Any word out there on what staff members PJ is taking with him, and/or he will keep any of the former staff at M. ?

I think pjf will do OK at Minnesota. His WMU team played Wisconsin pretty decently! Best news for us is some those guys are going to mini and not WMU.

Not surprised. And he was getting 3 or more stars to Western and that's about Minny's average, if not lower some years. He isn't taking over a train wreck like Hazell had at Purdue. This is an 8-win Big 10 team. He will be fine. I say they are winning 10 games and at least showing up against Mich and OSUcks in 3 years.

10 WMU recruits have switched to Minnesota and counting. Nothing to see here.

Wondering how much morale among Broncos has dipped?

Man, that's brutal. And a bit ruthless. I assume some Minnesota recruits are now up for grabs.

Boy! I wish we could lose our coach and then half our recruiting class every few years or so. That'd be awesome!

For a million bucks a year and enough incentives, I wonder if their wealthy booster company couldn't buy the Broncos a year or two of Les Miles before ol'grasschewer jumped back into a P5 position.

That would mean we are winning championships and recruiting high quality recruits, nah I rather be a medi and have this. I created five moral victories last year anyway. in my mind, we won the national championship this year.

If that meant Ohio would win the MACC, be the Top G5 team in the country, be ranked in the Top 15 and make a very respectable showing in an NY6 bowl on New Year's Day, then heck yeah count me in for that. The price for ultimate success can be expensive. Ohio lost John Groce and recruits Caris LeVert and Brad Evans but achieved a Sweet 16 appearance and came within an OT of reaching the Elite 8. Was it worth the cost? To me, oh yeah!

I don't usually like to pick knits since I am far from perfect, but since it is the young man's name I have to in this case.

It is Evan Bradds who plays for Belmont now.
