    GOPHERS HIRING BEN JOHNSON

    Nobody is arguing they have had sustained success, they are merely overperforming their expectations. The Gophers have impressed the fanbase and given us hope they will win some more big ten games, that was a tall order a couple weeks ago. Just admit you were wrong about the Ben Johnson hire.

    GOPHERS HIRING BEN JOHNSON

    winning two road games against quality opponents proves we can beat quality opponents..on ..the...road...something that is hard to do in college basketball. Which is well documented by Pitino's away record. Watching the team this season you can see the amount of defense, ball movement, hustle...

    Joe Rossi Talks Defense

    seems like a smart guy. Not blown away with any sort of head coach charisma, but as you know, that is not always required (Chryst.)

    College Basketball 2021-2022 Thread

    It's funny when anybody falls over like he did and then he made an awesome play! The clip is much more than making fun of a overweight person. Does he plays OL on the football team?

    Lived overseas during the Pitino era. What went wrong?

    I feel similar. He wasn't really any better or worse than Tubby or Monson. Mostly Mediocre.

    The Ben Johnson Hire vs. Comparable Hires

    I'm jealous of Iowa State basketball right now.

    Ben Johnson and this team

    Count me in with the group of people who thought BJ was a convenient, low cost, diversity hire. If BJ can continue to get his players to hustle for the whole game, play tough defense, and eek out some wins he will have success attracting talented players to the program. Even though they were...

    Kerwin Walton losing playing time

    Yeah I figured that was the case, but often private school kids choose elite private colleges for the cache. I don't know anything about Dainja but he went to a better program and its possible BJ was shooting his shot. Monson & Pitino both rolled the dice on MN born transfers with mostly poor...

    Kerwin Walton losing playing time

    I agree with you but.... Ben Johnson transferred the the U after choosing a different B1G team out of high school. He has no qualms about the U being the soft landing spot for misfit MN high school ballers.

    Court Rush?

    Its quite a stretch to equate the worst ACC and SEC teams with MSU

    Court Rush?

    1% chance. A true B1G roster will dominate us physically all game. I will be watching though, just in case.

    Brief MN mentions in "Inside WI Recruiting" from The Athletic

    Coach 2 is saying what 33% of people think about PJ. Its always going to be a running thread, he's just not your Woody Hayes coaching archetype who has a rough exterior and rules by fear. PJ is the energetic guy selling life building acronyms and a lot of people love to hate him. What matters is...

    Royce White is expected to make his pro-MMA debut this Friday

    Pro wrestling is like a circus and he's a freak?

    Royce White is expected to make his pro-MMA debut this Friday

    Royce is a controversial figure. Maybe MMA will lead him towards pro wrestling, which would be a good fit for him.

    Texas to Start Buying its OL

    Texas has all the baked in advantages and they still suck.

    SERIOUSLY????

    I love the team has done so far. Hopefully there is this much enthusiasm later in the season.

    Reusse takes shots at Heather Fleck, "cowardly folks at Gopher Hole"

    We don't compare well to Iowa and Wisconsin over the past two decades. As for the present, I think we are as good if not better than both. We are building up some steam and will win the B1G West in the next year or two. The only foreseeable field rushing at the bank would be over Michigan, and...
