I must admit, after watching Iowa go on an 11-0 run to close out the game - particularly the two 10-second violations - my first reaction was that Pitino has to go. It was infuriating. But if that had not happened, I don’t think we would be having this discussion. Nor, is it likely that we...

I thought both Ihnen and Williams played well. In both the Illinois and Michigan State game, I thought overall we played well, and could have won both, if we had shot better. That will come. I expect that we'll improve as the season goes on, and I'm excited about next year.

On what basis do you speculate that Pitino would not have disciplined a player under similar circumstances? Cheap shot!!!

Earlier this season someone opined that Demir didn't appear likely to contribute much to this team. I thought yesterday he proved that wrong, and I think he deserves some recognition for that. I have also been favorably impressed by the play of Tre Williams. Integrating seven new players into...

I was nine years old in 1949 when I first became interested in Gopher football. I listened faithfully to the broadcasts of their games on WCCO radio in hopes that we would go to the Rose Bowl. Our family had plans to spend the holidays with relatives in the Los Angeles area, and I wanted to...

I just hope your team shares your low esteem for ours.

Welcome. My daughter-in-law went to Auburn, so I have family bragging rights at stake. Mercifully, she and my son will be out of the country for the game. We are a long-dormant program just beginning to reassert ourselves. We won our seventh National Championship about 60 years ago when I...

As the final days of the year dwindle down, I would urge as many of you as possible to dig as deep as possible to contribute to the capital campaign for the new sports complex, known as the “Nothing Short of Greatness Campaign.” See https://www.goldengopherfund.com/online/capital-projects...

Like many of you, I thought this was the year. I was very excited when Tubby Smith was hired. I thought we would become competitive within a relatively short period of time. I was disappointed, however, when, after promising starts, we suffered back to back February collapses in the...

Recently someone asked why Minnesota football declined after we beat UCLA in the 1961 Rose Bowl. I believe there are two possible factors. One is the creation of the Vikings whose first season was that year. The other is what I understand was a University de-emphasis of the program about...

So far I am 0 for 2 on accessing the video stream from Gopher All-Access. I spent an hour on hold waiting for tech support only to be told that the programers were working on it and it should be up in a "couple" of minutes. That never happened. Was anyone ever able to strean tonight's...

Local news here in the DC area is reporting that Maryland reps are in Las Vegas to meet with Arizona head coach Sean Miller. Miller is reportedly their first choice.

I initially thought Joel Maturi had lost his mind when he hired Brewster. I failed to see how an NFL position coach was likely to take us to the next competitive level. I warmed to Brewster, however, largely based on his enthusiastically stated belief, with which I agree, that Gopher...

Surfing channels this evening I happended across an ESPN broadcast discussing Big Ten Football. One analyst - I don't know him and didn't catch his name - picked Minnesota to finish second in the Big Ten this fall. Ohio State is his choice to finish first.
