    Lots of negativity on this board for a team that should be 3-1

    I'm in the boat of they should be 4-0, so am I disappointed with them being 2-2, yes I am. Nine wins is nice but there was lost opportunity in those seasons to do more than just beat the teams you should and actually win something one time. I'm at the prove it stage. Saying we can't do something...

    Keep in mind, the Gophers went 9-4 as recently a 2022. They were 5-2 at home, 3-2 on the road and 1-0 in neutral site games (bowl win vs. Syracuse).

    In fairness twice (99', 03') Mason was a blown game away from winning the conference and going to the Rose Bowl. I'd say that is better than potentially winning the West but I agree there has been a little more consistency under Fleck. At the end of the day if you want to be taken seriously...

    Valid comment. I don't know what I would have called that Purdue game. I think PJ thought it would be an easy win while sitting Mo. They had Iowa beat then they decided to run Mo into the ground something crazy like fourteen straight carries before the goal line fumble. I'm not saying that was a...

    The Gophers also lost two, if not three, games they had no business losing in 2022. Nine wins is nice but years like those are when you should be winning ten or eleven and playing in a New Year's Six bowl.

    Full banana. Is that the first time since the Kill era?

    1999 Minnesota Golden Gophers

    All they had to do was beat Wisconsin and they would have had a share of the conference title and gone to the Rose Bowl due to the last appearance tie breaker.

    CBJ on Coyle: He knows we've done it the right way. He knows we took the right step last year. I told him we're trying to move the needle every day.

    I've always been curious about people's opinion when they say the U doesn't care about sports and what caring about sports looks like to different people. I think you laid out some examples here. Is it hiring big name coaches, sweeping issues under the rug, admitting academic risky kids...

    Doogie says Payne got “north of $500K, more than entire Gophers” payroll

    Tom Crean was on with Dan Barreiro and said the going rate for a starting point guard was 750k at the end of the season. He said an unnamed SEC point guard just got 1M. Lots of crazy numbers get thrown around but there is too much smoke for there not to be fire. I'm waiting for some rich alum to...

    Funny you mention that Litchfield Carlson team. Our 1A team beat them in the sweet 16 tournament before the season. Litchfield went on to be undefeated and win the 2A title. Our team on the other hand, not so much.

    Gophers commit Isaac Asuma Top 10 PG in the country.

    No Daniel Freitag. Hopefully that means the Gophers picked the right one. I'm sure Asuma/Freitag will be a thing for the next four years.

    We played in a basketball tournament in South St. Paul in junior high against mostly Twin Cities teams. We were small town farm kids. 7th grade year we actually did pretty well. 8th grade year we all walk into the gym and the first thing we see is Johnnie Gilbert on a fast break. Two handed...

    Hell of a dunk. I had a friend in high school that had a dunk tape of a bunch Bouman dunks. There was one where the hoop was attached from poles on the ceiling, the old school ones with the joint in the middle so the hoop could be moved. Anyway when he dunked it the hoop swung back while he was...
