Niko at least will be going fishing with about 4-5 million in bait. The Robert Morris coach is going out fishing with college scholarships to offer.

There is no reason why we can't be good in this upcoming year. Every year now stands on its own, even for most incumbent coaches. Once again- 4 of the sweet 16 coaches are new to their teams this year. This is an exciting month ahead!

It has but Cam Christie, for example was ranked around 100 and was a nice first year player.

4 teams in the Sweet 16 have new coaches.

More money.

They will recruit less of them. And let's face it, if Kentucky or whoever, is going to start a bunch of juniors and seniors who are well paid, ahead of them, why wouldn't they go build their resume where they can get 30 minutes so that they are in position for a pay day? Playing time is going to...

Stamper was double wide Tarver. Stamper was more like Big Frank.

Miles was not a talented basketball player. He was 6-8 and maybe 200# but he was the most tenacious kid I have seen here. He averaged 6 to 7 boards his last two years at Minny in 26 minutes per game but rarely scored except on a rebound put back. Most memorable he got in a skirmish and I think...

Recruit good shooters and move the ball side to side to get those shooters open shots...Simple but good formula!??

Thanks! I looked up "true tempo" for MN and CSU last year. CSU was 252nd and we were 349th. Two things- 1. wow we were slow tempo- brutal. 2. CSU was not fast either but what I like about what Niko does is keep the ball moving- looking for the right shot. So it's not run and gun but it is...

I actually think that the new trend actually gives us a chance to sign more top 50, top 100 HS players. The guys that used to get sold on playing for a marquee team are now looking at bench time. We may offer a few of those guys a playing time shot. If Duke, Kentucky and others are only taking...

6-5 only 170 pounds

I like the clips of Shinholster. He actually reminds me a little of Kyan Evans. Looks like a good shooter, good handle and smooth athlete.

The thing is, we in Gopher land struggle to name a half dozen development guys over the last 25 years. In BADger world they could probably name 20...a lot of them Minnesotans. I hope that Niko, despite this being an age of free agency has a player or so per year that we end up viewing as a 4...

Yep and Damien Johnson was one.

Not me. Hawk was a good on ball defender but he was too easy to shoot right over or get a mismatch against. The defense he played on that drive was great although he was lucky that no foul was called. He's a winner.

From what I have heard CBJ say in the past- it sounds like he tried to sell the players on how he would use them and what other player he has developed like him in the past. As we could see on the court, Ben was more an individual player recruiter than a system recruiter. I have to believe that...

I would expect word from our potential HS recruits: Jefferson, Shinholster, Ross and JoJo McIver (CSU signee) before we see portal guys. There are more moving parts now for the portal guys: Connection with coach, money, playing time and the money has to be negotiated- some of the money (revenue...

At any rate Bama is putting on a shooting show like I don't think I have seen in the NCAA tournament before. Goodness! 22 made 3s with 7 minutes to go.

Tech was really weak by the refs.
