Spaulding is the definitive clubhouse leader in stale jokes, but they make me laugh out loud 99% of the time so I'm good with it

This. B1G fan bases would be calling for their AD's head if they passed up a qualified coach to hire a lesser competent coach due to skin color. I can only assume Coyle hired Johnson because he felt he was the right fit at the time, and the best chance to help the Gophers win based on what we...

He actually said that? Not old enough to have followed Georgetown in the 80's. Wild if true. Also a crazy perspective if the goal is to end racism.

He had CSU in the tourney the season we hired Ben
