Now you can extend your trip!

On the general topic of "What happened to this board?" I think the Richard Pitino era was defined mainly by overwhelming optimism going into the "next year." This forum represented that overall optimistic sentiment (even though we never accomplished much). We were always one player away from...

What? :ROFLMAO: I mean, I consider myself optimistic, but common, haha.

We could get a commitment from Nikola Jokic, and GWG would be disappointed in Ben's roster construction and over-emphasis on length.

It honestly looked like it was physically painful for Cooper to sprint. Could we actually get some transition buckets this year? Also of note, every mid-major we played last year seemingly had a small shifty PG that absolutely burned us and had their way with our slow-footed guards. It feels...

These were the days. Buy a left-field general admission ticket for a couple of bucks, get there a few hours early for a front-row seat to BP/the game, and marvel at that Denny Hocking "baggy" power. The gale-force winds were a nice touch when exiting the dome after another Twins "L." Take me back!

This is just pathetic. Dropping out of the Vegas event for Ball State and USC-Upstate? Didn't we learn anything from last year? A historically weak schedule still only led to two big ten wins. In the era of advanced statistics and algorithms, playing good teams tough on a neutral court is...

Good thing they already have a PG transfer commit!:ROFLMAO:

Ramberg will absolutely crush the men's league pick-up scene after his collegiate days are over. In all seriousness, while it was disappointing that he had to play a role last year due to our lack of depth, he was the only player who consistently moved without the ball. He has a knack for...

The tweet confused me. I read it as he was a freshman this year. He was a sophomore on a tournament team in 2022-2023, and his stats are nearly identical to his freshman year, although his fg% (especially three pt%) improved considerably this year. He averaged four turnovers a game which is a...

I noticed he was a higher-volume shooter than Battle, had a slightly worse shooting %, and averaged another turnover per game. I would be intrigued to see him playing 20-25 minutes per game, assuming he can defend. He has doubled his scoring average every year (but obv, a lot of that has come...

I can already hear Grimm, "Mitchell to Mitchell for 3!"

I learned a new word today. Why was this word in your auto-correct? :ROFLMAO:

And now Storr will decommit because he is unimpressed with the supporting guard cast and would prefer to play on a team positioned for a deep tourney run.

Spot on!

I bet it's SUPER easy to recruit someone to play 4-8 minutes a game, but only if the three guys in front of him are in foul trouble. We have five scholarships. Relax. We only ever needed depth at the #5 to eat up some fouls and grab a rebound.

Nice! We got our center depth piece. I just watched an interview, and it looks like he started his career at Idaho playing hoops (two years), then transferred to Washington St. to focus on football. Last year the W. St. basketball team had injury issues, and he stepped in to provide practice...

I think if he found a way to make some money while keeping his college career alive, good for him! It was not a good year for him, and I think it might be nice to get a change of scenery. I'm happy for him and hold no ill will, even if he does stay in the conference. I don't think we will find...

You convinced me. I'm sold. Let's get him

Playing the devil's advocate here... Is there a chance Ben doesn't want to go down this road? Dealing with the players' parents is probably hard enough, but can you imagine a player's parent who has an office down the hall from you that is also getting paid a lot of money to coach basketball...
