    2024-25 Gopher Hockey Season

    I have to admit living out in Ca., this is only the 2nd game I've seen this year and I'm shocked this team is as physically and mentally weak as they look to be! I don't care if they somehow win the whole thing, Bob must go. It's his 64th bday today... and he coaches like he's 64. Sorry, I...

    2024-25 Gopher Hockey Season

    The Gophers are just not a physical team. They've been getting beat up this whole game.

    My first Gopher Game as a kid was when Musselman was doing this... I was absolutely mesmerized and hooked! Too bad it blew up not too much later! Was that the beginning of Minnesota Sports not being able to have anything nice? Or was it the Super Bowl defeats around this same timeframe?!

    Ben Johnson is a Disaster

    I think he's a media darling to a 'certain' part of the media... I'll leave it at that.

    Ben Johnson is a Disaster

    Yes, have you watched him in front of the camera? There aren't too many things more uncomfortable than to watch him answering questions from the media..

    I haven't been this excited and optimistic about Gopher hoops since mid-Tubby era!!! LFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Yes! I know you loved Richard and I very much didn't so we both have bias. Richard still has the High Profile last name so he's able to get better players.. but Nico I think is the better coach and instills more discipline within his players. Richard has never been able to do that..

    Is Gophers basketball really one of the toughest jobs in the country? | BMTN video

    That isn't in San Diego, that's LA or what has become of the Bay area, or if you want to get into Tahoe.

    Richard Pitino on KFAN

    He did coach 1 year at FIU (Florida International) before coming to Minnesota, and did fairly well too.

    All Things Gophers Coaching Search Thread (rumors, tweets, tid-bits and more)

    Was 28 early in the 2nd half and down to an 11 point lead with 3 minutes left. I kind of like the Utah State coach. Niko seems to be talking to his assistants more than his players. Not overly impressed with Niko as he's not too energetic on the sideline, certainly not like he should be with...

    ESPN's Jeff Borzello: "As of time of publish, it seems Ben Johnson is likely to get another year at Minnesota."

    I don't think Payne was staying due to some issues with his usage etc. that were reported here. Ben didn't exactly excite the players with his style so I think we'd be in the same spot regardless. We're starting from scratch again with a new team next year so why not do it with a new coach and...

    ESPN's Jeff Borzello: "As of time of publish, it seems Ben Johnson is likely to get another year at Minnesota."

    Apologies for duplicating the work done here... didn't see this but agree with everything he says as to me this is proof he will NOT be bringing Ben back.. If he does, then we have more politics involved which did get him the job I think in the first place so very plausible to happen again!

    ESPN's Jeff Borzello: "As of time of publish, it seems Ben Johnson is likely to get another year at Minnesota."

    How can Coyle bring Ben back just based on this information below - I did an AI comparison of Lindsey and Ben - seems to me to be an open and shut case of bringing him back or not!! Lindsey's record was better than Bens... probably doesn't even count the loss today...

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA VS NORTHWESTERN BIG TEN TOURNAMENT WEAKLING WEDNESDAY IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    They had some talent last year and they collapsed at the end. Even with talent, you need a coach to translate that talent into winning basketball offensively and defensively. Sorry to say it but we don't have that type of coach. The players do play hard, so credit to the players and the staff...

    What offense? Whatever they're running is most definitely offensive to the offensive minded..
