    Cosgriff on Battle: “I am going to make it my cause to go out and see if we can hang a banner of her at Williams Arena.”

    Agree totally. IMO, both Battle and Wagner are more deserving, although I'm on the fence re: hanging banners for either of those players.

    Okay, my bad with the identical scores which I got from the ESPN scoreboard. Either way, it would have been interesting to see how our Gophers would have fared against Notre Dame or Duke. I'd like their chances against Notre Dame. Not as sure about Duke.

    Identical 70-52 scores today. What are the odds of that happening? I thought Notre Dame and Duke represented themselves well against two powerhouse teams. Will be interesting to see how UCLA reloads for next year. No worries for UConn with Strong and Quinones back.

    What grade would you give the Gophers 2025-26 season?

    A- from me. Probably needed wins over Kansas, Maryland, and maybe Alabama to earn an A. (Although early season loss to Maryland was obviously a learning experience. ) Loved this team's chemistry. Very unselfish. It appears they enjoyed each other and loved playing the game. Pre-season loss of...

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA VS UCLA SWEET 16 IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Huge difference in talent between these two teams but that doesn't diminish what the Gophers accomplished this season. Loved this group of players and I'm convinced that the future is bright for this program.

    Transfer Portal 2026

    Mass defections like those at Iowa State can really cripple a program and its coach. I remember well after the Gophers' Final Four run, and after McCarville was done, Borton lost 5 players (Brobeck, Lacey, Williams, Davis, Podominik) and that was essentially the end of all the recruiting...

    Transfer Portal 2026

    What's going on at Iowa State? I believe that the transfer count is up to 9 and it might be headed to 12. That must have been a toxic environment or terrible chemistry. I think I've read that Fennelly has a lifetime contract, but will he survive this?

    Gophers will play #1 seed UCLA in the Sweet 16 at 6:30pm on Friday night.

    I'm wondering if UCLA might be able to beat some of the lower tier WNBA teams. Even if not, they are very very good, with a roster full of future pro players. That being said, as a Gopher fan, I remind myself that us paper prognosticators are sometimes wrong and there is a reason they still play...

    Iowa's home loss to #10 seed Virginia was a real surprise.

    Bye bye, Buckeyes. Hawkeyes and Buckeyes unable to take advantage of homecourt seeds. I strongly doubt that we'll be able to say that about UCLA.

    Carver-Hawkeye can become a very quiet place when the beloved Hawkeyes are losing. Feel for Steulke. Not a great way for her to end her Iowa career.

    So you're saying you'd rather play a 3 or 4 seed than a 10 seed?

    Gopher Women's Basketball Recruiting Updates

    Well said. I'm also thinking that with Dawn's emphasis on defense, she's going to prefer taller guards, ideally taller than ChitChat or Addie Mack. Tori is tall and athletic and Amaya isn't that far behind (and is a great rebounder with a nice mid-range jumper). As for forwards, I want players...

    Transfer Portal 2026

    With the Gophers success this season and the huge and energetic crowds at the Barn this weekend, it's going to be difficult for portal recruits and high school recruits not to give the Gophers a serious look. Plus the vibe and culture of this current group is enviable. Gritty, unselfish, close...

    NCAA Tourney

    Notes from Maryland's loss to North Carolina: Maryland loses by 8 with Poffenbarger 0 for 10 and Garzon 0 for 6 beyond the arc. Maryland 17 of 31 from the free throw line. And attendance in Chapel Hill was an embarrassing 2400. And, no, the NC men were not playing today.

    ***OFFICIAL OLE MISS VS MINNESOTA RD OF 32 NCAA TOURNAMENT IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Besides the game-winning shot, Battle with some huge rebounds during crunch time. She's an elite rebounding guard and the main reason the Gophers haven't missed Heyer's rebounding much this season. Hart with a huge bucket and some big free throws in the 4th. Braun a huge 3. And don't forget the...

    NCAA Tourney

    BIG with 12-1 record in tourney after Saturday's games. Nebraska the team with the loss. 6 more BIG games today, with BIG teams the underdogs in 4 of those games. Gophers a slight favorite in what should be a very good matchup.

    Nebraska with a comfortable 75-56 win over the Richmond Spiders to open the NCAA tourney. Britt Prince with 22 points on 10 of 14 shooting to lead the Huskers. Will be interesting to see how BIG teams fare in the tourney.

    Liking the pipeline Coach P is developing from Wisconsin. Of course, there's been a longtime pipeline from Minnesota to Wisconsin for men's basketball.
