If he's willing to let it go that his buddy was fired, and still wants to be an active supporter of the program, I have no problem with that. The issue that I'd had in teh past was that his support seemed to be for Dickey alone, and not for NT athletics. Now it looks like he's changing his tune and proving me wrong. So I say "Come on Mattress Mac, wouldn't you LOVE to have a stadium named after you?"

The national press his ad got was critical, but it's still national press. I think it's a sign of a maturing program that people care more about stuff like this. I expect we'll get more media attention for the hire of Dickey's replacement.

It is a sign of maturing program when we risk losing a big donor in order to regain control of our own destiny. RV's strong determination to move us forward overcame the influence of money. And that doesn't happen often, anywhere.

If you truly want to climb to the next level, quirky donors are all part of the process. Smile, take the check, lump it and get on with the process of elevating your programs.

I will echo the same sentiments of most posting here.

How many times have posters on GMG posted there displeasure with the program on this site?

Last I checked we are still loyal even though we publicly post things on this website.

If I had the money, I would seriously think of taking out a full page ad sometimes. laugh.gif

Shoot, Plumm takes out a full page ad everyday. He just doesn't pay for it.

      Mike Mitchell Jr. was out. He's a starter and Minnesota could've really used his shooting. Not as familiar with the other players but they're reserves. This game was a big data point for the Massie over Newell position!

      Awesome win! The only bad part was the commentary from the TV announcers. They confused Newell and Lorient for an extended period of time, stated that Atin Wright originally played at Washington State, and clearly barely knew anything about our program. The play by play announcer gave major 'and boom goes the dynamite' vibes. Some thoughts on the game: - The defense was stellar as we've all come to expect. Delo and Massie were great playing multiple matchups. - Minnesota came out and blitzed our PnRs. We really struggled with the pressure. Eventually we started slipping screens and setting brush screens to counteract it. - Trey Edmonds in the second half forced us to play big. He has a grown man body. Hodge settled on a Lorient/Sissoko combination to match Garcia/Edmonds. - An extended run with a Floyd/Walker/Massie/Lorient/Sissoko lineup including to close the game aside from situational subs. Before the season I would've been shocked that this lineup would close a win on the road against a Big Ten school because of the offense. The spacing was predictably an adventure. Massie wasn't efficient but he kind of made the lineup 'work'. He shows handling, passing, and court awareness in the half court. Feels like he could turn into a secondary ball handler in lineups. - Atin Wright had a meh game by his standards, but still really excited about him this season. He's a bit of a showman and I love it. After getting fouled in transition, he slapped the ball away from the defender and stared at him. On Lorient's massive jam at the end of the game, you can see him standing over Edmonds (who was on the ground). GMG

      Still just a bit, but a sad one because it seems like a ceiling and not a floor.

      I will say that if we take care of business Utah State would like to have a say in that conversation. Lol

      Most uneducated post I read was someone saying we could end up being a quad 3 blemish on the gophers tourney resume. 🤦‍♂️ gotta keep winning games like this. Only way to get past the stigma.
