I have never heard a coach talk so often about the bending exercises in practice with his S&C coach. Maybe Husker or someone can straighten me out. I thought bending was bending. I guess bending properly is an important skill set. I guess i can see it with OL and DL. But he is always talking...

I just heard him say that last year his players were men. This year they are boys. He was specifically talking about his seniors and he mentioned Westbrook-Carter-Damien.

Nolen was recruited by Monson. Who has Tubby brought in? Cobbs? That hasnt worked out. How many points did Ahmanisi get last night? Does he have big time potential? Is Andre Hollins really a point guard? He may be more of a shooting guard. That is risky. That has been Tubbys main failing. Not...

ripping Hoffarber for taking too many bad shots. Blake is smart enough to realize NO ONE else can make a stinking outside shot on the team so he has to take some chances. And he is playing out of position on top of it. I can think of many players that deserved to get ripped but Hoffarber is not...

I dont know if i have ever seen a player rated higher by scout than rivals. This goes on year after year. Anyone put any light on that?

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...

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...

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

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.

Thats Karma baby.

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.

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.

Face value.

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.

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...

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

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.

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...

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

How about that.
