    Olson offers praise for new Gopher football coach Kill

    Olson had no offer to the U, and he has developed quite well under Kill at UNI. http://www.mnsun.com/articles/2010/12/10/local_sports_update/127ri09olson.txt

    Staff

    Anyone impressed by this Staff? http://www.niuhuskies.com/sports/m-footbl/mtt/niu-m-footbl-mtt.html#coaches Since we got Kill on the cheap, can we upgrade and get some "killer" coordinators and a recruiting guru? (Retain Thomas Hammock and Tim Davis please)

    West Virginia, MN and Sumlin

    This article from West Virginia mentions our situation, as well as Sumlin. There are a lot of West Virginia threads out there stating they want Sumlin if and when Stewart is let go. http://wvgazette.com/Sports/WVU/201011021322

    Peterson

    There appears to be a consensus that Chris Petersen and/or Harbaugh would be ideal candidates, but the same qualities that make them ideal candidates, make them such for any job (college or Pro), and thus they would not want the Gopher job. I've also seen stated that they both currently have...

    We need to dig deeper

    Rather than a re-tread aging coach out of work (Fulmer, Barnett, Mason, Bellotti etc) or an out of work coach with baggage (Leach, Mangino, Leavitt, etc). We need to find that unexpected move. Many of the "rising-star" candidates still have questions marks, - Al Golden holding-out for PSU...

    Frazier done deal?

    Could Frazier possibly be a done deal? Why would "league sources say Frazier is interested in the Gophers job already?" Brewster's dismissal just happened this morning while Frazier was preparing for Dallas. So, apparently Frazier has discussed this in the previous days or weeks...

    Our House

    It's really disappointing that we can't protect the Bank. I mean, where's the home field advantage? Even Dasherless, I would argue MidTennState is better than NIU and SD, and we managed to beat them on the road. I could see NIU was really pumped and loose on Saturday. Right now, everyone...

    A Negative to regime change.

    Another negative to changing the head coach, is that you typically lose the entire staff. I for one think that Tim Davis could be the best O-line coach we've had at MN. You have to remember he came in for the bowl game in '08. Last year was his first year, and he is making strides in the...

    Defense

    Being at the game, It seemed clear this loss was on the Defense. We knew they were young, but I didn't expect so many mistakes from this group which is more athletic than many past groups. Many of these obviously don't grasp yet their role, assignments, duties, schemes, etc. The offense was...

    Positives

    While we didn't play well (particularly in the first half), we out gained ISU, we caused a few turnovers, ISU never scored outside of the 2nd quarter, and we had our chances to win. There's a lot to work on, but McKnight looked great, and I saw some good work from Kirksey, Wilhite, and Jacobs...

    BigTen Coaches

    Looks like Michigan, Purdue, Indiana, and Illinois will not be going bowling. All 4 of these teams have one thing in common. Their respective ADs have already endorsed these head coaches (RichRod, Hope, Zook, and Lynch) for next year. We are going to a bowl for the 2nd year in a row after...

    Let's run the table!

    Win our last 4 and completely turnaround our finish from '08. We'll be favored in our next two at home, and anyone who has watched Iowa all season knows they are very beatable. Not an easy game, but beatable. (they only had 9 pts in the 4th quarter against MSU, and Indiana certainly could...

    Zook

    Zook will be back next year. http://espn.go.com/blog/bigten/post/_/id/5914/illinois-ad-zook-to-return-in-2010 The most interesting quote for me was: "We're still going to evaluate [at the end of the season], but I think it's really unfair to start jumping at the end of the fifth year on a...

    Rushing

    We are not a great runnning team yet and I'm not claiming we are ready to break-out, but we are not nearly as bad as some people think. We ran 30 times for 123 yards against OSU. That's 4.1 per carry. Gray had some nice runs, but these were designed runs. It's not like Pryor's yards which...

    Five true freshmen appear on Syracuse University football two-deep

    Obviously their depth and talent are not not stellar. Their 2009 recruiting class was ranked 117th, and yet they are going to utilize numerous true freshman. http://blog.syracuse.com/orangefootball/2009/09/five_true_freshmen_appear_on_s.html

    Mobley to UCLA

    Funny, because a lot of people thought the depth was to great in the DL at tOSU for him when he originally committed. http://espn.go.com/blog/bigten/post/_/id/2648/buckeyes-mobley-reportedly-to-transfer-to-ucla
