If that's true..Then 2 possibilities.
They are under a gag order to protect the AD..
and the decision is going to be bad.
If it was the hire of a lifetime why the delay?
and in football..the new coach was announced without players knowing and the spin is till going on about what a great guy he is.
We've had a bunch of great coaches in football that lost.
We've had 1 for the last 12 years plus in VB that won.
I wonder why.

Is Laura the Interim? Who are the assistants?

this makes me happy that we now know! I think Laura will do a good job. Glad she stepped up and took the interim spot. Looks like Minnesota will continue to be a top 10 program! |

I was hoping that the coaching vacancy would be filled by the time I returned from vacation! Can't really say I'm surprised as this was the more likely route Maturi was going to go. The Big Ten will become even more challenging now! I'm not convinced that the interim is the way to go...but am thrilled Laura is getting the keys for now. I wish Scott the best and hope he lands on his feet soon.
Glad it's over...but will miss the daily speculation. I guess we can all return to normalcy.

It is finished! I am happy to say that Laura Bush is the interim and good for her! Maybe this will bring (R)uffda back

So..MN went with the 2nd best option available.
This is basically saying the AD is running the show.
NOT great.
So now will Hugh be able to bring all those foreign players from down under to give MN the edge.
This brings in those pesky NCAA rules since he is now announced.
and can he get 50 of the top 50 world class players to come to Mn for try outs?
the answer will be no.
watch for the transfers out and our record no better than 5th next year.
Somehow I knew Jt was watching..

If Hugh is staying with the national team until after London (looks to be the case) the assistants for Laura have already been determined. Look for another announcement in the near future.
