This team is going nowhere fast if this level of play continues. Nolen will help, but the issues go way beyond the point guard challenges. 1) This team does a poor job of taking care of the ball. Sloppy passes. Dribbling too much into traffic. Poor decisions that result in turnovers. 2)...

Brew is so goofy. Yeah, Bielema going for two is maybe classless. But on the scale of things to be concerned about, that is down around #500 on the list. Timmy needs to look in the mirror.

Brew, you are a nice guy and I appreciate that you have a good graduation rate. But you are not a good coach. Your recruiting has been marginally better than you predecessor, but your coaching ability has been found wanting. You did your best, but you did not create a team with growing skills...

No question it should be Paul Giel who earned All-America honors in football and baseball multiple years. He played for a crappy football team but still capped his illustrious Gopher football career with a very close second in the Heisman Trophy competition. Both the NFL and MLB were in a...

Granted, one is an early season game and the other was a season ending bowl game. But is the impact similar? Brew might be able to recover, but if he ends the season under .500 and no bowl game, I think he might be done.

Young Lane Kiffin may have his issues, but I will bet he is laughing his arse off right now. He and his staff have got to be licking their chops to go up against the Gopher defense. Lane probably saw better defense when he was in the Lake Conference.

There has been some talk here that Joseph is not as good a player as we thought he was. Listen, Devoe played against the best competition around the world as a junior player from Canada and he also played against great American players his age. The consensus was that he was an outstanding young...

I see the women have lost five in a row and they are 4-7 in the Big Ten. I thought they were supposed to be pretty good this year. It was a bad omen when they lost to Winona State to begin the season, I guess.

Tubby has two recruiting classes of HIS guys on this team. The Jr's and Sr's are either Monson recruits (Nolen, Hoff, Westbrook, etc.)or JC guys plugged in to fill gaps in the roster. And maybe the two most important recuits Tubby has brought to Williams Arena are sitting at the end of the...

How will we know if the Gophers are doing the things they need to do to be a better team next season? If Brewster and his coaches are talking about and taking action in the following areas, we have some hope that things will get better. If not, we have real reasons to doubt there will be...

Adam Weber is not a leader or a D1 quarterback. This is not a flame. This is a realization that I have come to later than most on this board. I am sure his teammates like Adam and his intentions are good in terms of fulfilling his role as Gopher QB. But he is like a lot of nice Minnesota...

Anyone out there want to stomp or confirm the stuff that keeps popping up about Sam Maresh? Who is this guy really? There is the brave, talented, family-oriented, idealized Minnesota-born, student athlete...and then there is also the guy who gets in fights, raises hell, a bit of a bully and...

Consider TCU, Boise and Cincy who are ranked in the top ten. They do not play as tough a schedule as the Gophers, that is a given. Their recruiting rankings are historically about on the Glen Mason level....maybe just a little better for specific classes. Do the Gophers have as much talent as...

Offensive line coach Tim Davis is my hero of this win along with his offensive line. Adam Weber does not play well at all when he is pressured. There were times tonight that Adam had all day to throw the ball. I was amazed. Any time you have the time to complete long throws, you know...

The ball Gray threw into the end zone was interesting. While he did not hit the receiver, he threw the ball 45 yards by just flicking it out there. Effortless. If he can get in synch with his receivers, he will be something.

Let's salvage this season by allowing the future of this team to develop. Gray at QB. Let's move on to the future. Weber is a nice guy, but he is the past.

I hear that we are "out of it" with Seantrel Henderson and that he wants to play for a "big time" program. Seantrel doesn't want to go to his home university? Not good enough for him? See ya. One o-lineman will not make a team good or bad, but our group of o-linemen will make a big...

The Gophers were kicked all over the field today, and that is no exaggeration. Look at the game stats. OK, the Gophers have had a couple good recruiting classes, but this team is still talent poor. Look at the sad state of the offensive line for starters, or our pathetic safties on defense, or...

This may be an emotional game for Royston with his history with Wisconsin, but he just needs to shut his mouth and start playing some solid football. All that trash talking does nothing but make him look like an idiot.

I would like hear what you all think about what may have been our biggest weakness last year and a big key to our success this year.....the Offensive Line. After leaving the scrimmage Saturday, I had very mixed feelings about our progress from last year. It looks like Carufel and Wills are...
