    Ben Johnson is NOT a disaster....

    We write like Ben can't manage his roster. He has consistently recruited under the radar guys who turn out great or long after he offered them, get noticed by better teams. He's had to deal with injuries in the past but because he has depth this year, he hasn't. He lost our 2nd best player...

    Even with poor non-conference slate, 21 wins should get the Gophers a ticket to the Madness

    I’d be happy with an NIT run…it was fun when we won it

    What is exciting is that with a new special teams coach the kids who play on special teams will be able to make meaningful contributions for the first time..

    Ben Johnson is a Disaster

    This! Teamwork is coaching! Pitino's teams never had teamwork. That's why those of us who have studied basketball and coached on some level, can see that Johnson is a better coach than Pitino.

    Ben Johnson is a Disaster

    Pitino was a lousy coach, a lousy evaluator and his players got in trouble. There was more to fire him for than just his team. He was here a long time and didn't take over the dumpster fire Johnson did.

    Ben Johnson is a Disaster

    Johnson will keep his job not only because the team is quite an improvement and won't finish in the basement but because his teams get good grades and stay out of trouble. That too is important for us old fart donors. He has also shown he can recruit in Minnesota...a lot of our good players...

    Ben Johnson is NOT a disaster....

    The team is 5th in the country on assists with our point guard #1 in the nation. Hawkins had tons of turnovers at this last school and at the beginning of this year. Johnson coached him. Our team was last in FTs last year, this year we are average. We pass the ball, we move, we work as a...

    Ezra: Firing Richard Pitino is Looking Like a Massive Mistake by Minnesota

    I couldn't stand watching Pitino's game plans unfold. He was very inconsistent in getting players to improve. I like watching teams that play beyond their potential. Pitino's never seemed to do that and it drove me crazy. I was glad to see him move on. The jury is still out for me in...

    ***OFFICIAL FGCU VS MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Now I'd just like to see them string two solid halves together. Not playing 40 minutes is this team's biggest weakness. The other weakness is the turnovers which it seems they are addressing...

    ***OFFICIAL FGCU VS MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    A good team is a team that works together. All year we've had lots of assists coming from lots of different players. Now we have forced the last two teams to turnover the ball and we've reduced our own turnovers. If that holds we will be better. Last year we stunk at freethrows, rebounding...

    ***OFFICIAL NEBRASKA AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    That was a fun game to watch. For the first time, Johnson has the power that depth gives a coach. He benches Ola-Joseph in the 2nd half and then he comes out on fire. I was also sad to see our hardest working and best player Garcia go down but to see the others rally....Depth will enable...

    What grade would you give the Gophers coaching in the embarrassing loss to Northwestern?

    So many coaching errors but the shocking one is why not kick the 54 yard field goal to end it versus punt it. The field goal is likely over 50% of the time. If it misses they are on the 37. The likelihood that we will punt it and not have a touchback is also 50%. If it's a touchback it's...
