    Five Guys On A Shortlist: If the U Decides Change Is Needed, Aim High & Don't Be Cheap With That Big Ten Cash

    Probably not realistic but I'd love it if the Gophs could poach another West Virginia coach and get Devries. I'm sure they'd never pay the buyout and the salary it would require but it's fun to dream.

    Five Guys On A Shortlist: If the U Decides Change Is Needed, Aim High & Don't Be Cheap With That Big Ten Cash

    I was really high on Craig Smith when the U hired Ben but I hope he isn't considered this time. I watched Utah look totally outclassed vs Baylor. I realize it's only 1 game but his conference winning percentage is around 37% in the Pac 12. I really hope Coyle aims higher this time around.

    Five Guys On A Shortlist: If the U Decides Change Is Needed, Aim High & Don't Be Cheap With That Big Ten Cash

    From the info I can find, Otzelberger makes 2.5 mil and McDermott 2.3. Ben making 2 mil is highway robbery.

    Greder: If #Gophers don't bounce back, Mark Coyle will have hard questions to answer on future with Ben Johnson.

    I normally don't believe it serves a purpose to fire a college coach mid season but I can easily see this team being 0-10 in the Big Ten by the end of January. If that's the case I think it's best for all parties not to let Ben to finish out the season.

    ESPN Way to EARLY 2024-25 Men's Top 25 - no Gophers...SHOCKED!

    I predict the Gophers will be one of the top 18 teams in the Big Ten next year.

    With that many in the portal you would think we could find at least one that wants to come to Minnesota

    College Basketball Transfer Portal Thread - 2024

    I’m curious as to what Ben’s recruiting pitch for transfers is. Plenty of minutes available as we will probably only have 3 guys on scholarship

    I think he has big time defensive potential but I don’t believe he has the mindset for it.

    In my opinion Izzo goes too deep into his bench. Ruins their offensive flow at times.

    ***OFFICIAL PENN ST AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    I think the defensive effort is the key. If the coaches can get them to buy in on that end for 40 minutes this team could be really good.

    In over 300,000 games…

    They tried playing strait up man, didn’t work. They tried doubling, didn’t work. They tried a zone, didn’t work. They made adjustments they just didn’t work. This team has had games were they defended well, this was one.

    Gopher Basketball is Fun Again!!!!!!

    I’m not sure I like it. Last year I could watch a game without sweatypalms, heart palpitations, and chewed off fingernails

    How Good/Bad is the B1G this year?

    Maryland, Penn St, Rutgers, Nebraska, and Michigan are not very good. Im guessing Purdue will win the league by a healthy margin. Illinois, NW, Wisconsin and Ohio St look solid. Indiana and Iowa I would say mediocre. Not sure what’s going on at Mich St. Where do the Gophs fit? I feel like they...

    Gophs actually have some talented pieces this year but man the point guard play is going to kill them.

    Is this partly a fan problem?

    I do agree with you that I believe this team will be fun to watch. There is a lot of fan apathy from the last 2 years and the general mediocrity the last 30. Hopefully this team will start to bring back some of those fans but they need a fast start in Big Ten play. Missouri was a huge missed...

    Rochester native Gabe Madsen lighting it up for Utah. Seven 3’s vs Houston pretty much keeping them in the game.
