Apologies if already posted elsewhere, but I glanced through the Athlon preview at the newsstand yesterday and saw they ranked Minnesota's hiring of Jerry Kill as the best coaching hire of the offseason. Though they did say winning a Big Ten title at the U of M would be a tall order for anyone...

Agreed. When I was working Spring Training in 2007 (you know, back when Gopher hockey was still good), Gary Thorne came up to the press box in the late innings of a midweek Marlins game. There was hardly anybody up there, and he came over to my office asking for a Mets media guide since he was...

Agreed. But I also believe that college hockey has a broader appeal in the areas in which it is played than baseball does. Meaning, there are more pockets of this country where college hockey is a huge deal than there are for college baseball. When I lived in South Florida for a year, nobody...

I was disappointed a year ago when Lucia wasn't removed. Could've told him to step down citing "health concerns" - now, he should flat out be fired. It's been four years since we've resembled Gopher hockey. There's never an excuse for that. Never.

Kind of wish I had missed it. Got totally outworked by Anchorage for about 55 of 60 minutes. With the season on the line, where's the fire?

How true. I live in one of the few places in the country where college baseball is relevant - I've tried explaining to LSU fans that nobody cares how dominant they are in baseball, just like nobody cares how dominant we are (were?) in hockey, but I don't think they fully grasp that their sport...

One month ago, I never would've envisioned the Gopher hockey team as being the one that's been fun to watch. With hoops going in the tank, there couldn't have been a better time for the hockey team to (finally) start playing the way a Gopher hockey team should. As for the NCAAs, it's a given...

http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/11010/1116961-100.stm Seems like kind of an out-of-left-field hire, but I was more interested in the previous Post Gazette article which said: I don't remember his name coming up. But then again, there weren't any flights being tracked from Tulsa to local...

Pretty funny

....but Wisconsin loses, therefore it is a great day. Happy New Year, indeed. :clap:

The most powerful conference in the nation is having some issues so far this bowl season. Hopefully the Big Ten at least holds serve in the four H2H match-ups.

...and it's all on the Gophers' home turf?!?! A perfect night. Ski-U-Mah and BEAR DOWN!

This video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xr7MVIcbKsI ....got me wondering if Goldy will be allowed on the sidelines tonight.

Strange timing for Maryland to be considering a buyout of Ralph Friedgen, after his team had a bounce back season: http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=5931102

Dan Mullen has to be loving life right now. He'll be the logical choice to return to Gainesville, but he can play Florida and Miami against each other, or see if Mississippi State can come up with the cash to keep him. Whatever happens, he's going to get PAID. Makes you look back on the...

...until I'll be sitting in Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum cheering on Jerry Kill's Gophers.

Made our way over to Sally's after the game on Saturday, and had a good time cheering the highlights on the big screens in the tent with other Gopher fans. The loudest cheer went up when they flashed the final score, to which a woman in Hogeye gear responded, "Big f-in deal, celebrate your third...

Beat the :pig:eyes.

ESPN will be broadcasting College GameDay from Wrigley Field in advance of Saturday's Illinois-Northwestern game. While this is a fun idea, especially with all the football history at Wrigley, the field alignment is very poorly done, resulting in literally NO room between the back of the end...
