    Transfer Portal 2025

    Players are still going to often go to places where they know someone from past recruiting. This is where the business community is so important in recruiting during NIL. Companies should be interested in college athletes, especially on the women's side, to pitch their companies or provide...

    SJSU center Robert Vaihola commits to Gophers!!

    I'd qualify it as a great get. One team recruited him based on 247. He developed into a starter with a solid stat line. 27.5 minutes a game and 2.3 fouls per game. Signed with Fresno State and played 22 games as a freshmen shooting 76% from the floor Sophomore Year transferred to San Jose...

    Ex-Vikings coach Mike Tice on Aireontae Ersery: 'This isn't my flavor'

    Based on my own opinions and Tice sharing some of the same, he's not technically sound or makes up for it with athleticism, raw.

    Ex-Vikings coach Mike Tice on Aireontae Ersery: 'This isn't my flavor'

    He says what some have been thinking. He's raw and his athleticism makes up for some mistakes. Will be interesting to see where he goes in the draft.

    What grade would you give the Gophers 2024-2025 season?

    C due to missing tournament. I'd probably say B- with injuries and WBIT win.

    Shooter: Gophers' NIL budget this season —lowest in the Big Ten — was in the $700,000 range, of which Dawson Garcia got $500,000.

    WCCO story last night. "U of M students reported around $245,000 in NIL earnings last year." So a small number of students reported their earnings. Biggest thing I took from the story that leaves me optimistic. At the Power conference level the talent gap isn't big enough to make a $6M...

    Gophers partner with Independent Sports & Entertainment (ISE) to explore potential naming rights for Williams Arena.

    I agree there is an advantage. 1 and 2 seeds advance in nearly every section and that isn’t going to change with equal rest. That brings us back to best solution is 9 game season and need a 5-4 record to make playoffs.

    They want "State" to mean full coverage of state with representation for all regions. I think that is a good standard to have. They want teams ending season with a playoff game. Byes get you an extra 3 days of rest.

    It's geography and I don't think its egregious in any way. Very little movement this year, but the next cycle will likely be big and possibly see some new formatting.
