    This year's team is better than last year's

    I can’t say that they’re better than last years team now, but they may be by the end of the year. And they’re fun to watch.

    My research indicates that all of the programs I don’t like are cheaters.

    This team is close

    I have to say, even though frustrating at times, seasons like this can be fun, as we see potential and hope for the future developing, even with lower expectations.

    Amir Coffey Makes NBA Debut With Los Angeles Clippers

    Good to see him thrive but man what this season could’ve been if he stayed. Tough to fault him though. He gave us some good years.

    Latest Field of 68 Projection includes Gophers, Rutgers

    Good stuff. I still don't expect this team to be a tournament team, but this is turning into a much more fun year than I had anticipated. We have young guys showing promise, and a team that's very easy to cheer for.

    Brad Davison under microscope with new rule aimed at eliminating flopping; heavily boo'd during NC State game

    And I'll also note, and this is a carry-over from my hockey days as well, but some guys are floppers and crybabies, and other guys are cheapshot artists and fake tough guys, and there's nothing more aggravating than people who are both.

    All Things Kaden Johnson Recruitment Thread (Class of 2020, top rated MN HS recruit)

    I don't know why guys are shocked SHOCKED at the allegation that money plays a big role in recruiting. As is being revealed on the basketball side of things, recruiting is such a big business, that it's the height of naivete to believe that money isn't involved in a lot of these football...

    Brad Davison under microscope with new rule aimed at eliminating flopping; heavily boo'd during NC State game

    People don't just dislike him for flopping, as has been made clear earlier. He's also a punk who tries to injure people intentionally, and has had a number of incredibly bush-league plays, with absolutely no self awareness. I literally don't think I could cheer for a guy like that on my team...

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

    So leaving aside all the in-depth tarheel discussion, and comments about marquette, what about that win? Pitino has shown an ability to get big wins in games like this. I’m hoping for a nice NIT run this year and build for next year. Because nights like tonight show that there are pieces even if...

    Final 4

    I don't care what the corrupt NCAA has to say, that season happened, and it was glorious. Bobby J was magical that season. I still remember being on a family vacation and searching the radio for Gopher basketball scores, and hunting for USA Todays that may have a tidbit of analysis. It was a...

    Matthew Hurt

    Well, if you’re a fan of college sports, you have no other option than to hope a lot of 18-22 year old kids fail, and have their dreams crushed. The alternative is hoping every game ends with both teams winning, and going off to fuddruckers for a postgame meal and handholding session. But sports...

    Matthew Hurt

    I am not ashamed to admit I take joy in Minnesota kids who turned us down playing poorly elsewhere. Davison and hurt have made this a happy evening for me.

    So ... How Do We Beat State?

    First we need a healthy Murphy obviously, and Stockman is pretty essential too, imo. We obviously need to hit threes again. If we can grind it with Michigan State, and force them into long jumpers, and then secure defensive boards, we'll have a shot. I think if we get a healthy front court, we...

    Incoming Transfer?

    In the latest Talk Gopher Buckets podcast (highly recommended) Ryan James seemed pretty confident Grant Sherfield was coming, and also hinted that there was a transfer big who would be coming in who would be immediately eligible. I have no idea who that could be. SO LET'S ENGAGE IN SOME...

    Jamir Harris Transferring

    Frankly, I didn't think he was great for us, but it's never fun losing guys after their freshman year. We need quality replacements.
