    All Things 2021 Gophers Basketball Recruiting Thread

    Nope. Jimmy Williams coached that squad. I watched them beat OSU with Brad Sellers and Dennis Hopson. We stayed after the game and I got my program signed by Jimmy Williams and the Iron Five (Marc Wilson, Ray Gaffney, Kelvin Smith, Tim Hanson and John Shasky). Also randomly got Joe Senser...

    Shama: Dick Jonckowski has been diagnosed with stage 3 non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma.

    Prayers for the Polish Eagle. A good and hilarious man who has been personally very kind and generous to me and my family along with countless others. Get well soon, Dick!

    STrib: The Top 10 Minnesota players in men's college basketball who aren't Gophers

    I think states with similar or lower populations definitely pay attention. South Dakota laments players leaving the state. Nebraska freaks out about their players leaving. In more heavily populated states, there are too many players available to get too obsessed, though I bet they still hold...

    Marcus: If Daniel Oturu had his NBA draft combine workout on ESPN he would might be in lottery discussion for sure

    Neither did he. He said "discussion." I didn't interpret that to mean NBA executives' discussions, but to the wider public "discussion." The fact that you incapable of understanding that it is possible to interpret this another way tells me all I need to know. I'm sorry I don't jump to...

    Marcus: If Daniel Oturu had his NBA draft combine workout on ESPN he would might be in lottery discussion for sure

    I agree with what you said here, but think people were reading a lot into what Marcus tweeted. He didn't say any of the things you listed. I guess your (and my) issue is with the media's overall focus on the sizzle instead of the steak. I'll reread his tweet again, but it seems like people...

    Marcus: If Daniel Oturu had his NBA draft combine workout on ESPN he would might be in lottery discussion for sure

    So...you don't believe that having individual, national exposure would create buzz and have more people talking about him? Again, I'm no Marcus apologist, but I'm not understanding the anger toward this post. He's not saying it would improve his ACTUAL draft stock, just that he'd be in the...

    Marcus: If Daniel Oturu had his NBA draft combine workout on ESPN he would might be in lottery discussion for sure

    I think he just said that Oturu would be in the lottery discussion. He didn't say NBA teams don't have him on their radar. Internet draft "experts" would be drooling if they got widespread exposure to a player with his stats and measurables followed by that solid shooting performance. Marcus...

    Jacob Schuster 2021 DT Commits

    DT always seems like a tough position to recruit. This sounds like a kids who may be able to contribute on day one. Got to love the d-line class...so far.

    Damian Johnson to Benilde-St. Margaret

    I tweeted a “congrats” to him and mentioned I’d love to see him on the Williams Arena bench some day. He replied “That’s the goal!”

    Gophers receive a commitment from Turkish guard David Mutaf

    Lather. Rinse. Repeat. Some seem to love to argue.

    Back in MY day, we didn't have your fancy little Frootie flavored Tootsies! We had ONE kind! It was kinda like a waxy-chocolate flavor that yanked teeth out of kids heads and we LOVED it!

    Nice STrib story on Richard Coffey: 180 Degrees battled COVID-19 on top of tough mission to assist ex-offenders

    Amir's dad may be my all-time favorite Gopher. It sure is nice when a hero ends up being as good a person as you'd hoped he'd be.

    Official 2021 Gophers Football Recruiting Updates Thread: Links, Tweets, Videos etc

    I really like the idea of bringing in DE's with big, long frames that could potentially move inside as their bodies inevitably mature and the strength, conditioning and nutrition kick in. It's not unthinkable that a 6'4"-6'6" athletic high school junior could grow into a special player at DT...
