    Splitting Big 10 into 2 divisions = dumb idea!!

    With the Big 10 Conference's upcoming addition of Nebraska in 2011, I have been seeing/hearing all this nonsense about somehow splitting the Conference into east and west, or north and south, or whatever... Sounds stupid to me...:rolleyes: Why not just leave the current structure in place...

    Whatever happened to the "Illinois Model?" -- "the Alvarez/Ferentz Model?"

    Whatever happened to the "Illinois Model?" -- "the Alvarez/Ferentz Model?" Back in the fall of 2007, when Tyler Roehl (the beefy 240# Bison fullback) was in our Dome slicing and dicing that vaunted brewster defense, there was much discussion of the "Illinois Model." You know...a new regime...a...

    Another shoe to drop on brew's head?!

    I don't know how my buddy in L.A. finds out all this stuff??:confused: Apparently, the brew is bracing himself for another shoe to drop...which could be embarassing to both himself and to the program.:eek: One of the local papers (Strib?) is preparing an expose right now. Perhaps...

    2 Questions for Doogie to ask brewster...

    Hey Doogie- You recently solicited board input on potential questions you might include during a future interview with tim brewster. I guess I would have two questions, both of which I would be curious to find out brewster's responses: 1. "with your lengthy background (10+ years) in working...

    NCAA hounds to descend on Brewster?

    Just got a call earlier this afternoon from a buddy in L.A., who is 'close' to the Southern Cal program. He confirmed the NCAA is going to drop a hammer on the Trojan program later this month...he is just hoping it isn't THEE hammer.;) He also mentioned the word in L.A. is Seantrel has...

    Major concern (among many) in recruiting Seantrel...

    One of the increasingly important factors many big-time recruits consider as they prepare to make their college decisions...seems to be who is going to 'challenge' them during practice. Whether it's WR's going up against DB's, or OL going up against DL... For example, as the Gophers, Buckeyes...

    Mystery surrounding Brew's coaching hires?

    Ever since Brewster's initial coaching staff was introduced three years ago, I've always been curious as to why he tends to hire assistants with which he has had little-to-no previous working relationship?? IIRC, he had not known Dunbar (other than his interview) prior to hiring him as OC in...

    Anatomy of the Brew's '08 recruiting class

    I often hear about the Gophers' recruiting class of 2008. Much is mentioned in glowing terms, both on these boards and elsewhere, about the future impact of this particular group of football players on the Gopher program. Apparently, this 2008 class had 31 verbal commitments heading toward NLOI...

    Brewster = vastly over-rated recruiter?

    With all the talk about Brewster, and his 'renouned' recruiting ability, :rolleyes: I searched for an objective way to measure his performance for this current recruiting class. Scout and Rivals seem to get most of the acclaim when it comes to college football recruiting, with Scout regarded as...

    Brew's advice comes back to haunt him...

    According to Shooter posted a few days ago: "Sean Henderson, father of Associated Press Minnesota high school football player of the year Seantrel Henderson of Cretin-Derham Hall... said Brewster emphasized the importance of staying home during the 2 1/2-hour meeting at the Hendersons' south...

    Brewster's ability to develop high-end talent?

    A couple of quick questions: 1. How many football-playing Gophers became All-Americans in the 25 seasons (1972-1996) prior to Glen Mason's arrival in Dinkytown? 2. How many became All-Americans during Mason's 10-year reign (1997-2006)? 3. How many have become All-Americans during...

    to re-examine scheduling of future OOC games?

    There are plenty of things to question about the status of the Gopher football program, if one is so inclined.:( Most "issues" appear to be receiving their due attention on this board. But as the summer anticipation of opening TCF Bank Stadium has given way to the inauspicious reality of...
