    Jaylen Crocker-Johnson to MN!

    For those confused by the tweet, his freshman year was at Little Rock and he transferred to CSU for last season. Nice to see him become a 3PT threat, shooting 35% on 4 attempts per game last season.

    2025 Transfer Portal Watch

    He went from shooting 47% (43% 3PT) his sophomore year in 19 minutes per game...to shooting 37% (33% 3PT) this year in 23 minutes per game. I wonder what caused the drop. He did improve his FT% from 80 to 85%.

    Jefferson is Gone

    I’m curious what his handle is on the Hole. He pretends to be an insider but I think he just subscribes to Gophers Illustrated and makes lots of predictions that he pretend are inside info.

    Isaac Asuma is staying HOME!

    I agree on one level that if you are bad at shooting threes, you should shoot fewer of them. However, CBJ also assembled this roster and implemented this offense. I am looking forward to Niko’s offense and roster construction.

    Isaac Asuma is staying HOME!

    I just looked up FT% and we were 337th (at 66.4%), Colorado State was 26th (at 77.5%). Also notable was 3PT shooting rate, CSU shot the 68th most on the season (855 attempts at 36.3%) and we were at 295th (649 attempts at 32.2%).

    I imagine they have a really nice buyout fund now, huh?

    Did hiring Niko move the donor needle? Some insight from DTA

    This has been my position for some time. It’s not that the U administration supported him so poorly, he was either unwilling or unable to fundraise and build excitement for his program. Semi related point: I have taught at a couple of the Breck/Blake style schools in the country and the Head of...

    Kyan Evans

    I'm pretty sure bruster is the only person saying that. The consensus on the Hole and on Twitter is that he would be nice to bring along if possible.

    Former Gophers in Tourney

    Pitino also had Kevin Dorsey get in trouble, and Jarvis Johnson never play. Coffey season ending injury. He seemed to gamble on character and was a bit snake bitten by injury.

    Former Gophers in Tourney

    I just discovered Dain Dainja is playing for Memphis against our Colorado State Rams tomorrow. He averaged an impressive 14 points/7 rebounds on 62% shooting this year.

    Richard Pitino on KFAN

    I was comparing Tim Brewster and Johnson.

    Richard Pitino on KFAN

    Some interesting parallels/contrasts. Neither had ever been a head coach. Brewster was a huckster who had no ties to Minnesota and people tired of his hype and used car sales personality. Ben had plenty of ties to the state but didn’t seem interested or able to sell the program.

    The Case for Niko (aka Niko’s Case)

    I'm no expert on Dave Thorson but my early 2000's Minnehaha teams made a habit of losing to De La Salle, and yes they had excellent defense.

    The Case for Niko (aka Niko’s Case)

    This is where I'm at as well. Let Niko choose his own staff. Just because Thorson was on staff doesn't mean he was utilized well.
