GopherSports Q&A with Ernie Wheelwright

[BleedGopher]

per GopherSports:

What is it you honestly miss most about the University?
No bills! Seriously, I miss being around my teammates. Being a student athlete. Going to different school events just the whole campus vibe of freedom.

If you could give the current student-athletes any piece of advice, what would it be?
Enjoy your time there and make the most of every moment. At the time, you really don't get to live in the moment. Once you get older, you start to realize how blessed you are to be a student-athlete at a big-time university like Minnesota.

Please share your favorite university or athletic event you've attended since you graduated and what made it so special to you?
Attending home football games and tailgating for the first time. It's great how the University lays out the red carpet for former players to come support Gophers Athletics. Also, how the fans still embrace former players.

This is the first thing that came to my mind when I say this thread.

I don't think he handled that very well. I understand why he would cheer for Wisconsin now but his comments were kinda like a big middle finger to Minnesota. Or it is at least easy to see why some people took it that way.

Dropped pass against UVA cost us the game.
