    Coyle view from a GH favorite

    https://www.startribune.com/mark-coyle-gophers-athletic-director-ben-johnson-fired-lindsay-whalen-patrick-reusse/601235907 When posting your criticisms don’t forget to mention how old Reusse is! Speaking of age, the reference to John Kundla pretty much puts Gopher BB success in perspective.

    Ben Johnson is a Disaster

    I really don’t have any objection to improving a coaching situation. My objection is in believing it’s going to turn this program into anything more than mediocre. Decently mediocre is even a possibility. But the rules have changed and money talks. You are correct about long time coaches...

    Ben Johnson is a Disaster

    You are correct. Maybe if it’s changed to athletics dept revenue you will be able to finish reading the post and get his point. Since the days of Thompson, McHale, Williams et al we just keep changing coaches and the results are similar. Maybe, just maybe, it’s something else? And what’s worse...

    Was firing Johnson the right decision by Coyle?

    He treated Whalen the same way. His interview with the Strib is pure corporate gobblygook.

    COYLE FIRES BEN JOHNSON!!!!!!

    Per the CBS report: "Minnesota has ranked in the bottom two or three in the Big Ten in NIL resources for the duration of Johnson's tenure, according to industry sources. Johnson and his staff were responsible for raising nearly all of Minnesota's NIL budget — approximately $2 million for this...

    Johnson: “I have some personal pride that I’ll be the only minority coach in the league. I take that with a badge of honor."

    Dude? Anyway some peoples honest opinions are other peoples constant pissing and moaning. I don’t agree with everything he does, hell I don’t agree with everything any coach does. It’s quite possible a new coach could incrementally change our record, but not significantly until the monetary...

    Johnson: “I have some personal pride that I’ll be the only minority coach in the league. I take that with a badge of honor."

    Some day you should sit down and take the time to post about how you really feel about Johnson? No holds barred! Let it all hang out! Go for it! Drop the thinly veiled criticisms and tell GH how you really feel. It gets tiring to see you beating around the bush on the topic. We need clarity!

    Stephen Curry accepts assistant GM role for Davidson hoops

    The most important part in this post is "eight figure fund" for what appears to be the men’s and women’s BB teams! So they will have over 10M to toss at their BB recruitment? That’s 20 Pharrell Paynes a year? Bet they won’t have any trouble attracting coaching candidates! These programs are...

    Stephen Curry accepts assistant GM role for Davidson hoops

    Coyle fired Whalen in the middle of the tourney, which was absolutely uncalled for. Then he didn’t have the guts to call it that. Mutual agreement my ass! That she recommended her replacement, and still comes to Gopher WBB games is an indication of her personality. But her decision to pass on...

    All Things Paige Bueckers Recruitment Thread - Videos, Analysis, Tid-Bits, Articles

    Bueckers plays basketball like Larry Bird did. It’s easy, natural, and she always looks like everyone else is rushing around while she just sort of floats. Like watching Rod Carew and Joe Mauer play baseball. Clark on the other hand is like a dynamo, almost frantic? Clark is a terrific scorer...

    Seth Davis: Ben Johnson has done an incredible job with this team. One of the elite coaches in one of the toughest jobs in America.

    9 pages since Sat afternoon. This is gonna wipe the FBJ post off the leader board at this rate. Hell hath no fury like a FBJ poster scorned.

    It was my impression from this site that the Gophers teams were the only teams in the BIG I Cant Remember How Many Teams that ever loses a late game lead by getting out scored by a preposterous sum?
