How do you come to the conclusion that Johnson has a higher ceiling? Not really disputing it, but not sure how anyone can reasonably make that conclusion without any past history.

Well, I get what you are saying, but these are his players. He told us that everyone he recruited plays his type of basketball. That doesn't mean I expect 20 wins next year, but he shouldn't complain. He has loved (publicly) every one of these new players. Every (seemingly) new coach talks...

This is good thing. It's his team now. All the players (but one) are players he recruited here. It moves his timeline up in my opinion. If he is the kind of coach Coyle thinks he is, this is good because he can have his players playing his system from day one. Good luck coach, you got your...

Everything you need to know; except what time the game is played.......

Came here to basically say this. I think 14 is a little high by maybe a game or two, but agree with the low end around 9. Hope to God I'm wrong, but I have not heard anything from BJ regarding offense or defense that gives me confidence in his 'system'.

Gonzaga had many other pieces in place. Suggs would not have taken the Gophers to the title game. If I'm not mistaken, I believe that was the point trying to be made. Take it for what it's worth.

This is a good get. His ability to get to the rim will benefit this team. We still need shooters and a center.

While that is true to some extent, I think a lot more goes into it. Look at Liam's stats from MN last season: 2020-21 GP MIN FG% 3P% FT% REB AST BLK STL PF TO PTS 23 24.7 44.1 32.7 69.4 6.6 1.1 2.7 0.7 3.6 1.7 11.7 He averages a full block+ more per game and had more rebounds...

I was also looking forward to someone, anyone, signing. Kept refreshing and nothing happened. It's early, will be interesting to see where BJ goes with this thing.

This thread took off like a rocket!

There is a whole board dedicated to things that are not topic specific. Maybe you can stick you opinion over on that thread since it has nothing to do with Gopher football; just like this thread.

Why is this in the Gopher football thread? Post this crap on the off-topic board.

Maybe he only fishes the west side?

The difference in your comparison is that Martice and David are being looked at based on their potential and people want to see if that plays out. Gabe has had three years. One really promising year as a Freshman which gets everyone's hope up; followed by two declining years. If Martice and...

It's not like the 3-point line moved 5 feet. It was a small move. He was already shooting from those types of spots before it moved. Your statement that Gabe can shoot, I think is just wrong. Maybe it was style of play, but shooters shoot. The really good ones move to open spots without the...

I think his (Fox) style of play translates. His aggressiveness taking the ball to the hoop is something we currently lack. Will draw fouls and collapsing defenders which will provide kick-out opportunities for potential shooters.

I like Ilhnen, but Fox is more polished. No reason both can't be here.

Definitely positions of need. Go get em'.

I hope so. He shot 24.5% from 3-point last year. Hard to be worse. Gabe seems like a great kid, but the last two years he has been a detriment on the offensive side of the ball. The stats show that. If he is here, I hope he is shit tons better than he has been.

I don't think anything I wrote disagrees with what you just said. I said most of them. You told me that 10-15 (10+) are really good. How many players are there in the state? What did I say that is different than what you are saying? Same thing I said basically. I also said that he would do...
