    All Things Gophers Coaching Search Thread (rumors, tweets, tid-bits and more)

    He's done a good job there but he has a short track record as a head coach (2 years). Also, North Texas was one of the few schools in the nation that actually played at a slower pace than us. Remember that our game was 54-51.

    I don't think there would be much demand for him coming off an injury, at least from a power conference school. Also, the new coach may not want him.

    COYLE FIRES BEN JOHNSON!!!!!!

    I don't think that's appropriate for an athletic director. The new coach should be able to select his own transfers. Now, maybe it would be fine for an AD to contact existing team players (like Asuma and Frank Mitchell) and the incoming freshmen to encourage them to remain with the program.

    COYLE FIRES BEN JOHNSON!!!!!!

    Well, not everyone. Here are some excerpts from a New York Times article: The NCAA will still oversee eligibility rules related to academics, playing rules and championship events, though a new model of governance for the association is also being worked on that could result in more autonomy...

    ESPN's Jeff Borzello: "As of time of publish, it seems Ben Johnson is likely to get another year at Minnesota."

    A new philosophy certainly would be refreshing to say the least but it's not just that. We need to get out of the cycle of one-and-done seniors making up the substantial majority of the team. The 5th year seniors should dwindle considerably next season. There will still be a strong market...

    You make a good point. Being a Gopher basketball fan isn't a sacred duty. It's just a habit, a choice. Maybe it's not just a matter of the university not caring enough. Maybe it's also a matter of some of us caring too much.

    Your life must be really pathetic to put this much emphasis on anonymous message board posters.

    Roll Call, do you want Ben back for year 5? Simple yes or no replies.

    No, and I don't care if they get a coach from the Patriot League as long as they do it quickly.

    Maybe we'll know someday but if he hasn't done anything bad, benching him this long when Fox has struggled so badly is pure malpractice.

    I've refrained from criticizing the coach too much but Johnson deserves to be terminated just for that.

    I actually like Peacock. You never have to wait for a previous game to finish and they keep the games on there for some time so you can watch the replays. The channel also has other entertainment features besides sports.

    I think his athletic ability clearly has been diminished this season and he probably has some pain. He was asked late last season if he was coming back and he said he didn't know if his knees could take it.

    Fox hasn't played so badly in this game but that missed layup at the end of the half was kind of microcosm of his struggles this season. 3 point deficit at half. Better than usual these days.

    I believe all of the Wednesday tournament games are on Peacock.

    Four turnovers already and Femi hasn't even started getting them yet.
