    B1G Game 13: Gophers visit Rutgers (2-13-24)

    Coach P, you seem to know how to coach, but you've got to reel in your team and get their heads on straight. As a former point guard, teach Battle how to be a floor general (she did dish out a great amount of assists tonight) and to abandon reckless drives to the hoop. She just hasn't...

    Gopher WBB "Fans" ....Are you serious?

    I'll draw a connection to our favorite Lady Gophers era. I believe it loosely applies. In 2004 Lindsay Whalen broke her hand with about 5/6 games left in the BIG10 season. Many thought that would derail the season - and we did indeed lose a couple late games that we most likely would have won...

    B1G Game 11: Gophers Visit Michigan State (2-5-24)

    Holloway and Czinano are D1. Time will tell if they are worthy of starting in the BIG or other Power 5 conferences. Holloway definitely a bigger upside in athleticism. But D1 worthy isn't in question.

    Coach Dawn Plitzuweit's First Season

    This year is tougher to assess with Braun's injury. A very young team with a short bench would find struggles after losing any starter, let alone their primary scorer. Next year should be interesting as experience and depth both improve. Grocholski and Holloway will both see a jump...

    B1G Game 11: Gophers Visit Michigan State (2-5-24)

    Our top 8 (including Braun) are all D1. Without a doubt. Some have some development yet to become elite D1 performers. But as many have mentioned, they are young. Also as some have mentioned, the issue is depth and some of the roster are lower caliber project recruits that were needed to...

    Women's BB NIL

    Isn't the current NIL basically wild west rules for boosters. Couldn't any one of us could reach out to a player or recruit and say me or my business will give you $50K to play for the gophers this year? Just like John Ruiz does for the Univ of Miami?

    B1G Game 8: Gophers Visit Wisconsin (1-23-24)

    Terrible. Enjoy the WNIT. Wonder how many good recruits just lost interest. Fucking disgusting.

    B1G Game 8: Gophers Visit Wisconsin (1-23-24)

    Uninspired garbage. About to turn this off midway through the 3rd.

    B1G Game 8: Gophers Visit Wisconsin (1-23-24)

    They need to pull their heads out and play. This would be an unforgiveable loss. You want to watch yourself get left out of the NCAA tourney and weep about what could have been.. then keep this up and lose this game. The Gophs have to beat the cellar teams if they want in.

    B1G Game 6: Gophers Visit Indiana (1-17-24)

    Rose Micheaux's 11 rebounds (7 offensive) had a lot to do with that. Hopefully Nia and the rest of the team's improved rebounding can reproduce that advantage. And for God's sake put those offensive boards up and in....

    B1G Game 3: Gophers Host Maryland (1-3-24)

    Really do love Battle, but she was a liability tonight.

    B1G Game 3: Gophers Host Maryland (1-3-24)

    Damn it. We're gonna lose by as much as we did to Iowa. Turnovers, missed layups and "lays it up and in" by Maryland every other play.

    BIG Game 2: Gophers Visit Iowa (12-30-23)

    We definitely don't want to have to use our bench for extensive minutes - so I understand being careful not to foul. But that's what gave them so many easy inside baskets. Going to have to abandon that in the 2nd half. And Hart will have to play sparingly. She looks exhausted already and...

    BIG Game 2: Gophers Visit Iowa (12-30-23)

    Have to hit open shots and rebound. That isn't Iowa outplaying us, that is just poor fundamentals. Need to improve both through the final 3 quarters.

    2024 NCAA Women's Basketball Tournament - News, Updates

    She seems pretty entrenched in the advanced medical studies program at UA. Don't see her leaving the school. Just basketball. Good for her in that regard. Too many athletes are 99% sport 1% education. NIL makes this disparity even worse.

    Game 11: Gophers Host Grambling (12-13-23)

    Assist/TO 19:8 for the starters.

    Game 11: Gophers Host Grambling (12-13-23)

    And 7 turnovers in a half seems a bit high against a lower tier team like Grambling. Maybe Coach P is experimenting with a faster paced play. In which case this is probably the right game to do it.

    Game 11: Gophers Host Grambling (12-13-23)

    Doesn't seem like as much of a defensive focus. We're just outscoring them.

    Game 1: Gophers Host LIU (11-8-23)

    This is what I was hoping. That with a insurmountable lead Coach P could play with different lineup mixes, plays and strategies in the second half without any risk. So some of the stats won't be as sexy, but the team might have learned a few things.
