Not worthy of coaching in the MAC but somehow finished 9th in the B1G last year and somehow has 7 wins in the B1G this year with the worst roster of all time per some on GH. Got it.
I agree that's what the program needs in the current era of college sports. I'm pro making a change if that happens but based on sources of people that would know the salary portion isn't going to change. Unless *insert mid major coach* has a few billionaire friends, Gopher basketball will...
Finished 9th last year with the 14th salary and will finish above 18th this year with the 18th salary. If he gets fired and we repeat the 18th salary with the next coach. Where do you think the next coach will rank in the B1G?
Perfectly okay! The Gophers have made the tournament 6 times the last 25 years. Hired 2 coaches with a combined 1 year of head coaching experience the last 2 cycles. Per people who would know the budget for the next coach isn't going to change. We play in a 100 year old arena. We have bottom...
I'm not arguing for keeping Ben Johnson but the next $2 million dollar coach is going to suck too so I don't think it matters. Maybe the 'U' will finally pony up for a big time coach but I think there's a reason they ended up with the coaches they have the last 2 cycles, and its not 'DEI'...
What's a worse job in the B1G and why is Minnesota a better job than them? Is it the 100 year old arena? The cold climate? Is it the bottom tier NIL support? Is it the bottom tier coaching staff allotment? What puts Minnesota over the top?
Maybe it's the Final 4 from 30 years ago that never...
The greatest predictor of future performance is past performance. I don't hate the Gophers but the proof of it being a bad job is extraordinarily clear to anyone who isn't blinded.
Or the program has sucked for 25 years and good coaches have got fired here because it's 'one of the worst jobs in the country'.
I haven't seen anything about the Rolling Stones. Probably because when they were in their prime was the last time the Gophers had a good basketball program without...
