Ihnen was the only player to stick it out through the coaching change, has gutted out a two-year rehab, and this is the conclusion you draw from 12 minutes of basketball in his first game back since 2020? Get a grip.

You nailed it. I walked away with optimism. We have two very capable PGs who push the ball. It was enjoyable watching Hawkins and Mitchell out on the court together. It felt like an entirely different system from what we watched the last two years. The offense was fast and crisp, with few...

When I had mono in college, that took me entirely out of commission for a month, and I lost about 25 pounds. It sounds like he's had it for a while, so he should be on the upswing soon.

The shots he was making were borderline absurd. People around me were just laughing. Props to him; he put on a show! So many of the shots, you literally could not play better defense without fouling. I've never seen anything like it.

The winters are far too long for futile gopher basketball...

As underwhelming as the CBJ has been, to his credit, he has taken care of business against inferior opponents. The wins haven't always been pretty (quite frankly, most have been ugly), but they tend to escape with the win.

Probably, and hopefully!

I wasn't too concerned initially. I think I assumed (bad idea, I know) it was Ben experimenting with line-ups and playing guys who won't see the floor much but trying to figure out his #7-#11 rotation guys. I mentioned in a previous post that it's damn near impossible to lose by 40 points. I...

Tough, but fair. It's "prove it" time for this staff.

The score of the CSU/MN scrimmage is so egregious there had to have been extenuating circumstances at play. I'd be far more concerned if it were an 18 or 22-point loss with intel that we were trying to win and played our contributors most minutes. But 38 points? Cleary essential guys weren't...

You're not far off. I'm hearing the entire team had the flu, except Kadyn Betts. He took CSU on one v five and still scored 49 points.

For those who saw Fox play, what position do you envision him guarding? I can't picture him guarding a Big Ten center, but maybe he's bigger and more athletic than I am giving him credit for.

Every video I see of Gopher basketball practice, they are literally playing against the air. Guys are hitting open shots, throwing down vicious dunks, and cheering emphatically with every made bucket. I want so badly for Parker to have a bounce-back year. He deserves it more than anyone...

I read yes. The gifted lease payment is considered income for tax purposes.

Great news! Al was a phenomenal point guard; I look forward to his insights!

Has Athan made a good throw this year anytime he’s left the pocket?

I wasn't aware of this. Even if we got spanked, I would have loved a shot at Dutcher's SDSU as a measuring stick against the CBB elite. I would have definitely traveled to this one.

Every team is dealing with the transfer portal. We're not the only program in the nation with new faces coming in and many unanswered questions about who the core nucleus will be. God forbid we test line-up combinations against good competition. Or even against mediocre programs. The fact...

You're probably correct—it was just my general opinion on what's acceptable. The Big Ten Tourney results will (and should) also factor into the final decision.

I've been as big of a CBJ supporter as anyone on this site. However, he needs to make hay this year. There are no more excuses. This is Year 3, and we have a complete roster that includes high-upside underclassmen, experienced upperclassmen transfers, and multiple players who have been in the...
