Dallas Hayden portal

[Laker]

Word out of Columbus is that Rob Dallas Hayden is going into portal. He has had flashes including 146 yds and 3tds against Maryland. Currently RB3 on TOSU depth chart. Career avg of 5.1ypc. Should the Gophers go after him strong?

No, we have our RB's and have needs in other areas, already 2 transfer commits and 2 incoming freshman. We're strong at 5 RBs with needs elsewhere. They shouldn't even consider it.

Recruit any & every position that betters the team. Remember only dogs are loyal to the hand that feeds them.

Ummm… huh?

 

[Costa Rican Gopher]

Not a position of need, not much playing time to offer, & he's probably not going to come cheap. Better to use our resources elsewhere, imo.

 

[gopherphil]

Imo there’s no chance he comes here. I assume both parties are not interested.

 

[Gophergrandpa]

Prefer to see if Gophs can get Jaxon Howard to come home. Has lots of eligibility left. We have a lot of talent at RB right now.

Give us an update when one of their blue chip QBs or WRs decide to enter the portal.

Or really just about any position other than RB.

You mean to tell me you are not familiar with the famous saying "Only dogs are loyal to the hand that feeds them." I use that on a daily basis

Serious question: Darius Taylor thanked the Dinkytown collective for compensating him. Not just Minnesota but everywhere...don't you think in the discussion to stay or go there almost has to be at least an implied promise or at minimum an assumption of playing time that goes with that money? So even if teams had the money to go after another RB or whatever position with an established higher dollar playmaker in place it would be asking for mutiny in the locker room if you start bringing in known competition for your big knockers.
