    Shooter: It still looks as if Ben Johnson, 44, who is taking the year off since his firing last year, will end up as an NBA assistant next year.

    I was amazed by the report listing the numerous assistant coaches, but somehow missed a mention of the actual HC (MN native Sean Sweeney).

    Shooter: A little birdie says Nolan Groves is getting $300,000 to join the Gophers from Texas Tech for his sophomore season.

    Lot's of meaningless speculation here. Does it really matter what TT may have paid him to not play much as a Freshman? The guy is signed and enrolled to play here this coming season. Doesn't really mater how much he is being paid now.

    Medved: I may be unpopular by saying this, but I feel like at some point we’re going to have to get to some sort of collectively bargained model.

    The genie is out of the bottle with NCAA basically letting an "anything goes" policy and washing their hands of any responsibility with a goal of not getting sued. What we have now should result in reparations paid to SMU for enforcing the Death Penalty for the "transgressions" which are...

    CBB Money Ball is to have a system, then sign, develop and retain guys. Don't overspend on filling holes via the portal. no different than NFL and Free Agency.

    RandBall: As transfer portals close, Gophers basketball is thriving

    It was a low bar to clear before Niko, there was the annual CBJ dumpster dive into the portal to sign guys we never heard of and nobody else wanted (except Dawson G). Niko is signing guys from P4 schools, 2 from a National Champ team and another from Texas Tech, who is spending like they are...

    It's the NCAA, they can screw up a 1 car parade. Last year they geniuses and opened the portal before the tournament was done, creating all sorts of speculation for teams still playing. at least this year they pushed it to after the season was done. The long duration is so nobody can sue them...

    exactly. it's easy to blame money grab, but I imagine many players see the writing on the wall during end of season discussion with coach who tells them all the things they need to work on to keep their spot, that they have a new hot-shot recruit coming that will take their spot, or how they...

    Carrington should get an extra year based on mental anguish/suffering being stuck playing on a team with a clueless coach.

    Frickin' UNC. they could afford to wait and get anyone they wanted. more likely the AD (and fanbase) didn't want to enter portal season without a coach and watch the entire roster exit. Look for a new coach (again) within 2yrs
