    ESPN: Effort to unionize college athletes hits stumbling block

    The trophy can go right next to all of our Vikings Super bowl trophies!

    Shooter: And word in coaching circles is that Tom Crean would love to have the Minnesota job.

    I think it’s a completely different era and would take Crean in a heartbeat. I think NIL plays to his strengths. On the Edwards part, superstar NBA players don’t always equate to winning in College, especially when they’re as young as Edwards was.

    After blowing a 10-0 start, then a 6 point lead with 1:45 left in OT… Drake with the Dagger to beat K State!

    Besides the Gophers who do you cheer for?

    Come cheer for the undefeated Drake Bulldogs! We got a previous head coach from D2 with pretty much all his former players trying to prove recruiting stars don’t count for much when the you take the court!

    I thought we were the Deepest team we have been?

    To be fair, I believe the “depth” showed that we were able to remain competitive (I know that doesn’t mean much). It still didn’t overcome the late game coaching blunders for example. In years past (as I actually expected coming into the weekend), we would have been blown out if our 2nd best...

    Hear me out.

    Our guys’ text chat just had someone mention that ALL Minnesota teams won yesterday! I politely reminded him that the Gophers Men’s team did not win. That’s how irrelevant we’ve become.

    Hear me out.

    Create a petition and have as many of us sign it indicating we want a head coach with experience winning as a head coach at other programs. Enough emails might be meaningful, but probably harder to quantify.

    Best time to send Ben packing?

    I was just about to ask if another Ben from our neighbors in Iowa would consider coming across the border! Amazing how successful coaches at other levels can come in with an empty cupboard and produce immediate results. It’s not like he brought in a ton of big names or anything either...

    Stop shooting 3s, take it to the rack and I’m more than ok if he can be a defensive stopper

    ***OFFICIAL CLEVELAND STATE AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    The one blessing in disguise from all the early injuries has certainly been key minutes for Asuma early in season. Hopefully he can develop enough to start at the #1 and allow Mitchell to go back to his more natural #2. Then we can really get creative with the 3 and 5 spots around Garcia...

    ***OFFICIAL YALE AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Hey it was all you! Gotta watch more games clearly. I don’t mind our big men (obviously Dawson is Dawson), but boy without Mitchell we go on some droughts due to our lackluster guard play.

    ***OFFICIAL YALE AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Dude is a tank. I’m going to try to give this team some time to get healthy before I get too upset and throw in the towel on the season. Just can’t have any really bad losses. I know UNT was bad, but they’re still not as bad as we made it seem. I hope.

    ***OFFICIAL NORTH TEXAS AT MINNESOTA IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    Regardless if Garcia plays or not (sounds like he’ll be out there), this will be a close game. UNT is one of those teams you don’t want to play in the NCAAs when they make it. We’re at home so I say we pull it out late 67-61.

    Atin Wright was definitely fun to watch at Drake last season. He’ll get his 14-16 pretty much no matter what, but hopefully we can make him as inefficient as possible. Career avg. outside of freshman season - 14.5 & 16.7 (CSU Northridge), 14.1 (Drake), 16ppg this year.

    Might have been the dumbest fake punt call I've ever seen. 4th and 12! Pin them deep you fools!

    They’ve been driving me nuts today. I used to like him. Great voice, but maybe he just can’t see as well anymore I swear. First down! Oh wait I mean two yard sack there on 3rd and 8. Yowza.
