    The Case for Niko (aka Niko’s Case)

    In one podcast I listened to his parents still live in the Twin Cities and he has kids. Grandparents here might win out.

    The Case for Niko (aka Niko’s Case)

    It seems like the majority on this board and the media, both nationally and locally, think Niko’s going to be Coyle’s choice. Coyle keeps things pretty close to the vest, so we’re all speculating. While many of us, myself included, don’t seem super excited about him, I’m warming quite a bit to...

    Cam Christie is entering the Transfer Portal

    The part I highlighted from the previous post didn't show very well. Christie didn't announce it. Media who shouldn't have access to the portal info, announced it. The reason Christie entered, even though he's likely to go to the draft and likely to return to the U, if he comes back to...

    Cam Christie is entering the Transfer Portal

    This is the reason for the portal decision. He's probably 90% gone to the draft. But if he comes back to college he's probably coming back to MN because of the original reason he came here: playing time. If he goes to a blue blood he risks a reduction in playing time, role, ball-handling...

    I also had the thought that Mark Madsen is mining his MN Timberwolves roots in recruiting a couple of Minnesota kids. MN to Cal pipeline being laid.

    College Basketball Transfer Portal Thread - 2024

    If memory serves, last year before the Bob Huggins resignation, they had hauled in a number a top transfers. Yes, he was a top coach, but it also seemed that NIL money was involved.

    I have to imagine West Virginia has some NIL to throw around; that will be hard to compete with.

    Sarcasm alert: Greg Gard's lack of head coaching experience must be catching up to him. Can't keep his team together!

    Any chance of a return?

    He was coming from A&M. Yeah, it looks like his nephew has bounced around a bit, so in hindsight, might not have been that helpful? Fellow Canadian Forward Emanuel Miller was the big additional piece that was a proven player and it looks like he continued to be good for TCU. Would've been nice...

    Any chance of a return?

    One of his original assistant coaching targets was a Canadian coach, but it seemed like some sort of administrative snafu sunk it. Jamie McNeilly, now at TCU.

    Coyle on being “mad” the Gophers aren’t in the NCAA Tournament: “If you could see the text messages to my wife.”

    I know you didn't create the original list of; you just elaborated off of it. The other coaches are better examples of ones that had more success before jumping into greater success. With the Matt Painter example, clearly he has turned out to be a diamond in the rough and a great coach. But...
