Official


I'm excited. I think he's going to work hard, I think he's going to an exciting product on the floor and I think he's going to be successful. Welcome Coach Pitino.
 

A gamble but a gamble that may pay off for the future of Gopher Basketball!

If he is a genius, what's his dream job. Who's he going to leave us for? (Richard Pitino:x::Lou Holtz:Notre Dame)
 



Have not see this much naïve unbridled enthusiasm since Tim Brewster was hired.

Or a gamble that loses the Big MN 3 and sets us back even further w/o any Tourney appearances.

Man are you negative...I get it you liked tubby but he's gone. Time to move on and hope that things will get better under the new regime.
 





It can't be official until he's spotted at Sex World.
 

Nobody should judge this hire on whether he lands the big three. If he does then great but if not he deserves the chance to show what he can do regardless. I would say he same for any coach. And btw I don't think an AD should make a hiring decision based on recruits either.

Ohhhhhh disagree...he needs to come in and recruit the living crap out of the Big 3. If this Sun Belt guy let's all three cross the border the Tubby....sorry... I mean the Richard Bashers will be out in full force.
 

Fu%k off, Sparky. Please leave this board. There is nothing left here for you.
 

People that are obsessed with getting the big three don't understand recruiting or those types of kids. They don't care about Minnesota like fans, they just want to get there business done so they can go to the NBA. They have no allegiance to Minnesota, and we won't get any of them. Who cares! We'll get more maliable players who actually want to play college basketball!

I'm sure he will recruit them hard. If he gets none but we win a conference title in the next four years, will it matter to you? I doubt it.

Ooh! In an attempt to sound cultured, THE SCOUT! whips out the dieresis.


...It's not very effective.

Let's see how many times Tim Brewster can be mentioned now that the Ryan Saunders,Saul Smith telethone is over. Heaven forbid Gopher fans show any positive enthusiam for a hire most national pudits think was very good.

So now we like the media and value their opinion because they are saying what we want to be true. But when they don't, they are hacks, lazy, etc..

The main hacks in my book are local media. The divide between them and national types over this hiring seems strange. Of course the national media doesn't spend it's time reliving the life and times of Tim Brewster or Saul Smith's nights on the town.
