[Bad Gopher]

Woo hoo!!!

 

[GoldenMAV30266]

Gimme alllll the big skilled forwards plz

 

[Word]

Was he injured most of the year? Says he played 4 games?

 

[UpAndUnder43]

I assume he got injured? ESPN lists him as playing 4 games.

 

[TheRealUncleRico]

Love it! Keep up the momentum boys!!!!

 

[GopherGold01]

Welcome home.

 

[studentgopher94]

Keep building!

Outstanding. The more talent we get, the more likely it is we can attract one star to come on board. Players want the money, but they also want to believe they can have a chance to win. Now get Kyan Evans and we have 4 nice pieces of a winning puzzle! Congrats to coach Niko and welcome to BJ Omot!!

 

[TheRealUncleRico]

Correct. All I could find was an undisclosed upper body injury that sidelined him for the season after 4 games

 

[kg21]

We now have 5 players!

Play Ball

First Team All-Summit League in 2023-24. Was really skinny then, would imagine he's filled out some?

 

[golf]

His sophomore season und was first team all conference
That season was 28% from three and 70% from the line. 4.1 rebds per game.
16.7 ppg.

Such is the current state of college basketball - Omot is on his third school in 4 years and the CSU kid is on school three in 3 years. Not complaining about the commits, just an observation.

Awesome! I wonder if this will affect the potential of getting Heide but there is plenty of playing time for all 3 forwards if Heide wants to come here.

1) Asuma
2) Evans?
3) BJ Omot
4) JCJ
5) ?

 

[SelectionSunday]

The "home-town" pull might not be that strong for Heide.

Pretty sure his family no longer lives in Minnesota. I think they might be in Arizona now?

I think he looks to add 2 more forwards, 2 guards and a prototypical 5.

Omot can be a 3/4, hopefully they add a forward that’s 6’9 or bigger to be a 4/5 as well, if they want to go small and spread the floor.

Bama I believe. I do think there was some mutual interest but not sure how this would affect that.

Just stay out of foul trouble.

 

[howeda7]

What position will he play? 3/4/5?

 

[Border Gopher]

Just stay out of foul trouble.

You can play Rich Pitino teams with four players

Thanks.

 

[Beerculees]

3/4. Medved likes position-less ball.

Just stay out of foul trouble.

Let's play Indiana tomorrow night.

It would be 5 on 1

We may have a shot!

I can't believe Richie didn't have a set of players for 5-on-3. Four corners and post-up should have done it.

 

[JZABR]

From a Golden Bear to a Golden Gopher!

If it was at assembly hall, we'd foul out and have to forfeit.

 

[Roland Brooks]

It would be 5 on 4 because the refs always hate us…..
