It’s a tweet, and 140-character nuance is hard sometimes, but this isn’t the kind of go-ahead I’d expect to see from Tony Barnhart.
“Boycott for money or practice conditions”? Citoyens! Aux barricades!!!

UPDATE: By the way, even if you don’t approve of their tactics, it appears some compromise is trying to be reached.
Friday morning, Gophers team members met with a lawyer representing the 10 suspended players in downtown Minneapolis, plotting their strategy on how to move forward. Later, sources said the players were planning an evening meeting with some university regents.
Regents Darrin Rosha and Michael Hsu were seen attending the Friday night meeting.
Two sources said Kaler wasn’t invited to Friday night’s meeting but arrived anyway. The Gophers’ senior leadership group of quarterback Mitch Leidner, linebacker Jack Lynn and others helped lead the conversations with Kaler.
According to sources, one of the players’ goals was to have the hearings for the 10 suspended players moved up from January to early next week. But that goal wasn’t reached as of Friday night.
Move up the hearings date? Dang, if I didn’t know any better, I’d say it sounds like somebody read my post yesterday.
