    Ben Johnson is a Disaster

    People can call all of the bellyaching piling on. But it's justified. Ben just went last night and let his guards chuck 30 three point baskets!! 30!!!! when they couldn't hit the broad side of the barn! When they took the ball inside they scored almost at will. A successful BT coach flat out...

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

    I take back what I said earlier about these guards being the difference. The played like absolute fools, idiots, no brain kids that we've seen throughout all of Ben's time here. Chucking, chucking, chucking, zero passes, one pass. Not even close on half of them. Christie has potential I guess...

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

    This Athletic department would never do something like that. "IF" the gophers really want a chance at making the dance, tonight is a game you have to win. Home games against teams you would consider equal or lesser than yourself flat out have to be win. Win and keep it going, lose and I'll...

    Who will replace Saban?

    You are probably right, and I know he's a good coach. I just don't care for blue blood programs. Most got that way by bending the rules.

    At 3-1, are the Gophers good, does the B1G stink, or is it a little of both?

    Guys that don't turn the ball over. Take good shots. Run the offense. Aren't chuckers. Bobby J, Ariel McDonald, Eric Harris are three that come to mind off the top of my head that were MN gophers.

    A season on the brink

    Quite possibly the greatest sports quote of all time.

    Who will replace Saban?

    It doesn't matter. Hire a golden retriever and they will still win. Cheated for multiple decades and still do. NIL coming out their behinders. Jimmys and Joes...

    Oregon has Minnesota needs

    Glenn went to Mankato, lives there and donates to MSU-M. The basketball arena is literally called: The "Taylor Center".

    It's possible and I am not backing this up with any facts and I will concede that. I just know that whenever there is a regional or frozen four out east there are like 100-200 people in the stands even when it's being played in some of the team's backyards.

    At 3-1, are the Gophers good, does the B1G stink, or is it a little of both?

    Yep, 20% would account for that. Hawkins, Christie, Mitchel. That is the difference. Guard play is what makes teams go. Why do you think Wisconsin is always good? They recruit SMART guards that defend, don't turn it over and can make open shots. Usually they aren't even very good athletes...

    At 3-1, are the Gophers good, does the B1G stink, or is it a little of both?

    Not no chance, but less than 20%. They haven't had a guard that is better than anything Mankato state has had under Ben until this year. It makes all the difference. I suppose Willis and Cooper, but I would argue those guys couldn't hold this current backcourt's jockstraps.

    Baseball and softball also have tons of travel. They are on a plane every weekend until at least April.

    Non Revenue Generating Sports

    This is so just not true. Travel, coaching salaries, trainers, strength and conditioning, etc. It costs plenty to run any college program. Do you think track brings in any revenue? I would guess they bring in under 10k per year. Probably even less.

    If you did this it would be North Dakota and MAYBE MN, MN St. and St. Cloud. That's it. Literally hockey has much less interest nationally than womens bball, softball, etc.

    Even with poor non-conference slate, 21 wins should get the Gophers a ticket to the Madness

    86 NET now after Nebraska helping us out. NCAA or bust. To hell with the NIT. I'd rather watch womens table tennis.

    At 3-1, are the Gophers good, does the B1G stink, or is it a little of both?

    Payne is a terrible FT shooter. Shaq like. Honestly, it would do him good to just try to old granny shot. I bet he would make quite a few more than what he does now this way.

    At 3-1, are the Gophers good, does the B1G stink, or is it a little of both?

    I would disagree with this. They might have won one of them. Yes, Mich and Maryland are down, but maybe you should check in on Nebraksa, they just handed Purdue their butts last night.

    At 3-1, are the Gophers good, does the B1G stink, or is it a little of both?

    I voted a little of both. But here is the main thing I like to see. This team plays MUCH harder than anything we've seen from Ben coached teams yet. This teams plays MUCH better defense than anything we've seen from Ben. This team has MUCH better guards than Ben has had here so far. They have...

    Going into the Big Ten season, the Gophers team is?...

    Only reason I think they can win more now is the Big Ten doesn't look great. Yes, there are those few teams, but overall, I'm thinking there is a big bunch of teams that are all about the same right now.
