    Hear me out.

    With the way money works now in sports, I often wonder if teams in pro sports (make no mistake, college sports are now pro sports) even really care about fans/attendance/winning. Sure they will all 100% say it's their only focus and if they had a choice win or lose obviously they pick winning...

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA VS WAKE FOREST 3RD PLACE ESPN EVENTS INVITATIONAL IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    March 10th can't get here quick enough. CBJ is the worst hire in school history and it's pathetic the way this team looks. Can't wait to start over.

    This should be CBJs motto. Sure they suck but we might win, and that is better than playing someone decent! This year can't end fast enough.

    All Things P.J. Fleck Rumor Mill Thread - Listed as Candidate for Other Jobs

    I think for them that makes sense. Their bball team is the focus, add in other sports they dominate and football is one of those that they want to win big, but if they don't meh that's OK we are great in other sports we will survive.

    What is an acceptable expectation for a Gopher Men’s Basketball Head Coach?

    In a 10 year stretch I'd say: 9/10 make B1G tournament 5/10 make NCAA tournament 2/10 miss but on the bubble Win say 4 ncaa tournament games, make 1-2 finals runs in conf tournament. Schedule better home and home games. Play in respectable MTE in say 6 of 10 years. That essentially means 7...

    Serious conversation

    In football in 2024 it's all about the QB. So your question of, when will it get better? It will happen when/if we hit big on QB. Brosmer is solid, but he isn't winning us games on his own. As we aren't out spending other teams, we need to find that under the radar guy that is way better than...

    Michigan just paid $12 million for their new 5* QB, flips him from LSU

    I agree with the posts saying I'd go after known quantities at QB. Dillon Gabriel, Cam Ward. Rourke, Howard types. Feels way safer. I guess when you have unlimited money it doesn't matter if you swing and miss, you just pay another kid so.

    Best time to send Ben packing?

    This goes to my point about not really caring about who is coming back and the new coach quotidian being guys with

    Best time to send Ben packing?

    I agree with this. At this point he's not coming back but firing him is pretty useless. I think the only positive is he keeps recruiting and maybe 1-2 of those guys stick just because they like the school/NIL/New coach. The only thing I do wonder, does an early firing boost the fan base who...

    ***OFFICIAL CLEVELAND STATE AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Reason for reality: We are now hoping a D3 kid saves us Maybe our defense isn't great, just our opponents are awful on offense (avg KP off ranking 175.6, most of the B10 is in the top 40 for off eff) We have looked pretty poor against the 257th ranked schedule.

    If Tyler Cochran is better than Michael Jordan this team might win 6 conf games! Cripes this staff is pathetic.

    ROCK BOTTOM HAS BEEN ACHIEVED

    Without really digging in, seems likely most schools are this way. I'm sure there are exceptions that have stumbled into multiple good coaches in a row, but I'd bet most middle-lower pack P5 schools have a similar ish track record. I don't very many P5 schools have consistently had coaches go...

    Sorry, i meant he just sucks at basketball. I said CBJ should get the rest of the year. I now don't think that's even a good idea.hes absolutely pathetic.

    Turns out, Rigsby was glued to the bench at Oregon for a reason. Man he is not good.

    Play “Your the Gopher AD”! What’s your move?

    I forgot to add. The first thing I would do after hiring a new coach. I'd make a grand announcement that on opening day 2025 we are hanging that final 4 banner back up. I promise you the barn would be sold out and rocking. And I bet you get a few extra $$ to roll in the door. And I'd wait for...

    Until we stop bargain bin shopping for coaches, the result will mostly be the same.

    Those guys do nothing for me personally. Are they better than CBJ, obviously. I'm all in on HR swings. Will Wade Bryce Drew, or Drew Valentine.

    Play “Your the Gopher AD”! What’s your move?

    Certainly understand your argument, and it could absolutely play out that way. I think the hiring of Coach P for the women's team (and signing of a very highly ranked recruit) is a good sign hopefully for the men's program as well. I'm not expecting a Muss type of splash but I hold out hope it...
