    All Things 2020-2021 College Basketball Coach Hire/Fire Thread

    Ongoing bidding war for Illinois assistant (former Kentucky asst) Orlando Antigua, one of the best recruiters in the country. Would be shocked if he didn't end up back in Lexington, Adam Miller would likely follow him too...

    All Things Gophers Basketball Class of 2022 Recruiting Thread

    Typically wouldn't give up paywall info as I don't pay for access to GI at the moment but considering they had a free VIP day yesterday, that's where that news comes from.

    All Things Gophers Basketball Class of 2022 Recruiting Thread

    Not sure if there's new news but the belief is that the Gophers are very much in the mix for Heide and that the Purdue steam has simmered down after they tried to pressure him into committing early. Unfortunate about King but always seemed the least likely of the top 5 in the state to stay home.

    Roster Projections

    Isn't Miller more of a 4? Seems pretty agile and has a decent handle from what I've seen but I think he might be more of a Jordan Murphy type of undersized 4. Doesn't seem to be much of a floor spacer at all.

    All Things Gophers Basketball Class of 2022 Recruiting Thread

    GI's having a free VIP day if anyone wanted to check it out. Not a ton on the basketball side that we haven't sleuthed out or discussed over here. One thing that stuck out though is how hard Izzo still is after Holloman despite how loaded and young their backcourt is. Transfer PG Tyson Walker is...

    Very excited

    If Ben gets to 8-12 in the Big Ten with a roster that's been completely overhauled then they should start building the statue outside the Barn. Chris Beard went 6-12 his first year at Tech in conference, Muss went 7-11 in his first year at Arkansas, GopherHole fave John Beilein went 5-13 in his...

    Cashius McNeilly & Emanuel Miller (Texas A&M) both in the portal

    It does seem as though, those in Aggieland believe that Miller would be coming with the McNeillys. Apparently Billy Liucci (who's co-owner of TexAgs and really plugged into A&M athletics..appears on the Finebaum show) was on radio down there and insinuated that part of Jamie getting the job here...

    Hey! Look at who is back in the transfer portal and who else just entered it

    I believe this is the sixth player in the portal for Oklahoma. What should have been their top two returning starters in Manek and now Harmon are both in the portal. Rough start for Moser and all newcomer coaches.

    Assistant Coaches

    Not sure if he is any more but McNeilly was an assistant for Team Canada's U19 team which is probably how Nickeil Alexander-Walker ended up at Virginia Tech. Brought his nephew as Bostongopher mentioned and Emanuel Miller (A&M's best player) to College Station from Toronto. Tons of quality...

    Gophers roster construction-expectations vs. reality

    I've tried to remain as optimistic as anyone about this but I have a hard time seeing us being better in the next year. It's going to suck to watch for a year like it did with Fleck in his first season but like in that situation, it becomes easy to recruit. In that, hopefully recruits see the...

    Assistant Coaches

    Bummer about Nuness. I would guess he wanted to be top assistant/associate HC or stay in Waco so I can't really blame him for staying down there. One of those Baylor assistants is probably going to get a HC gig in the near future you would imagine so Jared should get promoted in that scenario...

    Mike Woodson To Indiana

    Some thought Fife was being groomed to take over for Izzo at MSU but he heads back to the ol' alma mater. Could be a similar situation where he would succeed Woodson in the long term. Big news though, Fife was a strong recruiter and was the primary guy on Tre Holloman for Michigan State.

    Carr in transfer portal

    It would be an interesting fit. He did just sit through 30 minutes a night of Devin Askew so Cal may be willing to live with Carr's defensive lapses a little more than he otherwise would. on a side note, Cal doesn't seem long for the game to me. He's been running around talking a big game...

    Carr in transfer portal

    I’ve wondered how different Carr would look in a situation that isn’t “you need to score 25 or we lose” though. I wonder the same about Mason and Coffey. Put some shooters around those guys and the assist numbers are probably higher, less scoring responsibility likely means they’d be more...

    Agreed, don’t know how he got the ball without going through the arm. The pass was incredible though
