Anyone who has supported this program should really think about trying to make it.
Its what we have asked for, for so long.
We have to start showing the rest of the country that we love our teams and support them, too.
HAS to help recruiting. Its one little thing we can do to help the program.
I'm gonna try to make it work, somehow.

The Kill comparisons seem off from what I have read. Kill is an intense in your face coach. He runs a battering ram offense. Riley is supposed to be more laid back and runs a pass oriented offense.


The comparisons have more to do with his ability to coach up his talent. He gets more from the 2 and 3 star players he's been able to recruit. A developer of talent that is widely recognized.
Personality wise he's like Tom Osborne.

It's a long overnight drive away. And another back.

Kolstad (blood alcohol .16) clearly started the fight. Nelson (blood alcohol .12) is shown standing and talking to someone as Kolstad comes up from behind and punches him in the back of the head with enough force to knock both Nelson and the guy he was talking to face down to the ground. Nelson was treated for a concussion after the incident. Kolsatd turns to walk away across the street and Shelley comes out of no where and cold cocks Kolstad. This part is actually queasy to watch. Kolstad is out before he hits the ground and man does he hit the ground. His head hit the pavement hard with nothing to slow the fall. Nelson gets up and runs a across the street and kicks at Kolstad's head. He is being restrained as he is doing to, so it is debatable how well he connected. Personally I think the damage was already done.

Would be fitting if they stole Kill from us. That's what I expect.

Status: offline 		I can't see Jerry leaving for Madison, given the support he's had and is still generating by the admin. here. I just ponied up myself--quite generously I might add--for the new football training facility. I had not given the U of M a penny during most of my post-U life, but this guy has me believing that we're going places here. Bolting for Madison would be the worst possible karma for him. He's smarter than that!
