Last years team, despite more talent, would not have won these last three games.
What you have to like is the improvement this team has shown throughout the season.
Ben can't be blamed for the talent exodus after last season, but my understanding is that the NIL money is improving in that regard.
Payne improved dramatically over two seasons here, and he owes that to the coaching staff.
I hope Ben gets another year or two.

currently having some computer issues so sorry for todays lack of content hoping to have it fixed here soon. Either way, these are the types of losses that essentially negates all the positives of that three game winning streak. Still think Ben is facing an extreme uphill battle with his job security.

Gopher target and 4-star 2026 OL from South Dakota, has verbally committed to Iowa.

The University of Minnesota football team announced four staff promotions and one new hire today.

Emily Litwin, who has been at Minnesota since 2018, is now the Director of Football Operations and Logistics. She was most recently the Assistant Director of Football Operations / Family Relations and has also served as the Chief Administrative Officer / Family Liaison and Assistant to Recruiting and Coaching Staff during her time at Minnesota.

Joe Ready is now the Coordinator of Player Personnel after serving as a Recruiting Assistant in 2024. He was previously a defensive intern for the Gophers during the 2022 and 2023 seasons.

Lauren Garlow has been promoted to Coordinator of Football Recruiting and Administration. She joined the Minnesota staff in 2024 as an Assistant Director of On-Campus Recruiting.

Kody Schutzman is now a Defensive Analyst for Minnesota. He had previously been a defensive assistant for the Gophers since 2022.

Zack Lucas also joined the Minnesota staff as Director of Football Program Operations and Administration. Lucas comes to Minnesota from UCF where he was the Director of Football Operations for one season. Lucas has also been the Director of Football Operations at the University of the Incarnate Word, the University of Hawaii and Texas State.

Been a busy month for the Gophers.

Those are only a few of the in-state kids without offers to keep an eye on, by no means a complete or total list.

I would be very surprised if Petersohn doesn't end up a Gopher. Think there is a quality chance he could commit as early as this weekend (not saying he will but these are the types of recruitments the Gophers usually win pretty quickly).

...that Gopher MBB won 3 B1G games in a row?
