Hey, could you ease up on the all caps? Every time I see them I'm reminded of an orangutan ranting at a MAGA crowd.

Game in, game out, Heyer is their most consistent player. You hardly notice her, and yet by the end of the game, more often than not, she has a double double.

Janay earned her scholarship today. I've been skeptical about her offense, but she really made some big plays on defense when it mattered late in the game. Very disruptive.

No, really can't blame him.

UConn has been a national power for decades now, with multiple national championships. They are able to recruit nationally (they do not have one CT native on their roster) and, because of their resume, are able to land the best players. That's why Bueckers is on their roster and not ours...

As long as she doesn't throw chairs across the court, strangle her players, or assault police officers (like the late Bobby Knight), I don't mind a coach with high expectations.

I didn't mean to imply that the AD may have forced him out. I seriously doubt that was the case. I was just referring to the posters on this board who were always critizing Hugh for not winning a National Championship.

I had season tickets for 39 years. In the beginning they were worth it. I remember watching Al McGuire (Marquette) tearing his coat off at a bad call (in his mind), a great overtime win over Stanford, and the Gophers almost beating UCLA (when they were good), all at the Barn. Other top notch...

Old habits die hard. I agree, 5 assists with 5 turnovers is not a good ratio.

With the wide open transfer portal and NIL, I don't think you can make too many assumptions about who will or won't be back next year.

The defense may have collapsed, but if the offense could ever sustain a drive when it mattered, the defense wouldn't be in that position. AK is lousy but unfortunately there's no alternative on the roster. I started following this team during the Rose Bowl years and it's been down hill ever...

With the number of bounce passes he throws, he's earned a new nickname in my household: Skippy.

I have had season tickets for about 25 years. I will agree that this season's troubles are surprising and disappointing, but it seems a little premature to write off this coach and staff as failures. He has succeeded elsewhere and I expect he will here if given time. I find it amusing how...

I guess we know where he stands.

So what does this have to do with Gopher women's volleyball?

I hope Coach Cook takes the Gophers to another level. I hope they win a national championship. But to say that this program needed to be turned around is laugh out loud funny.

If I remember correctly, he broke his jaw early in the game and didn't tell anyone. No one caught on until he was seen throwing up blood late in the game. He gets my vote.

Assuming all teams start their season at roughly the same time, why is this rule unfair?

I agree. While Battle showed promise as a freshman, the fact remains that she had almost as many turnovers as assists. She's going to have to show more focus and protect the ball better before she's given "the keys to the car".

Good response.
