Not that I’m all that attuned to what’s happening on the national level, but have there been any coaches fired because most of his players jumped ship for better NIL deals? I haven’t heard of any, and I doubt that Coyle would have wanted to set a precedent with Johnson.

Inept.

Hindsight is 20/20, but I was hoping they’d foul. Apparently it’s the statistically smart thing. Be that as it may, the Gophers fought hard and actually did pretty well considering Garcia’s bad game.

For contrast, I just watched the Rutgers-Monmouth game. Good grief. They are both SO much quicker than the Gophers. Water vs ice. Both were excellent penetrating teams. Other than Garcia, can we penetrate at all? Barring a miracle (Williams and Cochran??) it’s going to be a long, cold year.

I didn’t see him on the bench after he was carried to the locker room.

The “crowd” at the OR game appeared to be fewer than 2,000.

Looks like less than 2000 attending?

Have the posters who comment positively on Betts actually seen him play? I saw nothing last season to make me optimistic. So are you guys seeing him in practice, or what?

It keeps the score down.

Per ESPN, his first year’s free throw percentage was 12% (TWELVE percent). It climbed all the way up to the 40’s last year. We should have a solid chance, considering F Michell, Fox and others, of re-capturing our Worst Free Throw Shooting Team in America title from 2022-23.

Looks like we could again “lead” the nation with lowest free throw percentage.

A name I haven’t seen mentioned is Bob Zender from Edina. He was a dominant center back in ‘66-68 who helped the Hornets win 3 straight State titles in a row. Being from Minnetonka (my 3rd high school in 3 years) I was required to hate him. But he was very dominant and came through in the...

It’s become a workers’ paradise. Maybe there’s a lesson to be learned there.

I'd rate most of Dutcher's teams as being better than mediocre. https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/coaches/jim-dutcher-1.html

That rascally Ben is deliberately having us play from behind. It's his basketball version of the rope-a-dope. The other team gets worn out pounding on us, and then we ignite and put them into orbit.

Seems he needs to tighten things up.

It seemed like we were playing against the old Princeton teams. Back door layups galore.

A while back I watched an old video of Gophs vs. Illinois. We lost, but Quincy was phenomenal. I’d forgotten just how good he was in his senior year.

Actually it was the Pioneer Press that broke the story.
