I agree with the fellas it is kinda surprising that PJ doesn't get more serious buzz from bigger schools about their head coach openings.
I'm pleased he is our coach. Maybe the biggest reason is because I'm very wary we would hire someone better if he left.
We need a 2019 kinda season but if we...
Asuma has all conference potential. He absolutely needs to play more consistently and confidently and last game he did.
Crazy three point numbers...we have 4 guys who get about the same number of threes to go in the basket...
Tyson 45 for 117 and 38.5%
Crocker 42 for 130 and 32.3%
Isaac 45 for...
The Gophers were 3 and 0 in Detroit's bowl. PJ led them to wins in 2023 and 2018. Tracy Claeys led Minnesota to victory in 2015.
Justin Gaard was the sideline reporter in all three games.
We played in the Insight Bowl in Tempe and Music City Bowl in Nashville each three times as well.
Several...
Very simple...players go deaf. "Coach, coach...we just beat Michigan State, how could Maryland possible beat us?" Players all think they will get to the NBA...at least every kid I ever coached and especially including those who never played. They are delusional.
Coaches are in a tough...
PJ is going into his 10th season. Tyler and Bateman were on the same teams. They have/had NFL talent. He inherited one, he recruited one, he had an OC who utilized their talent. How many years have we watched and wished we had better receivers?
Seldom do we have even one receiver where you...
Interpretation..."If I wasn't such an amazing coach we'd lose every game. We can't afford the really good players, so I gotta coach this sorry group. But I'm up for it...I'm an elite coach."
I know the OC went to Northwestern and UCLA won all their games when he took over the offense.
But, the UCLA QB can beat any team all by himself if he's in the mood. UCLA likely won't be easy if he's healthy and scrambling for first downs. At Washington probably pretty tough game to win.
Just...
Usually, you can look at a boxscore and tell why a team won or lost...not tonight.
Gophers out rebounded 39 to 23. Typically, even more devastating to the outcome...Mich St 13 offensive rebounds to our 3.
They had 22 assists...we had 17.
Turnovers were within reach...we only had 6 but they were...
For context...I have heard lots of coaches say the same thing...especially smaller schools.
And they just lost lost to the number one team in the league by 8 and as a coach he wants respect for his team. Green Bay is number 4 in the league after being ridiculed at the bottom last year.
