I sincerely believe we’re going to see the emergence of D. Wright as a stud WR this season. The best comparison I can think of is in 2018 when we saw glimpses of unreal talent from R. Bateman (think Indiana game-winner that year). Then, in 2019, Rashod goes off for 60 - 1,219 - 11. Dylan simply...

Sanford Jr. officially needs to go. Why has Sanford joined a new CFB program almost every year? Perhaps because he’s a fraud? Fleck has to do it. I think defenses like Iowa and Wisconsin could make yesterday’s 6-point performance look like The Greatest Show on Turf. I hope I can look back on...

Would like to visit after the upgrades. Went with some buddies in November 2017 and we lost 39-0. It was pouring rain. You could hear a pin drop it was so quiet. If Penn State 2019 was the peak of the Fleck era thus far, Ryan Field and Northwestern 2017 was absolutely the valley (for me at least).

Without Kamal Martin playing, I’d have to go with LB Braelen Oliver.

Classy post, Hawkeye! Was at the game as well, and very much enjoyed the experience despite the outcome. Enjoy the win, and credit to your defensive line - they truly played at a very high level all game - pressuring Morgan, largely stopping our running game, etc.

I attended a spring practice this year at the indoor facility. I knew Rashod had nice potential after last year's season (the late-game TD catch against Indiana comes to mind, for example). At this practice, I was obviously able to watch our WR's from a very close vantage point at field-level...

Hello fellow GHers, I just wanted to state my appreciation for having a head coach that preaches DISCIPLINE to his players. I did some basic research, and, not to my surprise, I found that our Fleck-coached Gophers teams simply do not commit many penalties. In other words, we don’t beat...

Is leading the B1G thus far in receiving yards/game, averaging 107.4 yards. He has 537 yards in 5 games, good for second in the B1G in total receiving yards. Awesome to see this kid make great progress - such a bright future, most likely on Sundays eventually. Can someone with elite...

Thought this was an interesting nugget - during Mr. Fleck’s two years here, his teams have been very disciplined regarding penalties, or lack thereof: 2017 season: 28.3 average penalty yards per game, #1 in the nation 2018 season: 39.1 average penalty yards per game, #6 in the nation...

Received this season poster at an open spring practice in Dinkytown. Just realized they forgot to mention a certain game. Look between the Penn State logo (November 9) and the Northwestern logo (November 23) - you should see an Iowa Hawkeye logo in white, but it appears the graphics department...

Was able to attend on Friday afternoon. Some of my observations, for what they’re worth: - Antoine Winfield Jr. #11 is in full health. Was doing drills at full speed. Great to see! - Micah Dew-Treadway #18, the Notre Dame transfer, will absolutely be the anchor at DT. I have high confidence...

I’m very curious as to what GH thinks. At this moment in time, how are YOU feeling about the outlook of the 2019 season? Here’s my $0.02, if anyone cares: Context: Former GH writer, U of M alum, season-ticket holder who attends nearly all home games and at least one road game per year...

We are now under 100 days until the beginning of the CFB season. As excitement starts to build, do any of you have plans to attend a Gopher road game this season? Or any CFB game NOT at TCF Bank Stadium? Here’s my road trip history (only 24 years old): Fall 2012: Mizzou, Tennessee Fall 2015...
