Anyone know when game time for St. Francis contest will be announced? Have Gopher volleyball tickets same night at 7:00 - Big Ten volleyball match has priority over a BB creampuff opponent but would like to attend both if possible - 5:00 start for BB would be perfect for me. Does athletic...

Anyone know what's holding up the release of the Big 10 schedule? In the last "normal" year (2019-20), the schedule was released on Aug 23.

I've noticed that several of you have referred to any transfer recruit outside of the P6 conferences as coming from a "Mid-Major" - I would disagree with that categorization. Of our 4 initial transfer recruits only one (Battle - George Washington) came from what I would consider a mid-major...

As touched on in another thread, Mutaf is currently playing in one of the Spanish pro leagues on a team located in the Canary Islands. In an admittedly small sample size (6 games) he is averaging 23 minutes and 12.2 points per game, shooting 48 percent from 2-point range and a team-leading 50...

I would go all the way back to 1978: Darryl Mitchell Mark Hall Gary "Cookie" Holmes Trent Tucker Leo Rautins Kudos to Pitino and staff for a job well done, especially the off-season signings during the spring recruiting season. The pressure is on to translate the recruiting success into...

For anyone that has been to the State Fair and visited the Gophers sports area: Are they offering any ticket deals for the Sep 14 game or any other game this season?

What do y'all think of redshirting Hurt next season? Amir has proven he can play major minutes at the 3; Fitzgerald is likely to need some minutes at the 3/4; also, with four quality guards we'll likely play small occasionally with three of the four on the court at the same time - barring...

I thought Piper was no longer being considered - what do y'all think of this posting dated Apr 25? "6'6" Djuan Piper out of Rainier Beach has committed to Minnesota!" https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=872769716073534

Apologies to all if this has already been addressed, but has anyone heard from the ticket office concerning a refund for unplayed home games for which we have already paid? The season ticket price was set based on 18 home games (9 B10 and 9 NC) plus 2 exhibitions; this amounts to a base price...

Have you ever wondered what other B10 basketball fans have to pay for tickets? Here's an informal survey based on visiting the official websites for each of the teams in the B10. I apologize in advance for the data gaps - some of the sites required registration for season ticket info - I...

While I agree that adding a team to the Big 10 was a move that was long overdue (20 years operating with 11 teams was inexcusable IMO), I'm not so sure that further expansion to 14 or 16 teams is advisable, unless we can entice one of the glamor teams (Notre Dame or Texas) to join. Those two...

Our home NC schedule finally came to a close with another resounding victory, this time over those pesky Jackrabbits from SDSU (yawn) Here's a few stats for your consideration: Avg Victory Margin (Including Exhibitions): 39.2 points Avg Victory Margin (Excluding Exhibitions): 33.9 points Avg...

Trailing by 19 points in the final minute, Middle Tennessee State was assessed a technical foul for trying to call a timeout when they didn't have any left (memories of Chris Webber in the 1993 NCAA Final immediately come to mind). Tennessee made the 2 free throws to push the lead to 21 points...

I noticed that this season's new BB poster was available at last night's exhibition. Does anyone know if the poster is available for download to use as wallpaper for a computer?

The Strib posted its Big Ten Bowl projections today. They have the Gophers, with a projected record of 7-5, playing in the Champs Sports Bowl at 7pm on Dec 29th. Why does that date and time ring a bell? ...Oh yeah, that's the exact date and time of the Penn State B10 home opener. I'm cringing...

Got a response from Mr. Maturi today which, considering all the things he's got on his plate, is pretty impressive - here's what he had to say: Thanks for the email. I apologize for the delay in responding. As you may know I am coming off of Achilles surgery and needed to look into some of...

I don’t know if it’s been mentioned before on this board but, about a month ago, Iowa announced its Men’s BB ticket pricing structure for this season - $25 for weekend B10 games; $20 for weekday B10 games; and $12 for all non-Conference games – quite a departure from the $31 per game charged for...
