    Marcus Q&A with Coyle: "I’ve started to have conversations with people today...I’ve had conversations with people about who is interested and not"

    Yeah but he hired Ben after the last time he said that and everyone was pissed. He knows the position he's in now and I think he learned from last time. Under promise, over deliver.

    Coyle knew what we all wanted. Fans wanted to wake up knowing we were heading in a better direction, and that's exactly what we got.

    That's what johnnyboy said when we hired Ben: ) "Can't do much worse than 13th" was the motto at the time

    My bad, they finished 3rd in league that year with an NIT invite. I thought they made the dance that season. Must have just been one of the last 4-8 out.

    He would've been great 4 years ago. Would have made a ton of sense then and by now we'd know exactly what we had. Maybe we would still be moving on, but our floor would have been a lot higher in the mean time.

    Yeah, I'm just not sure how you can watch the last 4 years of Gopher basketball and come up with a post like that. Are we even watching the same game? A lot of posts on twitter were very sympathetic towards Ben under the announcement on the U of M page.

    Power trip morning show has no idea how anyone will win here if Ben Johnson couldn't.

    ESPN's Jeff Borzello: "As of time of publish, it seems Ben Johnson is likely to get another year at Minnesota."

    Yeah all that time Ben spent as an assistant for a p5 school is paying off in droves right now.

    Fire Ben Johnson

    This thread getting an extra year of eligibility. Year zero was a red shirt so it's all good.

    Johnson says Asuma and Frank are two pieces we know are coming back

    I'll take asuma and the tank next season regardless who the coach is.

    ESPN's Jeff Borzello: "As of time of publish, it seems Ben Johnson is likely to get another year at Minnesota."

    He has hundreds of more games experience as a head coach and he wins. That alone is more convincing than what I've seen from Ben. Ben was hired the same year UST went D1, at this point what school hires Ben over Tauer using the last 4 years as a predictor of future success? The answer is likely...
