Next Gopher Head Coach

[stocker08]

Serious question.....which B1G conference head coaches would you NOT be willing to trade for Ben Johnson today?

You like Holtmann too?

 

[Ewert86PC]

Right now the only requirement I have for our next head coach is that he has actual Division I head coaching experience, ffs.

Ok. thanks for the response.

I think Holtmann is a decent coach, yes.

If we lose for a 5th straight time on Saturday, pull the plug and let Thorson coach out the string.

You guys and your new coach BS! You really want to star all over? Cause everyone will transfer! Coaches can’t make the damn free throws! Go Gophers

It's tough man, you can literally flip a team in 1 year nowadays with the transfer portal.

Not sure how I feel about the long leashes like what we're giving Ben. And by that, I mean I don't feel good.

Let's extend him based on almost winning tonight!

Some may transfer anyways after seeing that they can’t win with Ben as a coach

Guys will transfer anyway. And then a lot will transfer when Ben is fired a year from now. And we're not that good. What are we clinging to? A good coach will bring some talent with him.

2nd year South Carolina HC Lamont Paris just beat #6 Kentucky by almost 20. Why accomplish anything when we might be able to in year 4!

The moral victories are mounting.

A 9-38 (and counting) conference record might be a little more complicated than just "making the damn free throws".

Interesting overhauled 8 new players year 1 and 16-3 year two.....hmmm.....Yes he had prior D1 HC experience

 

[Spaulding!No!]

Racists!

Add in the fact that Talon Cooper is playing a major role for them.

Had 20, 6 and 5 tonight in the win over Kentucky.

Still saying Musselman will be available after this season.

Chance we go 0 for 3 over our next 3 games........

We have been starting over each year for the last three years. Let's get a new face peering into the portal and see if the results change.

Coyle is too proud to admit he failed.

Bingo. Johnson will get next season to show that he built a team that can compete for an NCAA Tournament bid.

 

[Spaulding!No!]

Expecting a doogie column re: Ben’s doom to rise like the ghost of Donny Most.

And that is the U of M in nutshell.

Idiots

With a big night from Cooper, who you know, wasn't good enough to play here.

Amazing what competent roster construction and coaching can do in a short amount of time.

It will be exciting to see what a night and day difference a new coach does for the Gophers next season.

 

[kg21]

Yep, even when they are wrong they are right.

Where have I heard this from you before?

Maybe not "available" but getable.

 

[Gophers7633]

If your defense to keep Johnson is because of this SO class, I present to you:

52 minutes, 6-17fg, 0-4 from 3, 4-8ft. JOJ played 5 minutes. Carrington hasn't improved IMO and PP basically is what he was last year.

 

[howeda7]

Coyle is too proud to admit he failed.

"The Committee" failed, and the leader of it is long gone. Time to clean up the mess.

 

[howeda7]

If we go 5-15 or 6-14, "give me one more year we're so close!" is beyond an absurd thing to sell.

Just a wasted year if we run it back. Would make no sense.
