Theres no doubt the big ten is the best conference in the country.... but the gophers are losing to EVERYONE. Including northwestern, getting blown out by Iowa, not even showing up to play tonight..... And guess what, they play indiana next. This is turning into a horror show. If they lose to Penn St. or Nebraska Tubby should retire and give back his ludicris salary. There is no reason this team should look this bad regardless of what kind of talent you think they have. This is Tubby's 6th season, these are all HIS guys. If you think this is the best we can do Dr J, then thats sad. Look what Bo Ryan does with a bunch of no-name white guys. No matter how good of a coach you think he is, he isnt worth what hes getting paid and deserves the boot. I hope the new A.D. has the cahonez to do it.

Turn this loss into "Happy time"

When your team is too slow

And the morale has gotten too low

When the game moves too fast

And the stamina just can't last

When it's time to retreat after another defeat

And the solution you know is to move your feet

Put a smile on your face and take a chance

Turn up the music and do the "Tubby lockeroom dance".

The talent is on this team to be much, much better than it is. Mbakwe will get a chance at the NBA and I bet and NBA team invites Rodney to camp as well. Austin because of his length could get a sniff and Dre if he improves some might too (although improving under Tubby is not likely). as stated, Flubby himsself said this was his most talented team. And that results in 30 point losses. How could anyone obviously defend that?

Tubby has no results to fall back on. He has accomplished nothing here. Just look at his record and his tourney success. 6 years of mediocrity is not acceptable.

The B1G is the best conference this year. All the pundits agree on this. Take a tlook at how many times Mich St was in the final four. over the last 15 years. Better than almost everyone. It ebbs and it flows but the B1G is solid and this year better than any other conference.

He was spot on in the article. Pretty much word for word about where MN sits popularity wise in the Big 10.

Yeah... and if they had a better coach and a better record over the last six years they would sit higher in that order. Tubby has accomplished about as much as Dan Monson in his tenure so far.

The injuries and transfers and Royce White issues probably saved Tubby from being exposed. He always had an excuse. This year is different.

Had Royce played, he might have been able to turn the program around.

They play #1 ranked Indiana on Tues. At least they are at home. Thing is to me they can compete with any team if they play up to their potential. This is what the coach does. Brings out the player's potential. That just doesn't happen here.

As a fan I would like to see Tubby pack up and don't let the door hit ya on the way out.

Option 1: Gophers get up by 10 early, then Tubby does first substitution, Indiana ties it in 2 minutes, then Creen runs a press or zone and Indiana wins by 30.

Option 2: Gophers put up 4 points in the first 10 minutes but only give up 8. Then gophers keep running ball around top of key until they turn it over or throw up a desperation shot. Rim breaks, basketball goes backwards 30 years.
