"Joel MAC-turi...Joel MAC-turi.....Joel MAC-turi....." I hope this guy from NIU does well, I really do. But at the end of the day, Joel has done nothing to sell this program in the past five years. He extended Mason contract, fired him a year later because we did not like mid-level bowl games...

I have my Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin, Four Square and everything else social open at this time. Anyone heard anything yet?

I found this link to some website (Bleacher Report). The person who wrote this referenced some things other people have said as well, and I am at a loss because I don't understand. 1. He talks about how much more talent Tim Brewster has than Glen Mason because of his ability to recruit. Forget...

Seth Davis on the Dan Patrick show this morning: "Everyone knows that Tubby Smith wants out of Minnesota." Not a great comment on a national radio show. Build the man a practice facility....please

Lets see...since "Brew" has brought his act to Minnesota, we have seen: 2007 - Brew take a mid-level bowl team and drive it into the ground with a 1-11 record (lets not forget the 0-8 Big Ten record that went with it). The season also included a loss to North Dakota State. 2008 - The magical...

As for the Big Ten adding a 12th school, this is my breakdown: Notre Dame - as for me, the heck with them. Until they can deal with reality and admit that they are no better than any other Big Ten school I don't want them and I don't think it will happen. Syracuse & Rutgers - Brings in the New...

Brewster's agent is fishing for someplace else for this guy to go because after next year he will need one.

Just a really stupid thought and I am not serious, but they might sell more tickets. It would also add more money to the pot as Iowa State could bus and not have to fly...teams could have a day at the Mall of America amusement park (whatever they call that thing now)...battle of the bands at the...

After seeing the video of Brandon Spikes, I do agree that he should be suspended for the first half of this week's game. But isn't ironic that he gets suspended, but nothing happens to the Georgia coach when he orders his team to run on the field and celebrate two years ago. Or that Urban Meyer...

It looked to me on TV that there were a number of empty seats in the upper deck on Saturday...is that the student section? If so, did the U oversell the student section?

What is the pulse for the rest of the season? I guess the way I see it is that we should have a chance to win the rest of our home games (Purdue, Michigan State, Illinois, South Dakota State), but a win in any of the road games (Penn State, Ohio State, Iowa) would obivously be considered a big...

I already know there has been a long thread on the Star Trib article, but I have a different question concerning the relationship between Joel and Brew. I look to those of you on this board that are "insiders" to the athletic department because I don't have any first-hand knowledge of the...

I will be the first to say that adding Texas and USC is a good move. But outside of that, the non-conference schedule has not changed that much. UNC is a good addition to the schedule and did they replace Colorado? I remember Colorado being added before Brewster got to the U, but I don't see...

Gary Russell and Laurence Maroney have each scored the first TOUCHDOWN in the last two Super Bowls. I am not sure, but I can not imagine another college program making the same claim. In fact, I wonder the last time a school had alums score TDs in consecurtive Super Bowls at any time during the...

Did anyone read this week's Sports Illustrated and the story about college football recruiting. They showed a map of the US breaking down by state and county the number of kids that signed NLIs to play at a BCS school from 2004-2008 (five classes). If you break it down, it gives a good...

Is it me or does Fox Sports' coverage stink. Percy Harvin gets a cheap shot and they go to commercial - even after you can hear the Gator fans groan in the stands after the stadium replay. I can not wait until ABC/ESPN has the BCS broadcast.

Is it just me, or does anyone else think it is strange that you can not find the press release or statement from Brewster on gophersports.com that went out about the coordinators leaving the Gophers. I can not imagine that the Tribune or anyone else has taken Brewster's statement word-for-word...
