Yeah, Niko is not going to let him do that, nor will he need to. This offense is about cutting and passing to hunt for open shots- this is not a dribbling offense for the most part.

Next year losing a game like this would kill me. This year, while I hate to see it, it's part of the process. We need a full roster with an upgrade in talent. We will get it.

Correct. Despite Maryland's bad record they probably put more talent on the floor than we do.

I'm pretty sure that the offense to go in the paint is developed, we just don't have the guys that can play above the rim to do it. Once we do it will make life for the shooters a lot easier.

Crocker Johnson didn't show up today. Just like Penn State. We need the better version of him. Not all of it is on the Gophers though, Maryland played well and Coit was just unreal. That go ahead 3 was just off the charts difficult. He had 9-13 shooting, 4 of 7 on 3s and 7 of 7 at the line. You...

Well Willis ain't playin' so yeah. I would not trade Reynolds for Evans. No way. I'd be happy to have Evans though. But here's the good news for you Reynolds is gone after this year and there is certainly a good chance we get Evans who is now buried on the bench at NC (0 points in 6 minutes...

"Meyer" has not been great today....

Agreed. Looking back into the non-conference part of the season when we still had Vaihola and Willis and had hopes of getting Omot back, it still appeared that this was maybe a 6 Big Ten win type of squad. If at the time one would have said we won't have any of those guys and our current...

Oil money. They have plenty of NIL

Niko is the better coach. There I said it. What Gophers would start for MSU? Maybe one or two. Then there is the bench disparity. Yet we beat them. Give Niko time and really good players will come our way. Then this is going to be an upper division team year after year.

That's awesome! Looks like the players had a plan not to react to the coach for a few seconds...:)

More than any Minnesota team I have seen since Clem, this team just does what they are supposed to do on both ends. MSU tries to score on the break and we never let them- just as they were coached to do. You almost never see a team win when they get our rebounded by 16 boards- they just had...

No doubt this team could be 6-6 or better now and there are a bunch of winnable games left

Yep. Only 6 turnovers - 48% shooting, shot selection was fantastic. Even with the MSU comeback, we didn't just throw the ball away, it was just MSU hitting prayer after prayer. Future is bright!

Posting him up. I love it.

I think he WILL be trying to advance to the Sweet 16 next year. Why not? Load up, make the tournament and get hot. We absolutely can do that.

If he takes Omot back, it has to be on the cheap and he has to be a guy that we don't depend on. He might be a good player, but they cannot go through what they did this year. Go get 11-12 guys that are healthy and can play- then take a flyer on Omot. If he makes his way into the top 7 or 8- all...

You forgot Anderson. I am not sold that Evans is a fit next to Asuma, but maybe. I think that there will be at least three significant 25 minute + portal pickups. Niko is not going to settle for that starting lineup. He wants to win now.

I just have a feeling that Niko will be able to retain the guys he wants back- at least off of this team. JCJ followed him here. Asuma has been all in for Minn. Durkin is made for Medved's offense. Those are the big 3. I'd guess Willis returns as does Grove. Then you have Vaihola and Omot- who...

We lose Tyson and Reynolds who are both really good players, but this team lacks size and enough shooters. Niko is going to go out and fill those holes. Who knew how good Tyson and Reynolds would be? We will start with a far better returning nucleus that we had this year. Just get three or four...
