The Gophers need to get into the statue-erecting business too outside of Huntington Bank Stadium.

Let's get serious and get back to the Statue talk:

I say AJ's Mom or whoever the hell it was.... needs a statue.

No really, I think it is a good idea to erect some statues of Bronko Nagurski, Bruce Smith, etc.. but do not get too carried away with it or it will dilute the significance.

Agree. Set a standard of College Hall of Fame for players and National Championships for coaches. Sure not if Bruce Smith is in Hall of Fame so maybe a Heisman exception.
 




On a more serious note I'm pretty sure we'd build statues if some donors showed up and said they'd pay for it.

It was AJ's Mom's friend if I recall correctly. She definitely needs a statue.
 





Statues surrounding the stadiums are a must. We should honor our past greats and they should be accessible and in the forefront of our facilities. Winfield and Molitor should at the baseball stadium. McHale and others at Williams arena, you get the point. When visiting fans come to our campus and sports facilities it should hit them in the face with our great tradition. Most people outside of Minnesota have no idea the greats that come from the U of M. Add Tony Dungey, the Buds, and many other greats for football. I love the idea. You could even just do a walk of stars, like Hollywood and Nashville have, anything that can help celebrate the U of M.
