Retired basketball official here. A kick has to be an intentional act for it to be a violation and whistle. It looks like the ball inadvertently glanced off the Osseo player, which is not a violation.

They need a 6’8” forward who can shoot like Battle, but who can rebound and play defense.

Of course if he can finish his Carlson degree in one more year that would be an excellent outcome for him.

Christy’s has had an excellent freshman season but he’s not NBA ready IMO. By staying another year he could be an NBA first rounder. Fortunately the NBA has a process in place to give feedback, and will encourage players to stay in college if that’s in their best interests.

Yes, pretty sad that someone didn’t intervene right away instead of encouraging the fight. Where were the coaches or captains.

And you know this because………..

Surmising that the ice fishing photo op was NIL sponsored is just likely a statement of fact, not stupidity. I see nothing in that posting that is critical of NIL or shows its approvals for Gopher athletes while criticizing other universities for having better NIL opportunities.

There are two likely GOPHER transfer sources: Minnesota players who went away and want to transfer back for whatever reason, like Fox; and successful mid major players like Hawkins and Mitchell who want a bigger stage to prove their worth. I doubt that NIL is a main factor for these types of...

Canadians love their CFL football, but not as much as hockey.

Smart and mature response by Mitchell. Let your playing do the talking!

Who cares what Doogie thinks?

The ball has to go over the backboard or hit a support to be dead. The sides and top are in play. FYI, I refereed basketball for 33 years.

Edey will have some growing pains, but I think he will be productive In the NBA. He is similar to Randy Breuer in the 80’s, who had a decent NBA career. But I think Edey has more upside.

Despite Battle’s limitations that have been pointed out, he still can drill a 22’ shot with consistency from a front court position. That would help this team. And I don’t wish him ill personally, as that’s bad karma. But I hope OSU to loses against the Gophers and everyone else.

He has lots of high level coaching experience under experienced coaches, just not as a head coach. He played seven years in the NFL, and has UCLA ties. He is also on the current staff so the players are familiar with him, possibly preventing a huge exodus of players. it’s not like they hired a...

He’s not a draft pick right now just based on the last three games. I hope no one is trying to convince him of that.

No. He just wants to control women’s reproductive choices because of his religious dogma. That’s none of his business.

Not wise, just an adult.

A coach needs to show he is in control, and only complains to the officials when necessary. Johnson does that. on the other hand the Arizona State Coach Bobby Hurley is the example of what not to do as a coach. He complains about every call against his team, then wonders why his players get T’d...

To your corners, Boys! No one has a motivation to lie about something over which they have no control. But we can have a different take on the definition of an empty roster. If almost the entire roster leaves when a new coach is hired, to me that’s the definition of an empty roster. It makes no...
