It wasn't Johnson that dug the hole, it was Coyle... geez.

The University of Minnesota Gopher Athletics must stop settling for mere "competitive" seasons. With a substantial, nine-figure operating budget and elite administrative compensation, the financial resources already committed to this program justify demanding Big Ten championships. The case of...

barf.

Exactly. There is no money on the scale of the helmet schools. Minnesota does NOT have a billionaire benefactor. Seriously, MN along with Purdue, NW, and some others will not be part of the first tier of college football once this is all played out.

17-16 Rhode Island

The first who should go is Coyle. Responsibility starts at the top, he should go and hopefully the new President (from Michigan) takes no prisoners and jettisons Fleck as well. This program, whether people want to believe it or not, is primed for money printing... because it is fortunate enough...
