For what it’s worth Haslametrics.com projects on a neutral court the Gophers would be roughly a 2 to 2.5 point underdog to the School Thou Shall Not Mention Here. Not certain, but KenPom would probably have that flipped.

Love his funky game. A bucket-getter in so many different ways.

Gophers complete the "Cupcake City" bucket unblemished with a 60-43 snoozer over FDU. Now the hard part. ... start beating a few good teams you're not expected to beat.

Got Michigan at 25-1 back in early spring. Wagered $100. So hard for me to pull for Michigan, but I’ll have to during March Madness unless the Wolverines run up against MSU or the School Thou Shall Not Mention Here.

To “expect” Niko to add someone midseason seems like a stretch, especially for a season that at best is headed toward the College Basketball Crown. Save the money for next season, when it appears we (knock on wood) have a few nice pieces in place and presumably make a run at the NCAA tourney...
