This rumor actually goes back about three weeks.  I think there probably
would have been more substance to it if Minnesota hadn't rallied over
their last five games.  If the Gophers had continued the terrible
performances they had thrown up for six weeks, the disgruntlement level
around here probably would have been deafening.  Instead, they turned it
around and tied for first.  Barring something very serious coming out of
the Chris McAlpine (not Justin McHugh as mentioned elsewhere, unless I
really missed something), I'd be very surprised to see a change made.
