    Transfer Portal 2025

    She definitely has a line on some money if she if she is forgoing the draft, especially if she has a DNC status in the portal. With the right team positioned for a National Championship run she might be seeing one year check a lot nicer than her Rookie WNBA contract. We know you don't get rich...

    2025 Transfer Portal Watch

    I happen to stumble on this online regarding Niko's father Miro Medved. He seems like an interesting guy with unique ties to Slovenia from a business perspective. Here is a short profile...

    Jefferson is Gone

    It's hard to fill in all the details that have to be going on behind the scenes. If Jefferson had been promised a decent amount of playing time by Ben with guys like Parker Fox graduating and then Niko comes in and is straight with him that he has plans to bring in some veteran guys from the...

    Shama on Medved: There’s reason to believe he’s the best since the Clem Haskins era of 1986-1999.

    Actually, I completely disagree with your take. If Medved comes to MN and duplicates the same level of success that he had at CSU, then his success will have far exceeded what Pitino did in his 8 yrs at MN. Looking at these numbers I think bares that out: In his time at MN, Pitino had more...

    COYLE FIRES BEN JOHNSON!!!!!!

    Yeah, no one is shedding a tear for Ben Johnson. Despite all accounts that Ben was a good guy, we have a coach who came into Minn with No P4 head coaching experience and is walking out the door with millions in his pockets.

    COYLE FIRES BEN JOHNSON!!!!!!

    It's not like this process just started today. I'm sure unofficially the process has been in flight for a few weeks as they start to identify candidates and likely have brought in one of the search firms if they are really serious so they can manage the offers/negotiations with the coach's...

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

    Yep, then in typical MN fashion, he rewarded us with a 15-17 season the following year with 4 conf wins.

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

    I commend any Gopher B-ball fan that still has enough interest to pay attention and even be on the board to make comments at this point. These are the program results for the last 10 yrs: I guess my question is at this point is there any commitment to this program by the University leadership...

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

    Yeah, it's gotten beyond ridiculous this year. With 3 min left in the game they were 11 for 19 (58%). Good chance this costs us another game or we sneak out with a win when it shouldn't have been this close.

    McKenna Johnson's Playing Time

    I don't question Coach P's acumen as an in-game coach and her right to have the players play her style of basketball. However, she may also need to evolve her style when it comes to roster management. You better have a really good sense of every recruits mentality and how it fits your team. (I'm...

    B1G Game 17: Gophers host Washington (2-26-25)

    Yeah, with tonight's play it's hard to complain if they don't make the tourney. With a loss tonight they will have lost 8 of their last 12. To say they are limping into the B1G tournament is an understatement.

    McKenna Johnson's Playing Time

    Well, it isn't hard to tell how much and which players aren't satisfied with their current roles. The transfer portal window will be open on March 25-April 23 for women's basketball. You can bet that players these days keep the cell numbers for every coach they turned down the first time just...

    B1G Game 14: Gophers visit Ohio State (2-13-25)

    Great game as they had a shot, but in the end, you can't go on the road and go 5-22 (22.7%) from behind the arc and expect to win. If OSU doesn't have some terrible numbers from the charity stripe (13-22) that kept us in it.

    The Arizona Cardinals are expected to hire University of Minnesota’s Winston DeLattiboudere as their new defensive line coach...

    Well, we'll see if this is the end of the damage to the defensive side of the ball. When you lose a successful DC followed by a very good and popular D-Line coach in DeLattiboudere, they is no telling if all the recent players he recruited will stick. We still have the next college football...

    Transfer Portal so far (UM, IA, NE, WI)

    Looking at On3's rankings, you can see what got Hetherman excited about Miami besides the size of the NIL budget as they already have two new 4-star CBs on the payroll.

    Who do you want to win the Super Bowl ?

    Definitely, don't count them out for the SB with the way they are playing with Daniels. They split with Philly in the reg season, so it should make for a good NFC Conf Championship game.

    B1G Game 7: Gophers visit Northwestern (1-19-25

    I agree about Iowa as their margin for error is narrowing quickly. They have their next two on the road at ORE & WASH after having lost 4 straight going to 2-5 in the B1G. If they slip up with these two road games and as they have yet to play UCLA, USC or OSU, their chances could start slipping...

    B1G AP Rankings

    I don't think it's impossible for them to pull an upset if Tori is back. I watched the Wisc & MD game on 1/11 and MD was only up 62-60 at the end of the 3rd Qtr. However, the Wisc def folded in the 4th and MD went on a 21-8 run. Again, if Tori is back I don't see the Minn def folding like that...

    Minnesota’s Corey Hetherman new defensive coordinator at Miami

    I know this completely sucks and don't get me started on Coyle's bargain basement running of the men's B-Ball program, but we were never going to win this one. When a program is willing to not only give Hetherman a raise but also pay a $600K buyout we weren't going to win a bidding war. On top...
