    Does DTA work with all Gopher teams,

    There's a lot of "I would assume", "We don't know", "I would guess" and the like regarding this subject. Wondering when, or even if, there will ever be a completely transparent accounting on how much and where this money goes. Not to mention if these organizations (individuals) will ever...

    Besides the Gophers who do you cheer for?

    Don't really root for the other Big Ten teams until they get into the tournament. Like to watch Big Ten hoops, with-out really rooting for one team over the other. Seems to give me a nice, unbiased view of the actual game, which is actually pretty enjoyable. I tend to root for the local...

    Looks Bad for the Boys

    To be clear, pretty sure I'm not a knucklehead. More of a Butthead, though I have also been called a chucklehead, so it's easy to confuse me with the others.

    Anyone notice Amir Coffey and Cam Christie playing against the Timberwolves last night?

    If they did, odds that they would actually be the highest paid team in the tournament?

    Game 11: Gophers visit Nebraska (12-8-24)

    Distribute to exactly who? In the first quarter, I'm guessing she was passing to teammates, took exactly 2 shots and by then, it was apparent that nobody was hitting shots. We know that Battle has shown the ability to get and make her shot. I imagine that Coach Dawn may have sent her back in...

    Game 11: Gophers visit Nebraska (12-8-24)

    I was only able to follow on Live Stats, but it seems the only positives today were; Only 4 turnovers and Rose seemed to be offensively efficient off the bench (numbers-wise at least). Everything else? Best to just slam the door on this one and get ready for the next.

    Game 11: Gophers visit Nebraska (12-8-24)

    The missed 3's aren't as concerning to me as the missed lay-ups. As we all know, 3-point shooting can come and go, sometimes with no rhyme or reason. But the Gophers have missed at least a dozen lay-ups today. If you even make 2/3's of them, that's 16 points and you're in the ballgame.

    Game 11: Gophers visit Nebraska (12-8-24)

    Not only that, we've held Neb. to just 4 points in the last 6+ minutes and can't make up any ground. Ugh!

    Game 11: Gophers visit Nebraska (12-8-24)

    6 or 7 missed lay-ups already hasn't helped.

    Game 9: Gophers play Louisiana in NOLA (11-30-24)

    I noticed a significant drop in intensity after they went on the big run and stretched the lead to 20 points in the second half. As for scoring droughts, every team in America goes through those 2-4 minute where they go ice cold and commit a couple of turnovers. Sometimes it's because you're...

    ***OFFICIAL CENTRAL MICHIGAN AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Didn't she actually improve a lot and become a serviceable broadcaster who showed decent potential as the season went on. I remember a female color announcer that, by the end of the season, seemed to have done her homework and was steadily improving on her ability to articulate some of the...

    Plus or Minus 10?

    You're not alone.. It's one of the big problems in this country on pretty much every subject. We see/hear the headline, the lead line, the opening theme, some highlights/lowlights (basically a snapshot of an event) and believe we can accurately fill in the rest of the story based on 1% of the...

    Providing a 100% definitive answer to a pretty relative question is usually challenging. I'll just say, "It Depends.". :)

    I would actually call this an additional topic. Care to answer the question? No? Feel free to move on to the next subject. No suggestion in my post that this topic should be disapproved.

    ***OFFICIAL CLEVELAND STATE AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Either 110% one way or 110% the other. There is no place for in between in life, love or sports. Seems like that's the way the world turns these days.

    Name one thing this team is good at...

    I'm a little late with this it seems, but I was going to say "Compelling posters to bitch and vent". The real question is; as you are venting or writing out your complaints about the program, do you get a temporary rush for getting that out for the world to see? That would actually be a...

    3 Point Shooting

    I've seen plenty of really good players take until into their junior year until the light completely came on. Not that they aren't trying or aren't bright enough. For some players, concepts and recognition skills take longer to become instinctive than for others. As for playing hard, that is...

    3 Point Shooting

    Thanks to Longtime for speaking from coaching experience. Had more than one coach tell me, "Doesn't help if they score 15, but give up 16". Trust built up during practice and work-outs is truly a big deal for most coaches. And Janel is right, players can and do improve. No guarantee, but if...

    ***OFFICIAL OMAHA AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    I generally find the official box score on the Gophers basketball page after the game with the story. I'm not a big fan of the +/- stats. Over the course of a full season, it can be a decent indicator, but on a single game basis, it can and often is very misleading. I posted a classic...

    2026 Recruiting

    Wouldn't be shocked to see her head to Utah. Nice area, Coach Lynne Roberts is a great coach to play for and there's already a couple of Minnesota natives on the team, so there's a little hometown type connection there. Hope we get her. Would hate to lose her to Michigan, but I know Lynne...
