    Caledonia native Eli King in portal from Iowa State

    That's why I felt like the lineup should have been Cooper Carrington Henley Battle Dawson Ola-Joseph is an undersized PF. He should be playing a role similar to how Tubby used Damian Johnson & Rodney Williams. I honestly felt we were at our worse when we played Payne, Garcia, and Battle...

    Caledonia native Eli King in portal from Iowa State

    Other than Edey & Dickinson, I think he matches up better than we gave him credit for with the rest

    Caledonia native Eli King in portal from Iowa State

    I think the rotation will be Payne starts & Garcia slides in for Payne with Ola Joseph, Fox Ihnen or Betts at 4, then Emergency would be Wilson, Fox or Ihnen at 5. TBH n most here won’t agree but Garcia best offensive position would be at 5 in a 5 out look with a 4 who could possibly guard at 5...

    Caledonia native Eli King in portal from Iowa State

    I rather Garcia, Fox, & Ihnen play the back 5 minutes. We could probably use a combo Forward more than a practice/emergency Center. I still don't think it's a big deal if we get guard and wing transfers who can provide competition for minutes.

    Caledonia native Eli King in portal from Iowa State

    The only reason I wouldn’t take King is because he has 3 years left & we got Asuma coming in along with Christie, Carrington & Mitchell. I don’t see the need of a long term transfer. The focus should be on a short term transfer like Pride & Bairstow than bringing King in. I love Eli. I do think...

    "It definitely is surprising," Jackson McAndrew on not receiving Gophers' offer

    I have said this in the past. That's why I didn't understand the hire.

    "It definitely is surprising," Jackson McAndrew on not receiving Gophers' offer

    My point is he's not a diversity hire. He was hired because of the local ties and us "missing out on Minnesota kids". It's not like the 24-26 classes are stock with can't miss prospects

    "It definitely is surprising," Jackson McAndrew on not receiving Gophers' offer

    I agree with you. Maybe that is not how Ben operates.

    "It definitely is surprising," Jackson McAndrew on not receiving Gophers' offer

    I agree. I hate that the diversity hire thing keeps being floated around. You guys are crazy if you think that Ben Johnson was the most qualified black coach interested in the job. I think he sold Coyle on in-state recruiting and his relationships with the local AAU programs. The diversity thing...

    "It definitely is surprising," Jackson McAndrew on not receiving Gophers' offer

    I would offer him, but I also don't think not offering him is a big deal as well. He was okay this weekend for Pulley but he definitely didn't look like he did during the state tournament run. Mekonnen looked much better for D1 as well as Groves (not as much as Mekonnen). I love Jackson's...

    "It definitely is surprising," Jackson McAndrew on not receiving Gophers' offer

    Best offensive player for sure. He still has a lot of room to grow defensively. He’s not a good rebounder for his size.

    "It definitely is surprising," Jackson McAndrew on not receiving Gophers' offer

    He finished the season strong but Northern Iowa was as recruiting much harder than Creighton. Multiple Pulley players & coaches have said the same thing

    "It definitely is surprising," Jackson McAndrew on not receiving Gophers' offer

    He was recruiting Freitag. I’ve seen them at Jefferson games. He focused his attention on Asuma instead. It’s not like Freitag has been getting new hoops offers. It seems like more teams are backing off then hooping on. As far as McAndrews, it seems there was interest but then that went away and...

    "It definitely is surprising," Jackson McAndrew on not receiving Gophers' offer

    Has he not? Half of our current roster is from Minnesota & he already has 1 commit from the same class as McAndrews. He also offered Groves & is after Mekonnen. We can’t say he hasn’t done his work as far as local recruiting

    Nothing & this guy stats indicates he will be worse

    Jack Wilson commits

    Agree but I don’t like the Wilson pick up. How is an improvement from Treyton Thompson? I would haven’t taken a freshman unless they were a high super high potential guy, but I wouldn’t give a basketball scholarship to an OL.

    Gophers in CSUF G transfer Latrell Wrightsell Jr. top 3

    Nothing is wrong with Mountain West coaches. I wanted Smith or Gates who were low & mid major coaches. My original point was this isn’t a good job. We won’t ever get the cream of the crop coach during the hiring cycle. We don’t pay enough or have the financial backers.

    Gophers in CSUF G transfer Latrell Wrightsell Jr. top 3

    How do we actually know the interested qualified coaches? Unless your talking bout the Mountain West guys. Which still proves my point that we are attractive to a low to mid major coach looking to take the next step but I doubt we would be the final destination for that guy. We wouldn’t never...

    Gophers in CSUF G transfer Latrell Wrightsell Jr. top 3

    This definitely wasn’t considered a good job if it was we wouldn’t have hired back to back coaches with minimum to no head coaching experience. I think we as fans overrate this job. This is an attractive job for a low to mid major HC but not to the level we think
