The Gophers have dealt poorly with success and reacted negatively to failure, but there’s one more regular-season chance to learn.

I believe they are one of the best teams in the country too. Tubby clearly has to go.

Whenever Sir Sidney predicts you'll win something, expect a disappointment. He said two years ago they/the Gophers would battle for the Title, they didn't. He said this year they would, they haven't. Sid has a great track record of predicting losing seasons and having questionable personal friends.

Shoot 80% from the foul line, 45% from inside the arc, and 34% from outside the arc. What do you get? Wins! The game is "basketball", by definition; "put the ball in the basket"! If they do that, Tubby is "genius", and all the negativity on the program disappears.

What world are living in when you have these kinds of stats and say that you are one of the best teams in the country? Can I get some of that stuff?

Tubby is a very good man. Tubby is not a great coach. As much as I dislike the Badgers, under Bo Ryan they always get better as the season goes on. With Tubby that is not the case. You can not lose games on the road vs. Northwestern, Iowa, Nebraska. The Gophers will lose at Purdue today because they are on the road. I did the total buy in on this team, hoping for the best. The Gophers lose today and they could finish in 9-10th place. 8-10 B1G record does not justify the salary the U is paying Tubby.

"Gophers are searching for answers.....", sounds like Kaler will have to hire another consulting firm to figure out what the rest of us already know. How do people like Kaler, Brunicks, Maturi,Gordon, Brewster Tubby, Tubby's son etc. get these creampuff jobs....I forgot, nepotism is alive and well at the U.

Tubby and his coaches have to go. This team does have talent but under Tubby's half court offense they have gone down hill. His starting the senior lineup in the Nebraska game was a hug mistake. Not only that but he played Welch down the stretch. In the Indiana game he did not play and the results showed.
