I agree, but to win in the B1G you have to do much more than get a kid to the NBA. Both Pitino and Johnson can say they put players in the NBA, but they didn't win in the B1G.
I think, and hope, that Niko can get more money to buy better athletes.
A great coach is only as good as the players he coaches. Medved will have to improve the recruiting exponentially, which means he has to have a lot of money in the bag to buy those players. We can't sugarcoat that truth.
But, I agree with you that Niko runs an enjoyable offense with all the...
The point has been duly addressed and you cannot look yourself in the mirror and recognize yourself as the "woe is me" whiner of the board. You have been the winner of this award for five years running. Congratulations! Where is Bob to grant you the d-bag trophy?
You want to ignore NIL as a player in which team a person chooses. Why do you ignore the modern era of recruiting. It is interesting to see you cry "woe is me" and then accuse others of making up excuses regarding a very real part of modern recruitment.
At this point you are an outlier on this...
You should have written the last paragraph and ended there. Your first two paragraphs show you either don't know the game or you don't understand the process and want instant coffee.
Niko's history shows a coach who builds a consistently good program. He didn't get the superstar players to join...
There is no reason Minnesota cannot be a regular tournament level team. We agree. Our difference is that you want it right now and if you don't get it right now you go into "woe is poor me" mode.
You cannot see this fact. I would point you to your many posts that do just this, but you cannot...
Correct me if I am wrong. We won the 2nd half and cut a 31 point deficit down to 11. Is that not competing?
You're being a debbie downer "woe is us" we can't win with this coach complainer. Every game this team competes. Unfortunately, this team hasn't won the last few games and tonight our...
You're the one saying "woe is us."
There are many reasons why this program can't go from broken down on a rural dirt road to winning the Indy 500 in one year. Your lack of patience is impressive.
SC coach has had a great strategy to press constantly when we are so short staffed.
Combine it with SC shooting lights out and you have a 31 point deficit.
It seems you wanted an instant fix of a car that had been entirely dismantled and left for dead on a rural dirt road. That is never going to happen at Minnesota. You can keep complaining, but understand you sound like an old man yelling at clouds.
