flafan, you really need to get a life. Your posts are childish at best. Since this University football program isn't going away and since in all your posts are derogatory about the U, I then have one serious question for your, In you opinion, what does the U of M need to do. Please, no childish jibberish. I just want to see if you have the brain you think you do when it comes to sports. My guess is that you don't.

There's no doubt he's a very good receiver, and I hope that he gets the national attention he deserves.
But then I hope he'll continue getting the catches that deserve the national attention.

I just hope that the blow to the head that Decker took on Saturday, doesn't cause him to move to Umatilla Florida to become an obnoxious loser. It's happened in the past.

You are correct, 5-1 is a terrible disaster. I mean the great flood of Biblical times was pretty bad, the stock market buy-out, not so good either. But this football program with it's paltry five wins and a new stadium on it's way and a loyal and appreciative and growing fan base, it's right up there with black monday.

Let's not go crazy, 4 of those games were against complete joke programs. If the kid can put the numbers up against Big Ten talent, which excludes Indiana cause they stink, then we can talk about national attention.

They need to get serious about winning and quit accepting mediocrity at best. Florida fired Zook when he went 7-4, MN would put him in the hall of fame. Wisconsin did it, Illinois is doing it and even NU went to the Rose Bowl. Win BT games and keep winning, get a top notch coach and AD who demands winning. They have 40 years of failure to overcome

Are you serious? Why did they fire Glen Mason if they were content with mediocrity? He would beat up Little Sisters of the Poor College and win 2-3 big 10 games and that's about it.

Tim Brewster was brought in to take the program up to a Wisconsin/Michigan/Ohio State level. He may not succeed but let's give the guy 4-5 seasons, especially with the improvement shown this year. Who knows, they may already be back to Glen Mason-esque, not bad for the 2nd season of a program. I hope he succeeds. But some people wish for failure and not success.

Hey moron, why don't you use your flafan name? Coward. You are a twisted f--k.

Now, to address your comment. Are you really this dumb? You talk about Ron Zook being fired by Florida for being 7-4 and in your next breath, you talk about Illinois going to the Rose Bowl. Well dumb a--, do you know who the Illinois coach is? Ron Zook! Do you know what his record was his first year at Illinois? 2-9 and 0-8 in the Big Ten. Do you know what his record was his second year? It was worse! 2-10 and 1-7 in the Big Ten. Now in his third season, he was 9-3, 6-2 in the Big Ten and went to the Rose Bowl. So, pea brain, Illinois would probably put him in their hall of fame as well. Try to know something about football before you comment on it moron and try to use the same name so everyone who is not familiar with you will know when another of your idiotic comments has been posted.

Yes, Moron, I know all about Ron Zook- he is a great coach and is showing it at Illinois. The point is, you have to win at Florida and a good coach will get fired if he doesnt. That is why they win-and MN keeps losing. You are pathetic!You keep showing how weak your arguments are when you blow up and start swearing. What happened to the loving half glass full sweetness and light sap? Ha!

So, why do you use multiple names to post when everybody knows who you are? And what possesses you to post about the Gophers when you are in love with the Gators? Just curious. Speaking of pathetic, is this the only way you can get people to communicate with you? If so, I strongly suggest you get in your car in the garage and start it and wait.

Matt, why should we play at the Michigan, OSU, PSU level? Which of the factors that they have working for them do we have?

The best our program is going to be over any part of the next 20 years is that we become a stronger program that can occasionally beat one or more of those elite programs. We have nothing in common with any of the top ten reasons they finish ahead of us. For one example, they have a core fan base in the tens of thousands, ours is no more than 10,000.

You, who are Mr half glass full and positive sappy and you have repeatedly said you wish I would die! To me, that sounds pretty negative and down right vicious! And I repeat, who cares what name you post under??. You are definitely a wack job.

Typical, name calling is about all you are capable of too. How about a well thought out comment worth reading? Are you capable of that or are you just a troll too?

Congratulations to the Gophers! Say, how are thing going with that fine coach Childress and the Vikes? I think you said something about a 10-6 record? What, nothing today about you wish I were dead?? Such a pleasant man!
