    Colorado State looking really impressive again. Leading Maryland most of the first half. CSU offense very effective at getting good shots despite a major disadvantage vs. Queen inside. And the defense is making Maryland work hard to get Queen the ball.

    Is he a candidate? I haven't seen much connecting him to the job tbh.

    Is Gophers basketball really one of the toughest jobs in the country? | BMTN video

    Nowhere near the toughest in the country. One of the toughest in one of the 2 major conferences, maybe.

    He's the real deal. And he never leaves a bad impression - he's always welcome back wherever he leaves. I'll take Evans and Crocker-Johnson, please and thank you.

    I see a bunch of guys I'd like to be Gophers next year. And one very good coach leading them. I'm sold. Iowa or WVU can have McCollum. Give me Niko.

    Oh I didn't mean to imply that any of this was fair. Just that's how it is. There are always going to be two standards in NC -- one for UNC and one for NC State. The Wade era should if nothing else be completely hilarious.

    Big brother is part of the problem for NC State. The NC board of governors that runs UNC is essentially selected by the legislature (there's a vote but obviously this is not likely to be a matter of great spirited debate). Big political reward piece. One of their recent presidents was a yacht...

    Absolutely what I thought. If there's a youngish coach that can handle the Minnesota job, he's it. They are really well coached and kept their composure well when Missouri came back at them, forced some mistakes, etc.

    The Case for Niko (aka Niko’s Case)

    Very astute observation on the John Denver song. Doesn't matter anymore but you're right. I don't know how this is going to end up but I don't think conference geography is going to matter. All of the conferences are pretty much all over the place now. Big 12 might be slightly more compact than...

    It's a gutwrenching choice. You're basically deciding which side of your family gets to see their kids and grandkids more, to be tighter with for the forseeable future. That he tends to go back and be welcomed back places he was before is a great sign for how he represents a university...

    They met at Furman, dated when she was still a student actually. Her dad is a business community bigwheel in Morgantown and their family has been in WV for more than 200 years. I don't like how this reads for Minnesota.

    They're also looking for a coach now, have pretty decent NIL, and are located in the hometown of his wife, whose dad is a quite wealthy businessperson in WV, and grand-dad was a WVU professor. Her family has been in WV since it was VA and not WV. I'm not sure the family factor is on...

    So...who would happen to be the choice if Medved didn't come? Bc I'm looking at WVU and thinking...he might not come.

    Her family has roots in WV from before there was a WV. This could be a big problem.

    Oh my God what a choice. This could be a divorce-maker lol. His hometown vs. her hometown. Oh my goodness. Just found a bigger problem. Her dad is Mark Nesselroad, this guy: https://www.glenmarkholding.com/team/mark-r-nesselroad/

    It very well might. It was just better when it wasn't really a consideration that anything would need to win out.
