    4 star Sam Jackson recommits!

    Might want to check your sarcasm meter. Pretty sure it was a joke.

    All Things Class of 2020 Recruiting Thread

    For my money, the ignore button is so much better than bashing my head through the wall. Just a statement. Not related to anything in particular in this thread.

    Your all-time favorite Gopher basketball player

    100% agree. Townsend was exciting, but not really a point guard. If you needed someone to get a shot up, he'd find a way, but I was usually holding my breath when he pushed the ball up the floor. I was at the Iron Five game vs. OSU (Dennis Hopson and Brad Sellers). My #1 favorite sports...

    Which player made you fall in love with March Madness?

    I also went to the exhibition game they played at the Metrodome. It was the first basketball game played at the Dome and my first time watching McHale outside of Williams Arena, which I was barely old enough to remember. My answer to this thread is Steve Alford. I marveled at how a short...

    Gophers Recruiting CB Avante Dickerson Again Now That He's In Portal

    PJ clearly offers something entirely different to these young men and their families. He doesn't use the same techniques as everyone else and preaches different priorities. This seems to hit home with some (not all) young men and we're seeing the benefits of PJ's approach. My goodness, this...

    I understand the frustration. I tend to roll my eyes at the subtle digs at my coach, but it cleary bothers you quite a bit more. Why not just block him and move on? I've done that with a few posters and my experience here is better for it. I get just as frustrated with the crusaders who feel...

    Brockington Commits!

    I have to think there are SEC schools wishing they'd gotten involved earlier. They have to hate the idea of PJ poaching from their backyard! It'll be interesting to see where his offer list/star rating end up before it's all said and done.

    I agree. I just seem to remember that this was how they were able to sidestep justice.

    Are you assuming (don't ever assume...) that it is: a. preposterous that any student could be having trouble deciding this late. b. preposterous that Kerwin is having trouble deciding this late. c. unlikely that Kerwin is having trouble deciding this late and using the word "preposterous" as...

    Built...I feel like remember reading that a disproportionate number of the students were athletes being funneled to the classes by "academic" advisors. The university weaseled their way out of punishment because the courses were technically open to all students (though athletes were the ones...

    Willis to Grad Transfer from Minnesota

    I hope the Greenlee situation doesn't turn into another Justin Cobbs situation. Cobbs got much more time than Greenlee, but also seemed to have a bit of a short leash. Cobbs transferred out and was a Cousy Award finalist at Cal. I'm not saying Greenlee is as good as Cobbs, but it's not...

    Dutcher days with 7 footers on the roster

    I agree that a program needs a system, but having a couple tricks up your sleeve is a great way to gain a possession or two...and it’s fun! It gives players a chance to focus on new things in the same way a trick play in football is a way have fun and potentially catch your opponent sleeping...

    Dutcher days with 7 footers on the roster

    I'm personally a man guy, but I'm intrigued by the possibilities to run a couple different looks at people. Love pack-line, especially with the shortened shot clock. It often creates forced shots from the offense and gives better rebounding position than the on-the-line-up-the-line method...

    Dutcher days with 7 footers on the roster

    I'm intrigued with what a zone could look like with some of the long-armed athletes we'll have next year. Robbins protecting the rim with Ihnen and Mitchell anticipating passing and bringing weak-side help? Carr and Gabe pressuring all over the backcourt? Yes, please!
