Bickerstaff, Burleson, Christie...que the recruiting bounce!!!

There must be some type of funny-business going on. College ADs & higher-ups obviously funnel money to their friends and get kickbacks. I guess the pros do it too.

This is for NCAA fans. Geeks. Not Gopher fans.

History says we will never pay more than about half of what the blue bloods and the Texas schools, etc., pay. You don't win only 2 NCAA games in 27 years at a school like Minnesota without a concerted effort. But I'm holding out hope that this Senior Strategy works. And that the big paying...

Murphy had great post moves. And could do power dunks.

I find it hard to believe that the T-Wolves would be doing anything nice for the Gophers. They act like we're a hated competitor.

No. But I used to kinda like him way back on another site. Even though we disagreed on most things. I remember agreeing with him on something that no one else agreed with...something like that. Anyway... It's just that being a Gopher basketball fan is nothing but irritation. 2 NCAA wins in...

2 NCAA wins in 27 years. And we're hoping that Christie succeeding in 5 years will trickle down...as if he'll be some sort of an ambassador for the Gophers. LOL.

It's better than an empty G-League game. Or the Black Lives Matter League. Yeah, Christie & Asuma can go make the money, that's fine. But I don't have to watch that crap. This is a Gopher board. I want to try the all seniors every year route.

Alright, alright. Hopefully Asuma either goes pro or transfers next year too. And we cheer for Charlotte or wherever Christie went. The only thing that's keeping my interest is the idea of an all seniors team. I only like the Gophers...not other slime teams...so if we're not good, I don't...

Unless he could have improved his stock and then doubled or tripled his money.

I'm just going by what was posted in here. Someone posted that Fox said that Christie wouldn't have transferred. I don't know if he really said that. Which seems nonsensical, since he entered the transfer portal. But hey...we don't need to rehash this again. I'm was just clarifying that I...

Well at least Coyle is right on top of it now.

You'd have to be to believe all the bullshit we're being spoon-fed. But it's just entertainment. If believing the fantasy that we couldn't pay Payne & Hawkins makes it more fun for you...that's fine.

Or maybe some rich guy will just give us $10M for a great team.

Hey since basketball is now separate...can the U of MN venture into...how about the restaurant business? Or how about use the money from textbook sales?

Ok. At least Coyle said he's on it now. Conducting research on how to coordinate and potentially model the Texas Tech method. We don't have oil or software here...but how about natural gas? Or mining? Then we can pay guys like Payne & Hawkins $500K.

Education being a factor isn't brought up as much anymore. But as someone who took a challenging major at Minnesota, I used to find it laughable when it was. As if a school like California would teach the laws of physics any differently than any other school. Although with Newsome & that...

Yeah. And if we won more than 2 NCAA Tournament games in 27 years. We've always had the money though. A few years back Forbes ranked us as the #17 most valuable college basketball team. That's why I previously said that I don't believe the administration propaganda about us not having money...

The problem is...even if we're better this year...other teams might be better too. Everyone might be starting to figure out that developing young players is a waste of time. Other power-conference teams are probably filling their rosters with senior transfers too.
