My vote would be for P. Reusse.

Another year where Minnesota's top sports award is being the worst at what you do - and awarded by a cynical old guy whose schtick revolves around imitating a Grumpy Old Men scene. Kinda makes ya wonder...

If you are looking for a single issue I will sum it up for you in 3 words: Weak University Leadership. These are people that see the team as an offering to sacrifice on the alter of their career or to some PC god. No, I am not referring to Ben's hire although one could make a good case for it...

It is possible that Ben was trying some different things and did not care if APB closed the gap at times. I was not watching that closely. Seems like a bit too much hand wringing to assume that Ben was desperately trying to win this game the whole time and he narrowly avoided another disaster...

I think of an apologist as someone who is arguing for Ben. For example "Ben is awesome, he is going to turn the program around, give him time, Hall of Famer, Ben is the MAN - you just don't know..., He is going to crush it - eventually, You are totally wrong - Ben is the solution" There is...

The imaginary "Ben Johnson apologist". Many an argument has been won against those guys.

Note to Ben: On behalf of the players and fans please do not put the team into "run the clock out" mode unless we are up by 50 with under a minute to go. That was the most botched 10 minutes of basketball coaching that I have seen here at MN (That is saying alot).

Look forward to seeing everyone at the normal GH meeting spot before the game!

The NCAA model took another hit late Friday when a federal district judge awarded class-action status to an ongoing antitrust lawsuit against the NCAA. U.S. District Judge Claudia Wilken ruled in House v. NCAA that not only the original plaintiffs could proceed with their lawsuit but...

One man's discussion is another mans attack. ...wait, are you attacking him?

Ben should have gotten T'd up just to honor Bobby Knight.

Good memory.

Standing in the middle of the student section the night in '94 we handed him his worst loss. The student section spent the entire night trying to get inside his head and by the end of the night we all were laughing and high-fiving believing we had made his life miserable. All at once in the...

I agree. This is the U of M however and they will not make a change unless there is a total collapse of the team with the players giving up - then I could see a change midseason. Other than that he probably stays assuming a couple more wins that last year. That being said I do think he gets...

Everyone is speculating on the how the team will do this year and yet nobody has really seen the team play yet short of a summer practice for the fortunate few. I thought it might be fun to see others' predictions before Macalester Exhibition game begins to expose the team for who they really...

Well... I find it funny that you find it funny that I find it funny.

I really have no data points for this year other than we ended in last place the last 2 years, we lost some players but possibly added overall depth. Next week will be telling as will each successive game as the season unfolds. Rumors from a practice game that nobody saw - meh. That is what...

We have 1 more week boys. Then we can panic. (patience is a virtue)

This thread is pretty dang funny. Rumors of a "rough outing" during what was essentially a practice and we have 7 pages of panic posts. If we don't beat Macalester by 60 points there is going to be a total meltdown. Bring on the first exhibition game!!!!

Sucks because I am 100% sure Brian Dutcher would have gotten this win.
