I'm a Robinson fan, but I'm betting people more important than me aren't fans. To his credit, he has toned down the Title IX banter and that has helped, but I worried for him when the housing fiasco made the news.
Dismiss J. Robinson...are you insane! J. runs the most successful athletic program that the Gophers have enjoyed over the past two decades. Maybe the football program, and other programs, could stand to learn a thing or two from J. -- discipline, commitment, resolve, work ethic, winning attitude, consistency -- just like the Navy Seals have from their time spent working with J and the wrestling program. Frankly, I'm tired on hearing that the problem with the major revenue sports is the non-revenue sports, which is an absolutely ridiculous notion. Last I looked, Wisconsin, Penn State, Ohio State, and Nebraska have darn good non-revenue sports programs, in addition to their major programs. It's NOT an either or proposition.
And yes, I am a former Gopher Wrestler and damn proud of it!
Go Gophers!
