    New DL: Omonode.

    the next Dyron Russ or more recently Steve Richardson?. I'll never forget the year after Russ graduated, it was the fifth game of the 2000 season, just after we beat tOSU. We were 3-1 in the B1G (we lost to Purdue, who had some clown named Drew Brees at QB - I went down to that game to see him...

    Hold out!! Tennessee QB Nico Iamaleava did not attend Tennessee spring practice today. He’s been in conversations with Tennessee about a new contract.

    A very quick and unscientific check of the "source" of this information should put this to rest. According to the company that owns them: "For those not familiar with Old Row Sports, they’ve been compared to other male dominated sites like Total Frat Move and Bro Bible, among others." and...

    Hold out!! Tennessee QB Nico Iamaleava did not attend Tennessee spring practice today. He’s been in conversations with Tennessee about a new contract.

    I agree that this is unlikely to have come from him or his family. I know nothing about this kid and his family, but according to your post, are you not familiar with the Ball family of the NBA? Yes, there are people whose behavior goes way off the beaten path and who are convinced they are...

    The Athletic: Big Ten post-spring QB outlook

    Not young. His experience was a huge help. He handled an inconsistent line well, mostly by not panicking and getting rid of the ball. He learned that over four years in a program that developed him. Developing QBs has not been a hallmark of the Fleck era. Or the Kill Era. Or the Brewster Era.

    The Athletic: Big Ten post-spring QB outlook

    Hard to be a good QB, particularly when you're young, when you're running for your life the whole game, or the opposing team does not need to respect the run game

    3 Potential Landing Spots for Notre Dame Quarterback Steve Angeli (2. Minnesota or Purdue)

    Backup? Backup? We don't need no stinking backup.

    Minnesota quarterback Zach Pyron has entered the transfer portal as a grad transfer, @On3sports has learned.

    Year 1 was rough, but PJ picked Rhoda to start the season. After the first three games, Rhoda went to shit, but Fleck rode him for another nearly 3 games of putrid big ten play before putting in Croft in the MSU game. He then did not take Croft out of the starting role, even though he should...

    Music & NIL

    Two things that OSU has that Minnesota doesn't: 1) A desire to compete in sports vs. downplay sports 2) An administration willing to take steps to put something like this together. The faculty would riot. One thing that Minnesota has that OSU doesn't: 1) an AD that is as charismatic as drying...

    oops -- wrong forum

    This thread would like to pause to remember the Gopherholer that continues to bring joy to the board 15+ years after it started.

    College basketball’s most valuable teams (15. Minn $164M).

    It makes more sense if you consider the approach. "The numbers are the product of a regular study conducted by Brewer, who begins his research with a simple question: What would these teams be worth if they could be bought and sold like a pro sports team? He answers it by studying revenues...

    Bad Choices Department: Tulane quarterback arrested for possession of a stolen car, suspended

    One of the places I lived, same thing My point is, no matter what he did, there may be a reason that has nothing to do with the truck he had being stolen. He may be a knucklehead, but he may have made a mistake vs. committed a crime. Whatever the case, we'll know the outcome on this sooner v...

    Bad Choices Department: Tulane quarterback arrested for possession of a stolen car, suspended

    Not saying that's ok, but that's a far smaller transgression than stealing a car. Maybe we should not jump to conclusions about information on the interwebs and let the legal process play out? Not that the legal process in this country is about right or wrong, but more about which lawyer can...

    but that ignores the big "-" who is in charge. Motzko builds good rosters, and turtles when it matters. That was his MO at Jan Brady U, it is still his MO today.

    Dane Mizutani: Gophers need Niko Medved to channel his inner P.J. Fleck

    Ok. So I don't agree with you, so I suck. Fleck has done a decent job, but he is not the second coming of Nick Saban. Fleck is not going to be, nor should he be fired, I've been clear that I agree with that. Am I waiting for the other shoe to drop? No. I'm fairly certain that 2019 and 2023 are...

    Dane Mizutani: Gophers need Niko Medved to channel his inner P.J. Fleck

    Flecktites. Variation of -ites: The highly vocal group of fans who became fans in 2017 who think any statement about Fleck's performance that does not speak glowingly of his name and recognize his absolute greatness by standing and cheering loudly when he walks in the room are "agitators,"...

    Dane Mizutani: Gophers need Niko Medved to channel his inner P.J. Fleck

    So when PJ says, "I'm not for everyone," does he need to grow up? The Flecktites need to let go of the belief that PJ is the only coach who cares about his players. That belief is patently ridiculous. Are there coaches with "shitty public personas?" Absolutely. Are they the majority? No. I...
