    Not sure if you want to answer this JohnnyGopher

    as maybe you are close to the program---or maybe send me a private message but--does it seem to you that Tubby and the boys are a little late with their offers and Wisconsin--for example---is a little quicker to pull the trigger? Or are you satisfied with the timliness of gopher offers? Some...

    My two biggest upsets in sports history

    Of course the 1980 US olympic victory over Russia has to be in there. The other was the Buster Douglas /Tyson boxing match. I was totally shocked when i heard later that Tyson lost. If anyone remembers those days Tyson was a total beast. I had never heard of Buster Douglas. Tysons record coming...

    what the deal with Armelin

    I thought he was a good outside shooter earlier in the year. He cant hit the broadside of the barn lately. Maybe it will change in the second half but---wow. His shots arent even close. Come on chip. Show me in the second half

    Nolen out three weeks?

    At least that was the best guess according to this mornings Pioneer Press. I am afraid this could be a loss or two more than we would have had unless Mav shocks us all.

    Refresh my memory--player who decommited to Wisconsin

    I think it was a thin defensive end from around here who decommitted to Wisconsin. Brewster was very upset with him. What was his name? Is he playing much? I dont think i saw him in the starting lineup.

    Will practice be open to public under Kill?

    I suppose not but does anyone know his history? Has he commented on it? I find it interesting watching practice to see the personality and intensity of the head coach and the assistants and to see how organized it seems.

    Is Tubby exaggerating?

    He said on his show this week that his freshman class has played much better than he expected and added that he thinks they are the best freshman class he has ever recruited. Yikes. I replayed it to make sure i heard it correctly.

    I know--I shouldnt start another thread on the 1st down chant

    So go ahead and rip on me. I can take it. But its about Jules Perlt. Tarball in another thread puts it in perspective why I dont like it. If you are old enough to remember PA announcer Jules Perlt---he would say FIRST DOWN MINNESOTA ON THE IOWA 10 YARD LINE for example. It would ring thru the...

    Either Maturi is a total dope or..

    he is smarter than almost all of us. I sure hope its the latter but I know what most of you think.

    If you arent a Maturi fan I still wouldnt worry

    You can bet Bruininks will be hand in hand with Maturi making this decision as they DONT want to screw this one up. Plus they have other advisors to help in the decision process. Now if you dont trust either Bruininks or Maturi---then you have a problem.

    The media has an agenda

    They would love to have a coach that feeds them interesting copy. It would be easy to write articles about Leach. And Leach would feed them all the tidbits they need. I would say they are more interested in good copy than what will do the football team justice. Take their recommendations with a...

    One assistant coach i wouldnt mind keeping

    Probably wont happen but I like Hammock. He did a great job callling plays the last few weeks and maybe was our best recruiter.

    If you have a conflict for a big ten BB game-lower level

    could use two tickets. Wife has back and neck problems and cant get up stairs so lower level would be excellent. Will pay cash. Would like to get her to one game.

    Smiley Jeff Horton

    Just watched the Gopher Football Report with Jeff Horton. There he is all smiley faced and happy after losing 52-10. sheeesh . I remember Wacker always doing that. I would be in no smiley happy mood after a game such as that. I want some fire and intensity. Ok. I take the games too seriously. So...

    Two things-Hammock and the punter

    I loved Hammocks play calling in the Penn State game. Much more wide open and unpredictable. Then against OSU it was Horton all over again. What happened to the gadget plays they were preparing to spring on them? What do they have to lose. Lose by 60 instead of 50? How about an end around--or a...

    Uuughhh these head coaches

    They simply will not put the second stringers in our offense no matter how badly they mess up. Let Weber fizzle. Let the placekicker fizzle on both kickoffs and field goals---let the punter keep shanking. But no-dont try the second stringers. Are the second stringers that stinking bad? If so...
