    Three-star Minnesota signee Jacob Ross has requested his release from his National Letter of Intent and will reopen his recruitment

    Like Betts...I'm not sure who is advising some of these guys. Many schools don't recruit freshmen anymore. There are over 1000 guys in the portal who are older with some tape in many cases. Hopefully, for his sake some school is begging him to go there. You were willing to play for Ben and his...

    P.J. Fleck says Mark Coyle 'hit a grand slam' with Niko Medved hire (video)

    I think it might just be the 10 days of complimentary buffets at the Wynn.

    Niko’s roster construction

    Serious question: Some players wear tights, sometimes even on just one leg under their shorts. I'd prefer to wear long pants...like warmups. Can I do that by rule? I mean we are gonna need shooters and I could help. Dang, I hadn't even considered this...I was volunteering for free....but no...

    Shama on Medved: There’s reason to believe he’s the best since the Clem Haskins era of 1986-1999.

    Couple things: I think with NIL/revenue sharing Medved is maybe setup with the best chance for success in the last 25 years for somebody to win at Minnesota. If we win attendance will increase but that is tougher challenge. NCAA changing landscape has created fan apathy around the country...

    Xavier Hires Pitino

    As Diehard said, the Mountain West was...was a cool conference but not so much now. Pitino supposedly is going from $1.2 to $4.2 million per year. Big East is a basketball conference. Xavier does not have football...all eyes and dollars are on basketball. His NIL is supposedly $8 million vs...

    Xavier Hires Pitino

    Confident he was going somewhere. Good luck to Richard! Assuming the two guards are following him.

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

    "yesterday we set records for basketball donations..." um...DTA started during Ben's reign. Was the previous record one? Being snarky...happy we are off to a good start with Niko.

    Richard Pitino to Villanova?

    Except, the Iowa and Minnesota openings were older. I agree it appears Richard thinks he's going somewhere...and it may not be Villanova. Agree with you.

    Ben Johnson is a Disaster

    Any AD reading or hearing Ben talk about all his superstitions is not going to hire him.

    Richard Pitino to Villanova?

    Me either. But, it was true for Niko and McCollum too...until it was confirmed. Do know this...it seems Pitino is going somewhere based on his two best guards hopping into the portal. Dent said Sunday..whereever Pitino is, I am. Washington endorsed Richard many times publicly over the season...

    Niko’s roster construction

    Donovan Dent, Mountain West MVP point guard just jumped into the portal. Be a nice first acquisition for Niko.

    I haven't been this excited and optimistic about Gopher hoops since mid-Tubby era!!! LFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Loved is too strong. I had several posts in his last Gopher season saying it was time for a change. Still believe it was. Ben just wasn't the right hire. But, several people on here dismiss Richard as having no value, lousy coach who wouldn't have a job if it wasn't for his dad etc. I just...

    Pitino has two I believe...one in Des Moines and then Murphy and Matz got hurt. And one this weekend in Cleveland.

    I haven't been this excited and optimistic about Gopher hoops since mid-Tubby era!!! LFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    You probably need at least something to point to why you feel this true. I gave you head to head records...you gave me because I say so. I'll add a second point Pitino has a MW regular season title and a MW conference Tournament title. Niko has one MW tournament title. Pitino also has an NIT...

    I haven't been this excited and optimistic about Gopher hoops since mid-Tubby era!!! LFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I'm not disagreeing he has the best resume but is he a better coach than Richard Pitino? Mountain West head to head favors Pitino. Pleased Medved is our coach.
