    What is the best current uniform combination?

    The Gophers only need three uniforms: gold, maroon, and white. That is 9 combinations. Several years ago, the Gophers were bragging about new uniforms and how many different uniforms that had. I think gold should be part of any uniform combination because we are the Golden Gophers. I think...

    Oregon, Washington ‘Vetted and Cleared’ to Join Big Ten: Brett McMurphy

    What is the status of Stanford? They are a plum for some conference to pick.

    Gopher Volleyball 2023 Season

    I doubt that it hurts anything. His staff can keep in contact with potential recruits. He can call a recruit if they need to "set the hook." The fact that he is coaching the U-19 is an endorsement of his coaching credentials and will help with recruitment not hurt it.

    Rose into the Portal

    I was sorry to see Micheaux leave. She was a huge asset to the team. She would have had plenty of playing time with Hart coming in. What the Gophers lacked last year was someone who could spell Micheaux, keep her fresh, help keep her out of foul trouble, and provide quality minutes. My gut...

    Plitzuweit's assistant coaches

    Great decisions. Outstanding continuity. They won't be starting from scratch. I feel sorry for West Virginia. They are really starting over and getting a late start. Memo to Coach P.: Do not schedule West Virginia.

    Coaches to Watch

    Nuts to an "M-person" or someone with Minnesota connections. Nuts to male vs. female. Nuts to a coach of color vs. non-colored coach. Nuts to a coach from the Upper Midwest. Nuts to hiring on the cheap. We have got to get this hire right. We need to reduce the constraints. We need to be open...

    Gopher Women's Hockey 2022-23 Season

    Ever notice how they stack WCHA teams on one side of a bracket or rig it so WCHA teams play each other early in the tournament. Minnesota may have to go through their two biggest rivals to get to the championship game.

    BREAKING: Mark Coyle and Lindsay Whalen announced today that Whalen will step down as head coach, effective immediately.

    I think she is saying that her daughter wanted to play for Lindsey and she has had one huge disappointment already from getting hurt, losing her season, and I will bet that she is worried about how long it will take to come back. The last part suggests to me that the players like Lindsey a lot...

    BREAKING: Mark Coyle and Lindsay Whalen announced today that Whalen will step down as head coach, effective immediately.

    Thank you for your comments and wish we had your perspective. I hope Gopher athletes do not read the Gopher Hole because there is too much negativity. I hope they listen to their coaches and focus on what they have to do on the court and in the classroom.

    B1G Tournament Game 1: Gophers vs Penn State (3-1-23)

    Whalen may have strong opinions on how a PG should play and maybe some former and current players think that their former coaches know better. However, with the wealth of knowledge and experiences that Whalen and Banham have, some players should be like sponges and soak it up.

    Braun snubbed from B1G Freshman of the Year

    I was hoping that Micheaux would get a second team nod. But, there are a lot of good players in the BIG and you are more likely to get a nod if you are on a winning team.

    B1G TICKETS

    I wish I live close enough to attend. I hope there is a huge turnout and give the Team a home court advantage. The crowd was great for the Purdue game/senior day and I could feel the enthusiasm on BIG+. The crowd helped them finish strongly.

    B1G Game 18: Gophers Host Purdue (2-26-23)

    Good win. Great team effort. They dug in at the end and were not going to let it get away. Kudos to University of Minnesota and BIG+ for showing the presentations to the seniors afterwards. It was a tough season and they took a lot of lumps. But, it was good to see how happy the seniors...

    STrib: Whalen promises good things are coming; Freshmen insist they're not leaving

    They most likely have and are doing weight training, agility drills, and flexibility exercises. That is just part of the equation. These young women are still developing. Some are still growing into their bodies. Some are still developing mentally and emotionally. Everyone develops at a...

    The NIL Era Begins. ESPN: Social Media Stardom:

    I live in Arkansas. Are Gopher athletes doing commercials on TV or in other media? I did read where Gopher athletes are selling T-shirts, etc. Razorback athletes are doing commercials. Many of them are for Sports Medicine for the UA Medical School. I don't know whether they are paid or...
