It's mostly just a small group of certain posters that only show up after losses. Half are probably wisky or Iowa fans.The negativity here is off the charts.

Then put some purple on him.FWIW, Smith was on the Gopher senior video released this morning where everyone said what their favorite moment/memory was. I would assume he's gone.

Smith and his advisors must be more confident than I am. Unless he blows up at the combine, he's currently looking like a Day 3 prospect.
I have had the same thought. Scouts know about him, but being at a school with higher visibility (perceived or real) might up his profile.I’m sure he’d be welcomed back if he decided to stay. I think him playing for another school next year is as likely as him playing in the nfl next year.
He can come back to college if the NFL opportunity he's looking for isn't there.Smith and his advisors must be more confident than I am. Unless he blows up at the combine, he's currently looking like a Day 3 prospect.
I'm not sure a hard cap is needed. College football had a hard cap at one point: $0. Some people worked around it.Sad, but very true. Much more likely than us being able to pay him.
College football is S___ until a hard cap is instituted
Not really. There are plenty of blue bloods that have players that aren't going to go on day 1 or 2. Their best players go that early, but other starters are day 3 for them.So he's not good enough to get drafted before the fourth round, but he's so good he will have blue bloods clamoring to throw lots of NIL dollars at him? Seems a bit incongruous.

I don't understand why he'd go somewhere else at this point since he really wouldn't gain much. At MN he gets to be a big fish in a smaller pond and will play against almost the exact same teams he'd play against if he transferred somewhere else. At least if he stays here he's the top guy who gets all the big time reps.He can come back to college if the NFL opportunity he's looking for isn't there.
Question will be if that's back with Gophers or with some other school with more money.
There is zero chance he doesn't go fairly early in the draft with his size. NFL drafts on potential as much as it does on production. Guys built like Smith are not easy to come by.He will measure extremely well at the combine. He's a perfect 3-4 DE with his size and pass rushing ability. He finished second in the B1G in sacks this year with 10.5, only .5 off the lead. He also just turned 21 this summer, so he is young for this being his 4th season.
It would be very surprising if he lasted to day 3.
Mo Omonode, DT transfer had one year of eligibility. If he didn't walk does that mean he can come back? Injury year??Spencer Alvarez
