Wasn’t that the Sanford year as OCq, but we ran him off

I doubt PJ goes that transfer heavy again,vunless they do something significantly different in their evaluations. Too many guys who either didn't live up to expectations or didn't play at all.

Bob, you beat me to the reply. Unfortunately, you are temporarily forgot the first rule on this board. NIL is he only way to get players to get better, and we will never have enough as others, so there is no hope (sigh). Many forget all the challenges faced in the past with cheating...

in that case, the boosters are going to lose. Fitz at best gets MSU to middle of the B10. Smith would probably have gotten them there if given the chance. I don't think Fitz's "NW cred/schtick" will go well at MSU. For a school digging out from multiple scandals, why not bring in a guy who...

agree with this. Fitz's NW "golden boy" status won't mean much at MSU. if he doesn't complete with Michigan, he will get bounced also. I thought Jon Smith was a good hire would have done better and got at least another year to get his own players rolling

Go back 5 years, which of the following would you find more preposterous? Indiana is UNDEFEATED, going into B10 title gam and nobody questions if they are a worthy top seed in CFB playoff Vanderbilt being in the upper class of the mighty SEC a 5-star QB decommits from Georgia (yawn).... to...

I rest my case

not to worry, I've been told (scolded) by several folks on here that there is ZERO chance the Drake will leave for more money.

Offer more positions of need or high attrition a local RB MR Football candidates should be automatically offered, no matter how many you think you have

how much $$$ won't matter if the guy making the decisions screws up. we are paying 2 OL who are terrible, along with other transfers that can't/don't play.

PJ is blinded by his nepotism OC/DC hires. He has openly discussed his love for Collins being a loyal servant for so long. best we can hope is Smith gets booted at MSU and Rossi is willing to return

We are doomed https://www.jsonline.com/story/sports/college/uw/2025/11/22/wisconsin-football-win-illinois-luke-fickell-reactions/87430026007/

as will most other teams

I think the changes with transfer era, i turns into a need for better roster management. We can't afford to go Portal shopping every year. Eventually we will wind up following the Ben Johnson annual dumpster dive to fill a roster. No longer can you commit 25% of the roster to RS guys who...

I don't disagree on $$ being a factor, but probably not the only factor. I imagine a kid like Daniels was hoping all along to go to tOSU. They may not have been sure he was ready and didn't want to commit a roster spot for a Fr development prospect. Once he showed he could play at P4/B10...

I would guess many of the players at NDSU/SDSU were ignored by UMN

and all subsequent years

You don’t know how fundraising works. Most of those “big shots” have no affiliation with UMN and probably don’t give a rip about college football

Simon is co-OC already. Why doesn’t he fix it now?

YES. this was #2 thing that I noticed after the margin of win. A new era has begun
