    JD gone probable

    Was this the dad of either Erik Gibson or Jornell Brooks? Those are the two WR's that have transferred so far. Or another one that hasn't announced? Demetrius Douglas is the one who is slotted to start that didn't last year. Or was it Van Dyne?

    PJ Fleck: Everything an RU Coach Should Be and Should Have Been

    Fleck had said that he planned on coaching his team in the Cotton Bowl no matter what and if that results in job openings filling up before that point then so be it. So once the Cotton Bowl was over, most of the openings that year had filled up. And we didn't fire Claeys until after our bowl...

    PJ Fleck: Everything an RU Coach Should Be and Should Have Been

    As a gopher fan I don't get this PJ didn't break out until the year after you guys hired Ash. You guys already had a new coach when PJ went 13-1. His resume at the time when you guys were looking for a new HC was the following 1-11 year one 8-5 year two 8-5 year three That wasn't that great...

    This is what we are up against

    I wouldn't say terrible. He has had a few lapses this year in pass pro but overall has been solid and I don't remember him giving up any big plays last year. Has flashes of brilliance where just dominates his man. Was an honorable mention All Big Ten pick as a true freshman last year.

    Why are people predicting doom with minnisota?

    He was responding to someone saying if you take away Nebraska's turnovers against Illinois, the score would be similar to the Minnesota-Illinois score. His point was that you can't have it both ways and if you also do the same for Minnesota, the score would still be much better than the final...

    Why are people predicting doom with minnisota?

    Our WR's had 7 drops against Illinois due to the rain, otherwise Tanner would have gone 16-17 instead of 9-17. But even despite that, he is still completing over 70% of his passes, has thrown 13 TD's to 3 INT's and is averaging over 250 YPG and is 4th in the country in passer rating behind...

    Why are people predicting doom with minnisota?

    Morgan has the 4th highest passer rating in the country behind only Hurts, Burrow and Tua and is completing over 70% of his passes, averaging over 250 yards per game and has thrown 13 td’s to 3 int’s. And is 9-2 as a starter. I wouldn’t say he struggles as a passer. Pocket presence is really...

    Gophers open up as 6.5 favorites

    Also, just had to post this. Pro football focus in their preview for the games, also just said outside of Bama and Clemson, the gophers maybe have the best WR's (in the country). So it's not just gophers fans with their maroon colored glasses. 5:50.

    Questions from a Gopher....

    Rashod Bateman posted on his snap story earlier today a picture of him with a splint on his hand. There was a thread on it on the 247 pay site. My heart immediately sank but one poster said he actually talked to Bateman today and Rashod said he hurt his thumb but it's not big deal, the splint...

    Gophers open up as 6.5 favorites

    I do personally believe the gophers WR trio of Tyler Johnson, Rashod Bateman and Chris Autman-Bell is the best WR trio in the Big Ten including better than OSU's trio of Hill, Victor and Mack. I believed that during the offseason and nothing has happened so to think otherwise. Not quite Bama...
