It’s widely know in the basketball circles that Mr. Chapman has been pimping young Taison for years. Sold him to Nick Carroll, Totino Grace, and D1 Minnesota. Now he’s negotiating his NIL money. Playa is trying to change the narrative because of his D1 affiliation.

Pimpin is a good word. Playa is a D1 guy. Of course he knows the family well.

I think the Gophers land Winter. Ben can sell Winter on the way they’ve successfully used Battle and envision Winter in a similar role. No chance at Chapman imo. Haven’t heard anything about recruiting him recently. The issue is his dad. He’s been shopping his son for years and I don’t think...

Why isn’t it realistic? North has way more issues then who they hire as a basketball coach? That principal is lucky to have a job! They same lady who led a school walkout that led to a student’s death was brought back because of the community. To be front and center of a basketball coaching...

The North principal should not be hiring basketball coaches. That’s the AD’s job.

Nope not talking to you 2 days later. If you wanna air it out let’s go!

Fake offers are prevalent to the conversation about the Gophers? I don’t see it. How does fake offers hurt the Gophers? You made a personal attack on the man which leads me to believe it’s personal

And if you want to have a real a real conversation about the history of what is now and if you wanna have a real conversation about the history of what is now D1 I’d love to have it. So I’d chill if I were you when you think you can come at me.

Ha… I get it now. You’re a D1 guy!! That’s why the personal attacks. Makes sense. Ive actually been more aligned with Pulley and Magic (before D1 stole their players). I was wondering why you cared about fake offers. I’m personally happy we got Carrington. Wish we got King and Holaman but guess...

What does that have to do with the conversation? Carrington played Sizzle and is still a Gopher correct? Ben doesn’t have to recruit AAU programs directors. Let’s be honest, D1 has struggled the last couple of years and since Michael Hurt they haven’t been advocated for the Gophers. Like I said...

Sounds personal. Don’t know the fake offer stuff but I do know about shoe circuits. Those names sound good but to compete on those circuits you need pros. Ben only targeted one player from that team and got him. I think there’s some truth to what he said along with some theater.

NIL will be a key factor in his decision

If you know his dad you know NIL money is definitely part of his decision.

Carrington will be what we hoped Gabe would be. Payne has the highest ceiling for improvement. He’ll continue to get better and as he faces tougher competition on a consistent bases.

I heard the same thing about Payne

I’ve seen Dodd and Holloman play. The difference in the 2 are closer then you want to admit.

A better comparison would be Ryan Larson imo.. good player but you have to be special to be a 5’11 guard in the big ten or any HM.

Carrington won’t be one of them

That’s hilarious! Even if that’s true, which I’ve never heard it doesn’t matter. He’s quick enough, fast enough, smart enough, and tough enough for Ben and Thorson coach him up. His number one issue as a HM or MM D1 player is his ability to shoot the 3.

Don’t know? There’s a big difference between interest, an offer, a committable offer, and signing. Lee’s “final 3” were Kansas, Stanford, and St. Thomas. See how this works?
