This was the only season to feature game coaches.

Before the season

After Frederick S. Jones stopped actively coaching, the team used game coaches for one season instead of finding a replacement for him.[1]Шаблон:Rp The McCords, like Coach Peebles, had played football at Princeton.[2]Шаблон:Rp

1889 finally saw the formation of a football association. Before 1889, there wasn't any kind of official connection between the football team and the student body, which sometimes resulted in player shortages and required recruitment from other schools in order to have enough men to play in the games.[2]Шаблон:Rp

Once again, an attempt was made to schedule a game with the University of Michigan, but "Michigan wanted Minnesota to pay all of the expenses of the trip, which would amount to two hundred dollars. The Minnesota management was not able to see its way clear to guarantee this and so the game was given up."[2]Шаблон:Rp
