Hah. Good one!
Do you remember 2010-2011? He is the only PG we have. We'd be a McBreyer or Coffey injury away from a complete disaster.

Are you forgetting that he’s coaching.....Nebraska basketball? His performance is similar to Glen Mason in Gopher football. Not the god you want to bronze, but the best thing you’ve had in a long while.
JM also went 4-4 from the line to seal the gameThe testament to just how good Murphy is, is in the fact that a line of 18 points and 13 rebounds doesn't even stick out to us anymore as we have just come to expect that out of him. That is a great night for pretty much any player, for Murphy it is just another day at the office. Staying out of foul trouble was huge though for him because this team is really good when he is on the court.
Coffey was unreal tonight, that is the kind of player he can be, hopefully the light is finally going on and he will begin to take over games the way he did in this one.
The way this game started I thought we were in for a long night. Awesome to see the team battle back and get the W against a fringe top 25 team. Great bounce back after the game a couple nights ago in Columbus.
But they do need to understand that people pointing out their poor behavior are not being malicious and if they feel picked on, then it is only because they are slow to improve their behavior in ways people recognize.

We've had plenty of reasons to kick people off the team the last 5 years, and he's far from any of that.
Absolutely agree about Washington, of course; the guy who said that is an idiot. I've also thought that two players who were kicked off in the past (Morris and Lofton) could have been handled differently.

Actually, tying his history of poor body language to his reaction to the passing of Dupree's mother is the wild stretch. The message his body language sends lends itself to being interpreted as self-centered, which is why he needs to work on it. Once he shows that change, then these wild stretches of behavior speculation on internet boards will stop being taken seriously.Just trying to point out that they've been known to be good friends. Basing rash assumptions off one interaction on camera and relating it to Dupree's mother passing is just plain wild.

Hard-earned win and yes, the team got a bit lucky to pull it out
Hard-earned win and yes, the team got a bit lucky to pull it out. Nothing wrong with that!
I think Nebraska will finish top 5 in the league this year and will probably blow our doors off in Lincoln. They lost focus at the end but they meet the eye test. Maybe Miles best team in NE.
As for the Gophers...we held serve at home...whew!. Coffey finally lets everyone know it is HIS team and he is the Alpha. Thank God for AC tonight!
IW looked good when he was in but can't pout. Pitino played the guys he thought gave us the best chance to win.

Tony Bennett would have Nebraska winning the B1G by now. (And losing in the first round of the NCAA's).![]()
I just can't believe this is the response to a must win game. They didn't punch first in the first half and they didn't punch first in the second half. A poorly coached soft team.
Tony Bennett’s team had two turnovers - TWO - the entire game at top 25 Maryland last week. That is freakin amazing. They also had like 7 or 8 team fouls total, the entire game.
I don’t know what he’s doing in practice to teach those guys discipline, but it works.
Big win, maybe one we didn't deserve. But a HUGE game by Coffey. We need him to play with that intensity every night.
In a game like that IW is such a defensive liability you can't afford to give him extended minutes, sit him down and have him watch Coffey play defense, get half of that and he plays.

I’ve got tens of dollars on the gophs. Daddy needs a new pair of shoes.
And both were illegal screens, no ball turnovers ! People can point to March failure all they want but he has a elite eight, multiple sweet 16's, 3 ACC titles and 2 ACC tourney titles. Those are much harder than winning the big 10. Calling him a good coach is laughable because on this board people call Miles a really good coach. When those you love as coaches win even one conference title or even one national coach of the year award let me know, I will be cheering for it. In the meantime you love a coach who has won about 30 of 90 conference games.Tony Bennett’s team had two turnovers - TWO - the entire game at top 25 Maryland last week. That is freakin amazing.

Well my voice is completely gone after tonight's game. The crowd sure was rockin' when the Gophers finally made their run later in the 2nd half. Love it when players from the opposite team look around dazed and blown away during timeouts when the rouser is damm near shaking the floor...![]()
