I was going to bring up the cow tipping, yes.

We made our own fun in Morris.

To this day, Clem claims that they were a Webber away from national title contention back then.

Very good school with excellent fine arts. I was there for pre-engineering. That was back in the day when only one university in the state had engineering programs. Do you know who DID play baseball there? Kerry Ligtenberg! He played with my now-brother in law. That's when my sister was there...

Wondering if programs will keep scholarships open in case they can snag these players or retain existing ones.

Clem blames it on Rick Bay. I heard there was an allegation of some improper aspect to his official visit. Bay instructed Clem to break off contact while it was looked into internally, and Webber slipped away as a result.

Well put.

There's a way to say this without calling people stupid.

The good news is that Niko can give him a convincing sales pitch about developing him to his potential. The bad news is that Wisconsin can, too.

I went my first two years to Minnesota-Morris. Same deal.

To the younger folk here, Monson took Rico Tucker instead of Woodside, which turned out to be a mistake. The phenomenon of Gopher coaches passing up local kids in favor of flashy players from elsewhere (e.g., Wright versus Washington) has bitten us over the years.

If that's a serious question, I'm ambivalent about it. More ignorant about it than I ought to be as a CBB fan, probably. To the extent it's part of the problem, it should be addressed, too.

Obviously, I want the Gophers to be successful, but more than that, I want college basketball to be healthy and sustainable. Few would argue that the cure (unlimited pay and unlimited freedom for players) has been worse than the disease (players as indentured servants with no cut of the big...

This reminds me of when we had Dana Jackson, and Michigan had Jimmy Jackson, and Ray kept calling them both just "Jackson," and I had no idea who had the ball at any one moment.

A train leaves San Francisco traveling east at 62 mph...

Maybe so. Maybe it IS only a cushy, part-time job.

In my opinion, this is too much to ask of college programs, even those with full-time GMs. That as much as anything is why chaos is no way to run an athletic association.

It's a nice thought, but I presume GM of the Gophers is a full-time job. Not sure that's how Garnett wants to spend his days.
