Crickets……Crickets…..

The encouraging thing is the effort, it’s always there. Edey is tall, large, and slow. That’s not his fault, but it will be a hinderance at the next level, which is evident by the fact he is still playing college ball. The technical Ben took did nothing to change the outcome of the game. Purdue...

Maybe film of Kevin McHale?

Record or not, one of the major criteria in deciding BJ fate will be roster retention! If it looks like he can keep this core roster intact his record will prove irrelevant!

He has had a problem lately getting too far under the basket, making it much easier to disrupt his shot. His floor coverage is ridiculous. He picked up a loose ball in the lane 8’ from him before anyone else basically moved.

Losing Garcia was bad. But it was magnified by Hawkins deciding to start playing "hero ball"! The ball stopped moving, the clock ran down over and over, and the offense went pffff. Also, the Hawk committed an idiotic end of game foul for either the second or third game in a row? The other...

Kingerys kids, Josh and ??? Play town ball for Atwater. Josh is maybe two yrs out of high school. I saw him notch 14 k’s and beat a very good local team with 4 college players as a draftee in the town ball tourney In his senior summer. You can see Mike must have coached him, as he is as...

She could have came here and been the next Lindsay Whalen and owned the state. In Conn. she is just another good basketball player and will be just be replaced by yet another good basketball player!

The object in this game should have been to send a message! And considering the previous 3 games by the PG’s, sitting at the start of the next one also applies.

BTW, during early in Whalens tenure, she had a bunch of malcontents. One of the starters, can’t remember which one gave her the finger during a timeout, shown on tv. Not sure if Whalen benched her or suspended her, and at the end of the season the player left taking some of her friends with her...

Thank you! There are times you can afford to make a point, and times you cannot. And this was one to make a point. Someone has to tell Sanders that for every point she scores, the overall offense suffers. Yes, she can drive and score, but at her size and single handedness that can easily be...

I agree….. not because I think because she would be an upgrade, but because I think a message needs to be sent!

Spot on! This is silly. battle can’t hang on to the ball long enough to have an offense, and what’s the point of moving when Sanders has it? You lose half your 30 seconds while she dribbles with her head down, and you only get the ball if she finally can’t drive. The last 5 possessions of the...

Bud Grant seemed to do okay without jumping up and down like crazy…..

IF you started Battle, Dawson, and JOJ (who by the way isn’t even starting now), who would sit? Payne? Seriously?

There are more polished centers in college BB, and some that are physically bigger such as the guy in Purdue. But if there is one more athletic, covers more ground, or has a higher "motor" thane Payne I haven’t seen a him yet. IF the gophers were more intent on feeding him, his numbers could get...

The guy is a beast! The amount of court he covers is amazing, and he never takes a play off. It’s a completely different game with him on the floor.

I am puzzled over the BJ angst about Hawkins foul late in the game. It’s obvious it wasn’t an assigned foul, since in that case Hawkins would have grabbed the guy, not a reach in attempt at a steal. As for Carrington that was also stupid, and he was called on the carpet on the sidelines. Was it...

If only the dinosaurs had such foresigh!

All these posts could become moot, if Tennessee and that other school, win their lawsuit to allow wealthy athletic sponsors to basically hire players for their schools. That’s curtains for college athletics as we know it. I liked the good old days when Wooden and his bagman handed out the cash...
