This bodes well for negotiating leverage CBJ will have with potential incoming transfers.

If the state of MN and businesses in Mnpls can’t come up with NIL money for a competitive bb program in 2024, I am going to enter fan portal out. Like Kaiser Söze you’ll never see me again.

April 2023, he extended. Sorry.

When Hurley portals to Kentucky and SEC, that will shake things up a bit. Could happen imo.

Regarding Betts, if he wasn't already a Gopher, I'd be happy to take a 4-star SF, second best player in CO who reclassified a year early. He'll be a valuable part of '24-'25 as a stretch 3/4. By reclassifying, he was always going to be a project. Obviously, CBJ has had that conversation...

A lot of players would love to be in Big Ten at the Barn, but weren’t highly recruited out of HS. Feeder programs hopefully will allow us to get a couple addnl overacheiving starters who can defend and be coached into playing better (ie Hawkins, Mitchell). I really like the optimism of the...

Just using the most current posted data on3.com portal listings

Here are the current number of players entered into the portal from all the Big Ten teams, with Illinois, Purdue still playing in NCAA tournament. Indiana--3 Iowa--3 Maryland--4 Michigan--4 Michigan St.--0 Minnesota--3 Nebraska--4 Northwestern--0 Ohio St.--1 Oregon--0 Penn St.--5 Rutgers--6...

Just for fun, let’s play “What if?”--What if the mopiness in the locker room from the three portal players is true. Garcia, Mitchell, Hawkins frustrated as the season winds down, knowing Carrington, Payne, and Ihnen are leaving, they go to CBJ with Fox and say, "Hey coach, we want to play...

2-17, 9-11

Everybody wants to win every game, but there are other teams. When I said MN was a middling Big Ten team, I meant it as a positive, an improvement in the right direction. I called a 10-10 conf record in the pre-season as a ceiling that would be terrific. 9-11 is a good step. I think guys...

Just a couple points from a CBJ supporter. I like him. I like the brand he coaches, and the in-game X's and O's are good. He has done a good job. The Univ. of Minnesota was VERY slow to acknowledge NIL as a legitimate process/policy that had to be embraced. Things were said, and I paraphrase...

Payne in portal this am

JOJ in portal this am

There is a lot of discussion based on ??? nothing. JOJ knows exactly why he didn't get major minutes in the second half. CBJ wouldn't sit a guy for no reason. He, like Christie, doesn't defend at a high level. Christie has offensive punch, so he got more time, but he doesn't defend well, as...

Yea, the exposure on TV helps build the MN "brand" as well. Its really something to see all the Big Ten guys in the portal already. Rutgers is losing a lot right as their nation's #2 recruiting class is about to come in. Maryland turnover, Penn St., Indiana, Iowa--guys want out. Indiana St...

I think MN matches up pretty favorably with Ind. St. Avila is very skilled, but he is not nearly the physical presence of Payne. Avila will have a lot of issues defending, and won't play more than 30 min. or so. He's chunky and slow. Garcia should handle the four even more favorably than...
