Script surrounding Gophers athletics is all too familiar, & so is the painful fallout
per Chip:
These news conferences, sadly, have become routine. Here we go again.
You know the drill: University of Minnesota athlete, coach or athletic director gets in trouble. School official stands up at news conference to face questions. Another stain on their image. Clock restarts until the next episode.
Gophers athletics can’t escape this stuff. Can’t get out of their own way. Not even when things look promising and excitement is starting to build and the athletic department has genuine momentum that feels refreshing.
Naturally, along comes trouble. Another mess resulting in more ugly headlines that will make their way to national websites and college sports roundups in newspapers from coast to coast.
