Well most of us didn't see it so there is that.

The bar is unfortunately probably less than most of us want. I'm guessing 8 wins and we roll it back again.

This is where I'm at also. My interest level in college basketball in general and Gophers basketball in particular is to a large degree centered around the tournament. Making the tournament. Following the projections. Watching the seeding. Seeing the bracket. Dreaming of a run to the Sweet...

Definitely one of the more impressive wins by Johnson during his tenure. The Gophers definitely controlled the tempo throughout and only looked rattled once or twice. Iowa has never been able to defend anybody but can usually score in high volume. The Gophers made it really tough on them...

Normally I would agree with you, but I'm not sure you want to try to run with Iowa. Pace has been good so far for the Gophers.

I don't disagree with either of you here. I don't have a number in mind that would save him either. Although I'm guessing that number is lower than most of us think. But you are right Dave that they wouldn't come out publicly and say anything. It's interesting to me there is so little...

I think most posters agree that it "shouldn't be" good enough to consider a 5th season. But do we really have any indication that it won't be? I share the concerns of others on this message board that we really don't know if there is any appetite to get rid of him from the people that matter...

Who is the biggest conference surprise and biggest disappointment so far this B1G season in your eyes @SelectionSunday?

I don't disagree with anything you say here in this post. Your description of the 2015-2016 team is accurate. I'd add the atmosphere in the fanbase and towards the coach was pretty toxic at the time particularly after losing non-conference games against the North/South Dakota schools. It's...

Kind of an odd argument you are trying to pick here. If you replace Joey King with Dawson Garcia in your second sentence it accurately describes this year's team. Joey King's own words during that interview after the game were about the lack of wins that year but how he guaranteed this would...

It's amazing how sports fandom is so fickle and reactionary. Had one possession gone differently at the end of the game, the board would be lit up again with "Fire Johnson" posts. Now we are probably two more wins away from the "Ben Johnson is Not a Disaster" thread getting some more traction...

What type of odds do you have to give for the Gophers to NOT appear on this list at any point throughout the rest of the regular season?

This feels like a worse match-up than most with that frontcourt?

There is almost nothing he can say at this point that won't elicit an eye roll at best to anger at worst as the losses continue to mount and the majority of the fan base wants to move on. Most of the time he says what he "should" in his lower expectations bias. In that sense, I actually feel a...

Is this the real USAF or is somebody posting under his moniker?

I would too. They need to find a proven commodity this time around from a mid-major and/or hire a lead assistant from a very successful program (i.e. Micah Shrewsberry at Purdue). It would be very difficult to get a Musselman type hire to this dumpster fire right now. In my view, this...

Paging @USAF

You might end up being right, but what's the point? Obviously the player-coach is not happening and I'm not sure there is anybody associated with the program today that would make a difference or he would be doing so already. Last February most on this site felt Johnson had done enough in...

I guess I could hop on board and make some easy money. The USAF plan.

Give up 60 this half?
