    Calvin Sampson of Houston

    Would he come here? His son played under Tubby. Gates and Dutcher looked over matched for a prime time gig like Minnesota. Dutcher team a 10 minute drought. They don’t play anybody and are getting embarrassed by Syracuse.

    Marcus Carr & Brandon Johnson Appreciation Thread

    Thank you guys for always playing your hardest. Brandon had some off games shooting but never lacked any hustle and heart. Carr, appeared to try to do too much at times, but never lacked any heart or hustle out there. It stinks playing under a coach that cannot draw up a successful offense and...

    Bruce Weber?

    KSU had a bad year, seems like he has had an issue with the AD and some players this year. Had great success with Illinois in the Big 10. He can recruit and is a well known coach. Just thought, maybe he'd consider the MN job? He's 64. This could be considered a stupid thought/post...

    Positives from last night---Mashburn Jr & Ihnen

    It was another ugly, ugly road loss in where the Gophers could not shoot and did not wake up until midway through the second half. But, if you had to take any glimmer of positivity away from last night's game it would be from the performances of Mashburn Jr. and Ihnen. Mashburn Jr. has played...

    Michigan

    Michigan dismantled Wisconsin last night and even led by 40 at one point. They look to be the second best team in the country being the Zags right now. They are blowing out everyone right now. The Gophers are not alone. So our four losses have come against top-10 teams.

    The best Christmas present came on December 28 at The Barn

    I have that Tuesday morning feeling. Happy as can be. That was complete domination from tip off to the end of the game. I think this may have been the Gopher's best performance in any game under Pitino. Active on both sides of the ball. When is the last time we have seen that? I hope that is...

    Pitino's Offense

    How do you even describe this horrible style of offense? Dan Dakich, love him or hate him, he speaks his mind, was blasting our offense all night last night. They don't move the ball around at all. It was pathetic and lazy against a ranked Big 10 opponent. This has been a common theme for the...

    Greenlee

    Any of you think Pitino is trying to convince him to transfer out of here? He's pretty much just a body with limited positives for this team. I am not exactly sure how this works, but if he were to transfer out that would open up another spot to have someone eligible come in right away? Any...

    Oturu to enter draft per ESPN

    Where does Gopher MBB go from here?

    The season came to a screeching halt this morning due to Covid-19 precautions. The Gophers ended this season on a high note beating a terrible NW team 74-57 and finished the season 15-16. The record doesn't really state the obvious as the team was mostly competitive this season in losing quite a...

    Would Minnesota accept a CBI bid ?

    :ROFLMAO: Sarcasm, but I felt like posting it for some reason.

    Would Minnesota accept an NIT bid?

    Frankly, they have work to do to be considered for the NIT, but let's say they finish at .500 or one game above. Hypothetically, that would get them a spot in the NIT. Would the team even accept? I'd figure Oturu would opt not to play. I wouldn't be all that excited to watch, but it might be...

    This team reminds me of the 2009-2010 Michigan Wolverines

    Michigan was supposed to be stellar housing two potential All-Big 10 players in Deshawn Sims (big man and could be compared to Oturu) and Manny Harris (guard could be compared to Carr). And, they had a sniper from deep in Zach Novak (who could be compared to Gabe, a little bit). Michigan ended...

    Isaiah Ihnen

    In my opinion Ihnen was a huge bright spot in our loss yesterday. He hasn't received a lot of playing time this year but that is going to change. Seems like he plays with some good confidence and isn't afraid to shoot and can potentially knock down some big shots with more playing time. I'd...

    Joey Brackets lists Gophers as the first team of the last four in 1/28/2020

    We moved up four spots since his last Bracketology posting on 1/24/2020. Nice to see that our strong NC schedule is paying dividends for a team with a 11-9 record. I assumed we wouldn't be in super close consideration for the NCAA tournament after getting blown out by 20 at home. Granted, to a...

    NBADraft.net has Oturu going 8th in the 2020 draft updated today

    https://www.nbadraft.net/nba-mock-drafts/ This is usually one of the more accurate forecasts. I've seen another one that has Oturu going 19th.

    If Willis plays last night we win

    Marcus Carr had a phenomenal game overall. He was trying to do a little bit too much there at the end but he was absolutely gassed. Would have definitely helped to give him a couple breathers down the stretch. I don't think he makes those dumb mistakes and turnovers if he had a chance to get...

    Has this team given up on Pitino?

    Monday's loss was pathetic in all phases of the game. But, what truly is aggravating to watch is the team's undisciplined character. Is it that they are that undisciplined? Or, do they just lack motivation to play for this coach? The Gophers do not hustle back, they make lousy passes, take...

    The road to 9 wins seems to be more realistic at this point

    That was hard to watch last night. A team that does not hustle, cannot shoot 3's consistently, weak inside presence aside from Oturu, and zero bench production. It seems like players rarely get better under Pitino's coaching style. Granted, Oturu has taken a nice leap (Thank god. Someone...

    Monday morning blues

    Anyone else still not over the loss? I really thought we'd punch Wisconsin in the mouth and break that Minnesota stereotype of always losing the big one. It has been "so far" an awful weekend for Minny sports. Maybe the Vikings can come through for us tonight!?
