"The number one distraction in all their lives is their CELL PHONE. Being a student-athlete is a full time job and they need to treat it as such. I read them several studies about how much time the average person spends on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and other social media outlets. All too often, I walk into our locker room and see our players staring at their cell phones. Reading social media or texting on a consistent basis isn't going to help them get their degree or help us win a Big Ten Championship."

A blog about excessive social media, is it okay for the players to read that one? :)
 

"Thanks to Gorgui Dieng for stopping by our office and tour campus! He agreed with me that the University of Minnesota is a sleeping giant!"

Well stated, Coach.

Go Gophers!!!
 





I really like the blog. A great way to keep in touch with the fanbase.
