2025 Transfer Portal Watch

[GoldenMAV30266]

Yep, recruiting still happens during dead period. Just can’t meet face to face.

We’re gopher fans. Recruiting rarely happens until only scraps are left.

Must have had a bigger bag than the hometown Badgers

We’re the Twins of college football.

I can’t wait until we reach the tourney so we can cut payroll

Is the age of a Gopher freshman over?

 

[GoldenMAV30266]

I ended up watching his highlight reel after watching Reed Bailey. Wanted Bailey, but Durkin would be a good get too.

 

[leib0039]

Not panicking yet but seemed like a lot of movement this weekend. Going to need a little barrage of signings when the dead period ends here in a bit.

Another sophomore. I'm glad Medved is going after guys with a couple of years left. I am interested in who he will get as a true big man.

This kid has a crystal ball to MN from Travis Banham.

The next Tonje?

247 has this guy ranked higher than Evans for what it's worth.

Do we make a tradition of losing the home opener?

If we don’t schedule division 7 schools we probably would

Don't know if Gopher Crew knows anything or not, but......

Helloooooo, Bobby Durkin!

Good size with skill; I'll take it.

Gopher Crew has a high trust quotient.

I like the idea of a 6-7 guard. I hope he has enough quickness to compete.

I think he’s more of a 3/4.

Niko sure is loading up with that type of player.

Prolific shooter from Davidson-I’m down with that.

It's a certain kind of player indeed. We'll see what he has for hops and quickness. One way or another, the teams that advance in the tournament seem to be able to shoot over defenses.

I was curious how he and Crocker-Johnson compare to the prototype shooting small forward alumnus. Willie Burton was 6-8, 210, and shot 38 percent from behind a closer-in arc.

 

[RockChalk]

Having 4 ball handlers on the floor at all times is a good thing.

 

[Bob_Loblaw]

He is really a complete player. He rebounds really well for his size, had a 3:1 assist/TO ratio, shot the ball well and he has enough size to defend a couple positions.

This is a big get.

Crystal Ball from Travis Branham on 247 Sports for Bobby Durkin.

I wouldn't call 35% prolific, but its still very good. Better than anyone on our team that played major minutes besides Garcia.

Here's to hoping we get a couple guys out of the Enis/Evans/Lindsay/Miles/Keshawn Williams(?) bin. just load the floor with shooters that can slash and rebound.


I mentioned Williams because hes a CSU transfer. Wasn't asked to do much last year likely because he was buried behind Clifford, Lake and Evans. But looking back to his NIU stint, he can score

 

[Gophs24]

well lets hope gophers crew is dialed in on this one. looks like he would be a very solid signing!

70% of his shots are 3's.....so we know what hes on the court for!

also watching highlights some guys just know how to use screens without the ball in his hands, and hes one of them

Still desperately need a big body or two. Small ball works in lesser leagues and occasionally in bigger ones, but a complete team needs a force in the middle to make bunnies, get rebounds and keep others away from the basket.
