the Falcons in 07. My...

Before i even bring this up, I need to say that I would be happy to see any of the bigger names being thrown around (Leach, Harbaugh, Belotti, Frazier) simply because they represent something new for us and their resumes suggest that they'll do a better job than Brewster.... After watching the...

On a serious note: Thank you Tim Brewster. He came in with high aspirations, but it didnt work out. I liked the positivity and talk of something bigger than mid level bowls and mediocrity. It didnt work out for us or him, but I felt like we were getting his best efforts. I hope he lands...

Say what you want to about Brewster, but I really respect the fact that he's suspended anyone for any game on the roster for doing stupid stuff. Furthermore, he keeps the infraction in house and doesnt throw these guys under the bus. I said the same thing about Mason too. I do feel that we...
