Yes, because Stollings wasn't going to make Gophers any better than mediocre to fringe NCAA tournament team, not a contender like the previously irrelevant Oregon schools, Mississippi St, etc. But Gophers can't even be mediocre these past two years.

At least all these blown games will probably mean Gophers stuck in WNIT, unless they keep losing that they don't even qualify for WNIT. It would just be our luck to get eliminated in WNIT by Texas Tech (if even make it that far).

Sounds like the summary to every Gophers Big Ten game since Stollings left.

Last time Gophers had 8-point halftime lead vs Iowa they lost by 18, so I'm nervous.

Maybe she knows more than the coaches do. I always yell and scream at the TV when the only play Gophers run is give the ball to the other team.

And they just beat Oregon St too. Of course, these past years when Gophers actually have a significant non-conf win they decide to suck in the Big Ten, unlike Stollings when Gopher sucked non-conference and were somewhat decent in Big Ten play.

It would be nice if Whalen had any inbound plays besides throw the ball to the other team for end of game situations.

It stinks knowing that the Gophers were a lot more competitive in the Big Ten with Stollings than they have been with Whalen so far.

I have no idea why ADs are more impressed by W-L record than making and winning NCAA Tournament games.

Winning the Big 12 requires getting past Baylor, so probably not.

Especially since it should be teams' goal, if they have any decent players, to make NCAA Tournament, and it should be obvious that RPI/SOS and wins over other good teams seems to be what the committee values the most, and playing the worst teams possible ruins your RPI/SOS and you don't pick up...
