When your analysis puts you on the same side as Souhan, it's best to start reconsidering.

Remember it well. 90-91 Iowa came to town (ranked 22), Gophers, ended up finishing 5-13 in the B1G. The Barn was packed and it was so loud my ears were ringing for ~15 minutes after leaving the building. Gophers upset Iowa, big thing in the papers around that time was people moaning about...

So Mankato should be in the B1G and U of M should go to which conference?

How many games do you honestly see us winning in the B1G?

I have a sneaky suspicion that a lot of teams are going to shoot really well against us this year.

Hate to tell you, but the freshmen will transfer out.

Ridiculous excuses. Tell me why Wisconsin can be successful and Minnesota can't, it all has to do with things that are completely in control of those who run the program. It's not like when Wisconsin turned things around they were sub Tropical and a dominant program, they were far worse than...

We are far worse than all those teams you listed, its not even close, that is how far we have fallen. Northwestern just went into East Lansing and won by 7, Nebraska just beat Creighton by 10 pts (ranked #7), Rutgers just stomped Indiana (ranked #10) our best win is CA Baptist by 1 point. I...

The problem with this approach is you can sell hope for only so long. You can get kids to overlook a year or two as transitional, but after that you are what you are. When you keep finishing in last place, good players do not want to join the nightmare, and that's when your HS pipe line ends...

I am having a hard time seeing a B1G game they will win. I am sure they will end up catching lightning in a bottle at some point and win one, but this looks like the worst team I have seen in all my years of watching Minnesota basketball.

Let's ask a question that can actually fit in a response on this site: What is right about this team?

Pedulla, we were finalists in his recruitment, now he is lighting us up for 17 on 8 for 11 shooting.

Exactly. They could have closed out the game in reg if they would have fed the ball to PP as a first option rather than keep jacking up low percentage threes.

Looks like they were trying to get his conditioning in all in one game

Actually I was going to write happy letters and organize a celebration in the below freezing temperatures as we rejoice at the likelihood of being the worst team in the B1G two years running. We have gone from dreaming of getting in the tournament, to now hoping we will rank in the top 200. I...

Serious? Rankings have Cal Baptist at 176 and Nebraska at 138, you wouldn't be that worried if we get beat by a team ranked 38 spots below the worst team in the Big Ten? I guess you are all in on Minnesota is by far the worst team in the B1G, and ok with it.

The biggest problems for this team and why they are bad is rebounding, defense and free throws. These are mentality issues. Battle isn't going to fix these, the coaches need to fix these.

Unfortunately its correct. I am seriously wondering what the season record is for giving up offensive rebounds for a team, I think this group may attain that record. I can't imagine what is going to happen to them in the B1G; MSU may get 35 offensive rebounds on them unless they make most of...

They are going to blow away the offensive rebound estimate of 14

Garcia may have better luck pressing charges with the arena police than getting the refs making a call.
