    Colorado State heading into last year

    Last year if I was a Colorado State fan I would have been wondering where my scoring/minutes were coming from. The previous year stats of the guys who ended up fueling their NCAA run (guys who played 15+ mpg and were part of the rotation in the tournaments: Nique Clifford: 36 starts, 30...

    Haha. Some people also saying they wished him well and it wasn’t a good fit. Also some concern they couldn’t develop him/figure out how to use him. His only good game last year (5/10 3PT, 23 points) was against La Salle so the narrative was he could only succeed against slower defenders...

    Tar Heels forum says no. Also slow to get his shot off and can’t drive.

    Guys entering portal with seemingly no eligibility left

    Bad idea, unless he thinks an extra year of college will increase his draft stock considerably. Sure he could make more money next year via NIL, but he would losing out on an extra year of his prime when he could be earning a second QB contract.

    Would love to have this guy and add to our lengthy 3PT shooting stable.

    Former Gophers guard Braeden Carrington is now a Badger.

    He does a pretty good job filling up the stat sheet (averaged 7.1 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 1.6 steals and .7 blocks per 40 minutes). He just can’t shoot. Pretty important for a shooting guard. It looks like he lost his starting job at Tulsa halfway thru the season then got it back for the last 3...

    Gophers land a big man....... 6' 10" Nehemiah Turner

    Yes. Gets his feet wet next year with Vaihola starting, then he can take over his Junior/Senior year.

    Gophers land a big man....... 6' 10" Nehemiah Turner

    Very small sample size but I saw that he made 4/10 3 pointers in the last two months of the season once he was put in the starting lineup. I also love to see he averaged 3.7 assists per 40 minutes. That would have ranked 3rd on our team last year. Also shows Niko may have a type, with Vaihola...

    2 college basketball teams are out-spending the field in men’s transfer portal, and the numbers are wild

    I think if every player was a free agent every year then the Mets/Dodgers would win more. By signing long term contracts teams can actually hold on to players as they develop. And bad big money contracts hamstring them for years. Now it feels like the moment a mid major guy sees success...

    He also made 51 3's his senior year. Not a small number. Get him learning behind Bobby Durkin for a couple years. Bobby was 6'7" 195 in HS and made 78 3's his senior year which was a school record. Now he is 6'7" 220. Seeing that we reached out to Cade Tyson as well (6'7" 200 lbs, 60 3PT...

    I’m not arguing that Lubbock is exotic. To an 18 year old it might. Especially when they just made the Elite Eight. I have driven through there and that was enough to give me a sense of it haha.

    Oh for sure. I'm saying that may be his perception because it is far away and different. I've lived in 7 different states now but growing up we didn't really ever leave MN, and I went to college in-state (Morris and the U of M). I still remember what it felt like moving to a new city for my...

    If you’ve lived in MN your whole life I can see how a warm sunny state far away can seem like it is exotic and interesting while the hometown school just down the street is not.

    Nolan Groves

    This will come off as sour grapes but when I checked his Twitter I was surprised at how he pretty much had only retweeted Mr. Basketball content the last few months, including retweets of people campaigning for him. Then he commits before his MN visit he scheduled. That combined with hearing he...

    Niko’s roster construction

    I have mentally filed him and RolandBrooks as guys who sometimes have insider info. Petermac is on probation/time out.

    2025 Transfer Portal Watch

    Haha I was thinking about him…but at least he missed 2 seasons due to injury. On that note I think we will see a lot more guys medically redshirt as well like Tyler Cochran or BJ Omot (not sure when he could have come back but saw some speculation he shut it down to preserve a year of...

    This guy graduated HS in 2019 and will turn 26 in-season. This will be his 7th year out of HS. 2019-2020: Post grad year in Ohio 2020-2021: Duquesne 2021-2022: San Diego State 2022-2023: NW Florida State 2023-2025: Auburn 2025-2026: ? I wonder if we see more guys do post-grad years and JUCOs...

    I’m a Morris alum. I had a fantastic experience in their chemistry department. And yes, we certainly had to make our own fun, there was little to nothing going on in that town. Now that I have spent most of the last 15 years out West, I kinda wish I had gone to college in the middle of nowhere...
