    Dawson Garcia returning

    G league here, but he could make good money playing overseas if that's what he wants.

    The Case for Niko (aka Niko’s Case)

    And I'm surprised no music fans (Ope3?) caught the title of this thread.

    The Case for Niko (aka Niko’s Case)

    Look at it this way. How would his current CSU team fare in the B1G. Pretty well I think.

    Love this. Got to see JD open for the Mavericks Christmas show at the Ryman in Nashville!

    Big ten tourney crowd

    I've watched quite a few tourney games this year from different conferences, and attendance seems awful across the board, it's not just the B1G.

    Who will make the best hire and revive their program first? Gophers Mark Coyle or former Gopher Beth Goetz

    It wasn't one or two guys. It was wide open and widely known. The son of a friend of mine was on that team. I asked my friend about it and he REALLY didn't want to talk about it at all.

    Who will make the best hire and revive their program first? Gophers Mark Coyle or former Gopher Beth Goetz

    This. And I'd actually rather live here than San Diego. SD doesn't get warm enough for me (for real).

    Who will make the best hire and revive their program first? Gophers Mark Coyle or former Gopher Beth Goetz

    Claeys wasn't going be a nine win coach again. The guy couldn't sell ice cream to Dilly Bar Dan. And J Robinson had to go. The whole damn team is selling Xanax and he thinks they should just have to apologize? You could make a case for keeping Lucia, but he just seemed disinterested at the end.

    2025 high school football thread

    I would think that would be where they would be most flexible. You could have a situation where a very small school might qualify for 1A based on total student population, but if it had an unusually large population of girls vs. guys for a couple seasons, making it harder to play 11 man...

    Marcus Q&A with Coyle: "I’ve started to have conversations with people today...I’ve had conversations with people about who is interested and not"

    Every AD has some sort of a budget. Sure, some SEC football programs and Oregon probably have insanely wealthy booster groups that buyout and pay for new coaches like it's nothing, but you can't tell me that schools like the U - Indiana, Illinois, Purdue, Wisconsin, Iowa, Iowa State, Missouri...

    Marcus Q&A with Coyle: "I’ve started to have conversations with people today...I’ve had conversations with people about who is interested and not"

    In person attendance for hoops is a drop in the bucket financially compared to TV money, Football, and revenue sharing.

    Favorite Friday: Who is your favorite Gophers men’s basketball player?

    Miles Tarver, Russ Archambault and Mitch Lee :ROFLMAO: Actually, probably Bobby Jackson or Randy Breuer. Soft spot too for Dusty Rychart - it was so cool he became a massive star in Australia.

    Reusse: Unlike the Gophers’ coaching situation, the solution for Williams Arena is simple: Blow up The Barn

    I agree. Which is one of the reasons I brought up that youtube piece on odd college arenas. I think it MAY have been a factor in the pre-NIL, pre-athletes facilities era, but honestly, they aren't spending much time in the arena itself. It's kind of like if you ever tour US Bank Stadium. The...

    Marcus Q&A with Coyle: "I’ve started to have conversations with people today...I’ve had conversations with people about who is interested and not"

    There is no question he's had a short list for some time. He's not going to come out and tell the press all about it. To think otherwise is just stupid. All of his hires have come on board very quickly after the previous coach was fired. He knows who he wants.

    New Coach Short List

    Of course. Wooden was a brilliant coach. And with or without Gilbert (or whatever else may have been going on that we don't know about, if we want to be honest) he had the advantage of coaching in LA in the 60's and 70's. For whatever people want to say about LA and California in general today...

    Reusse: Unlike the Gophers’ coaching situation, the solution for Williams Arena is simple: Blow up The Barn

    Just that as a sports arena, it's really quite odd in terms of configuration. I guess I didn't even realize how strange it appears with the super steep and high sides and virtually no end seating. Certainly not what anyone would consider modern in terms of sightlines or amenities. And you...

    Reusse: Unlike the Gophers’ coaching situation, the solution for Williams Arena is simple: Blow up The Barn

    I just watched a youtube video on unusual/weird college basketball arenas. The Barn was one of them. But there are others that aren't exactly what one might consider state of the art. Including Assembly Hall at IU, and arenas at Vanderbilt, Villanova, and the legendary Palestra in Philly...

    New Coach Short List

    Gilbert is all we actually know about. I'm not trashing on Wooden as a coach. Guy was an unbelievable basketball coach. But the people who put him on some kind of pedestal as the epitome of honesty and virtue are fooling themselves. And it's no coincidence that the NCAA investigation didn't go...
