    One thing is certain- we can't pay a bundle for him. I am all for getting him as a guy who has a chance to help. We need to spend our dough a couple of impact guys and I think Niko can get them. If Kyan is our third or fourth best portal guy- that would be terrific.

    Shama: Medved Expects ‘Large Number’ of Returnees to Gophers

    Medved likes him a lot. Willis is good player, he just appeared to struggle to acclimate to the system. So did Reynolds and Durkin and they kept getting better as the year went on. I hope Willis stays.

    I have no inside info, I just feel like this kid is going to be on a fast track and will play a lot next year. Look at what Niko did with Grove. The ceiling of Mpoyi is much higher and his size would be key to the defensive end. He went from 195 pounds to 240 in a year and has a Big Ten body...

    I'd take him in a heartbeat. Averaged 7.8 as a frosh for a good team and has great length at 6-10 with the ability to stretch the defense- shot the 3 at 35%

    Me too. One interesting bit, in addition to the fact that he is just a frosh- is that he scored his 7.8 points in just over 17 minutes per game. I am okay if he is a development guy who is willing to wait.

    Yep. 2 straight years injured. After this year, never be without depth again.

    100% agree! As much as I like Bobby Durkin, the sign that we are really a good team will be having the luxury of using him 20-25 minutes off the bench as instant offense. We need a couple of scorers in the 6-4 to 6-7 range to replace Reynolds and Tyson. I think Mpoyi will have an impact at...

    Hubert is a weak coach who is able to recruit with the North Carolina name and money bag. I think he is a best athlete, make your own play, type of coach. At the end of the game they show the NC bench and the look on Evans' face said it all. Evans shined in the Medved system because it got him...

    I think all of that is true. However, the mid majors will never again have talented teams with experience. The best will not stay. I agree that they will be able to get higher rated frosh than in the past- as will teams like Minnesota. The top 20 NIL teams will take the best of the HS crop (top...

    Let's face it, before it is over, every all conference mid major player with eligibility remaining is going to be in the portal.

    Which QB takes the majority of snaps for the Vikings in the 2026 season?

    We should be happy we have Murray and we should hope that JJ is able to beat Murray for starting QB. That would be best for the franchise. Right now, I would give the edge to Murray but I am rooting for JJ.

    You are not going to sign 4 and 5 stars coaching at CSU, Drake or Furman. Niko will get us talent.

    The Rutgers team you are familiar with got hot tonight. We played hard and had the one bad stretch. It doesn't bother me a bit. We were going nowhere in this tourney. We are in great hands and Niko now can dig into the portal. If he gets us to the middle of the pack in terms of talent we will be...

    Hmm- I guess I have to take you guys' word for it. Statistically he doesn't scream of great shooting- he is a 33.9% 3 point shooter and rates very poorly as a defender on Evan Miya's advanced stats.

    When we recruited him, I watched his videos and hoped for a little bit of Vince Grier. We got it. Langston was terrific in Big Ten play.
