        I might Add how many national title does Woog have. Herb Brooks was the
last coach to lead the Gophers to a national title. Also, if you look at
other teams that faired well in the national title you will see Michigan
and C.C. both had a good mixture of Canadian and American players. I still
think that until Woog starts recruiting in a more holistic approach he will
never win a national title but he may continue to come close losing out
to a BU or A Michigan once again.
        I have friends from canada and they think that Woog's recruiting
only Minnesota Boys is offensive. If Wacker took that approach the Gophers
would be worse than they allready are in football.
