By way of sad comparison—even our 2006-2007 team with interim coach Molinari rose up and beat Purdue in the conference opener when Jamal Abu Shamala lit it up in the second half. There were 12,000 in the Barn roaring down the stretch like it was it was the 96-97 season. It seems like forever...

I believe—myself included—many MOTs fall into this category.

If both became consistently dominant players…that’s the ticket for a run to the playoffs—imagine a Bobby Bell & Carl Eller-type defensive line.

We’re going because we love Gopher football and this team is fun to watch—and we have family in Charlotte. It’s a shame, though. We had local headline grabbing wins over USC; UCLA; & Wisconsin but could not win the eight games necessary for a more desirable bowl game. Thus, the seriously...

Tomorrow’s look; the gold hoodie I wore at Camp Randall and a Vikings baseball cap—time to antagonize those east of the St. Croix..

I e-mailed AD Coyle after the release of the men’s basketball schedule to express my displeasure about the home non-conference slate. Somebody/some thing responded by thanking me for offering my opinion. I have seen him at a couple basketball games this year and—to your point—on the field at...

I had been a mild Coach Ben supporter his first three years. This year’s home NC schedule soured me on him. I hope the next coach is a bit more ambitious.

Missing Harrison Smith making a difference? Seems like there is confusion in the secondary.

Thank you— he has seen games in about 80 different seasons—missing the two years he was fulfilling his ROTC active-duty commitment (although there were a couple Minnesota games broadcast on the Armed Forces Network which he heard). His all-time favorite moment is from his first game: Sonny...

My 93 year old dad—who went to the 1940 Washington game and the 1941 Pitt game—says he’s the reincarnation of Bruce Smith.

He was at the game—looked like he was sitting alone.

While we were struggling to break 20 yesterday in the first half, President Gabel’s Panthers scored 110 against Sam Houston—so much for basketbsll karma on 12/21.

FWIW, as a proud Oriole I’ll note the Curtis brothers from St. Louis Park are committed to North Dakota.

I have no issue with discounted tickets or admitting people for free for that matter. I was pleasantly surprised to see the number of folks sitting in the student section today. Buying season tickets is my investment in the program. A better atmosphere with more fans strengthens the investment...

The section 101 season ticket holders are going primarily to support our seat neighbors who still want to go. If the department had a lick of sense they would give a stocking cap or other gift to anyone who shows up for the next two games. Show some appreciation. Alas, the powers-that-be are...

Coyle is 0-2-1 on his basketball hires—hitting a home run for pick number 4 seems like a long shot.

Life in the Big Ten with Michigan & OSU vs MN: 1) game becomes uncomfortably close: benefit from a phantom offsides call at a critical moment; 2) need help on the O-line—poach a Gopher tackle. Response: go to Columbus and kick Ryan Day’s rear in 2025.

Buckeyes finally avenging the Wes Fesler hire?

Dreaming of the Sunday February 1978 match-up with Louisville at Williams Arena—after playing Purdue on Saturday. That was a weekend—and a hockey series with Wisconsin.
