    GOPHERS HIRING BEN JOHNSON

    Don’t put words in my mouth. I never once compared Johnson to Fleck. My point was about you talking about selling tickets. And you ignored that point in your response. The point is winning games sells tickets a flashy hire is a band aid. Point still remains.

    GOPHERS HIRING BEN JOHNSON

    Yeah, Nate Oates is a real Firecracker of an interview too. Not comparing him to Oates, my point being at one point Oates was in his first job and I’m sure the laid back card was played. Lots of laid back coaches have had tons of success.

    GOPHERS HIRING BEN JOHNSON

    Let me guess. You were on the Les Miles bandwagon for Football? Winning solves revenue issues. A splashy name is a band aid.

    Next Gopher Head Coach

    Just awful strategy and lack of adjustments by Dutcher. 2 of 20 3’s... hmm where have I seen that before??? 🤔 And yes, I understand it’s one game. Totally understand not hitting shots, but no changes to the offense after 10+ min of no baskets??

    Over/Under on the announcement?

    It’s been three days... all of the targets are likely coaching. No rush needed. Letting Pitino interview elsewhere is a respectful move. That stuff matters to other coaches in the coaching fraternity. Coyle will handle this right.

    NCAA Tournament Thoughts

    I know, just pointing out the irony that of course it happened to Minnesota with less B1G teams in the field.

    NCAA Tournament Thoughts

    Love how there were 9 B1G teams this season, yet no potential 2nd Rd matchups, yet a couple of years ago we had to matchup against Michigan St.

    Coyle can cite in-state recruiting misses when considering Richard Pitino’s future

    It’s not even about the Blue Chip McDonald’s All-American players. It’s about keeping the strong secondary talent home and building continuity and a bench and sustained success. THEN you may hit on a Blue Chip guy. Anyone who expected any of those 5* guys to stay home during our low to middling...

    Scoggins talks to four coaches anonymously about the Gophers job

    Let’s put it this way, I’d rather overpay for a GREAT coach than stick $100M into a new arena. One for some reason is easier to justify for the public. I wish we’d open up the pocket books and pay for a proven commodity and the revenue and donations and electricity will follow. On the surface...

    Scoggins talks to four coaches anonymously about the Gophers job

    It’s almost as if they’re spending your money the way it has you fired up. There are ways to build and modernize an arena without making it corporate and stale. They asked anonymous coaches (who are in the industry) and they gave you an honest answer. Recruiting matters. If a coach tells you...

    Agree, Smith is the “best coach” of the two. Your question is valid on can he bring higher talent. One thing is very clear though, both are better in game coaches than Pitino. Pitino IMO was a likable guy, in-spite of his father so to that I give him credit. I genuinely like him. I think he’s...

    I’ll say this, Colorado St. was clearly the better team. They got by on talent last night. I’m watching Dutcher tonight and then we get Smith vs Nedved head to head. At this point I still say: Smith, Dutcher, Medved personally. I think all could succeed and frankly all may be overwhelmed in the...

    Watching Co St looks a lot like watching the Gophers. Lots of standing around. 1 on 1 play. Give me Smith and Utah State’s game and style of play over Medved. Initially, was in Camp Medved, but not impressed.
