There might be a case to be made for black coaches getting less opportunity and less benefit of patience. But that case needs to be made with statistics, not with anecdotes. I wish Ben Johnson had had more success, and I hope he's successful somewhere else. But he isn't Exhibit A for this...

Congratulations are due. So, congratulations!

Good job and congratulations, Mr. Hetherman. You did a great job this year. I hope every game for the rest of your career is a humiliating blowout.

I love winning with the run, and I think that running the ball 40 times with success is very entertaining. The only part of that I don't like is making one guy carry the ball 40 times, which Fleck has done.

A solid and well-deserved B, which is a good grade. Not a C, because the Gophers have generally been better than average during his tenure and because he consistently qualifies for and wins bowl games. Not an A, because he had his greatest success with a senior class that was recruited by the...

Wow, wish I'd attended. I was a young working man, though - working 60-75 hours a week to keep myself alive at age 20. But realistically, that isn't why I missed the demolition ceremony. I just found the whole affair bitter and ugly.

I can't speak for everyone, but I expected some professionalism and attention to the task. I was annoyed by the inane chatter and obvious disinterest. At one point they ignored the game in progress for several plays while they yammered about mayonnaise. For a while I wondered whether they...

I only saw the stadium once, when it was closed and waiting for demolition. I was an elementary school kid, and somehow my school arranged transportation from the suburbs to the stadium and walked at least two classes (about sixty kids) around the field, into the stands and up to the press box...

An SEC fan might ask what it means. It just means more.

They're handicapping themselves. Take advantage of it, Gophers!

If it were this year's Gophers playing that schedule, I think it's a reliable 8 or 9 wins. Next year, who knows.

We had close wins and closes losses. Overperformed in some games, underperformed in others. Failed to outperform my low preseason expectations and those of most onlookers. This was a team that has good co.ponents and could have been better. They earned a C.

Lindenberg is big, strong, fast, smart, and he plays mean. He will get drafted as things stand. It's possible he raises his stock by staying, but it's also possible he suffers a career-ending or career-compromising injury playing college football next year. If I'm in his position, coming off...

But what are the chances of that? Slim, I think.

B+ if it was an option, and I don't even like Fleck. But it's hard to argue with a 1-pt loss against the 5th ranked team, coming in 9-1. PSU left with a trophy and a win, but they were bleeding.

Jiffy Lube Bowl in Williston ND against Vanderbilt, where we lose 19-5 with Jerry Kill on the opposing sideline.

I was driving for a small trucking company, listening on the radio. As I recall, I actually lost my signal for a few minutes and got it back just as the kick went up.

In the end, we didn't have quite enough horsepower.

I know he was a great player, but any administrator would have to be crazy to hire that guy. Murder and steroids in his past.

I was a teenager when Bronko died. I remember feeling a painful sense of loss, even though I hadn't even known that he was still alive.
