I'm not sure if this is a joke, but I'll reply. Two things can be true: You can hate the way the game is changing and also try to win playing by the current rules. Using "principles" might encourage a coach to tell a player entering the portal that if he makes that move he's not welcome back...

Just getting to this thread and this reply says much of what I had in mind. We almost made it the tournament in that third season, and I always thought that if he had, the momentum would've continued. Win that game against Illinois, and I think it changes everything about the rest of his tenure...

Clemson and Virginia Tech both recently raised their student fees -- by $150 per semester and $186 annually, respectively -- specifically for athletics. There'd be a lot bigger blowback in Minnesota, however.

I think it's Medved. But if someone is going to make a list, that doesn't mean everyone on it is the #1 choice. You're right that Tauer probably would've been hired if he was #1; he's clearly not. But what if Medved and McCollum turn us down? We'll wish we had a list of third or fourth options...

Great interview, as he usually is. He was very open about his time here. My one nit: He says he's not a better coach now than he was here. I disagree.

No

I don't know what Steph Curry's actual job will be. But in the new world of NIL and free transfers, programs will definitely need people to track and even scout potential transfers throughout the year -- from programs above and below them -- and think about how much each might fit into the...

Damn price of eggs.

That was the loudest I ever heard it in there. It was loud 10 minutes before tipoff. A incredibly fun game for the Gophers at that time.

It's hard to argue that Minnesota belongs any higher than fifth tier. But I have big problems with about half the teams in the fourth tier who belong in Tier 5 with us.

You've shown this picture over and over and over through the years. Nobody disagrees that this is abysmal. However, the size of the rink has been reduced since this was taken and is the same (or within a few feet) as Wisconsin and Ohio State. They seem to make it work. If you're using it for...

The 2025 class is currently ranked #46 on 247. With that, plus only one contributor coming back, there will never be a better time to start over.

I wanted Deon on fail, but ... hasn't elevated Colorado? They were one of the worst teams in the country three years ago. Now they're selling out home games, they got ranked in two years, they have the college football world talking about them. If the Gophers were in the same spot as the Buffs...

I guess that's how the Jets get to be -- and remain -- the Jets.

60 is considered average.

Solid B for me. Aside from wins, my biggest surprises/disappointments have been on recruiting and attendance. Attendance is usually bumped by winning, of course. Between the opening of the new stadium and Kill digging out from the Brewster years, attendance was strong 10 years ago. Then they...

Correct. I know Burns said "rev share," but I don't believe that's what he meant. Maybe I'm wrong. Now that Koi and Darius have re-upped with Dinkytown Athletes, I'm not worried at all.

Now I feel better.

Yeah, I wasn't responding to you, necessarily, but I agree with you.

Pyron is not an established, accomplished starter from another P4 program. Newsflash: We're not in the running for those guys. We got very lucky with Max moving up from a lower level and may not have been so fortunate again. If we did bring in an established starter and let Linsdey remain the...
