STrib: Punished Gophers football players are the news, not bowl talk

[BleedGopher]

per Joe:

Talk quickly pivoted from football to player suspensions Wednesday, when Gophers coach Tracy Claeys addressed the media at a prearranged Holiday Bowl news conference in San Diego.

One day after the university indefinitely suspended 10 players from all team activities, Claeys insisted this won’t be a distraction for the team’s Dec. 27 game against Washington State.

“Last I checked, it only takes 11 on each side of the ball, and two for special teams,” Claeys said. “So we’ve got enough left to do that, and we’ll get them prepared to go, and our kids will play hard.”

Wow. Just wow. That is one of the more unbelievable quotes I've ever seen.

Just admit it's a distraction and you're going to be spread thin, but that you're doing what you can to minimize the impact. Use this to promote the "next guy up" mantra.

Next time he says they are thin in any area and need depth I really hope the media holds him accountable by repeating this to him. What an asinine statement.

You must not have read many quotes in your life.

You're really going to get your undies in a bunch over that?
