How would you describe Jerry Kill in 1 word?

[JMWZ]

Tenacious

 

[GopherPop]

Brick

 

[WestTexasGopher]

Tough-as-nails (that's one word).

 

[GophersInIowa]

Good one. He IS the consummate coach.

First word I thought of as well. Coach on and off the field.

 

[JZsportswhiz]

Classy

 

[WaterBoy]

Driven

 

[gopherdudepart2]

Builder, Unique, Uncommon, Genuine, Sincere, Authentic, Driven, Coach, Disciplined, all come to mind. He will be missed. Know this coach Kill you have left a positive mark on this Gopher program, and moved it forward, as a Gopher football fan I thank you for that.

Honor.

 

[everybody knows my name]

Intense.

 

[Ski U Mah Gopher]

Survivor

 

[Deleted_User]

Familial.

 

[EG#9]

Determined

 

[Governor Sibley]

He only knew one way: he bull-dogged everything.

 

[LakerFan]

Stubborn

Not meant as an insult, more as a compliment.

Persistent rather than stubborn. Persistent as in water eroding rock, or building things brick by brick even though your starting below ground. Stubborn is me not donating my size 34 pants to the good will.

 

[Indiana Gopher]

Leader

 

[50PoundHead]

Determined

Mine as well.

 

[Ogee Ogilthorpe]

Coach.

Good one. He IS the consummate coach.

This was the first thing that came into my head as well.

Coach

Always will be.

 

[Torres9]

Awesome

Go Gophers!!

 

[Texas-Gopher]

MINNESOTA!

To me he embodies the values we want in ourselves and therefore want in our U and any person or team that represents it. Therefore the word I've always thought best describes him is MINNESOTA.

 

[BilldGopher]

...Coach...

I second.
