    General (random) thoughts on the Tip-Off

    -thought the crowd control was good. People were forced to sit in 3/4 of the lower level and gave the event a more cohesive feel. Made the crowd look bigger, people were packed in and the event had more of a game feel than any other Midnight Madness that I remember since the Haskins/Dutcher...

    Got our season ticket renewal (not good, very bad)

    Lower Level seats are now considered "Preferred Seating". For each seat in 117 we will now have to fork out $1,600 per seat!!!!!! That is a $1,000 increase. It looks like the extra $1,000 per seat is not a one-time fee. That "fee" is paid so that we can have the privilege to pay the $600...

    How much would you fork out for a piece of the old Barn floor?

    http://blogs2.startribune.com/blogs/randball/2009/05/19/mid-day-talker-pieces-of-history-williams-arena-floor/?elr=KArksLckD8EQDUoaEyqyP4O:DW3ckUiD3aPc:_Yyc:aUUsZ I would pay $100 for a good-sized chunk. The sub-question posed by Michael Rand elicited some pretty funny responses. ("Kent...

    More talk of 12 teams in the Big Ten

    It is Paterno sounding the horn this time. He mentions teams in the northeast as possible candidates for inclusion. His comments were interesting regarding how the Big Ten is a "conference that's dominated by a couple of people". And that it would only take a little bit of change (get rid...

    Enjoy the Hate

    Now that the ship is starting to turn around and beating the Gophers is no longer a foregone conclusion, it seems like more and more "Haters" are turning up to talk smack on this board. It feels good, don't it? Maybe it will get to the point, in a few years, where we are sweeping the season...

    1989-90 (Melvin Newbern)

    In my house, Melvin Newbern was an object of love and of scorn. Sitting at the games, my Dad chimed in with the rest of crowd hollering at Melvin to "Get the ball up the court already!" Melvin had a tendency to walk the ball up the court and spend the first 10-12 seconds of the shot clock with...

    Half court offense

    During our offensive sets at the Barn I sense a frustration with the fan base when the Gophers let the shot clock slip down to 10 seconds or so. There are times the offense looks listless and there doesn't seem to be a purpose with the passes that are made. They seem content to hand the ball...

    Mustache or Moustache

    During the Purdue game I saw a hint or a threat of a mustache on the upper lip of T. Busch. RSIII sports a dapper stache as well. In my mind, if a gent has a mustache, he is a cop/plumber/coal worker, comes from a long line of mustachioed men, or sells various snake oils near the entrance to...

    End of the first half & the halftime show

    (1) How about that pass from Nolen to Carter for the flush right at the end of the first half? How many times have we squandered the final possession of the half and gone into the locker room flat? IT WAS PURE JOY to hear the Barn as loud as it was going into the halftime break. I could not...

    Damian Johnson

    Just thought we need to have a thread with his name as the lead. I didn't get to go to the game today, but it sounded like he had another great game. This guy rolls out of bed and gets 5 steals, 4 blocks and 5 assists. Would it be fair to say that he is the glue of the team?
