    I thought we were the Deepest team we have been?

    Betts goes 2/3 and 5 points in six minutes in the first half and then doesn't see the floor again. You develop depth, just not going to happen. He's coaching to save his job now, the results can be predicted, might as well be gone.

    Parker Jefferson commits!!!!

    Pretty sure the payment agreements are determine by the collective and spread throughout the Academic year. Would be pretty rare to get anything before they are enrolled and attending classes but it could happen for some of the highly sought recruits that command big bucks. Wasn't there...

    Best time to send Ben packing?

    It àlso depends how you opt to spend the money. If you give any money to non revenue sports it will immediately put you at a disadvantage.

    ***OFFICIAL CLEVELAND STATE AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    He's not slow, he can shoot the ball and spread the defense, he fills the needs of some of the things this team is missing. I don't understand why he is not playing with what I have seen so far.

    ***OFFICIAL CLEVELAND STATE AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    It will be interesting how the ball handling happens going forward. It is pretty obvious that running the offense is not one of Odukele's strength's. He plays decent defense and contributes in other ways, you just have to keep the the ball out of his hands. If Johnson is so inflexible that he...

    ***OFFICIAL CLEVELAND STATE AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    He's a piece, they need scorers, when combined with Rigsby, Mike Mitchel, and an improving Asuma an additional scorer to go with Garcia will help. You can have an Odukele, big Mitchell, or Patterson on the court just not all at the same time.

    ***OFFICIAL YALE AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    And only two are a viable offensive threat. I've been a Johnson backer but I think its time for a change, sooner rather than later and finish with an interim coach this season.

    ***OFFICIAL YALE AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Spot on, you would have thought CBJ would have learned with Cooper what slow methodical PG's do for or to an offense. Asuma looks lost out there but who could play with Patterson or Femi handling the ball.

    ROCK BOTTOM HAS BEEN ACHIEVED

    I didn't see the first half but the 37 points they scored in the second half was a good outing. They needed to shore up there defense in spots in the second half and they wood have won. Not doom and gloom yet. More consistency as would getting some of the injured guys back will help. They need...

    Grayson Grove is redshirting

    At his size I thought that being athletic was his biggest asset. He's got a long way to go but I really like his possibilities. In the first exhibition game he went up above rim to reject the shot of one of Bemidji players driving to the basket. He's not going to stand out because of his...

    ***OFFICIAL OMAHA AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    They played through Mitchell getting injured and Garcia collecting four fouls, that is encouraging. They are new to each other, they are going to improve quickly. Doesn't look very good right now but it could change fast.

    ***OFFICIAL ORAL ROBERTS VS MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    In time I think Asuma starts but based on the two exhibition games, didn't get a to see the OR game, he has some breakdowns on defense that need to be corrected before he is deemed a starter. He's got good size, quickness, see's the floor, and a pretty good shooter for a freshman. He's going to...

    Corn Nation on Nebbie Loss to UCLA

    Yup, Nebraska feasted on partial/nonqualifier recruits. Big 8 was the only conference that allowed giving scholarships to these players. That ended in 94, Osborn conveniently retired a couple of years later.

    Memphis -Missouri, Ohio State -Texas, and Baylor-Gonzaga look to me to be tough opening night games.

    First Round on Campus

    The Vikings Dallas NFL championship Hail Mary game at the Met is the last game I have attended outside after October 31. Promissed myself never again and have stuck with it, 46 years and counting.

    All Things Class of 2025 Gophers Basketball Recruiting Thread

    You almost have to do something that goes against the grain and be good at it to succeed with the limited resources Minnesota has, whatever that ends being. Tough job for most coaches I would imagine.

    All Things Class of 2025 Gophers Basketball Recruiting Thread

    I have no idea but I am guessing the top rated players from the transfer market and top rated high school guys are similar. After that if I was handing out NIL I would prefer a proven guy from the transfer market rather than a high school recruit.

    ***OFFICIAL BEMIDJI STATE AT MINNESOTA EXHIBITION IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    The only guys they have bigger are Garcia and Edmonds, Mitchell was noticably shorter when standing next to Betts.
