    KFAN's Paul Chryst fiasco

    Has anyone been listening to KFAN at all since the Jerry Kill hire? Now I understand a lot of people don't seem to like KFAN on these boards. I in fact do, it is my favorite radio station. However, KFAN incorrectly announced Paul Chryst would be the next head coach of the Gophers, a few hours...

    Donnell Kirkwood

    Anyone else excited to see this kid in a run heavy-Jerry Kill-offense? I thought he looked good in the short time he played before injury. Kill has coached kids such as Chad Spann (1330 yards 20TD's), Michael Turner (1915 yards, 19TDs) and Garrett Wolfe (1976 yards and 18TDs) I think he will...

    Kill was the best amongst those truly interested

    I have posted this a couple of times and no one seems to respond to this. I direct this to most of the Kill haters out there. Kill was the best person who had true interest in the job and that is not a slight on the Gophers team. Several of our coaching candidates turned down other jobs. Now...

    If Kill how many said no?

    It seems to me that if Kill is the guy as recent rumors say he is how many people said no? Also, I would nope Maturi would realize where Gopher football stands nationally if he got turned down by a dozen candidates. 1.) Petersen - No 2.) Harbaugh - No 3.) Patterson - No No surprise with...

    Please argue with my logic

    So this is the reasoning. Its not groundbreaking or earth shattering, but I want to know why I am wrong. If the coach is not named by Monday-Tuesday next week (as a show of good faith I will say Wednesday even) then it HAS to be Brady Hoke. They are simply waiting for the buyout to go down...

    If reports are true may Maturi have no other choice?

    I was just thinking. Now I don't believe all the rumors I have been hearing, but after Barrerio's show today I got pretty depressed. Justin Gaard reported that Edsall, Cryst, Calhoun, Hoke and Golden have all turned us down. This is not the first person to report this. Now maybe these...

    Dienhart's live chat

    Tom Dienhart did a live chat today on Rivals.com, and he had this to say when asked about the Minnesota coaching job: "I have been told Hoke has pulled out. Also told Al Golden and Randy Edsall have interviewed. This could be settled by this time next week. Maturi has said he wanted a proven...

    "Home Run" or "Tubby Smith" hire

    As most on these boards are aware by now, the most recent batches of rumors state the Gophers are down to three top candidates. Allegedly, Maturi and Dave Mona were on a plane with a destination of California. One can only assume that those two are going to interview SDSU coach Brady Hoke...

    Not much news, but somewhat intriguing

    Doogie just shot out a tweet: "coaching update from a source tonight: Sumlin is still very much in the mix... as is Temple's Al Golden. Should know more this week" Sumlin has to be the front runner. He has been at the forefront of rumors even before Brewster was fired and he is still hanging...

    Golden on ESPN 2

    Even though I don't think he is coming to Minnesota, Al Golden's Owls are currently playing on ESPN 2 against Ohio. They are trailing 7-0 at the start of the second.

    Minnesota Coaching Candidate: Randy Shannon (The Daily Gopher)

    I want nothing to do with Randy Shannon and I don't consider him a real candidate, but I have posted all these so far. Shannon has struggled at one of the best football Universities in the nation with top recruits. How would he handle mediocre Big Ten Country? Minnesota Gopher Coaching...

    Minnesota Coaching Candidate: Phil Fulmer (The Daily Gopher)

    Wouldn't complain about this one. Phil Fulmer is the latest hot name to be mentioned for the Gophers head coaching vacancy. It seems every week we get a new guy who is almost definitely-probably-certainly-maybe-absolutely-according to multiple sources close to the coach who may or may not...

    Minnesota Coaching Candidate: Mike Belloti (The Daily Gopher)

    In my opinion he should be a top candidate! Let's take a closer look at former Oregon Ducks head coach and current E!SPN analyst Mike Bellotti. As you'll see, Bellotti has been ridiculously successful at a BCS conference school, and yet is never one of the first names mentioned among Gopher...

    Minnesota Coaching Candidate: Troy Calhoun (The Daily Gopher)

    Love this guy. I just don't think he would leave the good thing he has going at the Air Force Troy Calhoun is the favorite, or at least near the top of the list, for many Gopher fans. He has good offensive experience and I'd find it hard to believe that anybody being considered a candidate...

    Golden Gopher Coaching Candidate - Brady Hoke (The Daily Gopher)

    I actually like the idea. He turned what was a god-awful Ball State team into a top 25 team. Golden Gopher Coaching Candidate Profile - Brady Hoke by GopherNation on Oct 25, 2010 2:32 PM CDT in Gopher Football More photos » Denis Poroy - AP San Diego State head coach Brady Hoke (AP...

    Minnesota Coaching Candidate: Al Golden (The Daily Gopher)

    For what its worth....

    PA is on with "Big Ten Football Guy" and PA just said.... "I was at the Timberwolves/Pacers game and talked to a very prominent Golden Gopher booster and he said it was quote 'Trestman's job to lose' at this point." "Now that is just his opinion, he didn't say it was anything official from...

    Star Tribune memorable quotes

    According to the Star Tribune here are the top quotes from Brewster during his 3 1/2 years. IN BREWSTER'S WORDS Tim Brewster will be remembered as much for his verbal hyperbole as his coaching. Here are five memorable Brewster quotes: "We're going to win the Big Ten championship and we're...
