Looks like it was reported at about 2,500. I agree it sounded louder.

Not me entertaining myself by envisioning Cotie McMahon and volatile Rutgers transfer-out Kiyomi McMiller (and, yes, Rutgers' season is not even over yet although hers is) ending up at the same team...

Peculiar that that the Gophers did not foul much (16) but two people fouled out.

Can anyone help me understood Plitzuweit's effusive praise for Hart after the game? I get that she was talking about defense not offense (since she only took two shots, which I also don't get, surrounded by shorter posts) but she didn't seem that effective on D to me, either. Very confounding...

(FYI -- she was discussed a bit on the first page of this thread)

Did I misread her stats? I thought she shot zero threes this season.

Tell me you're OK with being a cellar dweller without telling me you're OK with being a cellar dweller.

Summit League freshman of the year Jocelyn Schiller, anyone? Grand Forks native. Point guard. In the portal

Looks like Gonzaga lost to Missouri State and went 1-2 with Oregon State...

In one of the closer ones, MN native Lauren Jensen dueled against MN native Adalia McKenzie. The latter's Illinois team topped the former's Creighton.

She also shot 67% from the field, which is significantly better than Hart (17 percentage points better).

Yes, please!

The volleyball team has landed top recruits from Florida, Texas, Kansas City, etc. It can be done. (And volleyball also does great with MN talent,which took them all the way to a final four in Columbus)

Through three quarters, Oregon State is ahead of Portland by ten and looking like they'll steal a spot in the tournament (and move ahead of Minnesota). You might be clairvoyant.

Weird how the this-nonconference-schedule-is-what-the-Gophers-need people seem to have vanished now that what many of us were saying all along has proved true: The awful non-con did not prepare the Gophers for conference play, provide an opportunity to give new players more time on the court or...

She just signed an extension and very publicly stated that she's not going anywhere, presumably to head off this sort of talk. We shall see. (Her team was on ESPNU the other day and I tuned in, hoping to see a fluid offense of the sort I wish the Gophers had. Didn't get that. But they're good.)

...and likely a powerhouse for 2-3 seasons. ...and likely a powerhouse for 2-3 seasons.

Iowa's bench is making an enormous difference in what is looking like a win over the Spartans.

I'm not sure I understand this thinking. Indiana is comfortably ahead of Minnesota in terms of getting in. The teams Minnesota needs to worry about are the teams that are currently behind them. Virginia Tech, Stanford and Arizona lost, which is good news for the Gophers. We'll see what happens...

If we're paying attention to the eight or so teams who seem to be behind the Gophers and might be able to grab NCAA spots, it's worth noting that one of them, once-mighty Stanford, just suffered a bad loss to Clemson in their tourney. The Cardinal will definitely miss the tournament for the...
