    Massive boys basketball tournament brings top recruits, social media stars to Twin Cities

    Got a half in before a fight in the stands, court stormed, and game cancelled. Predictable.

    All Things 2025 NFL Draft

    Cleveland is the big winner. Got the best DL and now pick 1st and 4th in the second round. They will also have two high first round picks in 2026 because both Jax and Cle will be bad this year. three picks in the top 36 this year and probably 2 in the top 10 next year. I'm sure they're...

    What grade would you give Vikes pick of Donovan Jackson?

    Kwesi on KFAN said he doesn't think they have that many open roster spots which weighed heavily on not feeling the need for additional picks. Wanted quality over quantity. Vikings led the league in their RB being contacted at or behind the line of scrimmage. Impressive upgrade on the interior...

    Typing "Gophers Nebraska Highlights" into the YouTube search bar is a glorious reminder of how many times we've beaten then over the past decade. Had to be more specific to find the above video.

    Favorite Friday = Who is Your favorite Gophers running back?

    Since everyone is covered, I'll throw out a could've been. Bucky Irving. From the first time he touched the ball, on a kickoff return, you could see he was special. Would've done amazing things here had he stayed. 1000 yards and 8 Td's with the Bucs last year despite only being on the field...

    All Things Gophers Coaching Search Thread (rumors, tweets, tid-bits and more)

    Why would he come here? He's Mr. St. Thomas, and coaches at the best program in the state. Would be a demotion.

    Cretin and Wayzata wouldn't be there if they didn't have significant transfers who transferred there only because they thought they could win a state title. Congratulations.

    No reason to care anymore in 4A. Transfer schools win. 3A should be great, two community teams.

    Was referencing Wiggins (Benilde) and Anderson (Eden Prairie). Two key pieces that transferred in specifically to try to win a state title.

    Shakopee winning it would be great. Played together since 4th grade. Hate to see the transfer schools win (Wayzata/Cretin). Like Breck beating Lake City in 2A last year.

    Shakopee has won 17 in a row and 21 of last 22. Had a few injuries early in the season but have been fully healthy during this run. I think they have a good chance to beat Wayzata.

    Who was your team growing up through HS and College?

    As a young kid I was fascinated by the Big East. Having only 5 channels and never seeing them play, names like Georgetown and Villanova sounded mythical (much cooler than Wisconsin, Iowa, etc.). Those epic Sports Illustrated cover photos didn't hurt.
