Seriously, how is this team still ranked? What is Sid one of the media voters on the AP or something? This team is lousy, and will be lucky to make it to the NIT. 3 more wins the rest of the year.

Closer to 123 then 23. When they lose to Iowa this weekend that will be the end of it for another miserable year in the land of Flubby.

The Gophers remind me of Apple stock. They finally reach the pinnacle and then tank.

MN should not be ranked - they stink. Teague is terrible for giving this coach an extension and huge buyout, so we're stuck with him indefinitely. Fortunately, I did not watch the last game, and I must say that it was my most enjoyable afternoon in a while. I strongly recommend it to Gopher fans on Tuesday night.

The rankings dont mean anything. This team needs to worry about getting better mentally (Rodney Williams) and physically (Mr Mbakwe). Just go play your games and let the guys try to run the offense, play solid D and the score will take care of itself. We will be back! GOPHERS

Two losses this week should take care of the rankings for the rest of this year.

I just finished watching the Gopher Women and Pam B. rivals Tubby for worst coach in the Big Ten. How many three's must the opposing team make before you do something? How about having a decent inbounds play? Tubby doesn't have one either. Blocking out on defense might help. The last couple of minutes of frantic basketball, with no purpose, is just like Tubby. So poorly prepared, I just can't believe these two have a job in the Big Ten.
