    ok…

    Gopher football is routinely in the bottom-half of their conference… maybe consider the MAC in the future ?…pending the future of college football. 
     

    I kid, I kid, sort of…

    Much more middle of the pack then bottom half under Fleck with a couple of years in the hunt to win the west, now with no more divisions it is hard to ever think they will get to the B1G Championship. Basically looking for the type of season like Indiana had last year as the high end.

    Ha ha ha........I know in my head there are lots of programs in the expanded Big 10 far better than Minnesota and just happened to come across the ESPN Rankings having them at 14.  In football, teams tend to play better and win games at home if you haven't been following along the past 100 years.

    I'm glad you know the Ins and Outs of the Gopher football Roster.  I am a UND Football Fan.

    I mean I follow UND football too, had a Kelby Kosterman jersey growing up. I still follow both but I am much much more invested in Gopher football. Your takes on the Big 10 make it pretty clear you do not follow the conference closely at all.

    3rd TE in the Gopher recruiting class, that's a heavy TE class unless someone is moving to another position.

    Gophers will lose 3 TEs after this season. Rohl is the only Y TE in the class as Voss and Weaver are more H types. Voss in particular is very versatile and they plan to use in some wildcat type stuff as well.

    I get both sides of it, but would you rather - 

    Compete for National Titles in FCS or Play at MN and never sniff a meaningful Bowl Game?  (I would rank 12 other Big 10 teams as a better option than MN for success)

    Play 3-4 years as a major contributor or burn years riding the pines, get some playing time as a Jr. and possibly start as a Senior?

    These are legitimate things to consider and personally I have children coming up that will need to navigate these scenarios, not all football related. 

    Fleck has done a decent job although personally I would never let my son(s) play for him.  He's too much about himself and I think this is widely known.  The "Elite" crap they through at recruits is nauseating.  MN will see Elite this year, Ohio St. and Oregon.

    Minnesota and it really isn't a tough decision. National TV every week, more $$$$. Interesting comment about 12 other Big 10 teams about Minnesota who? The clear ones are Ohio State, Oregon, Penn State, and Michigan. Other than that there isn't much difference especially when you start looking at teams records over the last 3-4 years. My biggest complaint with Fleck is at times he gets much too conservative in game playing risk averse.

    Sam Howell, we barely knew you.  Brosmer not quite ready, in comes Wentz.

    Hope he just sits back and watches JJ have a great year.  

    Now about a WR.....:glare:

    Shocked they were able to get something for Howell. Wentz knows the offense having spent time in LA. I do think if McCarthy were to miss time after the first few weeks we see Brosmer over Wentz.

  6. Thought we should have got more back for Duran especially with 2+ years left so no need to deal him.

    Bader to Phillies as well and Stewart to Dodgers for 28 year old LHH OF James Outman, Twins already have a lot of LHH outfielders.

    Surprised they were able to move Correa.

    Columbe now moved to Rangers.

    I thought he was more football than hockey...in which case he definitely would get the hell out of Minnesota.

    Yeah if he is playing QB he doesn't have many options in Minnesota because he hasn't looked B1G level, for that matter Minnesota has had their 2026 QB commit since last summer.

    He played at Miami. He left midseason after Miami coach stepped down in the middle of the season 

    My mistake, once Iowa fired Fran it was pretty well known he wanted to come back home but there wasn't any interest from Minnesota so St. Thomas was the logical landing spot.

    St Thomas just signed a player that played Iowa and Miami.   I hope we can get a couple of those type players.  

    Technically he didn't play at either place. Was a redshirt freshman this year at Miami, left at semester and practiced with Iowa for the rest of their season.

    I would think based on numbers we will probably have to bring in one of or maybe two of Schultz, Simpson, Pilgram and O'Neil but I would say O'Neil would be the least ready at this point. Ideally they all play another year of juniors though. 

    I may be in the minority but I would not be opposed at all to bringing in Schultz and Simpson.

    Didn't stop Herter from being named a finalist.  Maybe he'll head over once WMU's season is over.

    Big difference between an assistant being listed for a potential head job compared to another head coach being listed publicly.

  12. Certainly wasn’t my first choice. Disappointing to see like a UND/GF tie was requirement to be a finalist. No Barr or Raboin are disappointing but not sure they’d let it out if they were finalist due to effect on their current job. Hope for the best under Jackson but need to see a lot of change.
