At 4 PM CST today on ESPNU, Quincy Miller, LeBryan Nash, and Deuce Bello, all members of the 2011 recruiting class, will announce their college choices. According to RSCIhoops.com composite rankings, Miller comes in at #4, Nash at #9, and Bello at #37. Rumors are that they'll all pick Baylor...

Kevin Sumlin Reasons I like him as the next Gopher Head Coach: 1. He has 3 years of head coaching experience, with success at a program (Houston) that was cruddy since Ware and Klingler left. 2. His connections to the state of Texas and Oklahoma run deep, which is good for recruiting. Since...

I took a look at every BCS team's Non-conference schedules and came up with a top 10 and bottom 10 in terms of strength of schedule. This is my own personal opinion with some help from College football power rankings from a variety of sources (Phil Steele, Yahoo, etc) Note: I tend to give the...

It hasn't been a good run of placing players into the league recently. I know the BT is returning a lot of talent next year but many returned because they were on the the fence of being drafted. Only Turner is guaranteed to be drafted tonight. Manny Harris is the only other player I've seen...

I looked back and couldn't find a recent thread discussing this topic, otherwise I wouldn't start a new one. Now that the season is over, it's appealing to me to predict what next year's Challenge will look like. I looked at previous matchups, rules, and predictions for next year's teams to...

Mine is great, thanks for asking, :)

Looking at markets and matchups, I'm guessing the Gopher play at either 11:30 or 2:00 PM on Friday. Anybody else have more insight before it's official?

that we're out. That's the life of a Gopher fan and a Minnesota sports fan in general. Don't hate me for being the messanger but even though the Gophers might be deserving, what can go wrong will go wrong. I fully expect that when the final bubble spot in the last region will be annouced that...

1. The Gophers beat every BT team this year with the exception of Michigan...and those games weren't even close. Kind of a weird stat given Michigan's overall record. 2. I'd much rather the Gophers end up as a 10/11/12 seed than an 8/9. The difference between the 1 seeds and the 2/3 seeds...

After an emotional game just 48 hours ago, it's not unexpected that the team many come out flat. Nice to see that wasn't the case. Good effort tonight.

Good for him. He looks pretty darn quick. This will be a good opportunity to get him some experience.

Pathetic and lazy. Stare at the ball more Bostick...

Per Roy Williams' most recent appearance on his radio show: "I have more desire in my little finger than all of the dadgum Carolina fans in the world." This in response to criticism of UNC-CH's recent play. http://northcarolina.scout.com/2/939211.html Also, look how he throws Dexter...

and an extension???? That just doesn't add up in my mind. Brewster is responsible for the kill shot hire of Fisch and in the final games of the year, we managed just 1 offensive TD in the final 41 possessions. My neighborhood kids could have scored more than one offensive TD given that...

It's impossible to use when describing this offense. Anything and everything stated about how horrific they're playing and have been playing is literal.

Just poured over the stats and here are some things that stand out (positive and negative). I know it's a very small sample size against less than stellar competition but there are interesting tidbits regardless. On the plus side: 1. Nolen has a 21:2 assist to turnover ratio. That's crazy...

I'm hoping that in '11 or '12, the Gophers get invited to the Maui Invitational. I believe the Gophers have only once attended, back in the early '90's. I attended the event in '07 and it has to be the best preseason tourney out there. In a small, intimate gym, it's always packed and only...

Too often, people posture themselves on this board on one side of the argument, refusing to acknowledge there's a gray area. I don't ever want to be one of those people. I have my opinions about the direction of the program and without question I have my gripes but I'd like to say something...

Anyone also less than thrilled with the current state of the '10 recruiting class? If Brewster has anything to hang his hat on (which isn't much), it's that his '08 and '09 classes brought in a good number of highly thought of recruits (especially compared to Mason). From day 1, he's billed...
