    Seth Davis: Ben Johnson has done an incredible job with this team. One of the elite coaches in one of the toughest jobs in America.

    Complete nonsense. To think that we can't do any better than 0 NCAA tournament appearances in 4 years, when every other non-sanctioned Gopher coach has done that within the same timeframe, is ridiculous. So we just give up then, and never care if we make another NCAA tournament again? They've...

    You didn't answer my question. Why does Ben deserve another year at Minnesota? Nebraska, Penn St, Rutgers, and Northwestern are all worse jobs, and there's no reason they can't compete with Iowa and Wisconsin.

    Seth Davis: Ben Johnson has done an incredible job with this team. One of the elite coaches in one of the toughest jobs in America.

    Minnesota basketball being one of the worst jobs in the country is completely made up because Ben has been such a disaster. There are several worse jobs just in the B1G, not to mention that any B1G job is better than 80% of the other D1 college head coaching jobs available. Has the program been...

    Seth Davis: Ben Johnson has done an incredible job with this team. One of the elite coaches in one of the toughest jobs in America.

    I don't believe this for a second. You think Coyle and the U are really enjoying the lost revenue and apathy that has been created with the basketball program? The media push is the same media push that said the Gophers had to hire a minority candidate in the first place. It's as DEI driven now...

    Craig Smith

    Too bad the U administration didn't allow Coyle to interview Dutcher 4 years ago or he may have ended up here. Now Dutcher is no longer an option.

    Five Guys On A Shortlist: If the U Decides Change Is Needed, Aim High & Don't Be Cheap With That Big Ten Cash

    McDermott just signed a 5 year extension last year, making him one of the highest paid coaches in the Big East. Creighton also has significantly more NIL money to spend than the Gophers do. He's not even a remotely realistic candidate for the job.

    At least Ben doesn't have to re-decorate the locker room today

    Ben Johnson Post-Game Following Northwestern Loss

    A real coach isn't going to give Asuma a huge chunk of money. They need a lot more than him next year.

    Craig Smith

    I really wanted Smith 4 years ago, but the biggest question with him was always if he could recruit at a high enough level to win in a P4 conference. For now, that answer is no. He had a lot of success at his other stops due to finding under the radar high school and international players, and...

    Someone needs to get through to Ant quickly. I thought Monday night would have been a wake up call for him, but apparently it wasn’t. Some of this is on Finch, and some of it is on the team not having a true leader, like Slo Mo was the last 2 seasons.

    Wow - Marcus: Johnson is arguably at a point in his tenure when he might also need for people to be patient with him.

    Sam Mitchell wasn't actually a candidate for the job. He just told all of the local media that he should be.

    Muss knew he was joining the B1G when he signed the contract. This is a BJ level excuse.

    Dutchers buyout is now 10.2 million. 4 years ago it was 1 million for the Gophers. That ship has sailed.

    SGA is a really good player, but he constantly flops. When SGA tried to tie it with a last second 3 in OT last night, he couldn't even do that straight up. He tried to foul bait as he shot it. That style of play will always keep him from being a true superstar to me.

    He's a 20 year old rookie with a ton of talent. It takes a few years to become consistent.

    He would get another scholarship, just nowhere near a B1G level one.

    Neal: Moving forward with Ben Johnson is the only option for Gophers men’s basketball

    He’s not. The way he recruits and schedules also comes across as lazy. There’s a reason he’s the worst coach bball coach in Gophers history.
