    New Coach Short List

    I like that list. He's fiery, which is what we need. Also Brian Hodgson from Arkansas State. In 2 years, has had back to back 20 plus wins. They lost in the conference championship, but he's from the Nate Oats coaching tree. Runs a fun offense and he gets the most out of his players

    At 1:19am, 3.13.25. - The Ben Johnson Era has ended and Ben is fired

    As disappointed as this is that it came to this, it was necessary. I'm sure Ben knew it too. I remember the last year of the Monson era and it was eerily similar to it. Great guy and he got his players to keep fighting, but with that being half the battle, that's the reason we won half of our...

    Where does Gophers Rodney Williams rank on the Big Ten All-Time best dunkers list?

    When I was in a high school summer basketball tournament, Cooper was in it and I got to watch him dunk in person and, good lord, was he ridiculous.

    I said at the early part of the season. I bet he would love to come home

    Johnson: “I have some personal pride that I’ll be the only minority coach in the league. I take that with a badge of honor."

    NCST was basically in our position last year before their miracle final four run. So I wasn't surprised by that. And they fell off this year too

    Ben Johnson says Gophers hoping for postseason after Big Ten Tournament (video)

    I think the bold speaks for all of Gopher fans. No one wants to see a middle of the pack team from the MEAC and the SWAC at all, much less make the games wayy closer than they need to be. I get wanting to get wins, but when the nonconference schedule doesn't even crack the top 300 year after...

    Ben Johnson says Gophers hoping for postseason after Big Ten Tournament (video)

    I wouldn't be surprised if he's back, just disappointed, especially if there's an early exit from the BTT. I could only justify it if there's an NC State type of run in the BTT. But I'm not betting the farm on that. There is no shortage of qualified candidates that would leap at the chance to...

    Fire Ben Johnson

    Ohhhh okay. I didn't know it was that nuanced with what Utah and FSU did. That would be my preference as well. I feel like, just being a BIG school alone will attract some good players (probably better than this past year) but the right coach could / probably would bring some of his own players...

    Poll: Should Mark Coyle give Ben Johnson a 5th year?

    It was so impressive, I was overcome with emotion. Annoyed is an emotion, right?

    Fire Ben Johnson

    Times are changing. Miami was talking to one of Duke's assistants a few days ago. They went on and hired him (I'm pretty sure). The transfer portal opening almost right after the championship has made it to where teams need to consider hiring a new coach before the season is completely over.

    Poll: Should Mark Coyle give Ben Johnson a 5th year?

    The poll should have been who we want / need as the coach next year
