He did play 16 games for UNC, though, which is above the established 30% threshold for a medical redshirt. That’s why Tonje got a 6th year, having only played 8. Are they waiving the 30% rule somehow?

Wow, Nebraska didn't even make the BTT.

I saw UCSD for the first time last night and they could be interesting. Their coach, Eric Olen, has a parallel story to Johnny Tauer, having been their coach since before they went D-1. I haven't paid attention to what kind of seed they're expected to get, but it's probably in that 10/11/12...

But he is a little stitious..,,

Well, his defenses were inexcusably horrible. Usually last in the conference every year. That’s what I’ll miss….

Putting aside the Minnesota opening and this Hallman character, we should acknowledge there is a problem. Most players are black and I read an article that shows 59% of assistant coaches at the P5 level are black. It's not really a pipeline issue - in another thread, someone talked about an...

#277 BGSU lost by 30 to Akron today to mercifully end their well-below .500 season. A force they were not. Spank-ees.

Lock the thread!

Can you edit the thread title to Ben Johnson WAS a disaster?

Collins is a wizard. Losing Barnhizer and Leach's 31 points is the equivalent of the Gophers losing Garcia and Patterson. Can you imagine THAT team?

No. I said that an individual situation like MN gets to choose the best candidate for the job regardless of skin color. You're missing the point. It's not about the situation at one school, it's about the bigger picture. Why do you think there aren't many black head coaches relative to the %...

I'm reading that black assistant coaches feel they're viewed more as recruiters than coaches - that rings probably true to me. If you've got mostly white head coaches and mostly black players, you rely on black assistants to bridge the gap on the recruiting trail.

I did a google search and an article from Spril of 24 said 59% of assistants are black in the P5. 23% of head coaches in all of D1 are black. Seems like it’s not a pipeline problem.

There will be other threads to turn to for discussing the news that Johnson will be retained (and I told you so over a month ago, btw), but I wanted to take a broader look at "the race thing". I think it's right that individual schools should get the best candidate without even considering...

First team: Smith (PU) Tonje (UW) Williams (Neb) Kaufman-Renn (PU) Queen (MD - coaches only) Goldin (Mich - media only) Second team were the 4 shared plus Queen and Goldin with the coaches and media votes switched.

No disagreement that the times have changed, but that hire is not currently a head coach - a criterion that this board has deemed a requirement. Utah and Fla St. did similar things. Their calculus is that it's more important to have a coach in place when the portal opens than it is to have a...

Honest question here - how can you have the next guy lined up when the ones everyone wants are coaching their teams into the postseason for the next couple of weeks? Yeah, you talk to their reps, but if someone is saying yes to you before they're done at their current job, that's not a great...

I was going to post something similar - this is a year zero for them. They have 3 top 100 frosh coming in, will be active in the transfer portal, and have a coach with a good reputation and track record. I'd rather be them.

The question is whether MARK COYLE should give him the 5th year, not whether anyone on this board would do it, and so I reluctantly voted yes. That's where I think he's going, with the narrative being that he hasn't been given a fair shot up to this point resources-wise, but now they're going to...
