We should all be troubled.....especially Coyle
Who is Korzo?
Scott Korzenowski was a local beat writer a few decades ago and is now a fairly prominent defense attorney in the Twin Cities. He was a regular on 1500, hosted Gopher Basketball Weekly with Spencer Tollackson on Saturday mornings and is now on KFAN. He absolutely is plugged in and knows his stuff.

Mediocre programs quit, mediocre programs create excuses for losses, mediocre programs get criticized by local high profile recruits, mediocre programs finish under 500 in B1G..
Are you Korzo? I suspect you are personally in tune with mediocrity. Thanks for sharing from your own experience.We should all be troubled.....especially Coyle
We prefer "Double Espresso." We've supported it for years...KFAN Korzo says Coffee will NEVER return to Minnesota
Do I have to drive to Wisconsin for my morning cup?
My thoughts exactly. Never heard of the bastard
The truth really causes such defensive reactions from the University of Minnesota coolaid drinkers.....
Wow......if they would allow me to post a poll, which they won’t.....who would you rather have as coach
Pitino
Hoiberg
Musselman

I bet Pitino would get a resounding 3rd place vote with other close behind
Oh, I don't know, probably for the same reason most people who leave a school after two or three years complete the semester: to finish the credits they started. I would think finishing the semester particularly would be encouraged by his educated parents who live in the area. If he's going to finish his degree some day, having fewer credits remaining would help.
Aggressively challenging people with stupid questions isn't much of a challenge and the challenge isn't enhanced by throwing around the word "troll."

The Coffey dad believed his son was one and done(no chance)...........so it's Pitino's fault apparently (anyone close to the program knows this)
The Hurt dad believed his older boy was going to tear it up here(should be at Winona State)(anyone close to the program knows this)............that's Pitino's fault apparently.
I'm actually excited to get these two dads out of the mix. They are starting to bore the schit out of people.
By the way, Coffey had the ball in his hands all season. What the hell more could he want?
I'm most troubled by the OP having a car an an avatar. What are you, 10?
What does this have to do with the post? It's mediocre that Coffey allegedly hates Pitino? Or it's mediocre that Pitino allegedly stopped recruiting a guy that clearly is going elsewhere?

With all due respect, I'm seeing a lot of "blame the messenger" on this board when it comes to Gopher sports.
Anyone who says or reports anything that's perceived as negative is called a troll, or has an agenda.
Look, I have no inside info. Korzo could be wrong - but he could be right.
Taking a broader approach - let's say Korzo is right, and Coffey has a bad relationship with his coach. What does that say about the program? this is - or at least could be - bigger than one player. Ignoring problems does not make them go away.
bottom line - the Matthew Hurt comments, and now the Coffey story are concerning, to say the least.
Suggesting that all is not right with the program does not make you a troll or a hater. It does not mean you want the coach or the program to fail. It may mean you want the program to succeed, and you're questioning whether the program is on the right path to success.
Coffey played 83% of his minutes available and scored 25% of the teams points while taking 23% of the teams shots. His shooting % was third among common starters. I think he got a chance to play this year.
He also got the chance to show off his point guard skills. Seems like a ridiculous argument if true.
Where are people getting this "he wants the ball more" argument?
In the OP he specifically stated that Coffee, allegedly, doesn't like Pitino and the style of play
What could he not like about the style of play? The pace is reasonably fast and he gets the ball a lot and runs the offense through him. I guess he could want to play off the ball? Shoot it less? That's not common, but who knows?
Coffey doesn't strike me as the type to care as long as he's getting his shots which he certainly did.Where are people getting this "he wants the ball more" argument?

What style of play did he think he was signing up for?Where are people getting this "he wants the ball more" argument?

You seem troubled enough for all of us
