Gophers at the State Fair

[fanfromthevalley]

Better late than never, the U of M has posted state fair information. In past years, they have posted information before the fair started. Sports days are Monday, Aug. 27 and Wednesday, Aug. 29.

I've learned from another source that players for women's basketball won't be there, they have been given time away after the Italy trip. In their place, assistant coaches will be on the stage.

See the link below for the full schedule of appearances:

You sure players wont be there? They've been off since the trip but i'm pretty sure classes start Monday so id think they'd be back in town this weekend.

Doogie interviewed Kelly and Carly. Whalen will be back in a week.

Kelly: "We're implementing a new offensive and especially a new defensive system." Mentions Lamke, Brunson and Pitts stepping up as team leaders.

Carly talks about recruting.

I like the sound of that.

What did you expect? Of course Whalen wasnt gonna have their team sit in a terrible zone and give up 90 pts a game.

Shades was merely making a comment in passing. Why are you riled up?

Didnt know i was riled up but whalen announced in one of her 1st interviews theyd be going mainly man to man defense. So i thought its been well known thered be a big difference in defenses systems.

Maybe you weren't riled but I think that it was just that you kind of snuffed an enthusiastic, positive comment

Apparently Ignatius felt a need to emphasize in his post what everybody already knew. Not sure why he would bother if that were the case, but I’m glad he did it.
