Thank goodness common sense prevailed and the TWolves took Shannon from the B1G instead of Christie. Yes, Christie was All-B1G Freshman team, but he was a second or third option on a weak team (yes, our team). His lack of NBA readiness has been extensively discussed (even by us, his fans.)...

With the bulk of the games in conference, when you’re a bad team, everyone you play is better than you. Purdue having the toughest schedule says more about them than the competition.

I think Morgan Fairchild would have a better chance.

It would surprise me. For a team that’s often been without first round picks, that finally has one again, and is (perhaps) one plug-in player away from the championship… it seems unlikely they would spend that pick on a multi-year project.

Wouldn’t “non-stop calls until the portal closes” be tampering? Mitchell wasn’t in the portal and shouldn’t have teams calling him.

I find it interesting that we had a few recent offers that were immediately accepted. I can’t remember that happening often in the past. Were they lower profile recruits that didn’t have other P5 options? Or have we turned another corner as a program?

Apparently ducks can’t really dive all that deep. Don’t most of them just pivot their butts in the air and reach down? That’s not a dive!

Beat me to it. 🙂

Can Evans be a Vince Grier type of transfer difference-maker?

If your notion of “not so bad” is tenth place, I guess. My how our expectations have dwindled. Is this really what we were hoping for when we showed Pitino the door?

Almost makes that multimillion dollar salary worth it.

What about those poor oppressed players that were ineligible to play varsity as freshmen back in the 60’s? Should it they get a cut? Or the 5th—12th place FB teams that are denied a shot at the title in past years? 🙄 Where would this end? You played by the rules that were in place at the time...

It’s hard to care much about a game that resembles pickup hoops. Noon ball, choose up sides and go. No continuity. No familiarity. No growth and development as a team. A new season means a whole new roster. It’s ludicrous that the college game now requires extraordinary investment (especially...

What we do recognize is that everyone ISN’T returning.

I credit Flinstones vitamins for all of my siblings being much taller than our parents. 😁

Coach Killer.

It’s time to give some court time to the practice player that was so overwhelming he drove off Jamison Battle and Pharrel Payne! Unleash the Betts!!

This March Madness gig looks pretty fun. The Gophers should try it again sometime soon.

Cam’s biggest weakness that was exposed down the stretch was his weak handle when trying to create his own shot or run pick and roll. Since that is 99% of NBA offense, I’m not seeing it. Nothing special as an on-ball defender, either. He can be a star with another year or two of college. I’m...

Might as well ruin Butler’s plan to win the tournament at home. Why not us? Get hot and play solid D.
