    Will you still be invested at the same level of fandom for men’s college hoops in the future as you are currently, based on all the changes now??

    I still love CBB, but it's definitely not the same as it used to be. I'd say peak CBB was the 90's and early 2000's. This year there were only 4 mid major schools that received a #10 seed or better (not including Gonzaga). As a point of reference in 1998 there were ELEVEN! And take a look at...

    He started 34 games on a team that was a 9 seed. He's definitely a legitimate B1G starter quality.

    He's come full circle. He was originally a Kansas commit out of HS. Lol.

    Well, he's obviously a high major player. And he's a projected 2nd round pick, as of now. If I was his parent, I'd be thrilled that's he's in line to get a $2M payday somewhere soon, and the added exposure of playing at a high major school, if he doesn't declare for the NBA draft. He could...

    I'd probably lean Payne, slightly. But at what cost? If Payne is gonna get over $1m, I'd rather take JCJ. But either way, my point was that CSU was a good team last year. It's not like JCJ played for Air Force or San Jose State.

    One played on a team that made the R32, the other played on a team that made the R32.

    He's a good college player, and I'd take him back, but he's not a skilled player. He has no handle, face up game, and can't shoot. He's is very good at backing the defender down and either dunking or shooting a hook shot over his left shoulder.

    Jaylen Crocker-Johnson to MN!

    9 ppg and 4.4 rpg on a top 50 team is more than decent IMO. If he shows improvement like he did from his FR to SO year he'll be a huge asset.

    Ben Johnson is a Disaster

    Because the people insisting this thread die are the same one bumping it to say exactly that.

    Niko’s roster construction

    130 of the top 150 (according to 247) players still remain in the portal.

    Niko’s roster construction

    I'll start being concerned if we start signing D2 players, bring in a backup Center from Stephen F. Austin, or sign an offensive lineman out of football eligiblity.

    Done Deal! - MINNESOTA HIRES NIKO MEDVED!!

    What a massive upgrade. I'm curious what his salary will be. From what I've read he was making $1.7m this past season. Guessing we doubled that if not more.

    Final Field of 68 Projection: Biggest Questions? Does SEC get 14 & does Mountain West get at least 4?

    But they were 6-0 in the OOC against P5 teams, and beat Michigan, Louisville and Arizona all teams that made the conference tournament championship game in the other power conferences. Plus their overall record is 20-13. They have a pretty strong resume relative to teams around the cut line. My...

    Hallman: Black coaches' shelf life is much shorter & benefit of the doubt much less practiced as opposed to their White counterpart

    Craig Smith fired after 4 seasons. Kevin Kruger fired after 4 seasons. WHY DON'T WHITE COACHES GET THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT!!??

    Hallman: Black coaches' shelf life is much shorter & benefit of the doubt much less practiced as opposed to their White counterpart

    What a joke. CBJ skipped the line to become coach here. Whether it was because he was African American, from Minnesota or went to school here, he certainly didn't earn this opportunity. He was given 4 years, the worst 4 year stretch in the programs history. I don't mean to shit on CBJ, because I...

    At 1:19am, 3.13.25. - The Ben Johnson Era has ended and Ben is fired

    Yeah, but if CBJ had us in the top 50 of the NET and in position to be a 10 or 11 seed he would have been retained. OU just has higher standards, which is fine, they have a much better history of sustained success than we do. Especially this century. But that still doesn't have anything to do...

    He might, but what does him potentially losing his job have to do with anything? They finished 14th in the conference. We finished 12th. They're going to make the tournament, we won't even make the NIT.

    At 1:19am, 3.13.25. - The Ben Johnson Era has ended and Ben is fired

    I'm just saying, B1G record doesn't really mean much, when the OOC schedule and performance have routinely been as poor as they have. There's a reason a team like OU can go 7-13 in the SEC and pretty safely make the tournament this year.

    At 1:19am, 3.13.25. - The Ben Johnson Era has ended and Ben is fired

    Our record says we tied for the 2nd worst record in the B1G with Rutgers. The only difference is they played a harder schedule than we did.
