Gophers certainly like what they see in Georgia. Tonight they offered free safety Avery Showell. Was offered by Colorado State tonight as well.

What happened to him in his time in MN that he takes potshots at the U at every chance he can get (not going to link his most recent U of M rage piece because he doesn't deserve the clicks)? Get a life and move on man.

I will leave this here though: http://regressing.deadspin.com/espn-college-hoops-writer-makes-terrible-bold-predicti-1555200016

I guess I just didn't think that was a possibility. I thought Kaler understood that the next hire has to be about fundraising and focusing on the revenue sports, particularly football.

Now suddenly I'm not so sure. I know Doogie is usually wrong about things, but he's reporting that Goetz is the favorite and Sean Frazier is the other possibility.

I just can't fathom the fact that Kaler might be dumb enough to hire somebody without a big background in fundraising.

Somebody, talk me off the ledge. Please.

2016 Football official visit this weekend. Any idea who?

Wow. Hijacked Rosie's show with what seemed to be an agenda. Hopefully nobody was watching.

Cortez Alston, a defensive end from Westminister HS in Atlanta, received an offer tonight from the Gophers.

Has offers from Purdue, California, USC, Kansas State, Mississippi State, Kentucky and Vanderbilt to name a few.

WTF is going on with the AD hire? I assumed Kaler would get somebody decent, but now I'm terrified it's gonna be Goetz.

Names listed in his article include Goetz, Frazier, Najarian and Esten. More speculation than inside knowledge of proceedings. Kaler will get the final list of five candidates, and he'll make the call. Not the Regents.

Any update on his status?

Minnesota offered 6-foot-4, 285 pound defensive tackle Neil Farrell today. Farrell, who attends Murphy High in Mobile, AL, already has offers from Clemson, Michigan, LSU, South Carolina, Kentucky to name a few.

Here are some updates from guys who have recently spoken about their recruitment and what they had to say. It's becoming clearer which guys they are after out of state and which ones were either offered and are no longer being pursued, and maybe which of the guys out east who had coaches report offers that may not have been. Anyway, have a look. Minnesota guys, Lewis, and Washington/Wilson seem like the top guys on the list.

and take care of little dicky.......this has to stop... every fsal;kfhjsdlfds day there is negative
news on what this guy does. when will everyone learn or understand on this guy.

so did he slay or nah?

Ryan, when does Rivals post the final rankings? (Or are the rankings that we see right now final?)

Coffey and Curry are significantly lower on Rivals than on some other sites. Coffey is top-40 in both the Scout and ESPN final rankings (still a bit underranked IMO, as I recall he was around top-25 before the injury), and Curry is a 4-star top-100 player on Scout. And Hurt -- whom IIRC was top-60 in Rivals at one point in the jr rankings -- is nowhere to be found in any of these lists despite a really good senior season. He could end up being the best all-around player we've had in years.

Reports out of Florida are saying Largo HS cornerback Zamari Maxwell was offered by Gophers tonight. Maxwell, a three-star recruit, also has offers from South Florida, Marshall, Western Kentucky, Arizona, Iowa State and Boston College.

The Reggie Lynch thing is nothing new. Happens all the time. 9 out of 10 times the allegation is false. Domestic assault is different; those allegations are often true. But these sexual assault allegations are almost always false. They even tried to get Kirby Puckett on this.

The good teams with rich tradition stand by their players. Unless there is real evidence that they are guilty. But so far, we don't know anything. Let's wait and see. And for gosh sakes, we shouldn't suspend him unless he's guilty. I'm tired of always throwing our players under the bus.

Opie was OJ innocent or guilty?

*Gopher related in that it establishes opies thought process in other threads.

With no evidence. Can we please wait for the evidence. Most of the time, in high-profile sexual-assault cases where there are millions of dollars to be made, the allegations are false.

No one has any idea if this it true or false yet. So let's wait. No more 'Fire Pitino' threads please.

Cole Schneider, a 6-4, 300 pound guard from Fort Myers, Florida is the latest offensive lineman on the offer board for Minnesota. Minnesota is his first power conference offer.

He also has offers from South Florida, Marshall, Bowling Green, FAU, FIU and Appalachian State
