    Dawn Plitzuweit Named New Gopher Head Coach!

    Ah, so now you're talking about the resume at the time of hire, which is not what you said originally. How heavy are those goal posts? Had you said what you meant, I would've agreed and had no quibble. Yes, on paper, she's probably the best hire (not coach) that the women's basketball team has...

    Dawn Plitzuweit Named New Gopher Head Coach!

    Please point out where I said I wanted to hire Pam Borton. Thanks in advance. So, to be clear, you're guaranteeing right now that Plitzuweit's achievements here will exceed one Final Four, two Sweet Sixteens, and a winning record in the Big Ten?

    Dawn Plitzuweit Named New Gopher Head Coach!

    I mean, Pam Borton went to a Final Four.

    Dawn Plitzuweit Named New Gopher Head Coach!

    Are you paying it? No? Why do you care? One year of P5 experience is P5 experience. Good thing we're not hiring a Sumitt [sic] League coach. She's 50. She could easily coach another 20-25 years if she wants to. Having a coach desired by other teams is literally the best possible position...

    Ben Johnson is a Disaster

    Things should and could be better, and it would be difficult to fathom how they could possibly be any worse. We've managed to go from a 3rd-quartile team in the Big Ten to easily the worst, a laughingstock embarrassment, and somehow achieved it in less than 2 calendar years.

    Super Bowl LVII - Eagles vs. Chiefs

    Gannon is the guy, which you don't seem to be too happy about...but the upside is that it sounds like our very own Nick Rallis might replace him as the Eagles DC.

    Useless Stuff You Should Know

    Nope, still in Alabama. If you put the westernmost point of longitude in Florida (the Flora-Bama Bar and Grill in Pensacola, FL) and head straight north, you're out in the middle of Lake Michigan.

    Useless Stuff You Should Know

    I'm curious where you read/heard this, because it isn't accurate. The coordinates of the Miracle Mile are 41.8948° N, 87.6242° W. If you head straight south on that line of longitude, at approximately 30.2578° N, 87.6242° W, you enter the Gulf of Mexico between Orange Beach, AL, and Gulf...

    Colts are hiring Shane Steichen - just can't make it official until after the Super Bowl.

    All Things Isaac Asuma Recruitment Thread (Class of 2024, Minnesota's Top In-State Target)

    Since this nonsense keeps springing its ugly head from time-to-time, let me address your faulty logic and hopefully put this to bed once and for all (though I'm sure you'll be back spouting it again in no time). 1. The two coaches were coming in with vastly different resumes and profiles...

    Question on our 2023 Recruiting Class: Should It Be Better Going Into PJ's 7th Year?

    This has been discussed to death over the years here, but this isn't what happens, FYI.

    Joshua Ola-Joseph future star?

    I love how every time a freshman has a game at a higher level than "5th grader picking up a basketball for the first time," he is a "future star." It seems pretty self-evident that we have zero "future stars," let alone multiple. A team with multiple "future stars" would not be the...

    16 of the last 17 college football national champions have come from inside this red oval.

    Calling your statement idiotic isn't an insult, it's saying that something you said was idiotic. Saying idiotic things doesn't mean you're an idiot. I almost never name call, especially not as of late. I'm sure I did in the past, but I try not to anymore. I didn't call you or anyone else a...

    16 of the last 17 college football national champions have come from inside this red oval.

    To make sure I understand your point, you're saying that no team in the country (except Ohio St.) could ever win more than 2 games in the SEC? I'm giving you a chance to amend your statement to be something less than completely idiotic.

    16 of the last 17 college football national champions have come from inside this red oval.

    If you're going to expand the field (which I don't agree with, not that that counts for anything), I think 12 is the perfect number. You can give automatic entries to all of the Power 5 conference champions, the top 1-2 Group of 5 teams, and fill the rest with at-large bids. You achieve...
