Of course the previous coach was blamed for everything including not getting sufficient talent from the portal when he had zero revenue sharing $$ and limited NIL.

Very winnable game. Got beat by a freshman who probably would not start for any B1G team … except the Gophers. Picking this team to finish last or 15fh in the B1G is looking correct.

Have to, unfortunately, agree. Unless they’re shooting markedly (magically?) improves, they are going to lose a lot of games. Last two games have been brutal to watch.

Thanks for these stats. Hope he figures it out.

Didn’t see the game becuz was en route to Gooher game. As of today, KenPom has Neb 45, Ok 67, MN 85.

I am an alum and long time season ticket holder. Towards the end of the game, there was a part of me that wanted to pull for GB (even though, in principle, I hate all Wisconsin teams). They were clearly the underdogs and played one helluva game. Let’s not forget that just three nights...

Try telling Izzo that. Gotta strike a balance with this. Too many cupcakes not only rips off the season ticket holders, but does not prepare the exam. This is a long term Gopher problem — I know, I’ve had tickets since Musselman was coach.

Hope you are right. If they should happen to sweep those games, then we do have a team!

I was at the game. Love the ball movement, love the hustle on defense. Crocker-Johnson is an excellent rebounder and defender. Tyson is a scorer and will score in the B1G, IMO. However, this weak nonconf schedule is going to hurt them. The B1G is an entirely different level of play than their...

Tyson is likely to be the star of this team. He is definitely fun to watch. But, as we all know, we will lose a lot of games if the offense relies too much on one guy. Early games will show who else can consistently step up and score. If 2 or 3 others don’t emerge as scorers, preseason...

So fun to see a scorer like that hit his shots. There were many things to like about this game, but the thing I liked the most was the ball movement — no endless dribbling on the perimeter and then a last second prayer. Our guard play promises to be superior to last year. Inside? We’ll be...

I’ve seen Anderson play in several h.s. games for Wayzata. He is a pure shooter, relentless in getting open, can hit his shot under pressure and take the ball to the rim. Look for him to have a great Senior year and for his stock to rise. Hope he commits. Will fit in well with the Medved style...

This morning’s Strib says he plays. Is he hobbled? Idk

It’s worth pointing out that Hoiberg, who is far more experienced than Ben is .319 in winning percentage in the B1G over his 6 years. It ain’t easy to win in this league.

You are right and I was wrong about Covid, but my point still stands. Pitino did not deal with NIL at Minnesota and didn’t lose a star player to the NBA after a freshman season. Oturo played two, Coffey three.

Highly doubt this apples to oranges comparison. Pitino did not deal with Covid or NIL, nor did he recruit and lose an NBA draft pick after a freshman year.

Watched that game standing up in a beach bar in Zihuatanjeo. The place was packed, half and half Gopher/ Bruins fans. Super fun. Mucho Dos X!

LOL

@Ope3 and @Holy Man , not to beat a dead horse, and please take this in the friendly spirit it is intended, but if you’d decided to invest the 8 bucks in Peacock, you could watch the Lady Gophers go up against Juju Watkins tonight 🙂.
