It wouid be fun to play Eastern Washington. Coach Monson deserves a warm hand from a Williams Arena crowd.

Completely agree—you nailed it!

Great story—it was a touching moment at halftime when Ms. Quam was honored—good for the AD and the athletic department. I go to a couple T-wolves games a year. Their listing of longtime season ticket holders to recognize their support is a commitment to fan relations. I always look at the...

Remembering the 2002 Final Four at the Metrodome and sitting behind some kid wearing an Illinois license plate saying “DUKE” gyrating with obsessive love for his “Coach K”. I hope he’s miserable.

Clem was candid about missing out on Troy Bell but he was the exception to the rule from 1986-1999. Clem started “plus 1” in the Minnesota recruiting category having brought Brett McNeal to Western Kentucky. With a free transfer rule McNeal wouid have been hugely helpful to the 1986-1987...

It wouid be fun to play an Ivy each year. Oddly, the game sold out a few years ago when we played Cornell around Christmas time.

Always makes me appreciate Clem’s ability to convince Burton; Shik and Newbern to stay as Dutcher recruits. I imagine even in 1986 their Letters of Intent were no longer binding with the coaching change.

Bad night for the officials worse (third period) for the Gophers…the official who confirmed the goal knows how badly they whiffed on the call…

Snuggy channeling Koalska’s game-tier against Maine through the five hole. Who is the 2025 Potulny?

Actual (deeply embarrassing) situation: honoring Sandy Stephens as “Sandy Stevens” on the tickets for the game.

Never want to overemphasis any given win or loss in a coach’s tenure but Coach Monson had a chance to stay on schedule making the NCAA tournament in his third year. A victory at the Barn in the season finale against Illinois wouid have likely sealed the deal but instead a nine point lead with...

Bruce Smith’s father (who was a Gopher football player 1914-1916?) was a lawyer in Faribault who practiced until late in life. Kindly opposing counsel introduced me to Lucius in the Rice County Courthouse. I was tongue-tied with emotion. All I could blather was something like “your family has...

Three out of If we’re in for the UST rivalry experience—then let’s play the inaugural game at their new arena on the condition the U of M gets a 1000 seats along w/ band and cheerleaders.

Always appreciated ______ (name escapes me) who posted game highlights to music circa 2003-2005.

Some times the better team/competitor falls to the superior game plan plan perfectly executed. It happened to Gable. The OSU wrestler kept it close and seized his opportunity at the end—think of the two third period goals in the Miracle victory over the Soviets despite being outshot 39-17 for...

Dc Money (NIL) matters.

Gary Couch: with all tailbacks injured by the fourth quarter of the season finale against Iowa, Holtz insets his true frosh flanker into the game as a tailback and he scores the winning touchdown on a Foggie pitch-out—and he’s from Davenport! The fan mix must have been about 40,000 to 20,000...

The picture of Marion in action was the last home game of the 1978 season and Cal Stoll’s last home game. Paul Giel would fire Cal after the Wisconsin game. I remember it was a cold, grey day after an overnight snow fall and my dad commenting the 30,000 or so people in Memorial Stadium were...

To quote the Who: “Meet the new boss. Same as the old boss”—(in the event of a Coyle search emergency).

Huge opportunity for UMAA/Athletic Dept to introduce Nico to snowbirds & LA expatriates…
