    Ezra: An Insane Number of Schools Tried to Lure Mike Mitchell Jr. Out of Dinkytown with Big NIL Offers

    I’d bet on Williams not even cracking the rotation. He’s probably the 11th guy on the depth chart right now. Allen-Eikens isn’t even on the team yet and Rigbsy/Patterson still need to prove it as they were both pretty bad shooters before last season. The lack of jump shooting on this team is...

    Ezra: An Insane Number of Schools Tried to Lure Mike Mitchell Jr. Out of Dinkytown with Big NIL Offers

    I never said he is an elite player btw. I said he’s an elite shooter and floor spacer and is extremely valuable to this team because of his ability to shoot the basketball. Without him Garcia would be doubled on every single touch because nobody else on this team outside of Mitchell Jr is a...

    Ezra: An Insane Number of Schools Tried to Lure Mike Mitchell Jr. Out of Dinkytown with Big NIL Offers

    Not a lot of volume? Sir, he attempted the 12th most 3s in the conference last year on a per game basis while shooting a high percentage.

    Ezra: An Insane Number of Schools Tried to Lure Mike Mitchell Jr. Out of Dinkytown with Big NIL Offers

    I tend to agree with the first part. I don’t think he has the skill set to be a 1st, 2nd, or even 3rd option on a good team but he is still very valuable as a shooter, might be the best pure shooter in the conference. Good teams always have a sniper like him. I bet Garcia loves having an elite...

    Ezra: An Insane Number of Schools Tried to Lure Mike Mitchell Jr. Out of Dinkytown with Big NIL Offers

    Not sure why folks think Mitchell Jr wouldn’t be coveted. He’s an elite 3 point shooter that can also be a secondary ball handler. I’m not necessarily Ben’s biggest fan but I promise it is okay to give him some credit for some of the guys he’s brought in.

    new roster takes shape

    Well I think he’s technically exhausted all of his eligibility but he had a couple seasons cut short. Not sure what for or how likely it is, I just know in his twitter announcement entering the portal a couple weeks ago he said he will be seeking a medical hardship waiver for the 2021-2022...

    new roster takes shape

    I agree. Provides great size and experience on the perimeter, he raises the ceiling of this team exponentially. Could be a bonafide sidekick to Garcia that can score from all 3 levels of the floor

    new roster takes shape

    Not sure what you define as a superstar but DeSean Eikens averaged 19/5/3 and was 2nd team all league. Could instantly be our 2nd best player behind Garcia and supposedly we are after him, sounds like he might be waiting for a medical waiver to play this year though

    new roster takes shape

    I can’t imagine a sophomore who’s played 7 total minutes of college basketball all of which in garbage time would get put on scholarship over a 5th year senior with experience, but I suppose it’s possible

    new roster takes shape

    It is encouraging that the 5th year kid from Rochester isn’t being put on scholarship cause if they weren’t planning on using the last one it would’ve made sense to put him on scholarship for this year.

    RandBall: Can the Gophers men's basketball team create chemistry this summer?

    Is Eikens visiting at all? I saw we were one of 4 teams recruiting him the hardest. Memphis, Rhode Island, and Hawaii were the other 3

    Gopher Potential Portal Pursuits

    I’m still hoping we use that last scholarship on a wing. DeSean Eikens is probably the best realistic option for us. Would not be upset if we added Glenn Taylor Jr either

    Think this is relatively new interest. On 4/27 Rothstein tweeted a list of schools showing interest in him and we weren’t on it

    Shooter: Plenty of candidates for Gophers job; decision on Pitino was made 10 days ago; Pitino could interview for New Mexico and South Florida

    it's going to be a great day on here when Richard Pitino has a better 1st season at his new school than our 1st year head coach

    Nah, you are only good if you grew up and attended high school in Minnesota like Theo John and Dawson Garcia. That's what all the Pitino haters tell me atleast
