I meant anyone’s radar connected to Minnesota, where he’s from, not for every other program.

But Medved’s mild mannered personality was the subject of the post you replied to and cited Ryan. That’s why I replied as I did.

Bo Ryan was anything but mild mannered. He was at constant risk of stroking out at any moment.

Michigan-Wisconsin is a game I cannot bring myself to watch tomorrow.

I believe that if Medved grew up in Arizona or any of the 49 states other than Minnesota he would never be on anyone’s radar, including Coyle’s. The “one of us” angle is strong and it is real.

I realize I cite Coyle’s salary fairly frequently, but why the hell do you need to pay someone $1.4M annually to make the easiest, most predictable and uninspired hire he could make? I could offer the Gophers job to a career mid-major coach with local ties and he would accept it. There’s zero...

That record is near-elite, just not elite enough.

Davis didn’t write an article, it was a in-the-moment Tweet after we beat Nebraska at the buzzer. Seth wouldn’t waste time or column inches covering our program, no matter how elite the coach.

My opinion is that the soul has definitely been sucked out of Wrigleyville, which now more closely resembles an upscale suburban mall than its former funky, independent (and kind of seedy) self. But I think they did an excellent job with the ballpark itself, or as much as you do to modernize a...

Iowa City has both white AND eggshell skin tones, so they qualify.

But has he requested counsel from Billy Donavan?

That leadership just gave him a $300k/year bump through 2030. Seems like his strategy of marching to their tune has been more than bountiful for the AD.

It does take a mutual interest to make something like this work. We can't abduct him at gunpoint and force him into a 5-year contract (I don't think).

Honestly? So would I.

Coyle could pull the ultimate troll job and hire Fran.

Richard Pitino. He and Coyle will be like Ben and JLo, with a magnetic attraction to each other.

If the U does want to keep the Barn and renovate it, they should look no further than Welsh-Ryan Arena in Evanston for direction on how to do it right. Northwestern gutted the place, reducing capacity and creating better sight lines, expanded the concourses and modernized facilities like...

Because they’ve purposely blocked the memory of his 43-94 (.314) record coaching their favorite NBA team.

I’m guessing so Johnson didn’t have to travel back home with his team after losing his job. That would’ve been unnecessarily uncomfortable for all involved.

Charles has had this diatribe written and ready to go since March 2021. Hilariously predictable.
