    I'm trying not to be afraid of being excited

    I'm surreptitiously harboring a lot of optimism about this year's team. When I read that there's a difference between where the players were last year, and where they are now, I believe it. Kill's had a year to put in his system, his way of doing things, his work ethic, and I think the players...

    Sad News - UPDATED: Kill, Gray and U Chief of Police to address media at 2pm

    I have no sources on this but Michael Rand (@randball) just tweeted about "unbelievably sad news" coming from Gopher football. A check of his timeline and it could be some devastating news about Gary Tinsley. I hope it's not true and I don't want to start any rumors here. Has anyone heard...

    Sumlin to Illinois

    @wischlist: My sources are telling me that it's Kevin Sumlin to Illinois. Announcement could be coming within hours #illini #takethisforwhatitsworth Thoughts? I like this hire for them if true. Damn!

    Next Head Coach

    It's time to start talking about it. This season will LIKELY be a disaster without Mbakwe. At which point we COULD be looking at 2 very disappointing seasons in a row and after 5 years under Tubby, not even one tournament win to show for it. Next year's roster doesn't offer much hope either...

    I'm going to congratulate everyone

    Everyone of you die hard Gopher rubes out there. It's not easy to have an allegiance to a brand of such consistent ineptitude. If anyone could get excited about the outcome of that miscarriage of a college football game that was on display today-- from both teams-- at TCF Bank stadium, you...

    The Offensive Line is problem

    These guys got their asses handed to them by a makeshift NMSU dline. They aren't opening any holes. This was expected against USC, but against NMSU it's embarrassing. Sadly, there really isn't anything you can do about it this year. They don't have 5 guys who can move anybody. This is going...

    Barreiro on Tubby

    "TUBBY SMITH -- Imagine the relief of Gophers basketball fans when they picked up today's Star Tribune and discovered, finally, the Gophers head coach taking full, major, partial, any, OK, no responsibility for the team's failed 2010-11 campaign. A month after finishing 1-10, not making the NIT...

    What I've Heard

    Kill is pissed that Brewster gave scholly's to "best friends" of top recruits. He says we have 5, 6 guys that aren't fit for DI level football. He will absolutely not be doing any of that-- attempting to lure top recruits by giving a friend a scholly. I've also heard they're basically...

    Arkansas Recruits

    If Tubby is staying he should be doing everything in his power to sway one of those recruits to play for him...

    Next Year

    What's the line-up? PG Andre Hollins SG Austin Hollins SF Rodney PF Mbakwe (he'll test, but he has a lot to improve offensively before he's draftable) C Ralph ------------------ PF Walker C Colton SG Chip SG Coleman C Elliott PG Maverick PF Halvorsen SF Dawson ?? 3rd recruit...

    Twitter Threads

    Unless there is absolute breaking news, the over-reaction to these kids' tweets has to stop. Who hasn't complained about something they love? Let these kids vent, joke or say whatever they want to say. Let's all get off our "jump to conclusions mat" and live and let live.

    LaMichael James = smart

    He was a hair away from committing to the Gophers...really, really smart decision to switch to Oregon. I say this as a die-hard Gopher fan.

    Don't say Kill and Co. isn't working hard...

    8 AM staff meeting tomorrow on New Years Day...no partying tonight for those guys.

    MarQueis Gray + Kill

    With all due respect to Adam Weber, this team will be far better off with Gray playing QB in the shotgun making plays with his arm and his legs than it was with Weber under center. This change alone, regardless of the Head Coach will add wins. Brewster recruited Gray here but he failed to use...

    Kill is literally the exact opposite of Brewster

    Brewster was slick operating car salesman type who looked the part with no track record of success. I have no doubt he had good intentions here, but he was an arrogant blowhard. Kill is a no-nonsense blue collar guy who has won as a head coach. Completely opposite...I think that could be a...

    Dave Mona

    What kind of school puts one of their radio color commentator guys on the point for the new coaching search???? Honestly...f'n embarrassing. Why does Dave Mona have so much pull?? Who the hell cares what Dave Mona has to say about who should be the next coach?? Putting him on the search was...

    I can't take the drama anymore

    I can not remember a time in Gopher sports history where more sh*t hit the fan all at once than the last year for this program. The absurd the twist and turns we have gone though-- Royce White, Trevor, Cory Joseph, Royce White, Al's academics, Tubby rumors, Royce White, Paul Carter, Justin...

    Rodney Williams

    With the losses via graduation and transfers, Rodney Williams has been thurst into a very big spot for this team. The prospect of Rodney playing quality minutes is both exciting and scary. He obviously has the athleticism...he has enough of that to go to the next level. For me though the...
