All I can say is, it must really be fun to play against the Gophers.

Just do what I do. Put him/her on ignore. Saves time and helps my blood pressure.

I don't think anyone is questioning Whalen's basketball IQ. The question is, can she teach what she knows? There are many examples of great players failing at coaching.

"Minnesota is sitting on the biggest bonanza of high school girls basketball talent in the world." Hyperbole like this undermines your other assertions.

You say this program is about winning National Championships. Well, you fooled me. To date Lindsey has led her team to the WNIT twice (hardly an accomplishment as that only means we're in the top 100). Her overall record in the Big Ten is dismal, with only one winning season. Except for this...

As you said, that's your opinion. I'm sure Booth and Choboy aren't losing any sleep over their decisions, so maybe it's time to let this go. Beating a dead horse never looks good.

If we're not playing better by the end of next year, I'll probably transfer myself.

P. J. can't have many fans left at W. Michigan.

It might be time to bring Katie B. off the bench. (I would start Maggie instead.) As the starting point guard, she's committing too many unforced turnovers and taking too many poor shots. She apparently sees herself as the teams first option, when she's actually the 4th or 5th. I think she...

Gave up too many uncontested layups in the first half, and too much "hero" ball from multiple players when the game was on the line. KB has to realize that her job is to set up her teammates, not throw up wild shots that either get blocked or have no chance of going in. (She did play well...

In addition to a missed shot, it should count as a turnover. Shots like that have absolutely no chance of going in.

It feels like a sharp stick in the eye only if you let it. I first started following Gopher sports in the late 50's, and believe me, there have been a lot of ups and downs. It took years but I've finally reached a place where I've learned not to live and die with the decisions of young, still...

Carter Booth was First Team All-Big Ten (one of only two freshmen) and on the All-Freshman Team. I don't think that happened only on account of her height. Wenaas was here 3 years, and no one is questioning her character, so why question Booth's. They were both recruited by Hugh. He retired...

It's her life and her decision. She apparently made a mistake when she chose NC State, and I'm sure she doesn't want to make another one. Whether you like it or not probably won't enter into her thinking. And I think it's a little early to project that the Gophers will make the tournament...

I love Katie's energy and self confidence, but she needs to slow down. Too many unforced errors and questionable shot attempts. The team will play better when she cuts back on the "hero" ball.

I won't be able to do it, but if I had any self discipline, I wouldn't read any Gopher football news until the start of spring practice. Less pain and disappointment along the way. On the other hand, getting all the bad news in one dose could prove fatal.

My favorite Cal Stoll story: When Paul Giel fired Stoll, he supposedly told him that he couldn't sell him or his program any more to the fans. Stoll replied that he had never been for sale.

Thank you. I agree 100 %. I've already put BFan on ignore so I don't see his/her posts.

Abrasive personality? Where did that come from?

The day the Gophers fill their roster with "15 Emoni Bates" will be the day I walk away from Gopher basketball.
