    Ben Is the Coach - We Need Some Patience

    So....to summarize: we don't have very good basketball players.

    Is It Realistic to Move On From Johnson This Year?

    There is no "Magic Johnson" point guard walking into the Gopher hoops future. And as many have pointed out that our best freshman, Payne, should start....our coach disagrees. Not putting any faith in that guy recruiting a clueless point guard to help right the ship and sail us to the promised land.

    I said I'd quit following college sports as soon as we lose a key player via transfer

    I've actually enjoyed reading Spaulding's short zingers this year far more than any Gophers basketball games. Far more entertaining! I just skip the games and read the meltdowns. Bonus for doing so; I have saved tons on mental/emotional therapy fees!

    Time to add Grand Canyon to your CBB bucket list

    For those who clearly are unfamiliar with GCU and their campus... GCU has a campus that is absolutely gorgeous. The campus is walled off from the immediately surrounding area because it is in a tough area of Phoenix. The place that was referenced to eat outside prior to the game is within the...

    Greder: .100 BT winning percentage currently sits as the second-worst winning percentage in program history.

    The problem is that the lake is smooth as glass this year. And the ocean is 2000 miles away.

    What does "play to win" look like in a game - how is it different than "playing not to lose?"

    It is playing, not to lose a chance for a field goal attempt once you are in range rather than calling aggressive plays to score a touchdown. It is running up the middle on first and second down (and often even on 3rd down) with a slim lead when the defense is loading the box and your chance to...

    2022-2023 Other Bowl Games Thread

    If you saw the end of the Arkansas vs. Kansas game there was a targeting call at the end that gave Kansas another opportunity. The NCAA then came out the next day and said it shouldn't have been called targeting. It was clearly targeting per their rule so I was shocked they would say that the...

    Targeting...didn't have the guts to call it.

    2022-2023 Other Bowl Games Thread

    Watching the Tenn vs Clemson Orange Bowl and the SEC commercial is telling me that, "it just means more!" But, a 1-4 bowl record so far suggests..."it doesn't."

    Gophers now hold the second longest active bowl win streak in FBS

    Agreed. Just feel we should have had more of those type of opportunities.

    Gophers now hold the second longest active bowl win streak in FBS

    The unwritten part of this is due to the fact the Gophers are frequently passed over for better bowls. There is no doubt though, Fleck is great at game planning with extra time to prepare.

    UPDATE: Jasmine Powell Leaves Team: Transfers to Tennessee

    Powell was "coached up", but the player has to be able and willing to take the coaching and put it into action. Powell didn't do that at Minnesota and she isn't doing it at Tennessee, hence why she is seeing her playing time/role decrease.

    2022 in Review

    I know we have discussed the ups and downs of the season throughout the year, but I keep looking back over the whole season and wanted to get posters opinions/takes. Mine is probably too long winded, but here goes...consider yourself warned. Great start to the season...obviously. I have no...

    “Best two should play for the title” is stupid

    Agreed. I never understood the benefit to the conference of this model...besides the obvious...$$.
