    ESPN: Biggest surprises and disappointments of the 2020-21 college basketball season (Surprises: The state of Minnesota takes over college basketball)

    We have this discussion with my friends all the time. Even though this is the state of hockey, Gophers are undefeated through 10 games first time in 80 years, there is still more overall buzz in town about the gophers men's bb looking really good. There are more hockey fans here than almost...

    Nebraska celebrates 3-5 and pummeling of Rutgers.

    Bottom 25% is generous. The fact that he can scramble is all he has.

    DEFENSE!!!!

    Guys like Omersa think this a video game where you get points for jumping high and not blocking the shot. Most of the time he is trying to block the shot of a guy he had no business trying to and it leaves him totally out of position to rebound. Just one game you would think a coach would ask...

    Mashburn, Ihnen, and Williams Ask for More PT

    All we need now is Omersa to ask to play less and we might crack the top 25.

    Playing Time / Based on BC Game

    Agreed but i think best lineups move inhen/Williams to the 4 to keep our other bigs off the floor and use gabe to spell carr/Gach/mashburn backcourt The second half started disasterous last night trying to keep two bigs on the floor, the 9 to 0 run and most of the rest of the half were one big...

    University of Minnesota on 60 Minutes

    And if your the gymnastics coach and you think you can devise a way to make your sport revenue neutral, maybe you should just go ahead and do that, not offer up that you had a plan to maybe pull it off someday after they tell you your getting cut. Reality is, due to Title IX, to be really...

    Whose seat is hotter? Captain Khakis or Frosty The NoMan

    No honorable mention for James Franklin? Worst start in program history.

    Squire: Morgan’s Draft Stock Taking a Hit

    Saying Tanner isn't a high round draft pick isn't saying he won't be drafted, Leidner was an UDFA. There's room in between those two things.

    Wisconsin scenario

    The plan is have Tanner Morgan stare down every receiver he throws to until we play Wisconsin and then he fakes staring down guys in that game and catches the Badgers napping.

    Recruiting Concerns

    Been thinking of moving downtown now that the kids are grown, regularly looking on Zillow, actually was hoping for some kind of dramatic white flight price drops, not really happening yet, BUT prices definitely plateaued in an area where they were rising at a terrific rate. Problem is most of...

    Injury situation

    I swear on one of the interviews on Kfan (I think with Paul Allen Monday) PJ mentioned getting Bryce Williams back this week to go along with Mo and Cam Wiley.

    STrib: Gophers true freshman Daniel Jackson could be program's next extraordinary receiver

    Anyone wondering if there is a chance Rashod's stock takes a hit and he decides to come back again next year?

    Nashville watch location?

    Martin's BBQ downtown. Lots of TV's great food, basically like being at the Ball Park Beer Garden at the state fair. So very outdoorish which is a plus these days.

    The offense down the stretch

    I'd say he's totally out of touch with the reality of his own team. I'd say he's ignorant of how many times the offense could have won the game instead of hoping the defense didn't lose it. I'd say he hasn't seen that some really good competitive teams can win games and gain an identity by...

    UNBELIEVABLE - POST GAME RANT THREAD!!!!

    If your offense can score almost every time and your defense lets them score every time and your special teams are a disaster, you should be going for it on 4th down, even with a lead, even at or anywhere near mid field. You know the other team will score from their own 30 as easy as from the...

    Shooter: In case you hadn’t noticed, most defensive starters Gophers lost from last season, when the team finished 11-2, were Kill-Claeys recruits

    Agreed, but I told my friends that I am now really glad we went to two extra road games last year and really enjoyed the season while it was happening. Right now it looks like a 4 to 5 year path to get back to there. We look like a total rebuild on defense and best case we get that done in...

    Preston Jelen

    Also reminiscent of how Thomas Barber worked himself from special teams to starting defense so quickly, basically seemed to make 50% of the tackles on special teams, you couldn't not notice. This is the way it is supposed to work, you have opinions, you can see guys in practice, but you can't...

    Souhan: Gophers coach P.J. Fleck must prove he can win with his own defensive recruits

    You can see the holes in that class. No dominant dline players. But you supported it with solid linebacking and a once in a generation safety. This year we are still waiting for a dominant dline to emerge and we are learning on the job at linebacker. We can win games but need huge...
