Also, playing at home helps a lot, it seems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gopherwrestler Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 highest rated QB to come in over 10 years. not to mention, also one of the highest rated DT we have ever got. And a WR that was also an All-District ..... offensive tackle? Plenty more on the Gophers Twitter, but this is a good recruit class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swede700 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 (edited) There's already been talk that Clark could leapfrog both Annexstad and Morgan...that tells you about his potential. I'll be interested to see how good these defensive players are going to be, because they certainly are going to need them if they want to compete in the West.

The Gnat Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Weird to see the Gophers recruiting well, though they had recruited well with Kill one year I want to say? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kill did okay, but I'd think he, more often than not, underrecruited, only went after guys who were mainly recruited by non-BCS schools. Fleck just ain't scared. He goes after anyone he feels that are the right fit for his program, especially personality-wise. If he can prove to coach (as well as he did over the last 3 games) and develop players as well as Kill did...to go along with the recruiting, we may see the Gophers reach heights we've never seen. They may not ever be National Championship contenders, but it'd be nice to see them compete to go to the Big Ten Championship on occasion, at the very least.

Probably have to go back to Brewster to really call it a good recruiting class. Speaking of Brewster I believe he just got hired to Mack Browns staff down in NC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vike daddy Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald‘s 15th NFL season is coming to an end and players who have been around that long usually face questions about whether their careers are coming to an end as well. Fitzgerald is no stranger to those questions and he’s typically reserved any concrete answers about his plans until after the Cardinals are done playing. That remains the case this season. Fitzgerald told Bob McManaman of the Arizona Republic that he has “no clue” if Sunday’s game against the Rams is going to be his final home game, but he does know that he won’t be treating it differently than the other 232 games he’s played. Fitzgerald: “It may. It may not. NFL careers end every Sunday. I’m just blessed to be able to play the game I love. No different than any other game. Honed in and ready to play as I have the hundreds of other times I have done it.” https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2018/12/19/larry-fitzgerald-no-clue-if-sunday-is-final-home-game/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klomp Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Certainly, Minnesota couldn't have asked for a better start to the coach Lindsay Whalen era. The Gophers beat Coppin State 84-52 on Dec. 12, and they have time off for finals before they finish their nonconference schedule against Rhode Island on Saturday. Then on Dec. 28, Big Ten play starts for the Gophers at Williams Arena. And one can assume the old Barn will be rocking during conference games especially, as the rivalries that Whalen participated in as a Minnesota player will be revisited by her as coach. Whalen has been most pleased with how her players are listening and responding. The WNBA legend, who won four league titles with the Minnesota Lynx, was accepted immediately by the Gophers players, of course. But that didn't necessarily mean she could count on how quickly they would implement what she wanted. "I think that's been a big strength of our team: Every time we've had something that we identified we wanted to work on, we've done that," Whalen said. "We've worked on it in practice, and it's carried over into the games, which I feel like is a sign of a really good team." http://www.espn.com/womens-college-basketball/story/_/id/25551819/unbeaten-minnesota-golden-gophers-embrace-new-coach-lindsay-whalen-way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
