McCollum - Medved Rivalry

[Oatmeal Savage]

I’m excited about the start of the season and the start of the Niko regime. This is definitely the right place for him and I think he’s the right coach for us.

That being said, I’m curious to see how things play out south of the border. The algorithms served me up this (and preview of Gophers-Iowa football). Iowa is definitely the right place for him. It’ll be interesting to see if he’s right for Iowa. For the sake of a good rivalry, I hope so.

Medved and McCollum both have a decent amount of head coaching experience at lower levels, the one year of Drake seasoning, and both were hired the same year to take over the Big Ten programs they care about that need a shot in the arm to return them to the glory days they remember.

A rivalry has to be competitive, so the games can be close, we can be near each other in the standings, and we can both make the NCAA tournament. But let’s beat them in the games, edge them out in the standings, and advance at least one round further each time.

McCollum is not unlikable an Iowa coach. Angry Fran was better in that regard.

I just want to be good enough to be a rival with anyone again! We haven't finished ahead of wisconsin in the BT standings since the Final Four. Would love our traditional football rivals to be our traditional basketball rivals again, but it's up to Medved to earn that right.

Go Gophers!!

Their records prove that they are both capable CFB coaches. It will all come down the the one that recruits the best players that fit their system.
