This I think is the point. I realize lots (besides me) watch games over multiple conferences, and see this is a pretty deep roster. To me it's really impressive to have a guy like Ihnen come off the bench. His height/length along with Fox. In Fox's case, maybe a bit more hyper, and all his...

Grant McCasland showing (so far) he can make the jump from North Texas as he has Texas Tech giving Texas all they can handle in Austin….

No doubt Wisconsin looks good. Not sure how folks spin it otherwise. A lot of options on that roster.

Always looking to learn and this would be a surprise given Shaka’s history. Please share more detail…

Thanks for your regular updates on this. It's ambitious to do this so early in the season. Look at this past Sunday afternoon for instance. Colorado really took Miami apart on a neutral court. Sometimes just the eye test may be the way to go, and see if it materializes in late Feb, early March...

Jeepers. . .Kevin Lynch? Reggie ok.

CSU beats Huskies in Vegas. Good game. No matter the questions on why didn't Gophers want/recruit this player or that player, it's nice to see a team have an offensive flow/identity and chemistry. My hope is Gophers have been holding back for what comes ahead. They clearly have some size. Can...

That Avery Johnson has some serious speed, and Chris Klieman is a heck of a coach. Gotta respect what K State has built. I kind of thought in '19 year, Gophers had a similar look. Hopefully they get it back.

I thought about this same thing. In TCU's case, QB play was a huge issue, similar to the Gophers. And interesting that SMU, where Dykes bolted for TCU, just extended Rhett Lashlee after a really good year. Stating the obvious, you cannot win without a quality QB.

Cameron Ward to Washington State via Incarnate Word. He is clearly the exception, but they are out there.

Nebraska is much better than a year ago. They picked up Rienk Mast who has added some muscle, and keeping Tominaga helped. Not sure it's much if at all advantage Gophers but hopefully we see significant improvement over last night's game. First thing to fix is offensive flow, which was difficult...

Marcus Williams is another example. He was so good as a freshman at Wyoming, xferred to Texas A&M where it didn't work out. Now he surfaces w/ San Francisco and is putting up good numbers again. He'd absolutely be an upgrade to the guards the Gophers have on the floor this year. Gophers are not...

True there continues to be a lot of wealth in the DFW area based on oil/gas industry, but there is much more diverse overall growth and multi-industry (wealth). It's really nuts just how many relatively young wealthy individuals there are in the Dallas area alone, in SMU's back yard. The current...

No one expects Ihnen to contribute? For sure, it's been a tough road for him, but if Fox is worth mentioning, then why not Ihnen at 6'10" (?). It'd be a heck of a welcome surprise if he and Fox both show up healthy.

Why is this such a problem. . .wanting their name on a building or room. . .? I can't believe I'm the only one who's been to many different athletic events at a variety of schools, some as highly regarded or more than U of M. I've seen facilities with names attached to the stadium, end zone...

Not sure if you're serious or not, but he was a solid player and if healthy will be a nice addition for wherever he lands.

Maybe it’s more about attracting the fan interest (potential major donors) who are a notch or two below that. There are 16? Fortune 500 HQ’s in MN. Something doesn't quite click, which is why …all the more respect for what PJ Fleck has accomplished. Need someone to sell the hoops program….

Interesting add’l info…… https://nypost.com/2023/03/19/rick-pitino-offered-job-to-be-next-st-johns-head-coach/

Love the Gophers but this could be a more well informed post (to be generous). “Any school in the south…” among the other ridiculous points. Yes the Gophers should be bring in top level talent…..not leftovers. If the coach cant seem to do it amd retain/develop them, then we will likely see a...
