NIL is for sure playing a role here. In Minnesota, I’m thinking we have enough money to be competitive and to expend a little bit more on local guys. I know tOSU has unlimited funds for football but they would’ve priced Perich like a four star while we would’ve assigned a higher value. So...

Assuming he holds his spot, Diane next year makes it five.

Ben could open himself up to a countersuit for impersonating a basketball coach.

I just realized this is the first Gophers team I’m excited to watch in years.

Need guys who can dribble around and help you run the shot clock to three seconds.

At this point, one of the great joys that can be derived from this message board is reading posts from folks imploding about UST related content. A personal favorite is when someone will talk about the rules for what can and can't get posted and lament a thread's existence, all while violating...

This oughta be interesting to follow. The Tyler Johnson thing is what I'll remember Matt Miller for. He said he didn't see anything better than a day 3 pick and Twitter exploded in pro Gopher vitriol...but it turns out he was right. Is he objective or is he just a dink? Find out tonight at 6.

Agreed. I think the Gophers have more of a chance to compete now than they did when NIL was first rolled out and much more so before NIL was allowed in the first place. I know that’s not everything but it does make me see how the prior longstanding system in place hurt the gophers more - there...

There are a bunch of articles out there breaking down the numbers but they usually end with the top ten valuations. I'm sure the actual WSJ article goes over methodology. Here's a blurb from an msn article about this: The Big Ten’s $7 billion media deal (2023-2030) provides approximately...

Makes me wonder if it doesn’t serve some teams to wait until the smoke clears before building out a roster. The best players will likely sign more quickly but if high level guys keep entering the portal after the blue bloods have filled out their roster, that changes things.

That. Was. The. Joke.

Is it not weird to leave out Asian Americans or Latinos from this conversation? I get that basketball is dominated by African Americans at a high level but, in terms of the general populace that play or have an interest, I'm sure the interest is much broader but time and time again we see...

Anyone know if there is a list of other local players (non-Gopher) participating today?

If you ignore voices like this, you take away any power they may have. Race is not a qualification for any job and this is some tired and old thinking that only holds everyone back.

Your posts are starting to read like Pantherhawk's regarding anything U of M. I'm hoping you take a minute today and reflect on whether that's something you want to continue with.
