Yuck, They wouldn’t even get to go somewhere warm.

The Gophers finish undefeated at home for the first time since 1967.

https://www.knoxnews.com/story/sports/college/university-of-tennessee/football/2025/11/30/tennessee-football-signing-day-2026-nil-negotiations/87123096007/?gnt-cfr=1&gca-cat=p&gca-uir=false&gca-epti=z11xx68p118550n11----c11----u004368d00----v11xx68&gca-ft=36&gca-ds=sophi

I don't know what PJ did or had for money but he didn't have the skilled positions setup other than 1st string QB and 1st string RB. 13.5 Million salary cap for Tennessee and 10% for each QB and WR.

Yep. It included 2 tough games against top teams, Oregon and Ohio State. Understandable though it would be nice to be one of those top teams once in a while. A tough but winnable rivalry game in Iowa in which they were dominated. And two bad losses to Northwestern and Cal.

If PJ doesn't have a run game he doesn't win on the road......his coaching style depends on it.

They did play better the 2nd half but the 3 weeks off before the bowl game is quite a break.

I know he said he isn't ruling out staying in Minnesota, but these guys are all dazzled by the big lights and big programs. So he'll go from being a big fish in a little pond to a tiny fish in an ocean. Crap.

He'll be a stud wherever he goes.

He'll just make a lot more money next year doing it.

Not sure what he will make but he had at least 150k in NIL last year.
