    Marcus: If Daniel Oturu had his NBA draft combine workout on ESPN he would might be in lottery discussion for sure

    I agree with what you said here, but think people were reading a lot into what Marcus tweeted. He didn't say any of the things you listed. I guess your (and my) issue is with the media's overall focus on the sizzle instead of the steak. I'll reread his tweet again, but it seems like people...

    Marcus: If Daniel Oturu had his NBA draft combine workout on ESPN he would might be in lottery discussion for sure

    So...you don't believe that having individual, national exposure would create buzz and have more people talking about him? Again, I'm no Marcus apologist, but I'm not understanding the anger toward this post. He's not saying it would improve his ACTUAL draft stock, just that he'd be in the...

    Marcus: If Daniel Oturu had his NBA draft combine workout on ESPN he would might be in lottery discussion for sure

    I think he just said that Oturu would be in the lottery discussion. He didn't say NBA teams don't have him on their radar. Internet draft "experts" would be drooling if they got widespread exposure to a player with his stats and measurables followed by that solid shooting performance. Marcus...

    Jacob Schuster 2021 DT Commits

    DT always seems like a tough position to recruit. This sounds like a kids who may be able to contribute on day one. Got to love the d-line class...so far.

    Damian Johnson to Benilde-St. Margaret

    I tweeted a “congrats” to him and mentioned I’d love to see him on the Williams Arena bench some day. He replied “That’s the goal!”

    Gophers receive a commitment from Turkish guard David Mutaf

    Lather. Rinse. Repeat. Some seem to love to argue.

    Back in MY day, we didn't have your fancy little Frootie flavored Tootsies! We had ONE kind! It was kinda like a waxy-chocolate flavor that yanked teeth out of kids heads and we LOVED it!

    Nice STrib story on Richard Coffey: 180 Degrees battled COVID-19 on top of tough mission to assist ex-offenders

    Amir's dad may be my all-time favorite Gopher. It sure is nice when a hero ends up being as good a person as you'd hoped he'd be.

    Official 2021 Gophers Football Recruiting Updates Thread: Links, Tweets, Videos etc

    I really like the idea of bringing in DE's with big, long frames that could potentially move inside as their bodies inevitably mature and the strength, conditioning and nutrition kick in. It's not unthinkable that a 6'4"-6'6" athletic high school junior could grow into a special player at DT...

    Even if he's still considering it? I'm exhausted by the sour grapes/conspiracy theories so many whine about on here. Just because high-level local kids don't ultimately choose to stay home, it does not mean they weren't genuinely considering it. Your imaginations are much more vivid than...

    U: First person you think of when you see this picture? (The Barn)

    I have a picture in my head of my Dad laughing at the look of shock on my face after Trent Tucker would drain a jumper from further away than anyone I'd ever seen (for 2 points).

    Absolutely. His punishment was levied and his career ended. I just get the feeling some want to pile on and paint him as the devil. As a coach, my athletes have and will always serve their punishment when they break the rules. What I won't do is treat the athlete like trash and add to the...

    While I understand that Clem allowed for academic fraud to happen, I also think there is some context to consider. Past connections indicated to me that Clem thought he was doing a good thing for those individuals who would not have otherwise gotten that piece of parchment. He hoped that...

    1990 Indiana at Minnesota

    It was a blast watching that game again. Wouldn't it be great to get back to fielding a team where all five players on the floor had NBA futures? For stretches that team went with Newburn-Bond-Lynch-Burton-Coffey, all of whom played in the League. The 2-headed big man monster of Shikenjanski...

    Kill addresses previous comments on Fleck: "I said my piece and that was it. I moved on...I said what I said and move on in life."

    I really wish Coach Kill would have taken the opportunity to explain his previous comments better so everyone could move on. If he'd said he had an emotional response after interpreting some of Coach Fleck's comments as criticism of how he ran his program, I think we'd understand. If he took...
