    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT MICHIGAN, WHO CLEARLY WAS LOOKING PAST DUKE TO OUR GAME, IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Yes, the 2022 loss was absolutely abysmal. It was one of the weakest performances I have ever seen at the Barn by our Gophers. That 15 point loss was actually much worse if you were there to watch it in person. I feel no intense need to denigrate Ben Johnson. He was paid well and he tried his...

    Deep corner 3s, which is the weak spot in the 2-2-1 zone Niko is running.

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT MICHIGAN, WHO CLEARLY WAS LOOKING PAST DUKE TO OUR GAME, IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Did you notice where they got most of there 3s? It was in the deep corners. Niko is actually running a 2-2-1 defense. That leaves the freethrow line and the deep corners open. I have wondered when an opponent would exploit that area against the Gophers zone and we saw it tonight. But, hats off...

    That is 100% correct. We will very likely not cover the spread (+22.5), yet we will play the game. That being said, I will be much more happy with these boys in a loss to Michigan at Chrisler than I was in the utterly humiliating loss that Ben Johnson's team took at the Barn against Michigan a...

    Who is the Gopher MVP this year?

    I vote for Niko Medved. There is not one player that stands out among the bunch. The only reason we have won games is because the team is executing the coaches plans to perfection.

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT MICHIGAN, WHO CLEARLY WAS LOOKING PAST DUKE TO OUR GAME, IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    That's not what I am saying (although that may be your view). I am saying that Michigan is far superior to our Gophers and the chances of winning at Chrisler are much smaller than the chances the 1980 USA Hockey team had of beating the Soviets in the Olympics. It's fact, not excuse or wishful...

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT MICHIGAN, WHO CLEARLY WAS LOOKING PAST DUKE TO OUR GAME, IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    With a win, Michigan secures at least a share of the B1G title. Expect the Wolverines to come out with a vengeance. But, we play the game and hope for the best. Illinois and Michigan are giant in the post. Grayson, Cade, and Bobby will be extremely undersized. Somehow we have to keep Michigan...

    To add to Minnesota's troubles for this Tuesday's game against Michigan, the Illinois loss means that a Michigan win over Minnesota means they secure first place in the B1G for the season.

    Just say "How did going to UNC workout for Cade Tyson and Kyan Evans? How did they fair with me as a coach?" Just let the proof of success sell itself. Take a little less to be happy and successful.

    It's actually a better flowing offense than Clem had. Clem just had better athletes. I love how Niko teaches people to hold the ball after catching so that the player with the ball maintains all three options of pass, dribble, or shoot. So many teams dribble immediately and give up options. The...

    2-1 for the Suomi's after 2. Finns with only 11 shots on net, but they are making them count. So far it's a strong defensive game. Go Suomi!!!

    Reusse: Gophers coach Niko Medved’s “Iron Six” pick up win over indifferent Oregon

    I laughed out loud when Reynolds drove toward the basket and the announcers said "He's going in among the trees." At Oregon that could be almost anywhere on the court. 😅
