I think the Fan does talk gophers during the gopher sports season(s) quite a bit. It's not necessarily for the reasons or the topics I would like, but they do talk about them. They just recently spent a good amount of time ripping brewster for the twitter thing, so that should still be on there. Also, they did talk about the loss of FB scholarships and the Travis Busch leaving thing. Once again, not the topics I wish they would talk about, but they do talk about them. Hopefully winning will breed "feel good" stories, rather than looking for "the next scandal" stories.
We're just in a dead period right now since none of the major sports have anything going on. Louie is the only guy that they have as a regular guest with any ties to the U, so I think that he's obligated to talk U and that's why you're mostly finding stuff with him. In the fall they have on the guy from Fargo every thursday morning for an hour. Last year after games they started to do a gopher fan line like they do with the Vikings. I'm not sure if that will carry over to this year though.
In general , right now, I can't really think of anything for a radio station to talk about for the gophers. Recruiting? the average listener doesn't care until signing day. The stadium? It's still a few months from opening and there's really nothing else to add until closer to that date. The average listener doesn't care that they just put the flag poles up. Obviously, they could pump up the baseball and track teams, but the average person could care less about the non-major sports.
They do talk a lot of Vikings, but I don't think it's completely their fault. If talking Vikings is what their demographic wants, that's what they'll give them. They would talk all day about horseshoes and darts if it got them higher ratings.
