    ***OFFICIAL NORTH CAROLINA AT MINNESOTA 2024 SEASON OPENER IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    It's not Brosmer, it's Fleck. It's Harbaugh. That's how they coach the kid.

    ***OFFICIAL NORTH CAROLINA AT MINNESOTA 2024 SEASON OPENER IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Offensive system is a joke - I'm going to try to hang in here as long as possible tonight watching this

    Gopher Potential Portal Pursuits

    KenPom had the Gophers at 115 Defensively last year. Need a huge jump.

    Gopher Potential Portal Pursuits

    If this group isn't a Top 50 Defensive Team (Likely will need even Top 20-40) we won't be good enough to make the tournament. It's true, we don't have the offensive talent to make up for us being a mediocre defensive team.

    Gopher Potential Portal Pursuits

    With our current staff and rumored NIL, 7 out of 10. The team will be better this coming year than last year. And that's with losing Payne, Christie, and Hawkins. Ben deserves come credit. Still have to play the games, but I'm alright with it.

    Gopher Potential Portal Pursuits

    I think it's likely the Gophers Portal season is over. I'll give it a 7 out of 10, decent enough

    Seriously How Can The Gophers Compete???

    Feels like a team without high end talent, but should be physical, not turn the ball over, and we absolutely need to be a Top 50 Defensive team in the country. I like this team. NCAA tournament is reasonable. Need to make it happen.

    Rothstein: Basketball Pre-Season Top 45

    I agree. I can't believe that's what Vegas set it as.

    Rothstein: Basketball Pre-Season Top 45

    Sure, I guess maybe I'm reaching for that exact situation. But I'd imagine most years the Gophers are going to be undervalued in both Basketball and Football because nobody expects anything out of Gopher Sports nationally. I appreciate you keeping me honest here

    Rothstein: Basketball Pre-Season Top 45

    I think the over/under listed at 4.5 for the football team this coming year says it all for me

    Rothstein: Basketball Pre-Season Top 45

    Nobody respects our Gophs in Football or Basketball. We can be Top 10-20 type and they'll throw us outside the Top 45. However, we definitely have to earn our way into the Top 45 with how we've performed the past 3 years.

    Is the 24-25 roster our version of 'Moneyball'?

    I'd feel pretty good that JOJ did not get 500K from Cal. I'd imagine Cal is working with a similar budget to us. Maybe slightly higher. Unless Maddog has really boosted that NIL, which could be.

    Shama: Put this in the 2025 prediction bucket: incoming freshman point guard Isaac Asuma will be the Gophers’ starting point guard by mid-January.

    We're going to have depth, so Ben needs to be able to use that as an advantage. I wouldn't mind seeing us up the tempo against teams with short benches, and teams with slow guards.

    Trey Edmonds commits to MN per On3

    I'm right with you on what you have here. I do think Betts will find his way into minutes this year. He's a talented kid and he needs to make it happen. Ben needs to give him that chance as well. I'm hoping some way, some how, Williams can earn minutes as well. It would just be great to see...

    Returning Playas for 2024-25

    Yes, you got it: Patterson / Asuma / M. Mitchell M. Mitchell / Grigsby / Williams Okudale / Grigsby / Betts Garcia / Fox / Betts Mitchell / Fox / Edmonds It'll be competitive to earn minutes. Betts has his work cut out for him. I don't know who's going to play the most alongside Garcia...

    Returning Playas for 2024-25

    Most complete roster we've had (I'm already assuming Patterson as a lock) Lacking high end talent a little bit but this is the year we UTILIZE OUR DEPTH. Yes, I said it. Use the bench Ben!

    Gopher Basketball Portal Money - $1 Million

    The thing that bothers me most about NIL is that it's not like it's a set number. Especially at Minnesota, I think it's more accurately what the interest / belief in the program is. The potential NIL at Minnesota is big, there's just not that much interest in the product we have right now...
