Interesting tweets from Trevor's former coach.

Playing Minnesota is going to be a huge battle this Saturday at AH. We need "all hands on deck" when it comes to our fans energy and passion

With Minnesota's improved shooting and a healthy Trevor they are the real deal in all areas. Tubby Smith and his coaches are high level.

In preparing for Minnesota we can see why they are winning like they are. Great rebounding, shot blocking, steals, help def. And scorers.

typical buttering up the opponent kinda stuff....What he won't tweet is this:

"Their 3 guards, while athletic and capable scorers are sloppy with the ball and can be forced into lots of turnovers."

"They have a tendancy to miss the front end of 1 and 1's and I think we can take advantage of Mbakwe's poor FT shooting."

"I think we can get some easy turnovers on their in-bounds plays...they really struggle to get the ball in."


Just once, I'd like to hear coaches not be afraid to give bulletin board material.

They shouldn't, and that's why you shouldn't bother listening to 'coach speak'.
 

Crean has been thinking about Minnesota alot (sic) since last weekend. A whole lot.

That will never get old. That was one of the creepiest/most pathetic texts ever. Whether it was to a 16 year old recruit, or a mistress, it was bad.

Go Gophers!!

Ha. Maybe the reason they don't is because it is plain stupid and serves them no benefit.
 

Now if I hear Tan Man Tom say the same thing about Nebraska, Northwestern, or Penn State, then I'll know for sure he's the next coming of Lou Holtz when it comes to talking up your next opponent.

You'd complain if they hung you with a new rope.

Why would he do that? Not something you would put out publicly. Also, he should be scared considering the age of our team. We will ride out this season on the backs of 6 year senior Mbakwe, and senior Rodney Williams, with other vets in Hollins', Coleman, EE, and even Welch/Oto/Mav. They are relatively battle tested.
