    K-State student athletes are taking a stand against racism

    Because the cop may end up getting a lighter sentence from this fact, which sucks but is part of the truth

    K-State student athletes are taking a stand against racism

    To be fair, he said "put down because he held a gun to a woman's stomach," not because he was on drugs when the cops interacted. I don't agree with his post at all, it's incredibly dumb, but you're mixing the two scenarios. No one is saying he deserved to die from the cops.

    K-State student athletes are taking a stand against racism

    Dude, I've provided like four sources of court cases setting precedence for this type of thing and all you keep saying is "it's private property, they can expel him." I figured you wouldn't be able to back up your claims with actual evidence. Whether you agree with it or not, there is no...

    K-State student athletes are taking a stand against racism

    Who is justifying his death? Show me one comment that says he deserved to die. It's a fact that he had drugs in his system (and I don't really care about that, let people do what they want). But you're just putting words in other people's mouth and creating a strawman argument by saying people...

    K-State student athletes are taking a stand against racism

    You have a source for any of this or are you just making it up as you go? I already provided one court case that is relevant to this situation. Here's three more sources that agree that the first amendment applies to public universities. As long as someone is not inciting violence, they can say...

    K-State student athletes are taking a stand against racism

    The guy's tweet was insensitive and in poor taste. It was a terrible joke. But he absolutely cannot and will not get expelled because of it. There are already court cases that set precedence for this type of thing at a public institution. Tinker v. Des Moines says students have a right to free...

    Indy Star: It was the hottest basketball sectional. Then attendees started dying of coronavirus.

    It will be much lower for sure. Here's a study from the U of M a couple weeks ago that estimated the rate at 0.6%, and many people's estimates have continued to go lower as time goes on...

    Are you essential?

    Also, liquor stores need to stay open because if alcoholics are unable to purchase, some will have serious withdrawals and fill up valuable hospital space. May not be essential for most people but definitely needed for some.

    Pitino coming back

    Metrics don't mean everything, no. But they are important and give better insight into how good a team is than only looking at W/L record. There was a reason Ohio State remained around the top 10 KenPom rankings for most of the season, even when they fell to 2-6 in B1G play. And look how they...

    Congrats to Men's Basketball for Finishing 27th in the Nation Per Ken Pom (highest end of season rank under Pitino)

    Non-conf strength of schedule usually has small schools highest in the rankings. Gophers had the 12th hardest non-conf SOS of major conference teams and the toughest in the B1G. It was not a hyperbole. If we replace 2 or 3 games against Butler, DePaul, or Oklahoma with cupcakes like most other...

    Pitino era is over, start the search now.

    What would you have done differently to win this game? Tell Gabe and Marcus to make the free throw? This was was not on Pitino at all

    Why would you keep Pitino?

    Because good programs don't have a new coaching search every five years or so and pray that this time it will surely be the right move. We can keep resetting back to square one every few years by hiring a new coach or keep a coach around and have some stability.

    Oturu rebound padding

    I don't see this sequence in the play by play at all, like the other poster said it was probably a missed rebound that was input after the fact, then the clock stamp on the play was adjusted shortly after...

    Will the Gophers season translate to better ticket sales?

    As long as we don't do something dumb like raising ticket prices yet again

    QB competition next year???

    Can't believe this is even a discussion. TM was one of the top 5 or 10 QBs in the country and will start every game next year barring injury or complete regression

    All Things Pitino rumor mill thread

    Washington seems like a lateral move at best. Doesn't make sense that he would throw away the last four years and the recruits he's got coming in to move sideways.

    NCAA Tournament 2017: Thank you Minnesota Basketball

    http://www.thedailygopher.com/2017/3/16/14947538/ncaa-tournament-2017-minnesota-basketball-thank-you I was pretty down after the loss yesterday, seemed like a really disappointing end to the season. Saw this article today - written before the game yesterday. Reminds me of what this team...

    Since a petition to fire Claeys worked, here's a petition to fire Coyle/Kaler

    http://petitions.moveon.org/sign/terminate-the-u-of-m?source=c.em.cp&r_by=17397077%20Thanks! If a petition can fire the coach that led us to the second 9+ win season in over a century, why should we keep around the president of our University who has not seen any success and the AD that fired a...

    NY Times: How Arizona State Reinvented Free-Throw Distraction

    "A shark attack. The return of Elvis. Twerking farm animals. A shirtless guitarist. Kissing unicorns. An old lady yelling at you to get off her lawn. Distracted yet? So, too, are college basketball players, who have tried — and often failed — to overcome the creative attempts of students at...
