If Leidner Does not Start- Minnesota Starts Walk On Rhoda

[Knight Shift]

BTN made a joke that Rhoda starts because Mary Tyler Moore had no more eligibility. Rhoda walked on in 2013, earned a scholarship this past spring, and started for the first time against Maryland.

How is it that Minnesota's second string QB is a walk on? :scream:

Interesting Rutgers connection:

"Rhoda has played in only three college games, completing one of two passes for 6 yards. But he has outlasted several quarterbacks who’ve come and gone since he signed with the Gophers.

Philip Nelson has transferred twice, landing at East Carolina, where he ranks 17th in the nation in passing yards (306.8 per game).":chairshot:

Confusing, because Rhoda left Minneapolis to go to NYC, didn't she?

Rhoda will throw 4 TDs this week

Rhoda will throw 4 TDs this week

based on what metric? Do you think Minnesota is a good as Washington or OSU?

Thanks. We are slaying them in the Haiku thread with Caddyshack and Mary Tyler Moore/Rhoda references

Here's a photo of me with the MTM statue in downtown Minneapolis in May 2009. :sunglasses:

Looks like a Julie Herman statue.

Looks like a Julie Herman statue.

That will be between the Mike Rice and Kyle Flood statues.

Ted Baxter is to be played by Kyle Flood. Lou Grant played by Greg Schiano. That is all you need to know about the difference between the two!

Dismissed from team for failed drug tests.

I went to high school with a kid who was Valerie Harper's nephew. She used to visit frequently. Given that she was at the height of her popularity at the time, it was kind of a big deal.
