If memory serves correct, Lou Holtz never coached basketball a day in his life at UMN, therefore move the talk to the football thread. There is nothing to compare to Lou Holtz here in the basketball forum so y'all need to stop shitting in each other's soup and move on to something else.

As a coach, I 100% support Ben Johnson. His offensive schemes and structure are sound. As a snake oil salesman, he hasn't been provided the financial backing to compete with richer snakes. I don't put that blame on Ben at all. The NCAA is now just a bunch of thugs and hoodlums making dark alley...

Gotta be Hawk. Those assists are invaluable. Without him breaking down a defense and hitting players for their shots this team would have 10 less wins.

A tough environment to play in, but good that the kids got to play. Garcia getting that technical hurt us. Then Hawkins injury hurt us. I don't recall seeing JOJ on the court. I think he's probably in the portal by tomorrow. If so, that's a bummer. I think he has an upside, but something...

I think you meant "Carry ons." 😏

So, after one year at Creighton he portals back home to Minnesota! 🤔😅

Groves will lose that "baby fat" and become a solid force in the paint. Like any big, you have to give him a couple years to grow and adjust. Not every big comes in as a rock like Pharyll Paine did. He had a man body in a young mind. With Pharyll, his mind is catching up to his body and he's...

I have no idea who pulled the strings with the mods, but it was clear that it was because a paying client got bent because I was mocking his negativity.

Yes it was. There was a paying member who didn't like Ben at all so I posted a meme or two that expressed my joy for Ben. Next I knew I was told I couldn't come back for 6 months. I guess that's what I get for not paying my dues and pissing off one of the "elites" on the board. Oh well. Water...

What faith do you claim to have? Moreso, what does it have to do with your getting all bent over Finns observation about Grayson Grove in one game that he saw? Dude, he saw ONE game and posted that Groves looked slow and out of shape? Was he wrong about that observation? Was he wrong that Groves...

LOL, were you the guy who whined because I was so positive about Ben Johnson and the Gophers that the mods banned me? It is hilarious that I pushed those who couldn't imagine Ben is a good coach to the point of whining to the mods because I poked them. I take it you were one of the cry babies...

We needed freethrow shooters and ball handlers. JOJ isn't quite as consistent from the line.

That's 2 in a row!!! Get a 3rd in Indiana and even Spaulding will be saying YES!!!

Nobody called "shooter!" 🤯

So I missed on the 20 point blowout and I forgot to talk about Mitchell and Hawkins who are presently playing great basketball for us. I note that Garcia and Christie didn't have great games, but Payne and JOJ were very good. And, Carrington (and crew) once again locks down the main opponents...
