    Gopher Potential Portal Pursuits

    Good news, bad news, indifferent thoughts. According to the statistical metrics run by Torvik RosterCast, with addn's of Frank Mitchell and Brennan Rigsby, MN has the current #68 strongest roster in college bb. Shockingly, if MN adds Lu'Cye Patterson alone, MN roster improves to #55 which is a...

    Gopher Potential Portal Pursuits

    I know CBJ has stated that he has to take those who accept his offer, but I'm holding out for Fitzmorris (Sr. 6'11 Stonybrook), or Christian Reeves (So. 7'1" Dook) as best rotational pieces with Mitchell. Neither can demand excessive NIL. It seems that commits come quickly after visits, so...

    College Basketball Transfer Portal Thread - 2024

    Isaiah Gray (Cornell) to Akron Luke O'Brien (Colorado) to Georgia Tech I can only imagine MN knew this and has been hosting others. Would love to see the huge board in the MN "war room" of portal entrants and possible transfers, agents to contact, phone numbers, IG accounts. Would be crazy.

    No need to panic! Yet.

    The current best combination additions would be Ken Evans (Jackson St. Sr.) and Keenan Fitzmorris (Stonybrook, 7' Sr.) because according to analytics MNs AdjOE would be 114.6, and AdjDE 98.5--making MN the #43 best roster in NCAA bb.

    No need to panic! Yet.

    Looking into analytics here, regarding roster losses and additions. Minnesota finished this past season with an AdjOffEff rating of 113.8, and an AdjDefEff rating 103.1 Using Torvik's ("Sausagemaker") RosterCast which uses player's analytics throughout college careers creating potential...

    Gopher Potential Portal Pursuits

    If Tyson can pledge millions in NIL to Arkansas, FedEx $25M to Memphis, Berkshire-Hathaway money at Nebraska, why are there no large companies in Mnpls that can support the UofM? General Mills, Target, Hormel, Xcel, Land-0-Lakes, USBancorp, 3M, BestBuy, United Health? FFS, why is it so...

    How will we do with our portal additions?

    OK, Frankie Mitchell is an even get with Hugley who's off the board. Now get Gray, O'Brien, Fitzmorris and we'll be Big Ten top tier!

    Frank Mitchell commits

    If Keenan Fitzmorris doesn’t pan out, do we entertain a repentant Dennis Evans?

    Frank Mitchell commits

    If Carrington doesn't come back, then all my efforts go toward Luke O'Brien (Colorado).

    Frank Mitchell commits

    I’d take Isaiah Gray (Cornell), Keenan Fitzmorris 7'/260(Stan/SB) and Carrington coming back. Boom. I prefer physical ball handlers/drivers/slashers like Gray/Carrington at the expense of spot shooters from 3. With Garcia, Hawkins, Christie, MMitchell we would be fine on the perimeter. At...

    How will we do with our portal additions?

    Thx. That roster as seen would be seriously Big Ten ready and a step up. A selling point in itself. Fitzmorris looks better than Liam Robbins due to his ability to shoot, rebound, and use both hands, but runs the floor similarly. Gray is a physical tough rim attacker we need, and with his...

    How will we do with our portal additions?

    Ok time to make a list of “best options” that are somewhat realistic taken from MN list of contacts. After watching them play all year (O'Brien, Hugley) and highlight tapes (Gray, Fitzmorris) here is my ideal roster with enough bulk at all positions, and conceivable rotations: Hawkins PG...
