I'm told that was an impressive win by Iowa over a solid team.
I think it serves a decent last stop to sleep before a final stretch to Colorado or Iowa.
It's 4-6ish hours from Des Moines and Denver for example.
@BoxsterCy I'm confused visited gopherhole today, there is a fairly consistent group on there that doesn't like NIL and collectives, does MN not do them? Or are like some here that wish it wasn't that way but realize it is.
One week on the job and my mom already wants me to reframe and re-insulate a closet.
More the later and a lot of crankiness stemming from having a state rich in players and not landing them. Also some residual bitterness among a few posters about gals that leave Minnesota to play for elites like Page Bueckers did. A few posters that hang on to the notion that Gophers HAVE to get Top 10 recruits to be top of Big Ten. I disagree, subtract Clark, and some of Maryland's past recruits, and the top teams in the Big 10 are not made up of UConn type recruits.
Me on NIL, the NIL for Bueckers and Clark is real and based on their popularity. Lot's of the NIL is fake ******** and just play-for-pay so a lot of what they talk about won't impact top players. Bueckers makes ton-o-money at UConn. She would have made less but still a ton-o-money at Minnesota. Clark likely bugs them a lot since she, unlike Bueckers, "stayed home" and didn't select an elite school. Unless the "stay at home" school is an elite the choice Clark man is pretty unusual. The top teams get the top players.
Where do I put in my request?
I like gopherhole it is formatted the same as CF and the fans are pretty rational but passionate for the most part.
The gophers get the hawks in FB this next wkend.
Brutal day today. It was my 50th straight day at work (58th day in last 59) and today we finally had a busy Sunday on top on ISU wbb placing a food order which including coaches and other personnel was like 25 people.
A few people in the kitchen got cash tips but not me. If you want to do that fine but don't do it in front of others who aren't getting it.

ISU team orders get rough pretty fast. Hope they get you a day off soon.
And that last part: so obvious, but goodness, people in charge can't figure out obvious all too often.
Reminds me of their troubles getting back from OU a few weeks ago. Everything was just fine until they get back to DSM at 12:15AM when the pilot notifies them that they have to stay on the plane. Then he comes back on and notifies them that a certain former presidents plane was landing out their window. Between the security requirements and they apparently only had one stairs truck for both planes ISU did not get off their plane until 2AM.
Everyone knew it would be a quick game. They did call my son for his first holding penalty ever…………
He did hold so it was a legit call.

That post from @CycloneRulzzz made me look. I had Labor Day off. Before that was the 4th of July, and then Juneteenth.
I don't remember working 7 days a week being the goal, but I guess it's a thing.
