    ESPN Way to EARLY 2024-25 Men's Top 25 - no Gophers...SHOCKED!

    Adding those 4 tv markets, did a lot for revenues and football, but only UCLA is in this ranking for basketball. I guess Oregon must be losing a lot of players.

    Coyle on being “mad” the Gophers aren’t in the NCAA Tournament: “If you could see the text messages to my wife.”

    If we didn’t have the NIl to keep a hometown kid happy, how are we getting a better big?

    NIL musings

    Although I was perplexed Payne wasn’t”t starting the first 12 or so games of the season, when he was clearly our 2nd best post player, it seemed he was really utilizing him well at the end of the season. So it is probably that the U cannot come up with the NIL quite a few other teams can.

    Payne, Carrington, Ola-Joseph and Ihnen...

    I’m pretty sure BJ was being asked about roster balance and his lack of shooting guards. And he said if Ihnen wasn’t hurt he would be his 2. So he could have been honest and said he had an unbalanced roster, or he could say something crazy like Ihnen was his 2. He didn’t say he could shoot...

    Payne, Carrington, Ola-Joseph and Ihnen...

    It’s a bit sad we suffered with all that losing to play those freshmen in hopes they’d pan out later in their career, to now have that whole class leave!

    Remember when BJ was saying Ihnen could be a 2?

    NCAA Bracket 2024 and Games

    “Nobody roots for Goliath’s”. .. Wilt Chamberlain UConn biggest starter sets a pick on Iowa’s smallest player. The ref behind the screen sees Gabby flail and calls it. I was rooting for Iowa but didn’t want them to win that way.

    Dawson Garcia will return to Minnesota next season!!!

    It makes the coach look better. He is hindered by a lack of NIL compared to other schools?

    Coach Johnson: “NIL is recruiting now. We all need to understand that.”

    Some coaches and admins saw this coming two years ago. fleck was able to keep hib best players.

    Dain Dainja in portal. Would fill in nicely for PP!

    Underwood should have started Dainja against UConn! Clingan ate the 6-10 210lb Hawkins for Lunch!

    Wow: Men's Basketball is 13th Most Popular Gophers Team for NIL Contracts at the U

    It should bother us all as they stated the hiring of BJ was partly because of his relationship with mn high school players.

    Take a deep breath, it’ll be okay.

    Take a deep breath, it’ll be okay.

    Mbakwe was 11 years ago, Oturu and Robbin’s were finesse players. My point Is Payne was a monster on a team that has been undersized weight wise muscle wise for decades. Maybe they will find a 6-10 230lb guy who can give you 10 pts, 5 reb. It’s way more than those stats. Just the number...

    Take a deep breath, it’ll be okay.

    When we don’t sign a 6-9 255lb physical presence you will see why I said Irreplaceable for the gophers. We haven’t had a few physical players since the final four team, it’s been a huge weakness in the big ten. We run out finesse players year after year.

    Take a deep breath, it’ll be okay.

    You will see next year how you under rated his defense, physical presence, we now have none, and shot blocking helped our guards. He is irreplaceable and almost every team in the country would love to get him!
