    Reality

    This. If you compared our starting five to Michigan’s position-by-position, Carr is the only one that gets the check-mark in the MN column. Simple as that. Hard to win when you are significantly out-talented. With that said, the margin of victory was ridiculous, and is evidence of poor...

    ***OFFICIAL - REAL U OF M (GOPHERS) @ FAUX U OF M (WOLVERINES) - GAME THREAD!!!***

    I think this game just exposed the fact that the skill level of our players after Carr and Robbins is just not anywhere near the level of a top-ten team. Shooting, ball-handling, passing-not even close. We still have a nice team, and probably a top-25 team. We have few guys that can...

    Fall Scrimmage Snippets

    I would love to see that, too. However, is it just me, or does he seem too big and lacking quickness to effectively play receiver? He seems built more like a receiving tight end (Irv Smith type) to me.

    Please keep Christ out of the conversation. That offends some of us. Thanks.

    Carter Coughlin was among the protesters on the highway at the time of the semi-truck incident

    Our friend knows the driver and told us he absolutely did not intend to hurt anyone. He was on his way home after a trip. His wife is pregnant with their first child, and now they are getting death threats. So sad. While I can sure understand the rush to judgement (I made the same...

    Analysis: Four-star Illinois QB/WR Sam Jackson commits to the Gophers

    Wow. I hope they give him a shot at QB. If he can eventually make reads and throw accurately, can you imagine how dynamic he could be?

    Drew Peterson commits to Gophers!

    That he was “second fiddle” makes me pull for him all the more to succeed. Hope he works his butt off and becomes a nice player for us.

    All Things Kerwin Walton Recruitment Thread (Class of 2020)

    This. By all accounts, Walton sounds like a good kid. Too bad he fell for old Roy’s used car sales pitch to play for Scum U. Yes, there are many advantages they have over us. Doesn’t change the amount of slime and scum at that program.

    Drew Peterson commits to Gophers!

    Very nice “consolation prize” after losing out on Walton. In fact, as much as I wanted Walton, I feel sort of a “good riddance” to him now, as ultimately he rejected our team to play for Cheater University. I’ve always hated Duke and now UNC is right up there with Puke. Walton dropped way...

    All Things Class of 2020 Recruiting Thread

    Better recruiters, absolutely yes. Better coaches? Sometimes yes, sometimes no. There are great coaches at all levels of the game (including high school), but not all coaches of winning D1 programs are necessarily great coaches. The winners are mostly great salesmen who can convince great...

    Matt Haarms transferring from Purdue

    Hmmm. Jesus instructed “Do not be drunk with wine, for that is dissipation.” So drinking wine was fine, but getting drunk was not. Just some facts to consider-not that it really matters to this light-hearted discussion.

    Chip: When the games come back, will you be there?

    I’ll be there, as I’m not yet in one of the high risk categories. Increasingly, evidence is pointing to a death rate of closer to the flu. Another antibody study released today conducted by USC researchers estimates up to 55x more in the LA area have had the virus than the official case...

    Wow. If a miracle happens and we sign Walton, that ranking would be crazy.

    Your all-time favorite Gopher basketball player

    Wow, so tough! I would have to say Trent Tucker because it was such a thing of beauty to watch him shoot and he was a great guy to cheer for to boot.

    STrib: Potential starting lineup for the Gophers men's basketball team in 2020-21

    I’m certainly not arguing that the minutes should have gone to Demir. I think Ihnen should have gotten even more of Demir’s minutes. I still say, at minimum, Omersa has to greatly improve his free throw shooting to see many minutes.

    Ryan James 247: How does four star Jamal Mashburn Jr. fit into Gopher lineup?

    Very excited about this kid. I’ve also heard he already has the strength to play right away.

    STrib: Potential starting lineup for the Gophers men's basketball team in 2020-21

    Unless Tre greatly improves his shooting and finishing, I would not start him. Too much of an offensive liability last year.

    STrib: Potential starting lineup for the Gophers men's basketball team in 2020-21

    One simple reason. He can’t shoot the ball. This team lost several games last year due to poor shooting alone. Omersa was the king of clank. I’m ok with a PF guy like him if he can at least be close to average from the free-throw line. I believe he was under 30%. That is in rare bad...

    Willis to Grad Transfer from Minnesota

    This could very well be the case. I hope you are right. If so, he can play an important backup role on the team.
