Appreciate the thoughts. Thank you. Full disclosure. I was the one that axed the Gophers-UST roster thread. GH/the mods had nothing to do with it. I got sick of the petty douchebags chiming in, so made the decision (alone) to just end it.

Agree. Totally cool with UST/Summit League off-topic board. That's up to the mods, though.

That's kind of what has happened to me, especially the last couple seasons. My interest has shifted more to a lower level of D1 hoops (St. Thomas/Summit League), even though technically they're part of this whole big, convoluted mess. Not the same talent and skill level, no, but a lot easier on...

For now, no, but if the SEC, Big Ten, etc., get their way, it might not be that far away (5 years?). That said, I don't think they (Sankey, Petitti, Yormark, Phillips, Dan Gavitt, TV networks forking out all the dough, etc.) are that stupid/greedy (yet). Deep down they know taking the "Hickory...

MSU needs perimeter shooters and a PG to spell Fears (who's a non-threat from outside). Sparty loses a lot, but have to think by accident they'll finish better than #317 in the country from 3. Sophomore Kur Teng is a guy to watch. Didn't get much run last season, but he'll be one of the guys...

In terms of time investment, can’t see that remaining the same. Becoming too much like pro sports. I do know the exact minute when I’ll be 100% out. … when March Madness gets rid of automatic bids & the low-and mid-majors are no longer invited. No interest in a NCAA tourney that only has major...

Hang the banners, if for no other reason than to watch the Twin Cites sports media pu**ies & U of M egghead professors go into a tizzy.

Went to a 1978 mid-November Morris-St. Olaf Division 3 football playoff game. The field was a sheet of ice, and I don’t think I’ve ever been colder in my life. The Oles lost, 23-10. That was and is the last time I will find myself in Morris, MN. Pure definition of “The Sticks.” Fun fact: St...

We need to get old men out of college basketball. This is utter insanity if these hangers-on get another year of eligibility for no reason.

Ben Woodside (NDSU via Albert Lea) was a baller, too.

I think Izzo has 2 seasons left in him, 3 tops. Get the feeling he really wants that second national title, but have to believe the nonsense going on now will finally wear him down.

My brother works in SLP district. That's pretty much the exact thing he said about the twins, also mentioning Omersa. Said they're both raw, but one was clearly better. Full disclosure, I don't know their names, so don't know which one he's saying is better. He was surprised one got a scholly to...

Not a great shooter, but was impressed with him as a lead guard when I saw him vs. St. Thomas. My memory is that was his first game after missing the first part of the season due to injury. Think he'd be a nice pickup, certainly has handle & Gophers need one of those.

Boden Kapke to Boston College.

What are his biggest strengths? Shooting? Goes to the rack? Can he defend/rebound at all? Hoping Kapke has some interest.
