    How would you grade the 2025-26 Gophers basketball season?

    Frankly, it was kind of a weird season. We had as many conference wins over teams with 10+ wins (3) as we did losses against teams with 14+ losses. I guess that speaks to our extremely short bench, but we had the talent to beat top-third level teams, while also inexplicably losing to some really...

    Gophers sports, ladies and gentlemen. It’s our brand.

    Tonight we’re like the Blue Brothers when they finally get to Chicago, get out of their car and it completely falls apart. This game feels like the boys have given every ounce of what they have this season and there’s just nothing left.

    A lot of dumb, high risk passes the last few trips down the floor. Gotta clean it up.

    I think we’ve missed at least 10 shots within 2 feet tonight. At least it feels like it.

    All 10 players are above free throw line extended when we have the ball. I guess Rutgers has decided to defend the 3 tonight, huh?

    The Indiana AD is already on the phone proactively declining their Crown invite.

    Lost 91-42. Damn, if you’re gonna go out, go out with your pants around your ankles, I guess. Looks like while the Hurley smug asshole gene was divided evenly between Bobby and Dan, Bobby got all the good player genes while Dan got all the good coaching genes from their dad.

    Multiple media outlets list Mark Coyle as a candidate to replace Mitch Barnhart who is retiring as Kentucky AD

    I think he's done ok overall, but my snarky comment pointed more toward the feeling that he's a recluse who's rarely available to the public. Fans almost never see or hear from the guy, which as the de facto CEO of a major university's athletics department, isn't optimal (at least to me).

    Multiple media outlets list Mark Coyle as a candidate to replace Mitch Barnhart who is retiring as Kentucky AD

    I mean, if he left for another job, would any of us actually know that he left?

    They know that without that gimmick there will be 2,500 fans in attendance every game. They’re desperate.

    Minnesota Golden Gophers in the NFL - 2025

    PJ's guys have gotten some healthy second contracts: Mafe, Winfield, Faalele, Bateman, Cashman have all done nicely and are young enough to potentially get another bite at the apple, especially Winfield.

    With the 11 seed we’re on a path to play 3 teams we’ve beaten this year (all at home). I’m sure the very short bench will pose a challenge in back-to-back (to back? to back?) games, but let’s keep this entertaining season going!

    Fears the squirrel went searching for nuts again

    How many nuts does a guy have to donkey kick before the conference takes the discipline out of Izzo’s self-interested hands and levies the punishment itself?

    Crazy finish in Eugene. Ducks blow a 21-point lead, get it back on a 4-point play with 11 seconds left, then salt it away when Sprinkle is ejected and they hit 4 FTs. Looks like we’re the 11 seed in the tournament!

    Getting killed on the offensive boards by Northwestern certainly isn’t a positive.
