He's going to be a busy guy doing all 3 of those jobs at a low-resource FBS program, but it's fantastic experience that puts him on the head coaching (or GM) track at a relatively young age.

Go David!

Such a good player. Not surprised that he's been succeeding with his coaching career thus far.

He could fall backwards for 2 extra yards better than any running back I've seen.

He was the first of many jump cut kings that we have had as Gophers.

Great success story. IIRC, he was in the doghouse with Kill for various reasons early in his career but obviously turned things around, had a great career, and has apparently gone on to become a great coach. Congrats to him!

I love reading these kind of stories. It reminds me that as a long-suffering Gopher fan we have had the privilege to watch some real high-character men come through our program. GoGophers!

My question is why the freak is he not on our Gophers staff??
