Sorry to be Debbie downer here Stan but David won't be taking down Goliath at Mackey tonight. I think the Gopher will have zero chance vs a few teams in conference however I believe they will be competitive in a high majority of conference tilts this winter.
There have been some here that have skewered Durkins for his lack of defensive play. Cade Tyson is terrible. His switches are brutal, once he does he then runs all over the court, he needs to get up in the guys chest every now and then. Maybe try to deny the guy you are supposed to be guarding...
I am with you regarding Hummel. He has grown so much from when he first started. I think he is really good. As one of the former players who do color for College BB he is, IMO, one of the better ones.
I agree, GEEZ 3-4 games into a new coach and we are already in doubt? C'mon Man!!! Lets keep in mind, in the new CBB era, starting from scratch is the new norm for nearly every team, not just here for the Gopher.
