Mark Coyle: The Gophers' Michael Scott

100% right. Madison is as cold as Minnesota or close. They commit to winning. We don't.

I know this is the basketball board and they are on a different planet than us in hoops but it’s worth mentioning that we have stronger programs in 2 of the 3 biggest sports right now.

Interesting conclusion but has nothing to do with the replay I made to the comment regarding the UoM administration being clowns and that successful sports programs raise the tide of the entire school- alumni, academics, prestige etc. As far as communist influence from the university I don't see any difference between MN and WI.

I hope your kids learned how to read and interpret sarcasm.

Thank you. I thought all the emoji's made it obvious.

My non student athlete kids selected a land grant university based on sports.

LOL. Was that comment sarcastic too?

If I write a sarcastic comment I normally add "sarcasm", so the reader know.

I hope you disowned them.

Tried. But the spouse vetoed my actions.

He was "full-time" as an assistant. Obviously, vocabulary isn't a strength of yours.

Goetz's contract make him incredibly cheap to fire. Without that, he may not have been.

Dear God.....full time as an assistant is a tad different than full time as the head coach. He never should've been the head coach. Super.....made him cheap to fire. Thanks for wasting the entire 2016 season. The program recovered in November 2018.

This might be the funniest comment you've ever made.

Winning football/bb was one of the major reasons all 3 of my kids attended Madison after growing up going to gopher FB/BB games. And they went to games during the clem/tubby era so not like the recent era of Pitino/CBJ. The academics were arguable better too.

That and their drinking problem.

You failed as a parent.
