Yeah, I knew that would get a response. There are a lot of universities that have called themselves that for a long time. They just haven't had the football success during the TV era to make everyone else immediately think of their university when someone says "The U".
Could be. I still think he's an a$$****, don't you? Of course we sometimes recruit against each other, so having a down Minnesota might not be all bad (though it would mean an easy win for Iowa).People here seem pretty invested in the desire that a team we don't even play and a coach with no ISU or Big 12 connections is unsuccessful. Like Fleck stole their toddlers candy or something.
Great. The University of Minnesota has been known as "The U" locally since well before 1925 - the year the University of Miami was founded.
Great no one outside of Minny would say Minnesota is the "U". Any other brilliant examples?
Great. I am currently in Minnesota.
See if you can put it together.
My last statement on this ridiculous derail of this thread.
Beating TCU by 25 isn't beating anyone?
At least you still have the most appropriate handle on the site
You seriously weren't bright enough to follow that simple logic?
Him: It's been called the U in Minnesota for more than a century.
You: No one outside of Minnesota calls it the U.
Him: That's ok, I live in Minnesota.
You: I don't get it.
What logic? The "U" is Miami I dont care if he lives in Minnesota and they call that up there.
I don't know jack about PJ Fleck with Minnesota.
I do know that early in the 2010 season I bought a couple not so good seats on the cheap at stubhub for the Iowa @ Minnesota game. Iowa fans were starting to buy them up anticipating a Big 10 title. Min/Iowa was heading towards a sell out early that year. I flipped those tickets for more than double I paid. Iowa had just won at Michigan a couple days earlier and it was perfect timing to sell. Hawks lost to UW the next Saturday. Iowa also lost to the Goophers that year.

What is the point you’re trying to make?
he’s played a bunch of **** teams, and should have lost two of them.
you have to understand that the poster you quoted wakes up every single day of his life striving to live up to his screen name.
it seems this **** thread is an overreaction to still being mad we lost Iowa’s Super Bowl.
