    We've stagnated. Tough conversation below

    I LOVE Coach Fleck and am grateful for what he has done for the program. My son, a sophomore at The U, thinks the world of Coach Fleck and tells me he is the most popular person on campus. I live in Indiana but go to 1-2 games every year and can tell you the atmosphere and 'feel' are different...

    Chip: I said it last year and will say it again: Gophers basketball is in really good hands with Ben Johnson.

    I think you are correct. I am disappointed that we did not get Chatman, Holloman, or Winter to commit (eventually I think we need to get some/most? of those types to sign on to elevate our program)...but getting Christie and Evans eases my concern

    Chip: I said it last year and will say it again: Gophers basketball is in really good hands with Ben Johnson.

    I have to push back on that assertion. I think Coach Johnson did a great job of coaching last year. He inherited a flawed team, lost almost all of those players via the Transfer Portal, constructed a roster of transfers from George Washington, College of Charleston, William & Mary, New...

    Chip: I said it last year and will say it again: Gophers basketball is in really good hands with Ben Johnson.

    I agree! Last year I knew we were undermanned and had little depth. The non-conference games were amazing and I enjoyed the rest of the season (although not the results) knowing that we would show up every game and play hard. Many of those were losses, yes, but better times are coming! LOVE...

    ***OFFICIAL PURDUE AT MINNESOTA HOMECOMING IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    One of the worst (probably the worst) halves of football this team has played since the Bowling Green debacle. I am more than concerned.

    ***OFFICIAL PURDUE AT MINNESOTA HOMECOMING IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    I fear Mo is out for this game and have serious questions as to whether Potts and Williams can give us the balance we need. If we had Ky Thomas or Bucky Irving right now I would feel so much better. This team looks lost and uninspired. Defense is going to have to take the lead and that 1st...

    Post Game Thread: GOPHERS CRUSH MSU! SOUND OFF!

    Just got back from East Lansing after watching the Gophers dominate Michigan State in every aspect. Went on the road and beat a team that won 10 games last year and had high hopes for this season just 8 days ago. Defense was outstanding! Offense was inspiring! Was worried about replacing...

    Week 3 Other Games Thread

    Purdue, Northwestern, Nebraska, and Indiana all losing...and, in 1/2 the cases, to 'far lesser competition'. It's another great day to be a Gopher!

    Gophers win! Badgers and Hawkeyes lose!

    Excellent! Thanks for the response. I thought it has been far longer.

    Gophers win! Badgers and Hawkeyes lose!

    Does anyone know how long it has been since the Gophers won and the Badgers and Hawkeyes lost on the same day?

    Tyler Brown WR Commits

    I am liking this recruiting class and am hopeful that, once all of the spots are filled, that it will rank on par or better than previous classes. Thought it was interesting that several of the early commits had either Ivy League or Service Academy offers--tells me they are smart, tough, and...

    Wald: Vegas sets Gophers football 2022 win total at 6.5, is it too low?

    Went to place a bet on the over...line now at 7.5

    Taurus Samuels Commits to Gophers!!

    FWIW...I love this move! We obviously needed more backcourt help. To get a player like Samuels--a talented, smart, experienced veteran--to fill some of that void is awesome! I am really starting to like when Coach Johnson is doing with his team. Last year was a bit rough but I really...

    2022 Transfer Portal Discussion

    D***! Thanks for the update on Quinn! To answer BGA1...I'm really not sure. Walton? Henley? Carrington? Someone else? A Point Forward? I don't know but there are teams out there without a 'true' point guard. I think a roster of what we've got, what we have coming in, what we have coming...

    Thanks, Gophers!

    I would like to take some time to thank this year's Gopher team! THANKS for a lot of good memories, thanks for playing hard, defense, and together, and never giving up. Thanks for representing the University of Minnesota in a positive way! I would particularly like to thank some particular...
