    3 Gopher non-con adds

    We need the next Joe Esposito. He was DBO for Tubby and was a magician at building the non-con schedule. Still had a lot of buy games, but most of the teams finished at or near the top of their conferences, and ended up being SOS positives.

    Big Ten Basketball 2026-27 Standings Outlook

    I’ll be surprised if we’re not in the top half. I’d like to be dancing at the end of the season. The top 4 and bottom 4 may separate out from the pack, but the 10 in the middle are a toss up.

    Lincoln, Nebraska sports radio host: "PJ (Fleck) owns Nebraska... PJ's the man."

    I was more amused by the old Nebraska Board of Tourism campaign: “Nebraska…honestly, it’s not for everyone!”

    Current Roster, Positions, Depth

    I would have hoped for another athletic big (6’9” guy that plays above the rim), but encouraged by the new guys. Grady’s foot history aside, I’m hopeful we’ll have a healthy team this year. Last year we had 2 guys that never played (Omot only had a few minutes in exhibition) and 3 guys that...

    Winters Grady Commits to the Gophers!

    The Vikings just spent a first round draft pick on Caleb Banks. He of the 3-time broken foot. But he has a note from his doctor saying he’s good to go, so nothing to worry about. It’s not like a 6’6” 330 lb guy will put much stress on his foot, right? 🙄 Bad feet worry me.

    Frankly, I’m surprised he found a willing suitor.

    Winters Grady Commits to the Gophers!

    Five years of foot injury but he still managed to become a 4-star, top 100 recruit?! I trust he’ll be ready to go after a long recuperation. By the way, should we be concerned about JCJ’s foot injury?

    Neither are Robert Vaiholla or BJ Omot…

    Shama: It’s believed Medved will have a program high of over $7 million to pay players for next season.

    Not sure. All I know is if they start doing that, it ism 1000 times more likely that a team like MN will get punished than a blue blood (like my moniker).

    Gophers backcourt of Magic Johnson and Kirby Puckett?!

    It’s seems laughable today that they were ineligible because players sold their complimentary tickets.

    2026 NCAA Tournament Thread

    I never would have picked Braeden Smith or Bennet Stirtz to be such dominant PGs. They’re not exceptionally quick, but are so fundamentally sound and have such good handles that they always make the right play. I would think they would be exposed on the defensive end, but Big Ten teams play such...

    Jim Dutcher on Medved: "He did an outstanding job. It was good to see upwards of 8,000 people at Williams Arena again.”

    Says the coach that typically only played 7. Maybe 8 if there was foul trouble, but he usually played a matchup zone to limit fouls, too.
