When we hired Tubby Smith, he had 16 years as a D1 coach, and had made 9 Sweet 16s (more than half). Among those Sweet 16s, he had 4 Elite 8s (to Musselman's 2) and a national championship (to Musselman's 0). By the time he was run out of town, a significant majority of the fanbase hated his...

Why do you have such an insane hard-on for Musselman? Sure, he would be better than Johnson (literally hundreds of people would be), but what has he done for you to want to literally fellate him?

Ben McCollum's name has come up several times on this board before as a potential Gophers hire - which is ridiculous (that is, hiring a D-II coach into the Big Ten). That being said, he is still more qualified than Ben Johnson.

Not anyone, YOU. YOU specifically. There are people with inside information on this board from time to time. You are not one of them. You don't know anything more than the average rube on the street, and it's hilarious to watch you pretend that you do. What the fuck are you talking about...

I'd rather die.

They must be very well-connected since they didn't know about the May hire as it was happening.

@GopherHole Staff - is there a way to administer IQ tests before someone is allowed to sign up for a screen name?

Drake does have football. His idea is beyond asinine (the only way the U is ever leaving the Big Ten is if they are kicked out), but Drake does in fact have a football team. That was under the old contract. Under the new contract, it's projected to be much more than that - as much as $80-100...

A. You of all people would have zero idea either way. B. If the reports of their AD Jarmond flying to Mexico to meet with Fleck are true (no idea why or how anyone would make that up), there was definitely at least some interest.

Nah. People try to make it more complicated than it is, which is the simple fact that we haven't made a good hire in 38 years.

Nah, it's just hiring a good coach. We haven't hired a good, young coach with a history of success since Haskins. Every coach since has been flawed in some way - flash-in-the-pan, old, never-was, and less-than-never-was. It would be nice, for once, to hire a coach with a few years of success as...

This is definitely not factual, as the 1983 draft had 6 QBs taken in the first round alone.

Oh, it's possible. Repeated kindergarten 3-4 times?

So how did you go to school with him for a few years? Your story is unraveling.

I'm aware. So that means he was ~13 in 2012, when you started posting here. How old were you?

You went to school with him for a few years? Did you start posting here when you were 10 years old? That would explain a lot, actually.

Treadwell??? Big and fast??? Huh??? Give me some of what you're smoking, please. Treadwell tested very poorly at the combine and pro day in almost everything, especially and particularly in the 40. He isn't big, either. He's a physical and willing blocker, and that's essentially the kindest...

Every year he's been healthy, he has been awesome - and that's under two vastly different defensive schemes. I'm not necessarily advocating to re-sign him, but saying he played up for a new contract is more than a little disingenuous.

Slightly over 2 years younger - December 2000 to January 2003.

It already does - more than six months, actually. Players report in July, and the Super Bowl is now in mid-February.
