Watching the last two games our team can roll out some incredibly explosive lineups that can get up an down in transition. It is incredibly disappointing how poorly all these great athletes play team defense. The guards just get torched off the dribble and there rotation is so slow. It just...

I'm perplexed and frustrated.

Austin played a good game today. Very active, hustled really well and wasn't afraid to take the shot when he was open. Didn't make the few open jumpers in the second half but overall really solid for a freshman. Trying to take the positive out of a game that should have been much closer...

I heard coach Kill make reference to the fact that he transferred because of interest in playing Bball this morning on the sports huddle. Really too bad he made that decision because he could be getting some good minutes right now. I know he is very unproven but I think he could've brought a...

Did he get hurt in the game? Why did he only play a few minutes, especially with Nolen going down? Sorry if this has been discussed.

I have doled out my fair share of criticism to Devoe and I think some of it is deserved. Watching the game today something stuck me. While a player like Jordan Taylor carved us up earlier this week, he did so on picks that left him either uncovered or with a miss match. We run some screen in...

Here is my take on why we lost: 1. Mbakwe Foul Trouble: His two fouls on the first half that made him sit were completely avoidable. For us to win he has to play as many minutes as possible. 2. Wasted Possessions: Even though Devoe had a better game offensively we still settle for too many...

Maybe someone posted this already but I cannot wait to get this guy off our team next year. It looked like he was trying to lose the game for us last night. Costly turnovers, matador defense, horrible shots, and nearly getting t'd up in OT. And the one big basket he had (driving and one) was...

Has anyone else just about lost their ability to cheer for the Gophers without pessimistically thinking there is no way they are going to pull off the win. I've been a diehard fan since I was 6 and spent my four years at the U watching Monson's worst years. I enjoyed being a fan even when we...

I don't get a chance to get to many games but i text back in forth to friends at the games. After talking to a friend after the game today he told me that his phone has now programed itself so that anytime he types f*ing into his phone Hightower automatically comes up as the next word...

If I were Brewster I would suit up Westbrook and let him play the 4th quarter at QB when we play Wisconsin next fall. You got to think we would be a lock to win.

This guy drives me nuts. Half the time I am screaming at him for taking out of control shots and then he single handedly wins games with tough drives and terrific foul shooting. I love his toughness (physical and mental) and I am glad he is on our team. Now lets beat Michigan and leave...

Yes, I wasted money to go to this game but at least I can share my thoughts from the game: - Our Starting lineup was dead. No energy, no movement, and terrible off the ball defense. - Paul Carter needs to get more minutes to start games and after halftime. He is one of the few guys on the team...

I'm going to the game tomorrow and was wondering if anyone has recommendations for where to park and a good place to grab a beer or 12 before the game?

I have only seen Illinois play a few times but I am wondering what thoughts are for our keys to victory. My thoughts on what I have seen from Illinois: We need to keep Davis's touches limited. He seems to be the one guy on their team who could really hurt us on the board because of his length...

First let me say, I'm a big fan of Al's and I think he is the player that makes this team go both offensively and defensively. With that said his play, like others on the team, has been subpar to say the least in the last 3 games. What continues to worry me is his turnovers have been way up...

I love Tubby as much as everyone else but it looked like he got out coached today. I just can't come up with any other explanation for why we continued to take outside shots and let the point of their 1-3-1 trap us 35 ft from the basket. I get it that it is a tough D to play against but we did...

I was at the Badger game this week and talked to some diehard sconnies. In talking with them they were impressed with our teams effort and athleticism. They had made a few trips up to the Barn and told a story of an almost mystical fan named Chris Cloud. Apparently this guy was some sort of...

Anyone else think the key to the game will be how well we defend Landry and Krabbenhoft and keep them off the glass? I personally think Hughes and Nolen are a push, Iverson/Sampson can match the Badgers' posts, and our guards should match up fairly well with Wisky. I really think Damian and...

This was my first game in person this season and I was less then enthused with our effort. I wish we wouldn't have started with Michigan St to start the Big Ten season but I think it my show some our new players how hard the best teams in the conference compete. Out of all the players I saw...
