    Official 2026 Roster Movement Thread - Who's In and Who's Out?

    I was going to ask "Why?" but then I realized that transferring to Purdue is sort of a "weird" move for anyone.

    ***OFFICIAL USC (MUSSELMAN BACK IN THE BARN) AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    If the Gophers have a winning record, they would at least be invited to the College Basketball Crown and I don't know why they would decline.

    ***OFFICIAL USC (MUSSELMAN BACK IN THE BARN) AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Tough loss. Undermanned for too long in the first half. Still, they took it all the way to overtime and lost by 1.

    ***OFFICIAL USC (MUSSELMAN BACK IN THE BARN) AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    The good news is that the Gophers are blessed to be down by only five. The Dynes kid is killing us. The Gophers just aren't a team built for that kind of player especially with key people on the bench. Here's to the hope that they can play better in the second half.

    ***OFFICIAL USC (MUSSELMAN BACK IN THE BARN) AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Lately I've been wondering if there is something different about this team vs. some of the teams of the last 12 years. Sure, coaching is a big part of the difference but the way the players have persevered through injury adversity and shrugged off early season failures has been impressive...

    The 2025-26 Gophers basketball season will be a success if?...

    I'm not even sure he'd be a net positive if he did return. He hasn't played in a legitimate game since California's 4th game of last season. This scene looked forbidding a few weeks ago with the only subs being two lightly recruited freshmen. Since then, this 7-man team has played pretty...

    Total Wins During Conference Season

    Obviously, the first week of January has been much more favorable for this team than anticipated at the end of 2025. What I really hoped this team could do was win 9 conference regular season games to end up with at least a winning regular season record (16-15) but I had significant doubts...

    ***OFFICIAL NATIONALLY RANKED IOWA AT MINNESOTA RIVALRY GAME IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    I'm not overly concerned about #6 yet. They compensated for that adverse rebound differential by having 4 fewer turnovers and 5 more steals than Iowa. Through four conference games, Minnesota is averaging only about 2.5 fewer rebounds per game than its conference opponents even after last...

    Describe the Gophers win over Iowa in 1 sentence

    You might be surprised by what you can accomplish with a seven-man roster.

    ***OFFICIAL NATIONALLY RANKED IOWA AT MINNESOTA RIVALRY GAME IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    I agree. I don't go to many games but I was at this one. Reynolds seemed to overpower most of the Iowa players trying to guard him.

    ***OFFICIAL NATIONALLY RANKED IOWA AT MINNESOTA RIVALRY GAME IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    In addition to his defense, Iowa had a hell of a time guarding Reynolds. We didn't have a height advantage on Iowa but we seemed to have a strength advantage in this game.

    Thoughts on Kenny Minchey

    Agreed but it was only last season where we had a one-year rental. We may be safe from that situation for the time being but I don't think that's precluded from happening in the future.

    2026 Schedule

    I think that had more to do with who we were playing on the road than the location of the game. 3 of our 5 road games came against opponents that we simply weren't competitive against. The defense was unbelievably bad at Northwestern but the offense was decent (one of Drake's better games) and...

    Official 2026 Roster Movement Thread - Who's In and Who's Out?

    Went to the MSU roster page. Looks like the older brother transferred to MSU from Merrimack College (where he was a redshirting freshman) at around the same time his higher rated brother matriculated at MSU. So, looks like they were a package deal there too.

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT NORTHWESTERN IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    To equal that number, we'd have to go 4-13 the rest of the way. I think we'll do better than that but I do have some concerns about running out of gas in February and March.

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT NORTHWESTERN IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Well, that was just wonderful! Conference win on the road. What a great day from Reynolds and his scoring partner Grove! But, a team effort once again and great job on the boards.

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT NORTHWESTERN IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    I think they played pretty well in the first half. These are two teams from the bottom half of the league so the Gophers need to show that they are at least competitive and close to these teams and they've done that in the first half. Good minutes by Grove so far to compensate somewhat for...
