Liam...whatta trouble maker!

Liam...whatta trouble maker!

I was always saying that Liam dunks TOO hard.

After watching Minnesota, watching Indiana-UNC is like I'm fast forwarding through a recording.

The difference in speed is fucking ridiculous.

Lobos now 7-0 after tonight’s huge road win @ Saint Mary’s.

 

[UpAndUnder43]

Portland State routed Portland Bible 114-31. Portland Bible—which is a school of some sort—dressed 6 guys. All listed as “athlete”. After a 38-0 start it leveled off to a 63-9 halftime score. Bible’s 22 point second half including 5 straight points at one point allowed them to end with more points (31) than turnovers (25). Unfortunately for Gopher fans we can be envious of Bible shooting 75% on free throws.

With 5 players in double figures.

Mini-Mash shooting very well early for them. Good for Richard.

 

[Holy Man]

Mini-Mash shooting very well early for them. Good for Richard.

And shooting a lot I presume.

 

[UpAndUnder43]

And shooting a lot I presume.

He’s taking about 14 shots per game. 44.2% on field goals, 45% on 3s, 84% on free throws.

Battle, for comparison, is taking 14 shots per game and shooting 26%, 23% and 75%

Pitino gonna get New Mexico into the tournament as an at large this year...incredible.

He dipped into the transfer portal and has done really well there.

 

[GopherBlood777]

He dipped into the transfer portal and has done really well there.

His portal skills were never in doubt haha, he basically lived there the last couple of seasons since he couldn't recruit preps very consistently. He and Ben are basically polar opposites in that regard.

 

[Holy Man]

Texas pulling away from Creighton. Both teams clanking threes like crazy.

Carr looking like a complete point guard. If I heard correctly the seven footer from Creighton is hitting 80% from the field this season.

 

[Bad Gopher]

Utah will out-rebound you.

 

[stocker08]

Utah will out-rebound you.

I may have some crow to eat. Don't get Pac-12 Network...so all I can base this off is the box score.

 

[SelectionSunday]

Utah is hammering Arizona by 21 at the U8 timeout in the second half.

 

[SelectionSunday]

Purdue stomps Gonzaga. Cam Heide still hasn't played, redshirting?

Yes, he’s redshirting.

As the broadcasters said in the first half, this is a Craig Smith trademark game.

About to finish it off.

 

[Bad Gopher]

15-point win! I tuned in knowing they'd give them a game, but I did not expect this!

This is, of course, both thrilling and depressing. Watching his teams...it's a thing of beauty. That's a squad that knows what they're doing out there. And they have enough talent to beat a Final Four hopeful. If the Gophs pulled something like this off, I think I'd spontaneously combust.

And he'd have taken this job in a heartbeat.

 

[PhiloVance]

Wasn't Craig Smith considered as a candidate for Gophers?

 

[Holy Man]

And he'd have taken this job in a heartbeat.

Local recruiting would have suffered though.

 

[Bad Gopher]

And he'd have taken this job in a heartbeat.

He waited until this job was filled before he went with the Utes' offer. He would've been thrilled to coach here.

 

[Bad Gopher]

Local recruiting would have suffered though.

I guess this is when it becomes clear that this isn't a basketball program; it's an instrument of alumni torture.

 

[Spottedmuskie]

Madsen and Carlson have been putting up a lot better numbers than at their previous schools. Smith doing a good job

 

[Gopherfan84]

Lol Craig would’ve recruited fine locally. He’s in the Tim Miles tree and well thought of around here by coaches. I get your jab though
