    Scoggins/Kill Article

    If I was trying to support the idea that Kill is the better coach, I would have written that post differently. My aim is to show that Fleck isn't worthy of bootlicking and Kill doesn't deserve the criticism and mockery that he gets here.

    I'm not finding fault with Fleck. I'm merely comparing. Draw your own stupid conclusions. It's stupid to characterize Kill's forced retirement as "quitting during a losing season"

    Scoggins/Kill Article

    A few observations. 1. Kill took over a program that had gone 3-9 (2-6) in the previous season, and made it better. Fleck took over a program that had gone 9-4 (5-4) in the previous season, and made it worse. 2. Kill was named Big Ten Coach of the Year in 2014. Fleck was named co-Coach of the...

    Which Big Ten football stadiums are the best, most underrated and overrated? (Minnesota Underrated)

    I'm trying to remember how to spell "well duh." I was talking about possibilities, not actualities.

    Which Big Ten football stadiums are the best, most underrated and overrated? (Minnesota Underrated)

    Having seen the temporary lakeside home of NW football, I think they're crazy not to play there permanently. They have the money and they're accountable to no one, so they could innovate - make a three-sided stadium where the sideline is open to the lake, instead of an end zone. They aren't...

    Former mafioso Michael Franzese discussion of sports gambling

    I thought this video was the most informative thing I've encountered in the last week. Interestingly, one of the people arrested by the FBI as part of this gambling investigation was former Gophers linebacker De'Niro Laster. The last time I remember seeing him was at a spring game about ten...

    Michigan State Game.

    I sure hope so. I hate to lay out a lot of cash for a ticket and get a nasty surprise. The best thing you can say about MSU this year is that they've been competitive in parts of some of their B1G games.

    Which Big Ten football stadiums are the best, most underrated and overrated? (Minnesota Underrated)

    TCF Bank Stadium (I refuse to use the new name) is a beautiful stadium with lots of amenities, a beautiful facade, a beautiful interior, and plenty of access. It was designed for its surroundings and engineered to please the fans and the athletes. The one valid criticism isn't a flaw in the...

    Former mafioso Michael Franzese discussion of sports gambling

    Relevant to all popular sports, including college football. The man reputed to have been the richest gangster in American history talks about the NBA gambling scandal, how the mafia gets their hooks into athletes, and how outcomes are influenced.

    AT WHAT POINT DO YOU SAY ENOUGH IS ENOUGH

    Having a 5-3 record with two blowout losses isn't a reason to abandon the team. I do find it a source of exasperation with the coach. I don't know whether anyone is satisfied with achieving a level slightly above mediocre over the long term.

    What grade would you give the Gophers coaches and players in Iowa loss?

    I was tempted to give a D- because the second half was better than the first, but that would have been charity. This game sucked. When you make Iowa look like Ohio State, you have sucked royally.

    Greatest individual sports achievement in Gopher history.

    Omar Douglas: five TD receptions in the Gophers' 59-56 victory over Purdue, October 9, 1993. What makes it even more amazing is this was not an OT game.

    Matt Rhule press conference after Minnesota.

    It couldn't have been a more critical time for him. Until Friday night he was being talked about for the PSU job.
