    Former Gophers in Tourney

    Add to that impressive list the MN high school graduates that are playing in the NCAA tournament that didn't chose UofM or chose to transfer to other schools. WI has 5 (2 starters), Michigan State has Tre Holloman, 20 minutes/game, and Michigan has 1 Will Tschetter, 20 minutes/game. If all...

    Mark Coyle: The Gophers' Michael Scott

    Tried. But the spouse vetoed my actions.

    Mark Coyle: The Gophers' Michael Scott

    LOL. Was that comment sarcastic too? If I write a sarcastic comment I normally add "sarcasm", so the reader know.

    Mark Coyle: The Gophers' Michael Scott

    Interesting conclusion but has nothing to do with the replay I made to the comment regarding the UoM administration being clowns and that successful sports programs raise the tide of the entire school- alumni, academics, prestige etc. As far as communist influence from the university I don't...

    Mark Coyle: The Gophers' Michael Scott

    Winning football/bb was one of the major reasons all 3 of my kids attended Madison after growing up going to gopher FB/BB games. And they went to games during the clem/tubby era so not like the recent era of Pitino/CBJ. The academics were arguable better too.

    Hallman: Black coaches' shelf life is much shorter & benefit of the doubt much less practiced as opposed to their White counterpart

    Clem Haskins 13 years, Tubby Smith 6 years and CBJ 4 years in the last 35+ years. That's 65% of the last 35 years. What are you implying? Season ticket holder since Clem. Give me a break. I want a coach that can win, IDC color, religion, experience, where they came from.

    Fran-con Gone at Iowa

    Based on B10 records, If that was true, then Coyle should be gone.

    Was firing Johnson the right decision by Coyle?

    Possibly NCAA cares or at least they say it impacts their decisions for the NCAA tourney. Fans and certainly Coyle and other Athletic Directors don't care about the non-conference games, except for the high-profile games, ie Dukes of the world. So, what was the gophers record last year? B10...

    Was firing Johnson the right decision by Coyle?

    Of course, they're called regular season, so season ticket holders pay for the games. My season tickets for BB include 20 games. 10 b10 games and 10 pre-season games which are mostly horrible to watch and mean nothing. Everyone calls them pre-season, but they're included in the season record...

    Was firing Johnson the right decision by Coyle?

    Does anyone look at preseason records for professional baseball, football, hockey? What's the purpose mentioning or including preseason records for college?

    Was firing Johnson the right decision by Coyle?

    Coyle and UofM administrators involved should be on the hotseat for hiring Whalen and CBJ.

    STrib: An uncertain future, yet hope for Gophers coach Ben Johnson, who foresees a program with more resources

    Is this revenue sharing source considered NIL or is there NIL too?

    STrib: An uncertain future, yet hope for Gophers coach Ben Johnson, who foresees a program with more resources

    Is the revenue shared with other than men's FB/BB, e.g. hockey, and the woman's programs.

    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.

    Maybe CBJ was a DEI hire but that's not his fault. CBJ didn't hire himself. Hating CBJ is misdirected. The hate should go to Coyle (no guts to oppose his wife and the board) and the board who was supposedly behind the insistence in hiring CBJ.

    Fire Ben Johnson

    You said: "Nobody is asking for Kentucky level recruits. What we are asking is for our team to have a shot at a sweet 16 run, not unfeasible. We had it with Pitino, and we had it with Tubby." Did you mean to say Clem Haskins who actually made to the S16 and final 4.

    Reusse: Unlike the Gophers’ coaching situation, the solution for Williams Arena is simple: Blow up The Barn

    Why can both gopher hockey and Wild sell out. Same sport. I think that's what you're implying. Possibly a minor reason. NBA and Gophers are a different crowd.

    Reusse: Unlike the Gophers’ coaching situation, the solution for Williams Arena is simple: Blow up The Barn

    Williams used to seat 16,000 until 1993, the last major renovation. 1981/82 average attendance 16,000+, last B10 championship. Average attendance 4 years, 1990 thru 1993 14,500 to 15,500. There are no stats between 93 and 99 due to the seasons that never happened and paper-writing scandal...

    Rick Pitino loves himself some Rick Pitino

    What I hate is the Gopher BB program losing for 24 years. The head coaches didn't hire themselves but the athletic directors and the administration hired/fired/allocated funds for the coaches. In the tradition of "the buck stops here" the AD and school administrators are responsible. They...
