And that's in addition to his Hitler love on this board not long ago and his continued idiocy on the OT Board.Umm, the derogatory statement directed at Bateman was indeed ban worthy. No question.
Thanks man. Totally forgot about Dem's big return at Nebby. The guy has made some clutch catches as well.DD: CAB:
Minnesota also returns:
It's a loss, but so far Minnesota still has two quality B1G receivers, a great 'athlete' in Seth Green, their starting QB, their starting RB, and their entire offensive line from last year.
We're still looking at a top 20 offense, might not be a top 10 offense out of the gate anymore, but it's football, things like this happen.
It hasn’t been mentioned that Fleck just found out this morning, despite the fact that Rashod been in California for a couple weeks while the rest of the team has been doing walkthroughs and holding team meetings, but I guess I’ll try not to read anything into that. It probably doesn’t matter at this point, but there might be more behind the scenes than what’s been made public.
Do we know that Fleck didn't find out until this morning? Fleck's Twitter message said, "This morning, Rashod informed the team..."
To me, that implies that Fleck probably knew about this before this morning, and I would be pretty surprised if Bateman just went to LA without telling PJ why.
We were .500 overall which is what I was referencing. The Gophers can't afford to lose their best player a year early as easily as Kentucky or Duke or St. Tony. Given the # of close games choked away, it's not hard to argue that Coffey alone would have probably meant 4 more wins at least.Tons of teams were hurt more by players leaving early than we were by Coffey leaving early. Plus we were not .500 in conference, more like 8-12 which is better than our 7 year average.
He could certainly get leap frogged by other hung receivers. This is why I believe his reason over Covid concerns is truthful.
I wish Rashod well, and hope he’s selected in the first round. Knowing he would have most likely not played in the probable bowl game lessens the blow a bit. As far as a good decision for him to skip the regular season, I’m dubious. He could certainly get leap frogged by other hung receivers. This is why I believe his reason over Covid concerns is truthful.
Personally if I was a healthy young man of his age I would have minuscule concerns over Covid. But I don’t blame him, most folks out there listening to the mainstream media are not being told/explained the vast differences this virus is doing to folks in particular cohorts is pathetic.
If there is a season, I would expect the Gophers to lean on the OL and go a little more run-heavy. As far as Bateman, I suspect we could see more of this with blue chip players leaving early - covid or not. Top players are already skipping bowl games. The next step is skipping the whole season.
St. Tony to you, Tony Bennett to me. We regularly recruit higher ranked classes than UW and UVA and yet when they lose players they are still miles better than we are. Understood on your regular season record. Your right, we especially can not afford to lose a player. Even when we still have Carr and Oturu we are so poor defensively and in mental toughness that we go 8-12We were .500 overall which is what I was referencing. The Gophers can't afford to lose their best player a year early as easily as Kentucky or Duke or St. Tony. Given the # of close games choked away, it's not hard to argue that Coffey alone would have probably meant 4 more wins at least.
In 2019 Gophs ran on 63% of plays. They lost their top 2 WR and have top 6 OL returning. So yeah, I could see them running the ball more while they figure out the WR rotation.Even MORE run heavy than 110th of 130 teams, based on average PA per game?

Not yet.I lost pretty much all my respect for Bateman today.
What he did is basically unprecedented - skip his junior year and bail on his team to get ready for the draft. And before you tell me how he has nothing to prove and there are millions of dollars involved, I don't see Justin Fields, Trevor Lawrence or any of the other 32 guys on this list projected as 1st round picks who have made this decision.

We'll see - if more were going to opt out, I think they would have done it by now.Not yet.
LOL, I honestly don’t know how that popped there. I’ll fix it.Odd criteria, but OK.
Same agent as TJ and Adam Thielen
Add Micah parsons to the listOk - there are 2.
Justin Fields, Trevor Lawrence and many other players who are ranked higher than Bateman haven’t opted out.
The PAC 12 players are planning to take over a neighborhood in Seattle until their demands are met!Saw this on the news this morning;
PAC-12 Football players threatening boycott this year unless certain conditions met.
'After the University of Oregon, and the rest of the Pac-12, released their condensed 2020 football schedule, players across the conference are raising their concerns. A multischool coalition of college football players are threatening to boycott the season if health and safety protocols are not met, as well as having the league address concerns about fighting racial injustice, according to ESPN.
Players from Oregon, UCLA, Cal and Stanford are at the forefront of the movement. The group plans to release a statement of unity as early as Sunday. However, Pac-12 officials claim to not have heard from the players.'
