    Gopher Uniforms

    I think the Gopher retro uniforms are the sleekest uniforms in college basketball. They are awesome. Beautiful.

    Shooter: Minnesota, conceptually, has considered either renovating Williams Arena or building a new arena in the parking lots north of arena

    I just read this whole thread, and I think it completely misses the point of what's really necessary, to be honest. The entire college landscape is changing rapidly. The "arms race" of facilities is going to be coming to a close, in my opinion. Now, does that mean we shouldn't look at Williams...

    [Dan Hope Twitter] According to Ohio State AD Gene Smith, the B1G will no longer schedule conference games more than a year in advance.

    One down side to having 10 conference games is its highly likely that with rare exceptions, the days of Big Ten non-conference road games would be a thing of the past. Each team would get five home conference games, and most schools rely on seven home games for revenue, so the likelihood of road...

    Stub & Herbs

    We had all of our tailgates at the East River Flats, and with the exception of not being able to park on the grass, it had the same feel as it always has. If you're bringing supplies you'll want to get there a little earlier than maybe you would have normally, but other than that, the Flats were...

    Confernce Realignment Chaos is Here!!!!!! (maybe ... probabbly not) (Rumor Texas and OK reach out to SEC about joining)

    Sorry, but the Big Ten has to go big here. And I mean Big. Revision the whole plan for a conference. You raid the Pac 12, for TV purposes. USC, UCLA, Washington, Oregon, Colorado, and Kansas to the conference. 20 teams. Minnesota goes West with the six teams mentioned along with the quadrangle...

    What I do know...

    Unlike Texas and Texas A&M, and unlike Nebraska and Kansas, and unlike Pittsburgh and West Virginia, I can all but guarantee that Minnesota and Wisconsin will be connected at the hip, and what one does, the other will follow. I don't think this is an issue, as both are extremely content in the...

    Iowa to discontinue four sports programs

    Iowa is dropping men's gymnastics, men's and women's swimming and diving, and men's tennis due to the costs associated with losing the fall football season. If we can play in the winter, some of this will be mitigated, but it's probably safe to say we should get used to this, as this is going to...

    Kirk Ciarocca taking OC job at Penn St

    Penn State is a pretty irregular foe for us for the short and medium term, as we only play them in 2022 (road) and 2025 (home). By 2025, he'll be 60, and probably moved on again. Outside of any potential B1G Championship match-ups, this is probably as harmless of a move within the conference as...

    Game ticket info

    It looks like maybe we'll be on the south side, from the seating chart on their website. I would guess 115-126 and 215-220 will be the Gopher sections.

    Patrick Reusse Turkey Award

    Boy, for a guy everybody seems to hate and nobody reads, there sure seems to be a lot of activity on here about it. That's why Ruesse is great. You don't have to like it. But you still end up reacting to it. That's his job. And your reactions allow him to be successful. Masterful.
