The year one blues has got this board in a downward spiral. I'm surprised there isn't a "Fire NIko" thread yet.

FFS ..... Get a grip guys.

This guy can coach. He has had more injuries than I can remember this team ever having and he is still competing. (might have been a Pitino/Tubby year that was close)

We will be better soon.

ALL HAIL NIKO!
 


What?!?! You’re reading way too much into reactions.

But let’s be honest. This loss sucked. For the first time in B10 play, we had the better talent and responded with a lousy first half. Kudos to the guys for rallying, but at the end of the day we did just enough to lose, which is now a pattern. I am still very bullish on Medved, as is nearly everyone here, but this was a very Ben-era style loss. If the board didn’t respond to this loss to some extent in the same way it responded to similar losses under Ben, it wouldn’t be right

Wait, what?! FFS, what are you talking about?

Nearly all are optimistic about Niko and understand he needs better talent. That doesn't mean we're not frustrated we've lost 7 straight BT games. And yesterday is a loss we can't have. The frustration after yesterday is understandable.

Weird OP.

Go Gophers!!

Doesn't seem like there's any spiral here. Think most people are pretty optimistic.

Agreed. I think most of us knew what was most likely coming this year. We're also seeing what a talented coach can bring to the table in regards to schematics and getting the most out of his talent.

From what I've seen so far this season, it's even better than I expected from Niko and this team. Moral victories mean nothing to me. I find enough satisfaction knowing we have a competent coach taking us in a different direction.

Now we just need to help Medved build a better roster if the U really cares about this program. It would be money well invested with a guy like Niko running the show.

Outside of the typical malcontents on this board I don't think anyone is down on the hire.

Doesn't mean the losing streak isn't frustrating as hell, especially when a bunch of the losses could have been wins had things broken slightly differently.
 

I'm pretty optimistic that Medved can get us back to being a winning program.
It looks like the lack of depth it catching up with us, we did so much to get the game back to even but didn't have enough to get us to the finish line.
I hope the losses aren't starting to take their toll on the team psyche, we need a win bad. Lets see how we bounce back against MSU.
 

In the Wisconsin game we had 6 scholarship players out. Wisconsin had none and we played em tight. It is what it is this year, I am hopeful for next year. But I have been hopeful for the next year for the last 6 and it hasn't worked out yet. I think Niko changes that cycle, but I am an optimist that nothing ever good happens in sports to.
