It was massive but just got eliminated by DOGE.

Here’s the bracket. We play Wisconsin if we win. Get a new coach if we lose.

That’s got to mean the end of The Mayor’s tenure there.

In addition to the not insignificant NIL delta we'd have to address, Wade's a Southern guy and I'm guessing living in the great white North wouldn't be high on his list, especially if he has good P4 offers to stay in Dixie.

Keats wasn't elite.

Bringing Johnson back for year 5 will crater what minuscule interest remains in this program. It would be an egregious dereliction of Coyle’s duty to put Gophers athletics on the strongest possible footing competitively and financially.

Don't show this to Seth Davis. It runs contrary to his conclusions about the elite coaching job being done by the genius that is Ben Johnson.

And I'll be the first to tip my cap to you all for being rewarded for your insanely irrational optimism.

I didn’t see an option for “Are you effing kidding me? Hell no!” So I just voted No.

Sweet! Someday, through tears of joy, I can regale my grandkids with stories of the glorious 2024-25 Gophers basketball season where they heroically scratched and clawed their way into the Big Ten tournament's Wednesday games.

If he mismanages one of his major revenue sports into the dirt because of 10 years of inaction and bad judgment (5 years at the back end of Pitino--yes, I know he didn't hire him, and 5 of Johnson), then he absolutely should be measured in part on that. It's not like he has football, hockey or...

Were they also doing a lot of cocaine in the locker rooms?

Coyle, Mr “I didn’t come here to finish .500,” is an empty suit, and bringing Johnson back for an unearned 5th year will confirm just how inert he is as a leader and decision maker.

If Coyle does bring Johnson back for another year and it’s another one of mediocre performance and no tournament (as many observers from his first 4 years expect), then Coyle’s ass needs to be on the firing line, too. He’s solely responsible for letting this program die on the vine and needs to...

Sure, but the conference is a collective and negotiates as such. So, it does have a good deal to do with the Minnesotas and Marylands and Northwesterns and Rutgers and UCLAs that might not bring great on-field performance year-to-year, but they do bring large media markets that add big value for...

Football drives the billion dollar media deals that pay for everything. Basketball (and certainly not non-revenue sports) doesn’t.

You don’t build a growth portfolio on penny stocks.

The last time we had a QB drafted, that list was written on parchment paper and using a quill pen.

Lake Placid 1980 before USA-USSR. Minnesota coaches give legendary inspirational speeches in that room.

I always liked Richard, he was a good face for our program and I wish we could've experienced what he's doing at New Mexico. We just got him too early. Wishing him continued success.
