    They lured Adam Boone there by telling him about all the former players who'd gotten medical degrees at UNC, and at the time, Boone wanted to be a doctor.

    Niko’s roster construction

    ...or 29 years more hopeless? Or simply unaccustomed to the idea that success is possible? You get the feeling that, as the years have gone by, we feel like we're flying too close to the sun when a local men's team is in contention for a championship. It's become the impossible dream. 110+...

    Niko’s roster construction

    I hear you, but it's not like making an order from Amazon or in the McDonald's drive-through. You have to have athletes willing to take a leap of faith that Minnesota will truly turn the thing around. We're kinda damaged goods. Of course, I'm going to debate myself by referencing what Coach O...

    And we'll never hear the end of the Will Wade crap. What level of Purgatory is it where you have to listen to the Will Wade crap for eternity?

    Niko’s roster construction

    PJ has had the Gophers in the top 10. Medved has had CSU in the top 15. Those are a couple of really good coaches. Minnesota is better situated for basketball success than football success for various reasons. I have always liked our potential. We have more alumni than almost any other...

    Evans commits to North Carolina

    This seems to be a tough week for some on here, including some of the more toxic usual suspects. It's good to not take sports so seriously that it degrades your well being. Even though I don't appreciate the chaos that contemporary college basketball has turned into, I find that I'm really...

    Nothing's ever a done deal until it's a done deal. In any case, this is a straw man, as I never bought into the report. Maybe you have me confused with another poster. I was hopeful but never convinced. My take since they were eliminated by Maryland is that he was going to have a lot of suitors...

    Niko’s roster construction

    That's a good metric to live by. You need star players. These last six scholarships are going to tell the tale. That said, one reason you hire someone like Niko is his track record of development. The idea is that one of these younger additions will develop into top players before it's all over.

    Like with the Ben Johnson hire, there's not enough info to know for sure. Like with the Heide situation, there was almost certainly mutual interest, but money won out in the end.

    You can judge it how you want it, but it adds up to me. We fans are forced to connect data points and try to figure out what goes on behind the scenes...for instance, with Ben Johnson's hire. From my perspective, where there's smoke, there's fire. It reminds me of the Doug Wrenn situation...
