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

    Not quite. Big Ten, Big 12, and Big East teams can't accept NIT bids if they are offered Crown bids. There will be only half as many Crown bids as last year and it looks the numbers are set (according to info given by TV announcers): 2 bids to each of the conferences above and two at large...

    I appreciate what he has done this season and look forward to his future here but it's premature to rank him above Tubby just yet.

    At least you don't have to wait for a previous event to finish before watching a game on Peacock. Also Peacock has a lot more programming besides sports.

    Turner no longer a Gopher

    I think we owe something to players who were hurt while playing for us. I don't think we owe anything to anyone else. I definitely hope Niko can land some quality players who can at least come close to what we are losing in Tyson and Reynolds but I think both Vaihola and Willis are at least...

    Turner no longer a Gopher

    1) Yeah, I'd say we owe them that and, if healthy, they are decent players. 2) I hope so and I don't think we owe them anything. 3) I wouldn't be angry if he returned but I wouldn't be sorry if he left either.

    Brennan Rigsby made a rare start for Radford and scored 15 points last night in their conference tournament game. Radford lost anyway and so that's likely Rigsby's last college game unless Radford ends up playing in the CBI. Update: My bad! That wasn't a conference tournament game and Radford...

    Turner no longer a Gopher

    Gophers Nation website posted that. Clearly no surprise. They should cut a couple more (I'd say the two scholarship players who didn't play at all this season) in order to have room to pick up a couple of promising players from the portal.

    Definitely plucked an obscure one although it got to #5 on the US charts. I remember frowning when it came on the radio.

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

    If we win this game and USC loses to Washington, we would be tied with Indiana in conference but ahead of them in 10th place by virtue of being 2-0 against them. Indiana certainly has plenty of motivation to win this game. They need to win both of these final games to feel good about their...

    I didn't realize that he's still playing in the league. He'll be 38 in April.

    Are Gophers Headed to CBC College Basketball Crown, Are You? April 1–5, 2026, in Las Vegas, with games held at the MGM Grand Garden Arena and T-Mobile

    That's exactly right. Last year, the Gophers would have had a good chance with their current record but cutting it to 8 teams significantly reduces their chances. It's possible that USC would choose not to go this season since they went last year. Washington's Steinbach is showing up as a...

    After losing to MSU, Indiana is sitting at 17-12 and 8-10 in conference with two games left. They have a hell of a lot to play for against us on Wednesday.

    ***OFFICIAL UCLA AND CRABBY CRONIN AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Browsed a UCLA board today. It was pretty much like most fan boards after a loss but a number of the game comments suggested that the Gophers did look like they were well coached. One post, entitled "Here's what annoys me," particularly amused me. It was not entirely accurate, of course, but...

    ***OFFICIAL UCLA AND CRABBY CRONIN AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Then you disagree with facts. I was responding to a previous poster's blanket claim that this team wins the games they're supposed to win. I like this team but the poster's claim wasn't entirely correct. You can "would a, should a" all you want but that doesn't change the fact that the team...

    In general, yes, but we lost to Penn State, Maryland, and USC this season when we were favored. We weren't an underdog by much today (+1.5).

    ***OFFICIAL UCLA AND CRABBY CRONIN AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Well, Tyson and Reynolds are out of eligibility. That leaves current starters Durkin, Asuma, and Grove. I don't see why any one of them would leave and I don't know why Crocker-Johnson would either. They'll all get paid here, they would all be likely to get quality minutes, they're playing...

    ***OFFICIAL UCLA AND CRABBY CRONIN AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Yeah, and it's mostly 5 guys. A reasonable expectation earlier in the conference season was that this team would wear down from lack of depth in February but these guys actually have seemed to get stronger, more in-sync, and have upped the stamina and energy as the season has wound down. The...
