    Official Brad Davison is a Tool Thread

    The fact that there is an entire thread dedicated to this person indicates he is getting exactly the reaction he's hoping for (otherwise said: it's working). Just ignore it and move on.

    Hoiberg/Nebraska RUMOR

    They had it pretty good with Tim Miles, for Nebraska basketball at least.

    This isn't going as planned

    You ask for people to be patient, but you wasted no time to say that "things aren't going as planned..." Asking everyone to take a breath, but just kind of lobbing it in there that "I am still very skeptical of the recruiting for '22"... unreal. You need to take a breath, enjoy overachieving...

    2020-21 Gopher Transfers - Where Are They Now?

    Oregon St is terrible. Like really bad. I watched a little bit of their game yesterday against Arizona, and while AZ is very talented, Oregon St is just horrible.

    So far I am totally wrong...

    Exhibits of your ridiculousness: Exhibit A: A HOF coach had a multi-year lead in recruiting Holloman vs. Ben. Exhibit B: Holloman is not a ridiculous talent but MSU is really hard to pass up (Izzo is the man IMO). Exhibit C: He got 3 top 10 kids in the state to sign when he'd been in the job...

    So far I am totally wrong...

    The thing that I absolutely loved about watching the Princeton game was the intensity of the coaching staff. You could hear both Ben and Thorson screaming encouragement on nearly every possession. This kind of energy and contagiousness is what was being begged for with the previous regime...

    Jalen Suggs recent interview

    This whole thread is hilarious. "My friends sister's wife's girlfriend knows a guy, who said he acts like a baby, etc.". LOL. And to suggest he was grandstanding when he was hurt in his first game is stupid and ignorant. It's a future pro, in his first game, gets hurt, sees his future flash...

    Minnehaha Academy drops to 2A?

    This is true and has been for... forever. I am old enough to remember the one-class state tournaments they had for only 2 years.... '94-96. Would be fun to see the 4-class champs play in a final four format to crown a single champ. But the MN state high school league in all their wisdom and...

    All Things Gophers Basketball Class of 2022 Recruiting Thread

    He plays hard and is a better shooter than people give him credit for. He played on a team with 2 future top 3 picks; easy to get lost in that shuffle. I don't think he's a day 1 starter but I think he can play and contribute as a 3 and D wing.

    Assistant Coaches

    If you played against Coach Thorson's De La Salle teams you know what gritty means. Not a single easy pass in the half court. Will be interesting to see how this translates to the U, but his teams always played with a mindset that it wasn't going to be easy for the other team offensively...

    All Things Gophers Basketball Class of 2022 Recruiting Thread

    Aligbe would be a real solid get for the Gophs. He plays hard and is a high level athlete. The Omersa comparison is not really fair, nor is the Rodney one, for different reasons. I view Prince as more skilled than both of them, not quite as athletic as Rodney, but with a high motor. By...

    Imagine if we had won one of the MSU, Wisky, Maryland games

    Not a big what if person but I'll do it anyways, what ff we had won just one game of the MSU, Maryland or Wisky games. Feeling good about things but so encouraging to be winning games that we should, and being hyper competitive in the ones that are against solid teams. Been a while since...

    Observations

    I've watched 3 of the 5 games, the three that have been against more legit opponents (UTA, SJU, ARK). The good: - Coffey; better than advertised, very good with the ball and in transition, best passer on the team. - Curry; he is very, very smooth and doesn't look overwhelmed, shooting stroke is...

    Oregon

    Watching Oregon thrash LSU. Rather sad it didn't work out with Devoe here. He is a very good offensive player, and is fun to watch. Did we offer Carlos Emery? I thought at one time we were interested. He looks pretty good. Might be the Oregon system, but he is a big body, athletic, and...

    Rodney

    I don't think enough can be said for his development this year. He is turning into the guy that does a bit of everything; score in transition, rebound, block shots, assist, etc. One sequence last night that I think epitomized his development, in a round about way: bricked a free throw, then...
