    🤔🤔🤔🤔 Or in English for you. Huh! If you mean academic, like readin, writin, and rithmetic, you already missed those. If you mean in the state tournaments, not sure I ever posted anything about that? But so as to see that you have yet another topic to bitch about, I don’t mind the 4 class BB...

    Is Gophers basketball really one of the toughest jobs in the country? | BMTN video

    IF I read the Collective chart correctly we are 11th out of 16 reporting in the BG18. So not at the bottom. But still 11th! Also to the best of my knowledge we aren’t competing only against BIG18 schools for players Payne went to Texas A&M and Hawkins went to Texas Tech. No matter how you cut...

    I totally agree. That said I do think that she is filling a position that while it isn’t her forte, she may be the only alternative on this squad. BTW when I played BB I was an experienced forward. But that does not mean I was any good! lol!

    I wouldn’t worry about USAF. He hands out those comments like Kwik Trip hands out pizza samples. Only difference is Kwik Trips product is of a higher quality!

    This group of young ladies continue to prove/show that they can’t shoot. The Toledo game was not a one of. Hart has gotten to the point that she can complete the inside stuff with her left hand. Battle is good on the middies, and Grace G can put up points, but is erratic at distance. Heyer has...

    all tourney Minnesotan team

    A question? Does the current Gopher BB team have a GM? Who is responsible for hiring? a GM?

    MN HS Basketball 2024-25 Season thread

    Very hard to replicate having mostly one player carry you. In the good old days Waseca constantly imported Australian and New Zealander exchange student BB players who could jump through the roof. I watched one of them one night go for 30 rebounds. That’s far more impressive than 40 points...

    Very few teams move the ball like that.

    Good players make good coaches. In BB if your players can’t shoot your offensive plan is basically just scribbles on a white board!

    NIL?

    That’s a lot of people! The most we ever got into my 1973 Toyota Carina was 6. But we were pretty drunk, so we sort of folded more easily!

    Was firing Johnson the right decision by Coyle?

    Since the pondgopher has been on here since 2012 and only has 28 messages, I am honored to be one of an elite group. What I can’t understand is the reluctance from Holers to see correlation between the Universities athletic dept and the continuing lack of success by the teams. Not all of the...

    Was firing Johnson the right decision by Coyle?

    No the alternative is for the U to start backing athletics like some other schools do. It never has, and likely never will.

    Was firing Johnson the right decision by Coyle?

    Coming from you that’s a compliment! Full disclosure: I can’t remember ever seeing one of your posts, so I was just making an assumption. Glad you assume to be comfortable with Coyles decision making processes. But as a general observation, the same people who have hammered the "DEI" hire at a...

    Was firing Johnson the right decision by Coyle?

    Right decision, wrong decision? What I find more interesting is the idea that so many are excited about having a new coach hired by the same guy who hired the much belittled Whalen, the DEI Johnson, who fired Claes right after he won a bowl game, a hockey coach who has made Gopher hockey...

    Coyle view from a GH favorite

    If by second point you mean the 50-60 years, I am arguing that. I agree there are things skinned ones, but not ones who have done it that long. You simply could not be sensitive to readers comments and stay in the business. You may disagree with you detractors, but you really don’t give a bleep...
