    All Things Maddyn Greenway Recruitment Thread (Class of 2026, Gophers Offered)

    Are some of you serious on here? You realize you are talking about a 14-15 year old kid right?! Have you ever talked to her? If not...STHU. She get targeted with extremely uncalled for cheap shots from opponents and has to keep her cool as they are trying to egg her on. I would hate for any of...

    The Athletic: Best X and O Coach and Next Big Time Coach Survey

    After some conversations yesterday, it is believed she to be a candidate, and has done a first round interview. One even said possibly a top option along with Duffy. Coyle reached out to La Rocque himself and asked about her interest. I’d still think Duffy the favorite to get it tho.

    Coaching Update: (only stuff that has been confirmed by multiple sources) This is what I have been hearing/confirmed. This might not mean anything but this is what is known. Coaches that can confirm HAVE been interviewed for first round interviews: Megan Duffy - Marquette Kristen Gillespie-...

    Aaron Johnston

    This is incorrect. He has came out and said that he is not interested in the opening. One thing that is different is coaches such as Megan Duffy and Kristen Gillespie have not come out and put out public statements of not being interested. Aaron can not say interested during season but he has...

    Coaches to Watch

    Okay here is a few things to make sure to understand with this coaching search. Megan Duffy- She has a good thing going at Marquette so this is likely a situation where they have to really pay a lot and likely over what is making now at Marquette and maybe even what Whalen was making...

    Freshman minutes

    If they had a play for her, they would have run it at the end of regulation against Badgers at Home. She had 28 points and frankly it came off her setting up her own shot or getting to the openings behind the arc.

    Freshman minutes

    If you look at pure numbers, that doesn't always tell the story. When it comes to turnovers, While yes Katie has moments of good defense and nice passes. However it seems WHEN the turnovers come or the substitution happens that all of sudden leads are gone or close games are not out of reach...

    Hammond and Oberg not returning..

    Here is the updated depth chart heading into next season with losing Oberg, Hammond, Cayton, and Gradwell. Next season will have no seniors so if looking to add transfers, guessing they will need to be Graduate Seniors for only the one season.

    Whalen needs to go, good grief!!!

    First of all... you couldn't be further from the truth. These parents like the players were fully aware AND FULLY support their daughters decisions to go to Minnesota and knew it was a building project. Amaya's dad could not be nicer and the reason they sit to the side instead of behind bench...

    We want the one coach who Whalen has been able to beat..twice this year?

    Coaches to Watch

    This list is simply something to keep in mind as the season progresses on. If and is a HUGEEEE IF Whalen steps aside or is relied of duties, these are some of the names I would expect to possibly be on Coyle’s list. Also, Minnesota is always going to hire a Female coach, so I didn’t bother...

    2024 Recruiting

    I can speak to my knowledge in speaking with the players, while yes I would say 5-8 years ago, it was almost expected that the Gophers would be on the finalist list, that is not the case anymore. Back in the day, Rebekah Dahlman literally took an official visit at Minnesota knowing full well...

    B1G Game 14: Gophers Host Wisconsin (2-11-23)

    There are some key things that come into tonight. First, after the 12-5 start, Whalen had Mara, Mal, Amaya and Rose on the bench with a five of Hammond, Maggie, Cayton, Katie ad Gradwell. WHO IS YOUR SCORING OPTION WITH THAT GROUP? How are you EVER having all three freshman off the floor at...

    When does the seat become hot?

    A friend with prior assistant experience, final four experience and recruiting desire. Something none of the three we have now seem to have.

    When does the seat become hot?

    I would say Hart could start, meaning a starting five of Battle-Braun-Heyer-Rose-Hart (if no transfers or injuries) Klick could be productive in backup SG role to come in, give energy and hit jumpers. Same with Katie next year. Two International players both high ceilings.

    When does the seat become hot?

    Let's review her career, good and bad. Overall Record as of 1/30/23: (69-69) Big Ten as of 1/30/23: (30-52) Positives: -Bringing Carly Thibault-DuDonis on when she first got the job. A fantastic recruiter and outstanding up and coming coach. Also, a key player in getting the 2022s. -The...

    2024 Recruiting

    While I agree usually a list can sometimes signal not picking gophers, I think it more so has to do with the amount of contact the player has to deal with. When they do the top 5,6 10 etc, other schools (usually) stop reaching out so it's less time making call backs etc. Players like Heyer...
