    Freshman minutes

    Only thing I am not sure I agree with is the Heyer piece. You can be part of a play and set a screen and still be one of the options on the play. I don’t have their playbook so I don’t know their plays. I think Heyer needs to be more assertive offensively, similar to Braun a couple weeks ago. If...

    When does the seat become hot?

    Yes it was, not uncommon to see people taking positions of certainty one way or the other here but the flip from one extreme of certainty to the other is unusual and possibly unprecedented from my experience. Such certainty is unknowable and much less interesting than the area in between.

    B1G Game 15: Gophers Host Nebraska (2-15-23)

    This is really quibbling, she is definitely in the range of 5'11-6'2". I would have guessed 6'1" based on her matchups on the floor. Other sites list her at 6' even. No one argues that she is a bit undersized in height and mass, for a center. 2020-21 Women's Basketball Roster...

    B1G Game 15: Gophers Host Nebraska (2-15-23)

    Husker fan near us yelled NOPE! when Izzy released her 3 point shot. Never heard a peep out of them again as they slinked out of the Barn.

    B1G Game 15: Gophers Host Nebraska (2-15-23)

    The home crowd was all over Haiby on her free throws to attempt to take the lead very late. I am sure that along with the pressure was helpful in Haiby's 2 misses. Crowd was great late!!!

    Whalen needs to go, good grief!!!

    Allegedly, according to Scalia's father, Scalia liked Whay and got along with her real well and he had hoped she would stay but she was stubborn. She enjoyed her experience she just wanted to win more. In my opinion this analogy is waaaaayyyy off base. Sorry, pun intended. Again, I don't...

    Whalen needs to go, good grief!!!

    It sounds to me like you think Maines can hire and fire Whay. Pretty sure that Whay did the promotion but I could be wrong.

    Whalen needs to go, good grief!!!

    Agree, that sounds like poor focus, discipline and taking your eyes off the prize unless a player is pointing out their lapses themselves. I thought the kids these days were all about being “humble”😏

    Is 5 points enough for the word evaporation?

    Whalen needs to go, good grief!!!

    Hope not, and don’t think so, in at least Frost was an arrogant, cheating ill tempered jerk.

    I thought the gals who went to Arizona and Stanford didn’t have the Gophes on their lists?

    B1G Game 14: Gophers Host Wisconsin (2-11-23)

    Just to be clear, we have 5 games remaining plus the B1G Tournament. I expect us to be competitive in all of these games. https://gophersports.com/sports/womens-basketball/schedule

    Treyton Thompson... Deceiving?

    When you speak of facts then you can include last year. He shot 40% 3 last year so clearly he can do it. We know Ben sees him do it in practice too. It is just a head game with him right now. He should keep shooting as far as I am concerned but also work on his interior game. I think he is...

    Whalen needs to go, good grief!!!

    In my opinion it would be the epitome of shooting yourself in the foot if you changed coaches after getting this years recruiting class and the signing of next years class which looks fantastic also. If next year is a disaster too then it is reasonable to start thinking about it in my opinion...

    B1G Game 12: Gophers Visit Illinois (2-5-23)

    I agree with most of what you say other than I think most of her turnovers are on her and not because of teammate miscues. Katie is the best leader on the team right now and is one of the MVPs after Rose because all of the things she does well. I think some of her poor inside shooting are...

    guess some kids just need the attention even when there is really no decision to be made.:sneaky:

    B1G Game 12: Gophers Visit Illinois (2-5-23)

    I thought Katie played pretty well. Didn’t get shots to fall but was great leader, great defense, distributes and took better care of ball and good shot selection. The last 2 areas are still the ones that need the most sustained focus because of having most room for improvement.

    Battle had 3 bad turnovers early.

    B1G Game 12: Gophers Visit Illinois (2-5-23)

    You can see tape on Braun’s lower right leg as she stands at free throw line and no way we can see under her socks. We certainly don’t have mri eyes, but I too don’t recall announcers mentioning an injury. There is only the tape and inadequate defense so injury issue is certainly possible. I...

    Yep, Gustafson, no idea if she caught on in WNBA. Last I remembered she wasn’t getting much run even though I think she was a first rounder.
