    Maturi on Sports to the Max 11/10

    -Is looking for an established head coach -Favors someone who has built a program rather than inherited a program -Must have a clean NCAA track record -Looking for someone who has a history of solid emphasis on academics -Covered himself by saying that even with an established name there are no...

    Never thought Maturi was a poker player but what if...

    What if the U already has their next coached lined up? Seemed like Maturi evaded a few questions about a search committee and put heavy emphasis on firing now so we could get a big name guy. If there's anything to the Leslie Frazier talk I would believe the NFL and Vikings would have allowed...

    My $0.02 - Northern ILL Game & State of the Program

    I was able to attend the game in person last night and came away with a few observations: -I was very, very pleasantly surprised at the atmostphere in the tailgate lots. It was my first time visiting the lots next to the stadium and it appears the fun police haven't found this area yet. I had...

    What credentials should the next Gopher coach have?

    Instead of talking specific names I'd like to see what everyone thinks about where the next coach should come from, and why.

    Looks like a couple guaranteed loses for the Gophers this year

    Bill Witvoet is officiating the Purdue vs. Notre Dame game. I can't ever remember him offiiciating a game that the gophers won. Seriously. How old is this guy? I'm having flashbacks of the NFL's Dick Hantak.

    Interesting idea from the Maturi conference call (re: Student Tickets)

    One caller suggested students pick up their tickets for each game on the day of the game. This would force the students to get there early and allow for unused tickets to be sold the day of the game. I see this as being a huge logistics undertaking having to hand out 5-10K tickets in x amount...

    2010 Gopher Class Offers

    I thought it would be interesting to take a closer look at the scholarship offers that the 2010 Gopher football class received from other schools. I pulled these from This Thread. Some interesting things to note: -None of the gopher signees received an offer from Ohio State, Penn St, Illinois...

    All time low for gopher football public sentiment?

    I'm relatively young but I have been following gopher football for the better part of twenty years and I've never seen anything like this. I certainly didn't expect any media or coffee talk about the gopher game to be overly positive but the past 24 hours have been a bit shocking to me...

    OFFICIAL What do you think the solution is for Gopher Football? THREAD

    We've had a lot of threads focused on complaints and criticisms. What the team is doing wrong, what the coaches are doing wrong, how difficult it is to support the team, the lack of attendance in the student section, lack of enthusiasm overall, etc. This is the nature of a web forum and I'm ok...

    My $0.02 - Iowa Game

    -Iowa is who I thought they were. They really haven't dominated games but for the most part, they win. -Weber looks very underwhelming to be sure but I, for one, am really skeptical. I don't see how such an effective quarterback in the past does so poorly this year. Coaching? New offense...

    My $0.02 - South Dakota State Game

    -The single most astounding thing about this game was that the gopher wide receivers could not get open the entire game. -The gophers were outcoached today. -The special teams play by the gophers was very disappointing. -The atmosphere at the game today was, dare I say it, almost as anemic...

    My $0.02 - Illinois Game

    -Inconsistant play at the QB & WR positions really hurt the gophers today. You can't over throw wide open receivers OR fail to hang onto the ball when you catch it and expect to win. -I'd like to criticize the gopher's secondary but the MN defensive coaches were calling heavy blitzes all...

    My $0.02 - Michigan St. Game

    -It was great to see an emotional crowd at home. I'm usually a big sportsmanship guy but it was great to hear the crowd boo the officials for several minutes straight in the 2nd half. I feel like the gophers finally have a home field advantage. -Gopher pass blocking was very, very good...

    Please do not give your tickets to "the guy at the office"

    With a 7pm Halloween night game coming up I'm sure there will be some season ticket holders that will not be able to make the game for one reason or another. I would like to take this opportunity to encourage everyone to refrain from giving your tickets to any semi-causual sports fan that...

    My $0.02 - Ohio St Game

    -Why isn't the gopher offense producing? Take your pick: QB is struggling on easy passes, wide receivers are dropping the good throws and holding/false start penalties are routine. -For the most part, the gopher OL pass protection was better this week. Better being a relative term but still...

    My $0.02 - Penn St game

    -It's games like this that keep gopher football from growing a bigger fan base. The gophers didn't need to win today, they just needed to be competitive. And they failed to do that. -The main reason the gophers offense isn't performing this year is the play of the offensive line. -3rd downs...
