Completely unrelated, but looking at the top recruits list, 6 of the top 26 HS recruits on that list are from the DMV area. Add in the UnderArmour money (which I guess is drying up now), and how in the bleep is Maryland never that good? Talk about doing less with more.

Both OL and DL were the biggest whiffs, IMO. No shocker that this Gopher squad was pretty easily pushed around at the line of scrimmage. I think it was Ryan Burns that threw out ideas regarding how they need to re-think transfers. One suggestion was going with fewer, but more impactful. Also...

Just looked up his stats. He shoots 48% and 47% from the FT line the two years he's here. Then leaves, and shoots 58% last year and 79% this year. While a much smaller sample size, he has hit 43/54 free throws this year, which is a lot of attempts in 7 games. WTF.

I would agree with others in that this raises their floor. Not sure I see Fitz as a guy that will push them into the playoff discussion, however. A perfectly cromulent hire. Maybe I'm wrong, but Fitz doesn't strike me as a guy that will be overly adept at dealing with the "new" college...

P4 QB performances against MN: Player Yards/game average (MN game removed) Yards against MN TD/INT (MN game removed) TD/INT against MN Completion % (MN game removed) Completion % against MN Bold = MN defense performed worse than average (opposing QB outperformed average) No Bold = Opposing QB...

Did you watch the Hard Knocks where they followed the Giants in the offseason. Woof. Both Daboll and their GM looked like total morons who had no idea what was going on. Dude could barely string two credible sentences together.

PJ hasn’t used all of his allotment of coaching salaries for a couple years now. He had enough money to pay a credible DC (especially with him cheapening out at a number of positions) and instead he hired Collins. He is also the one negotiating his contract. If he wanted to reduce his salary or...

Not a smart thing to publicly say, but he’s not wrong.

I’m more concerned with thinking JJM was good enough to go “all in” with the roster/salary cap situation. QBs are a crap shoot, but you probably need to figure out what you have before thinking you’re a contender. Of course, Kwesi knows that if JJM busts, he’s probably canned anyway, so to him...

Not playing JJM in the preseason seemed moronic at the time and now with hindsight looks even worse. Dude needs live reps more than anything. And they sat him for what reason? So he didn’t get hurt again? The way KOC has handled him and the QB position this year has been odd. Dude averaged...

All name team if nothing else.

This D is not without talent except at maybe the CB position. It is grossly underperforming.

525 yards allowed to Northwestern. Once again, the Gopher defense makes the opposing QB look like Payton Manning in his prime. Unbelievable.

So getting whooped in the surrender whites multiple times wasn't enough? Just keep going to the well...

I’m not excusing the drops. But does it get into the receivers heads when JJM is airmailing throws left and right, or does his best Athan impersonation and can only throw a 100mph fastball, no matter the situation? The drops have noticeably gone up while JJM is the QB.

The quality of the Rose Bowl isn't very different from many, many college stadiums. Not having a traditional indoor concourse really reduces the clogging that always happens in those. The tunnels into the seating area are really narrow, however, which would probably be problematic when the...

FIFY

IIRC, they offered that a bit later after initial renewals were sent out. I'm a procrastinator, so I don't renew right away. I saw the free ticket promotion come though, so that properly motivated me enough to renew at that point. In regards to the schedule - really wish we played Michigan this...

As far as ratings go, our 6th-highest rated recruit at the moment, so apparently a pretty big get. 3 of our top 6 recruits are OL. Too bad OL is one of the positions where freshman generally aren't able to step in immediately, as help is needed!

I can confirm that the MSU fan sitting in front of us on Saturday did his part in the U obtaining the #5 ranking. Heavy flow of Miller Lites, and what do ya know? Come the third quarter he got really mouthy and started yelling at everything. His wife kept on trying to pull him down while...
