    GOPHERS HIRING BEN JOHNSON

    I agree. I believe there was very little possibility that Coyle was going to hire a white coach given the U's head coach diversity ranking at the bottom of the Big 10. The expectations on him from his boss at the U and the local minority community (basketball and otherwise) were undoubtedly too...

    Thoughts on the Johnson hire from afar

    GOPHERS HIRING BEN JOHNSON

    There is nothing mythical or magical about it. Ben will sell hope by recruiting his ass off and starting to win basketball games at a rate we haven't seen since Tubby and Clem where here. Like everything else in sports it's going to take time and very hard work. It's not going to happen if...

    Maybe you should consider the possibility that the MN kids may have liked Ben Johnson but didn't want to play for Pitino.
