    2024 MN High School Basketball State Tournaments

    To watch the NIT, NCAA, Goghers wine, and men, and the high school tourney I now need BTN, 5 different ESPN channels, NSPN, Peacock, and bIG+. This doesn’t allow for the fact that I think I need Hulu or something that stream ESPNU. It’s simply insane! I am not even counting CBS, Ch45, and Truetv.

    Do you want Ben back for a fourth year?

    To answer your question: Nothing will make most happy. As the old saying goes: If it ain’t one thing it’s the other!

    Do you want Ben back for a fourth year?

    Lot depends on where they go? Turning pro? Don’t blame them, although the best either can hope for now is G league or Europe? Do t see either ready for NBA currently.

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT BUTLER NIT FIRST ROUND IN-GAME POST-SEASON BASKETBALL(!!!) THREAD!!!***

    I hope these all aren’t on + & U. I don’t get either one. JHC, you need 6 streaming services to watch games now.

    The Athletic: NBA Mock Draft (#28. Cam Christie, Minnesota to Utah)

    I like him, but if the D in 3&D stands for defense?, then he needs a lot of work.

    Do you want Ben back for a fourth year?

    Nothing has ruined watching and discussing sports more than analytics! It’s completely ruined MLB. Watching someone strike out 30-40% of the time is not entertaining. Watching great starting pitchers go 5 innings is not entertaining. Watching players swing from the heels with two strikes, like a...

    There is something to be said for persistence. 👍🏻

    Fire Kent State Coach?

    Well I was just using the same criteria as we do on GH. It’s always the coaches fault I thought?

    Fire Kent State Coach?

    My bad! Mistake costs Kent State the NCAA tournament in ‘horrible, tough’ loss Cindy Boren Kent State's Julius Rollins immediately realized his mistake in the game against Akron. (Phil Long/AP) Julius Rollins’s mistake, one of those brain freeze moments, came at the worst possible moment, with...

    Fire Kent State Coach?

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2024/03/17/kent-state-horrible-tough-mistake/ Obviously the result of poor coaching from what I can see!

    State Tournament 2024

    She was easily in my top 5 in the tourney, and might end up better than some of the other ones on my list. I thought the shooting was phenomenal in the tournament, and the passing was awful. That said, some of the crazy heater skelter play will not translate to the college level.

    Do you want Ben back for a fourth year?

    Love the delusional "If Ben returns" comments. There hasn’t been any indication by Coyle or any media types that he is on the way out. You can’t start over constantly and try and rebuild relationships all the time. Hoiberg struggled at NE for several years, as did some other league coaches...

    B1G Tourney Game 1: Gophers Versus Rutgers (2-6-24)

    Oh please lord NO to this! Analytics made MLB so unwatchable they had to change rules in place since the beginning of the game, to try and make it watchable again. And they still haven’t completely fixed it. Nothing will convince me that someone who strikes out 35% of the time is a good hitter...

    Ben Johnson is a Disaster

    It’s a minor point but someone above in the thicket of responses on this post mentioned ceiling. I think Carrington has not yet come close to reaching his. He is a physical defending guard who came out of high school with a good 3 ball reputation. Last year that did not show up, but it did this...

    Ben Johnson is a Disaster

    It’s still hard to decide if a coach can’t keep players, or can’t outbid for them, without some numbers. Cousins just left, and the numbers give us some insight into the decision by the Vikings to leave him skate. But if some of our players leave, no one knows if the U’s NIL was outbid, or if...

    Former Gopher coach Dan Monson fired by Long Beach State

    It always seemed the NCAA was overly tough on MN. Big name school, without the rabid fan following of NE, IA, WI etc. And not the national exposure of marquee schools. Michael Thompson got the severely punished for selling a couple tickets, while UCLA handed out straight cash homey, and Pitino...

    Ben Johnson is a Disaster

    How does one find out what NIL is being handed out to players, here and elsewhere? If that info is not available, how does one assess a coaches ability to recruit? I am not a PJ fan, but even I know that if we lost that running back to Oregon due to NIL coin, and our basketball to recruit to...
