    The Case for Niko (aka Niko’s Case)

    I'm going to focus my bracket on a few of those solid facts this year. The Mountain West is 1-24 including 22 straight losses. That's bad. I'm not picking a single MWC team to win. :)

    The Case for Niko (aka Niko’s Case)

    Not wishing anything bad on Colorado State, but in our favor, this could be resolved sooner rather than later: 45. Mountain West teams seeded 10th or worse are 1-24 in the first round, including 22 straight losses. All four conference teams to earn a bid are double-digit seeds: New Mexico...

    At 1:19am, 3.13.25. - The Ben Johnson Era has ended and Ben is fired

    Not sure I'd put it quite like that but yeah. She's been unbearable for years.

    Where will Ben land?

    On his feet. What has he taken in here? Somewhere in the neighborhood of 8M? He'll be ok.

    New Coach Short List

    While I think the Gophers are about 25 years overdue for a good break I can't help but think this is the guy who thought Ben Johnson was the answer in the first place. I'm hopeful because I don't think things could be much worse but I will wait and see with bated breath what will happen.

    Hard to be even disappointed. Hope springs eternal for next year.

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA VS NORTHWESTERN BIG TEN TOURNAMENT WEAKLING WEDNESDAY IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    It's been inexplicable to me. We've had teams that should have beat up on them like they're 3rd graders yet we've found new and frustrating ways to lose. Until the Gophers turn that around for a few years it's hard to think they'll win.

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA VS NORTHWESTERN BIG TEN TOURNAMENT WEAKLING WEDNESDAY IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    So sorry to be the bringer of bad news but Northwestern for whatever reason has had our number for about the last 20 years. I see no reason why they won't today. Gophers lose this one and we get on with decisions about next season.

    ***OFFICIAL wisconsin AT MINNESOTA SENIOR NIGHT (JOHNSON'S LAST HOME GAME?) IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Someone would have to explain to me like I'm a 6 year old: Why people think we're some sort of an elite program that a coach would desire to come to. It is really too bad about Johnson. It seems to me that he would be invested in the long term success of the basketball program unlike others...

    Fire Ben Johnson

    With every win I think Johnson should be given another year. Talk me off the ledge.

    Glad for them to have won a game last night. It's always fun to see a buzzer beater.

    No Ben Johnson Show

    If I'm not mistaken you're one of his most ardent haters. I mean I don't like the guy either and feel he needs to go but you're on a whole different level and you seek out his radio show and then wonder why it's not available for your listening pleasure? Have I missed something here?

    Shooter: Alumni and assorted boosters are pushing Ryan Saunders, the ex-Gopher who is an assistant for the Denver Nuggets, for the Gophers head job.

    Still looking at the names being thrown out there and wondering if you all are on drugs. What would make this an attractive job?

    ***OFFICIAL OHIO STATE AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    As an aside I really thought that Johnson was the guy but it's beyond apparent he is not. Coyle should be fired along with Ben who I do feel bad for personally but honestly the guy is going to make more money in a few years than I've ever a chance to make in my lifetime. Time to start over with...

    ***OFFICIAL OHIO STATE AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    An interesting question for the class I suppose. Now that players are being paid can we lower the critical boom on them? Usually, you could only criticize players to a certain point; coaches of course no holds barred. Now that some of these guys are making decent, even a lot of money, is it open...

    A qualifying list of potential replacements

    It will need to be explained to me why this is an attractive job. I'm looking at some of the names that people are throwing out and wondering if you're all on drugs.
