Let the Pearl clutching begin!

Very hard to replicate having mostly one player carry you. In the good old days Waseca constantly imported Australian and New Zealander exchange student BB players who could jump through the roof. I watched one of them one night go for 30 rebounds. That’s far more impressive than 40 points...

Very few teams move the ball like that.

Good players make good coaches. In BB if your players can’t shoot your offensive plan is basically just scribbles on a white board!

So which one would you take?

That’s a lot of people! The most we ever got into my 1973 Toyota Carina was 6. But we were pretty drunk, so we sort of folded more easily!

Since the pondgopher has been on here since 2012 and only has 28 messages, I am honored to be one of an elite group. What I can’t understand is the reluctance from Holers to see correlation between the Universities athletic dept and the continuing lack of success by the teams. Not all of the...

No the alternative is for the U to start backing athletics like some other schools do. It never has, and likely never will.

Coming from you that’s a compliment! Full disclosure: I can’t remember ever seeing one of your posts, so I was just making an assumption. Glad you assume to be comfortable with Coyles decision making processes. But as a general observation, the same people who have hammered the "DEI" hire at a...

Find a politician! FTFY

Right decision, wrong decision? What I find more interesting is the idea that so many are excited about having a new coach hired by the same guy who hired the much belittled Whalen, the DEI Johnson, who fired Claes right after he won a bowl game, a hockey coach who has made Gopher hockey...

If by second point you mean the 50-60 years, I am arguing that. I agree there are things skinned ones, but not ones who have done it that long. You simply could not be sensitive to readers comments and stay in the business. You may disagree with you detractors, but you really don’t give a bleep...

In the NIL era? Should be able to get free beer at Stub & Herbs?

I have no idea if Reusse is trolling or not? It is quite possible. But having listened to him for years, I highly doubt he gives a flying bleep what GH’s think of him. Pro or con. You don’t last in that business for 50-60 years if critical thoughts of your musings hurt your feelings. Plus...

Jerry Kill and Tracy Klaes (sp) weren’t flashy enough. Of course neither would have been Bud Grant or Jim Dutcher!

The Strib asked a few high school BB coaches their take on the coaching search: Barry Wohler, Orono (and former Gophers player) “I would like to see more support for the next coach. How about some NIL money? You can’t give a coach the minimum amount of NIL and lose two of your top players to...

Not enough like buttons on here for this.

I see references to this, even by him, but I don’t do X.

You’re right. He dislikes self promoting blowhards.

Were you talking about me? Or Reusse? Lol
