Basically saying the same thing others have said. They generally are positive about everyone but they do have sort of a "code" that allows viewers to read between the lines (2nd Degree Gopher's example of DiNardo expressing the importance of winning "match up" games or personnel battles is a perfect example). Last night's coverage also included comments along the lines of "You can't run a practice this good and not be a contender" (not an exact quote, but another code reveal for where they think the Gophers are). Last night's commentary was positive from top to bottom. They were impressed.
I'm very excited, but in looking at the schedule again and thinking about all the variables, I do think there is a floor of 7-5 or 8-4 with this team. I do think the end record will be better than that floor but it is so hard to predict without knowing things like how Michigan State will follow up their special season, is Wisconsin finally actually dropping off this time, will Iowa head right back to that 9-3 territory and be a big problem, and even knowing at some point all the homer Nebraska chest beating will have to be true some year. Even blind squirrels find nuts. Under Frost I don't THINK it will happen in any given year but there is at least the possibility it will happen some day. What if it is this year?
The good news is you can only control yourself and by all accounts, if this team can stay relatively injury-free, it is going to be a very good Gopher squad with potential to match or even exceed 2019.
