    What’s more important? NIT or Transfer Portal

    Maybe, being first to offer is one of the few things we have to offer. It definitely makes a difference sometimes. And there will be available scholarships!

    What’s more important? NIT or Transfer Portal

    I don’t think you realize how much time coaches put into each game, watching film, strategizing, game planning. I assume Ben doesn’t just roll the ball out there as you seem to feel.

    What’s more important? NIT or Transfer Portal

    Should Ben be concentrating on NIT success or recruiting his ass off to build up his roster? Personally, I don’t give a damn about the NIT, unless some success there may bring us a chance at some transfers like the center who just left Oklahoma State. We need bigs and wings, go get them Ben!

    Transfer season 2024

    Houston Mallette, CG, 6’5, 170 Junior transfer from Pepperdine. Shot 41% from 3, and 80.6 from the charity stripe. Maybe a friend of Mitchel’s?

    Transfer season 2024

    Justice Ajigbor, Harvard, 6-10, 250lb center who led the Ivy League in blocks. Nice backup prospect to Payne.

    #9 Gophers vs #8 Spartans Thursday at 11am

    I see one of two things happening in this match up: 1. Low scoring clunker. Both teams play terrible and it comes down to free throws as Gophers pull out a 47-45 victory. 2. Gopher can’t hit water from a boat and continue trend of playing horrible defense in losing by 20+.

    Bad defense??

    The defense the past 5 games has been pretty freaking awful! Giving up way too high a % of made shots and 3’s. Simple fact of why is most likely tired leg syndrome. The top six guys have been logging extremely high minutes and the Gophers finished with two games a week the final two weeks of...

    If Big Ten Tournament was held today. ...

    I see it like this after Gopher sweep: 1. Purdue 2. Illinois 3. Nebraska 4. Wisconsin 11-9 5. Minnesota 11-9 6. MSU 11-9 7. Northwestern 11-9 8. Iowa 9. Ohio State 10. PennState 11. Maryland 12. Indiana 13. Rutgers 14. Michigan I probably screwed up the bottom, but I can totally see the top...

    Big Week for the Gophers!

    Sitting at 18-11, 9-9, the Gophers still have a chance to get into the discussion for the NCAAs. Win out the regular season would put them at 20-11, 11-9, and get them a decent seed for the B1G tourney. This would at least lock them into the NIT. I find it hard, or at least rare that 11-9...

    ***OFFICIAL PENN ST AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Was any one else surprised at how high Christie got on his baseline dunk? He was way up there! Put 15 lbs on Cam and with that lift he will be worth the price of admission by himself! As for Mitchell, he is a very nice complementary player. If we could pick up a bigger SG or SF, he may make...

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT ILLINOIS IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Typically, you deny the hot guy the ball. Impossible to deny multiple players the ball however, they were all shooting well. If you score 100 every game, you will win a lot of games! If you allow 0 pts a game, you will never lose! - sign in my high school locker room.

    2024 POY

    Edey may win POY again, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see him fall into the second round. I haven’t seen a big man as stiff as him in quite awhile. Don’t see him really adding much to the NBA.

    Transfer season 2024

    We are almost to Transfer Season in Basketball! Time to assess Ben’s 2023 class and what we think he needs for the 2024 class! 2023 Grade: A Solid work by Ben and the staff bringing in Hawkins and Mitchell. Hawkins is going in the record books and Mitchell has been a solid starter all year...

    ***OFFICIAL OHIO STATE AT MINNESOTA IN-BATTLE THREAD!!!***

    The offense didn’t just go to crap the last 5 minutes. It was disrupted by a seemingly endless OSU foul fest! It sure seemed like their strategy to get back into the game was to make us lose at the charity stripe.

    Even with poor non-conference slate, 21 wins should get the Gophers a ticket to the Madness

    13-7 would get Ben coach of the year and put a fork in the disaster thread. To dream the near impossible dream

    We need a statement tradition song!

    I’ve always liked “Closing Time” but that’s for the end of the game. If I was a closer for the Twins, definitely would be my walk out song!!

    Who 👃a 🌽 shucking on Sunday besides me?

    They need to go 4-1 to get in the bubble before the tourney. Would need to go at least 1-1 to make it. If they go 3-2, probably would need to win 3 at the BTT.
