WTF are you talking about? I never said he must. I said "I hope" in my first post and then said that any statement wouldn't be for this board. I have explicitly said that he does not have to give a statement, no one has argued that he has to give a statement. That's absolutely idiotic. I said...

He was one of the highest ranked public employees. Personally, I think he should have put something out publicly. I would have. I don't hate the guy, but this strikes me as very in character for him.

Are you really arguing that the only things that are right to do are contractually obligated? That's an asinine statement. You don't believe that, you're still in Ben Johnson protection mode. Again, you do not believe that. No one is arguing that he MUST say something. No one is arguing he is...

I didn't say he owed us anything, I said it is the right thing to do. It's how adults handle situations when things end after someone/something gave you your biggest opportunity and largest paycheck. Does he owe it to us? Probably not. Is it the right thing to do? Absolutely. Who cares if the...

Because the statement isn't for this board and it's the right thing to do.

In 2025, if I am coaching Big 10 basketball or football, I am not moving anything around for what people want to study. Treating this as a profession works both ways.

We are MN sports fans, we are fragile and anything can turn positivity into a never ending death spiral. I was at the Gopher game against Michigan and a buddy of mine drunkingly said "this is over". To this day, I blame him for that loss and most Gopher losses since. If that idiot hadn't...

I think some folks prefer to bury their head in the sand than to face uncomfortable situations head on. I hope he comes out and does the dog and pony show to thank the U and then we can all embrace him back into the family. He is an alum who seems like a nice enough guy. If he is wallowing in...

Keep all chili dogs away from that place.

Yeah, that's what I meant by in theory, you could make an argument there is less of a direct path. Those two guys were beat out at previous stops. I think the biggest sign that Lindsey essentially "won" the job is that the staff didn't bring in real competition like a Brosmer type.

Before the portal, our "next man up" this season would be the best QB between Kaliakmanis, Knuth, Viotto or Lindsay. It's a different world now in that Lindsay's path is less earned (in theory).

I have a lot of faith in Lindsey, the staff seems super high on him, he seemed to be being out experienced people, and I just don't think PJ wouldn't look for a portal starter if PJ didn't think he was going to be good. All of that said, if I'm betting money, the OSU QB - whoever it will be -...

Singleton and Allen are both really good. I've never seen the kid from Oregon play but he put up monster numbers at Tulane and was a really high rated transfer, so I'm sure he can play too.

My reading comprehension is pretty good, you just can't type. Look at how you communicate and look at how other adults communicate, it's alarming. I read your post, but the entire conversation is over your head. Someone pointed out that drafting Duncan was a no-brainer and you brought up these...

I honestly think our plan was to use his expiring this summer as a trade piece and add more flexibility. But luckily for us, he has shown to be much more valuable than that. 5/$150 sounds about right. I think at that point, you do it. If you can make it 3/$120, I might like it more.
