    B1G Game 13: Gophers visit Rutgers (2-13-24)

    I'm a little shocked that some here seem to want Coach P to pretty much tank the season and try to get people who have obviously shown her every day in practice that they aren't ready or deserving of playing time yet. I'm pretty sure that at her level, she's not gonna just give out playing...

    Other B1G Conference Games 2023-24

    I stand corrected. I eventually got around to checking it out and found out that she did indeed play in the 4th quarter. Thanks for the response. Good reminder to check before you believe!

    Other B1G Conference Games 2023-24

    I have not checked it out, but was told that Iowa pulled Clark in the 4th, to make sure she can set the scoring record in front of the home crowd. Not only do they end up losing the game, but may have cost themselves a #1 seed. Talk about messed up priorities! Worried about individual stats...

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT IOWA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Glad that we weren't forced to bring Hawkins back in with 2 fouls when things started getting a little nervous. Seems Ben had confidence that his guys would figure it out. He was probably thinking " as long as we keep the lead, I can save him.". Great minutes for Fox and Carrington off the...

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT IOWA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Ironic that just about the time some folks start going into panic mode, the Gophers go on a nice run.

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

    Very cool! I keep hearing about how Ben has no fire or intensity, yet at the :45 second mark in the huddle, I saw plenty of both when talking to his players. I guess for some, unless I can see him screaming, yelling, jumping up and down and waving his arms at officials, looking like a 10-year...

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

    It is pretty funny, frustrating, expected and disappointing to watch the comments over the course of the season, heck from minute to minute in a game, go from "We Suck" to "Awesome" to "WTF" to "Great Effort" to "We'll never win!" to "This team has possibilities", ect. on the forum. I try to...

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

    Not often that you see 2 teams that like to get out and run a little, both take under 50 shots in a college game. Good to win a grinder.

    Who was the guy who said we need to shoot 67% from the floor to win? So far, so good!

    Michigan St. Tuesday

    Personally, I can't afford the $100+ monthly fee for even basic cable. I have MLB.com (for the Twins), Netflix, CCAA Network (Division 2 network out here in Ca. for Division 2 hoops) and Big 10+. That's already 4 different subscriptions "about $60 in fees" to keep track of :(. I drop the...

    B1G Game 10: Gophers Host Penn State (1-31-24)

    Yeah, she struggled in the first half. Seems like she's trying to force the action and had some bad turnovers..

    B1G Game 10: Gophers Host Penn State (1-31-24)

    Our team looks sluggish and unsure right now. On defense, PSU is quicker and anticipating very well to close off passing/driving lanes in the half court. On offense, Owusu seems to be a mismatch for us. That stepback at the end of the half was just unfair. While the defensive rebounding for...

    B1G Game 10: Gophers Host Penn State (1-31-24)

    No, the Penn State player. Sanders was right there and her reaction while walking away indicated she knew the PSU player might have a bad injury.

    B1G Game 10: Gophers Host Penn State (1-31-24)

    Bigger issue might be clearing defensive boards and cutting down on the live ball turnovers that create run-outs. Man I hope that girls leg is OK. Judgiing from Sanders reaction, she thinks it pretty bad.

    All Things 2023 D2/D3 Hoops

    That must have been fun! Went to school in Mankato from 74-77, but unfortunately, have not had the opportunity to see them in the Taylor Center. Mostly because of my aversion to be in Minnesota during winter ever again. :)

    STrib: Plitzuweit Sees Opportunity

    I'm interested to see what and where Holloway's minutes will come. With-out seeing her in any practices, and just limited minutes in the post, I'm curious if she might be capable of guarding a 3 out on the perimeter occasionally. She's long, athletic and fairly quick (at least in the post)...

    B1G Game 9: Gophers visit Illinois (1-28-24)

    Count me as another who figured (figures) a 500 in the Big 10 will be a great step and should be considered a successful season. Finishing in the top 4-5 in the Big Ten would far exceed my expectations for this years team. This season is for installing a system and culture and learning how to...

    B1G Game 8: Gophers Visit Wisconsin (1-23-24)

    I saw an interview with Coach P last week in which she mentioned that she wants Battle to look for her shot and be a scoring threat from the point guard spot. She also explained why. I think they'd be comfortable with her taking 10-12 shots per game. She is certainly capable of creating good...
