It doesn't take Deion to say so. Anyone with a brain could reckon that one of the worst Power 5 teams to ever exist had a roster full of players who suck. They didn't hire him because things were going well there.

I guess everyone has their own definition of "major opponent," but I think an honest appraisal of ASU in 1969 would earn them that designation. It was the first year they won the conference to begin a run of 6 titles in 7 years, and starting in 1970 they finished the season 13th or better in the...

Using last year's final Sagarin ratings, as of now they'd be huge dogs to OSU, slight dogs to @MN and @IL, and 'pick-em for IA and @WSU. That's already 5 games where they have a 50% or greater chance to lose, and that's not even factoring in an entirely new coaching staff and a vast departure...

Dipshits (including apparently OTE, who should know better) still think almost a decade later that it was a Gophers coach - many even think it was Claeys himself - eating a Dilly bar on the sidelines during the actual course of a competitive game.

Highly recruited (multiple listed Power 5 offers, not necessarily 4-star) players from outstate MN (using Rivals since 247's site is screwed up for historical searches) since 2003: 2003 John Carlson, Litchfield (Notre Dame) 2004 Lydon Murtha, Hutchinson (Nebraska) 2004 Nathan Swift, Hutchinson...

Does Kristoff's mom know about your "girl fiend"?

We're still on this shit? Your son couldn't even see the field at a D3 school. I guess everyone is politically biased against him. Or, in reality, he's just not good enough.

You did, right here:

I have no idea as to their status relative to the other players on the field for that game, as I haven't watched and never will, but to say that a WR corps on a HS team is better than a high major college WR corps is not only dumb, but also stupid.

Sunny Wicks was awesome as a player for Northern St. in my hometown of Aberdeen. But other than being white and bald, it would be difficult for he and P.J. to be more dissimilar. This is what he looked like as a player:

Hang on. You think a Big Ten university was paying a men's basketball assistant coach less than $100,000 per year? Really? I mean...wow.

Why do you care how much she gets paid?

So, like I said, a minimum of one Final Four, at least 3 Sweet Sixteens, 100 conference wins and a winning record in the Big Ten. Great times ahead for the Gopher women's basketball program! It's bizarre to me how you cast aside literally the only human being in school history with a...

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...

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?

And?

I mean, Pam Borton went to a Final Four.

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...

lolwut

Impacted them into being the #1 team in the country?
