Hell Yeah!!!

I like the fact that coaching Minnesota is Niko’s destination job, not a stepping stone to somewhere else. He wants to be here.

 

[everybody knows my name]

Did Rome call him Chrissy Evert?

If he called him Nikki, our boy would've slapped the sh!t out of him.

Medved almost said it. He almost said the league has fallen on hard times. We need to find those tough kids who play with fire day in and day out. He sees the league has fallen from its glory days. Let him find those Voshon Leonard's. I wish he would.

It’s national interviews like this that are so important to a program like Minnesota. I don’t recall Ben getting interviewed by any national sports shows when he was hired… I hope it helps that Nico‘s kind of a hot name coming off this past season.

Fleck on Rome a lot, wonder if he connected Niko for some visibility.

We should play Wisconsin Green Bay and get on another radio show.

Rome’s massive summer house is just around the bend from my sister’s in Eagle River. See him hanging out by the lake at his fire pit a lot when I’m up there. He’s always friendly and loves the Northwoods.

Remember Vo's shot at the buzzer in the Iowa overtime game? The crowd went berserk. Talk about decibals! Never forget that game!

Where is Eagle River?

Where is Eagle River?

Just north of Rhinelander, Wisconsin. There is a large chain of lakes (find Three Lakes on the map) that connect via channels. Think the lakes in Minneapolis, but many more. It's an area filled with Chicago folks and million dollar cabins.

Not cabins, palaces. There are some incredible homes on the chain. Rome’s is beautiful.
