Ben cooled on him.

I wouldn't happily admit I was wrong, but I would admit I was wrong. 😂 Haven't had a good look at the team yet but from what i have read, we play solid defense, hustle, and actually run an offense with ball movement/off ball movement. It's a recipe for success if we can continue to build on it...

Core 4 Men's Sports Championship* (Football, Basketball, Baseball, Hockey). My life is pain. Go Wind Chill, Lynx, and Frost I guess 😂. I did see two Gopher Hockey Championships at least, but was too young to care/understand. I golfed with Jimmy Snuggerud the summer after they lost the...

I was born after the Twins won the world series and am a fan of all Minnesota sports. I haven't seen a single professional men's major sports team make a championship. It is completely my fault 😂

That's about when I turned it on... it was 47-51 when I turned the TV on. Wasn't quite paying attention yet, but I looked back at it was 60 something to 47.

Tech was missing their starting Center/Best Defender, Illinois was missing two starters. Huge free throw disparity in Illinois favor. I am walking away from that game impressed by both teams. Both looked like Elite 8 teams. Toppin might be the best player in the NCAA.

There are a few other ways to sail the seas that should work too. I have YTTV, Hulu/Disney/HBO bundle. Enough is enough with these streaming sites, they have priced me out of being able to watch every game. I play trivia on Wednesdays so maybe the game will be on at the bar (probably won't be...

Win on Wednesday and we can jump up the ranks quick.

Oregon hasn't looked great this year. 1 point win over Hawaii and 5 points over Rice. Ucla is another team that hasn't impressed. 6 points over Eastern Washinton and 11 over Pepperdine. Couple of teams we can pass in the Big 10?

Fair. The lineup did shrink as the year went on. I don't think we see it shrink to the same degree that we are used to with Ben. I am excited to see how the season turns out and can't wait until they are no longer on Big Ten Plus.

I don't know why but Isaac reminds me quite a bit of Jordan Taylor. He is a little bigger and Jordan developed into a more consistent scorer but I think its just that they are both solid facilitators and always seem collected.

I will not get upset about power rankings. I will not get upset about power rankings. I will not get upset about power rankings. Minnesota finished 12th in the conference last year (granted 5 way tie so it could have been 16) with a much worse coach. They only got 2 out of 5 of the starters...

One of the most encouraging things from last night. We jumped out to an early lead, and it let Niko play his bench and try different combinations. Hopefully getting the end of bench players experience playing will help when they are inevitably needed late in the year. How often did BJ play more...

Same boat here.

Niko didn't make the NCAA Tourney until the year we hired Ben. I thought he was under qualified at the time (granted we went with someone less qualified and who had never played or coached on a good team).

The road to March Medness starts here! Lets Go!

Might as well post mine now that it is closed: Power 5 + Gonzaga (8) Duke UConn Purdue Houston Gonzaga Florida Texas Tech Michigan American/Atlantic 10/Mountain West/WCC - Gonzaga (2) Memphis San Diego State Mid- and Low-Majors (the other 22 conferences) (2) St Thomas James Madison Final...

One more day until deadline. SS will you be posting The GopherHolers lineups(or all of them) and/or standings here. Or just through email?

Hubert Davis is one of my predictions to be gone after this year. I don't think he is a very good coach. This will be called fan fiction, but Kyan to Minny next year?

I think Tyson will be much better here than at UNC. We have an offense that caters to his skills. Medved was successful getting his guys open looks at CSU with ball movement and off ball movement. What exactly does Hubert Davis and his teams do well? They rode a RJ Davis and Caleb Love heater...
