    I'll laugh when it's Schiano or Al Golden

    He sounds perfect for the gophers job! Can you name me a QB at the Gophers that looked like D1 talent? Last gophers QBs in the nfl... http://www.twincities.com/2016/08/29...-start-in-nfl/

    I don't buy Coach K for the Gophers job. Reality is, his head coaching experience is thin (only 3 years in D1, and 1 many moons ago in extreme small college ball), and most of the top players we've had to this point we not brought on when he was top dog. Even Stick and RJ were largegely recruited by Bohl b4 the change. While I think Coach K will be very successful, I would be very leery of a Gopher booster in bringing on someone with such thin experience. (See Tim Brewster, yes, I think Coach K would be 10,000x better; but this is how a Gopher could see it.)

    What do you mean? Leidner is a first-round prospect. According to some people last year. People who were desperate to find the next Wentz and evidently never watched him play.

    But in all seriousness, he does at least look like an NFL QB. More so than the highly touted Philip "Kick 'Em When They're Down" Nelson ever did. You never know, he still could be the next Tim Tebow.

    Yeah, but he's been in the south for a long long time munching on grass.

    I can attest to this. I'm not even that far south and 12 degrees seemed really cold to me this morning.

    Good point, the turf at TCF is probably a dealbreaker.

    Instead of typing my thoughts I will just copy and past TSCF"s as that sums it up.



    On a side note I think Minnesota will "Row the Boat".
