You know, I remember when development actually meant something, back when players like LaDainian Tomlinson spent four years in Fort Worth learning the game. What you're describing with Minnesota reminds me of our Gary Patterson era, when we'd take two-star kids and turn them into first-round picks year after year. That's real development, not this new-age portal nonsense where you just collect pieces. You Gopher fans have a good thing going, I'll give you that. It's a lot like the old Southwest Conference days when you had to build from the ground up. But let me tell you, the Big Ten isn't what it used to be, just like the Big 12 isn't. I miss the days when we had real regional rivalries that bred toughness. Nowadays, with all this conference hopping, it's hard to know who your rivals even are. Still, building players the right way is something I respect. It's the last bit of the old college football spirit left. Just don't forget, we were doing that for decades before it became a talking point.
