I don't disagree with anything you say here in this post. Your description of the 2015-2016 team is accurate. I'd add the atmosphere in the fanbase and towards the coach was pretty toxic at the time particularly after losing non-conference games against the North/South Dakota schools. It's...

Kind of an odd argument you are trying to pick here. If you replace Joey King with Dawson Garcia in your second sentence it accurately describes this year's team. Joey King's own words during that interview after the game were about the lack of wins that year but how he guaranteed this would...

It's amazing how sports fandom is so fickle and reactionary. Had one possession gone differently at the end of the game, the board would be lit up again with "Fire Johnson" posts. Now we are probably two more wins away from the "Ben Johnson is Not a Disaster" thread getting some more traction...

What type of odds do you have to give for the Gophers to NOT appear on this list at any point throughout the rest of the regular season?

This feels like a worse match-up than most with that frontcourt?

There is almost nothing he can say at this point that won't elicit an eye roll at best to anger at worst as the losses continue to mount and the majority of the fan base wants to move on. Most of the time he says what he "should" in his lower expectations bias. In that sense, I actually feel a...

Is this the real USAF or is somebody posting under his moniker?

I would too. They need to find a proven commodity this time around from a mid-major and/or hire a lead assistant from a very successful program (i.e. Micah Shrewsberry at Purdue). It would be very difficult to get a Musselman type hire to this dumpster fire right now. In my view, this...

Paging @USAF

You might end up being right, but what's the point? Obviously the player-coach is not happening and I'm not sure there is anybody associated with the program today that would make a difference or he would be doing so already. Last February most on this site felt Johnson had done enough in...

I guess I could hop on board and make some easy money. The USAF plan.

Give up 60 this half?

pssst......that sort of thought doesn't jibe with "embrace the suck"

The number of Minnesota players on the roster is not the problem. We currently have seven according to Marcus. Do we need ten? Twelve? We have had a number of players from Minnesota over the last few regimes (Oturu/Coffey/Garcia/etc.) It's been proven over and over again the best players...

Well it is a message board devoted specifically to Gophers hoops. If you can't commiserate/complain/rejoice/whatever with fellow Gopher fans about the state of the program here, then where do you go? You could probably make the argument that sports fandom in general is "temporary and...

Kudos to you for hanging on this long.

What is the updated day count howeda?

I thought the same thing. Betts can't see the floor for more than thirty seconds at a time but then throw him in during overtime when Femi was clearly available? His rotations this year are just bizarre.

They flipped the calendar that year with a 10-1 record and a win at Michigan. After the Michigan game, the comments on this site were overwhelmingly positive about his coaching and the direction of this program. Unfortunately, other than a short stretch last year, he hasn't ever exceeded...

Well, it wasn't pretty basketball but......
