My freshman year was 1994. Season tickets were free at the front desk of Territorial Hall for the Air Whacker era. I still foolishly squandered $18* for the season tickets. Big fan ever since. * Footnote - back then they required you to purchase two season tickets at a time, so I had to fork...

Former season ticket holder here, a longtime passionate fan. We had tickets in the dome and then in the new stadium. We loved it. Our daughter attended games in the womb and then for her first few years until too big to sit on a lap. When they more than doubled season ticket prices six or seven...

De'Vondre Campbell has been playing exceptional for the Packers this season. Another former Gopher who did well in Atlanta, bounced to Arizona, and now is in Green Bay: https://www.si.com/nfl/packers/news/packers-defensive-coordinator-joe-barry-less-reliant-on-dime-package

I would be happy to see Bryce Williams get the starting nod. Call me crazy.

So, uhhh, I went to college with a guy that got scurvy in the late 90's. He worked at a Taco Bell all summer and ate nothing but their food. After the doctor diagnosed him with scurvy, he told him that one orange would have kept him from getting it. That's a 19yr old guy for you - completely...

Tim Brewster recruited a lot of highly touted players, at least highly touted by UofM standards. He couldn't coach them worth a darn. What the Jerry Kills and PJ Flecks of the world can do is take the lower tier guys and coach them up into better players. They have an infectious attitude. A guy...

I feel like Sandord and Fleck have watched Rocky II once too many times. Mick had Rocky fighting as a righty until one of the final rounds. Don’t hold back, just give what you got Tanner.

Uh, it wasn't the players or Pitino. I turned on the game at the start of the second half. My fault. I will do better the next time... Carry on.

I wasn't active on this forum back then, but I thought that Leach made sense. At the time, I listened to what Maturi said about making a splash with a big name coach. Some of you might even remember that Harbaugh's name was even bantered around in the newspaper at the time. Phew!

You're right. We will have transfers. I was merely referring to that much QB talent and depth. Morgan had a dream year in 2019 and then fluttered in 2020. Who really knows what we have in Annexstad, but it's not at the same level as Mertz and Coan. I do hope that PJ has a true QB competition...

I wish that we had that problem, where we had so many talented QBs that some of them felt compelled to transfer to other top football programs...

Johnny Walker's goal was great. Kuddos to the Sun Devils for playing so hard and giving the Gophers a run for their money. After we went up 2-0, I was feeling pretty comfortable. Then Arizona rattled off three in a row to take the lead and I'll admit to thinking that we had lost the momentum...

My guess is that nobody will knock us out of the top spot for at least several weeks :giggle:

Sooooo.....expect 5-6 inches of snow and windy?

Still a great ending

True, but in defense of the hometown team, we have had a pretty good streak of quality coaches. Glen Mason got it started, Brewster was the blip, but then Kill transformed us into a team that wouldn't lose to DII schools. Claeys and Fleck both inherited good teams that weren't coming off of...

Totally agree. I think that a lot of fans feel cheated in some way, but most people know that Ohio State is the best team to represent the East. It makes sense, and luckily the Big Ten wasn't so rigid that they couldn't admit that a change needed to be made to the rules.

A_Slab_of_Bacon beat me to it. The 2020 season has been an asterisk season from the start. There are many ways that the Big Ten could have handled this better. One additional way would have been to flatly state that with all the craziness of covid and the muffed start, they reserved the right to...

A fair point. I probably shouldn't have stretched Purdue up there, but did toss in a qualifier by putting maybe in italics! Great analysis. Numbers never lie.

As is always the case in the absence of strong leadership, lower level leaders are forced into action which can lead to bigger problems. The NCAA could take control of the reins in college sports to control costs, promote as many sports as possible, and help ensure equity between genders...
