I believe CBJ has Betts in development phase to be the "next" Amir Coffey-type, which would be the most likely position at the next level. Betts is very quick with good hops, shooting mechanics, and if he put weight onto his frame he'll be the formidable wing you seek. Defense is unknown. He...

I would think CBJ has had that conversation with Betts, and he will see time at the 3.

I'm just going to take one year at a time and hope for the best. MN does have some talented recruits in the pipeline, and the portal will be a constant.

I love when "experts" declare power rankings, winners and losers, etc. After looking at all the Big Ten teams, additions/subtractions I can make an argument against any team NOT winning the conference, and how every team AT BEST will have at least 6-7 conf. losses, and the worst team will have...

Betts could be a breakout player! He stayed for a reason.

I would take 12th in conf. right now, looking at the strength of the Big Ten. That would likely put MN on the bubble, and would mean that MN likely had a 10-10 record. I would love to see that, and in no way would CBJ be fired imo.

Ha! 100% right. I shouldn't be posting at work! So how many non-conf games will be added?

Last season MN played 11 non-conf scheduled games and obviously 18 regular BTN games. So far there are 7 scheduled non-conf games (Yale, Mizzou, ORU, Cleve St, FD, 2-Fla/Wake/WichSt) but with 20 conf games scheduled. With travel, etc. MN may elect to only add a couple more non-conf games...?

CBJ, the non-conference schedule and record (for all the Big Ten teams) is going to be highly scrutinized this next season. In my opinion, there is going to be such a large group of strong teams around .500 in conf. that the MM committee will likely have to consider upwards of 12-13 teams for...

I’ll take the one who hasn’t been arrested

I can see a scenario where CBJ and admin are scrambling at this very moment to secure more NIL $ for final roster spot. I certainly wouldn't want to be a college bb coach right now. I don't disagree with your overall sentiment, but my question was regarding the team compared to last year...

Yea, Jr. is a Sr. and so is Sr. Does anyone think that our frontcourt will be improved from last season? Garcia will be great at the 4 stretch, but I'm uncertain how effective Frank M. and Edmonds will be scoring. (Jordan Murphy buckets w/put backs are just as good as a flashy dunk). Payne...

Mike Mitchell Jr. listed as a junior, which is correct in a way.

OK I clicked.. Got me... PUR, overrated. Kylo-Renn as a center makes them a bunch of gunners. 6th pl finish. UCLA, overrated. Cronin took a USC guy. Fanbase doesn't love him. Will struggle in sched. MSU, overrated. Izzo's trips to Final Four are done. Parolees will likely Fiddle about...

100% true. From the beginning of the NIL discussion, the response was luke-cold, high brow resistance to "paying college athletes". Some kind of moral stance against the wind direction. Mychal Thompson must be beside himself after his $200 mistake he admitted which caused a sh*tstorm at MN.

All eyes on your guy Ken Evans, Jr. today!

What I said was that MN would be better next year than we were in '23-'24, but our record may not reflect it because the Big Ten is so much stronger. I have no idea how good MN would be if they kept all their players. That is a completely different discussion.

We will 100% be better than last year, but our conference record may not dramatically teflect that because the BigTen will be so unbelievably strong after the merge and upgrades around the league. Big Ten could get 12-13 teams in NCAA Tournament.
