I'd have to disagree with the geography thing too. In fact the TC has far more to offer than any of those cities, not to mention greater MN. Granted 18 yr old kids have a different perspective than 30-40 retired professional athletes but MN has become home to quite a few athletes who have played for MN teams. If you create a quality program they will play here.

I'm late here because I've been gone, but I would just say that I am ecstatic about this hire. Tubby has 10 straight 20 win seasons, can't recruit my hiney! This is huge, I am just shocked the U pulled this off. I was just reminiscing last Thursday when I was at the state high school tourney watching Luverne about how fun it used to be going to Gophers games at the barn and the place would just be a mad house. I can't wait for Tubby to bring that back. GO GOPHERS!!!!

I've said that many time, but then why are these kids not coming here. Maybe its the great journalism at the Pioneer Press and channel 9. Or lack of it at other colleges. I don't promote cheating in class, but lets be real here. You know it happens everywhere! The question is do you want to win or don't you.

I wonder what Kentucky thinks of their decision to fire Tubby now? Gillespie is out after 2 years and none of the big names will leave their schools to go to Lexington. KY lost for the first time in like 20 years in the first round last year, and lost in the second round of the NIT this year (Run of consecutive NCAA tournament postseason appearances since 1991 ends). And Gillespie was a lightning rod with the media and fans.

Who's next for KY? A 22-14 loss season was the 2nd most losses in the school's over 100 year history.

I agree that this is a good hire for Minnesota, and probably better than what was expected, but just to put a different spin on it, here is an article I found on CBS.

Reading this article is quite compelling and pretty much completely accurate.

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
