    We need talented depth, not just serviceable depth. Requiring most of our starters this year to play nearly whole games too often hurt us at the end of some key games and could result in a weary and banged up squad come tournament time (didn't hurt us for the WBIT - but we probably would have...

    Transfer Portal 2025

    This seems like... 29% of all male players? Roughly 400 teams at 15 per team. 1729/6000. Is this accurate? And incoming freshman wouldn't enter the portal before their arrival so they don't factor into the 15 on the roster. That percentage goes even higher. What a mess.

    WBIT Game 5 Championship: Gophers meet Belmont at Hinkle (4-2-25)

    Not directly related to this game: But how many of our four WBIT tournament victories would have Quad 1 and Quad 2?

    Athletic has Minnesota Ranked Number 2 in State Rankings

    An interesting article that builds pride as consolation prize. But it is a fools exercise. Minnesota is not a destination school. Programs with histories of deep NCAA runs and more enjoyable geography/climate will always pull from us. It is just the way it is unless we make multiple trips to...

    NCAA Bracketology

    The NCAA might have better optics for a program from a distance. Maybe for recruiting. But would the WBIT be better for the team's future? Maybe play 4 WBIT games rather than a one-and-done blowout in the NCAA. Maybe allows for Klick, Johnson and Holloway to get more minutes in a competitive...

    B1G tourney game 1: Gophers versus Washington (3-5-25)

    We're not going to outscore WA by 14 in the last 3 minutes. Get the subs in for some minutes.

    Terrible 3rd quarter so far outscored 20-8.

    B1G tourney game 1: Gophers versus Washington (3-5-25)

    Only 5 total fouls. Should give us latitude to start out aggressive on defense in the 2nd half. With the exception of Battle, who will need to avoid early fouls.

    2025-2026 season starters

    Given how well she's played as a freshman this year, it won't take much more development until McKinney is a star. Tough to see her coming off the bench next year. Regardless it is a good problem to have. Teams that win those close, hard fought games have players who come off the bench and...

    I would bet a lot money that this was the case. Subbed based on positional needs.

    B1G Game 16: Gophers visit Purdue (2-19-25)

    It seems like female athletes tend to recover slower from major surgeries like an ACL tear. It looked like Holloway got her athleticism back this season after a cautious one last year (first year after surgery). Woodson will probably show similar rust and caution next season.

    B1G Game 12: Gophers host Iowa (2-6-25)

    Sophie has basically one shot. A center pivot (rotating to her left) baby hook. She has nice footwork on that shot and executes it well... if she's 4' from the rim or closer. Opposing bigs that force her even a foot or two farther out and those shots have literally been airballs. To be truly...

    B1G Game 12: Gophers host Iowa (2-6-25)

    Only down by 6 going into the 4th. Nice open door for us. Just keep that defense up and make those shots at the rim and we can do this. No airballs in the 4th!!

    B1G Game 12: Gophers host Iowa (2-6-25)

    We are a true Jekyll and Hyde team. We have so much energy, heart and focus on defense. But our offense flat out sucks. No other way to put it. We'll have 4 stops in a row... and then get 0 ourselves over that stretch and on Iowa's next possesion will hit a 3 and we've fallen farther behind...

    B1G Game 12: Gophers host Iowa (2-6-25)

    This is much more likely (which is good for our Gophs). As long as you hydrate and get 5-6 hours of sleep it should only take 1 day per hour of time difference to adjust to a new time zone. So we shouldn't be jet lagged at all by Thursday. And it's only a trap if Iowa believes they're the...
