Thats your response? I've been called a lot of things, but "fair weather" has never been one of them.
Just keep ****ting on The "U" so you won't be disappointed.
You just don't get it, do you? Some of the alumni and hard core fans of this program have sat through some awful ssshhh!t with this program. It seems to be the Minnesota way to shoot yourself in the foot once you get the idea that standing on your feet is a good idea.
We made it to the Final Four once, oh wait, no we didn't. We have achieved success, oh wait, the NCAA has scrubbed it from their records.
The people who are s****ing on U are the ones who say mediocre is good, that average is all we should hope for because we will never be Michigan, Ohio State, Kentucky, Duke, North Carolina.... Hell we should be lucky if we are mentioned alongside Wisconsin, Iowa, Virginia, NC State, Louisville or Memphis....
Gently patting the hands of players and reassuring them that it will all be okay if your program is a day care center for adolescents.
This team needs honest and critical feedback from its alumni and fans to move forward. The blind cult of personality that people mistake for being fandom just means you like being suckered by marketing departments, not that you are invested in or even care about the performance of the team. This team only improved after they hit an epic rock bottom, but only because boosters, alumni and fans expressed their displeasure. Now that they are off the bottom, we should just stop?
We have a team that goes all zombie in every second half of every game this season. You don't win the Big Ten title that way and you don't get out of the first round of the NCAA tournament.
Keep your eyes on the prize and don't accept mediocrity.
