Congrats to Nate, this is awesome.
Next year is almost too good on paper to be true. It starts with having a legit back up, resulting in full optimization Nate. He will be among the most experienced guards in the country on a team that will be media darlings projected by some to win the conference and start year off in AP top 15. Nate Mason will likely be favorite to be Big Ten POTY(I'm assuming making him first ever Gopher to earn back to back first team Big Ten honors). If he's not first team again next year we can probably blame tragedy. Can't wait to see how much Nate's game elevates the play of Dupree, Jelly, Curry, Coffey, Fitzgerald and Harris next season. Murphy and Lynch will both be beasts and likely improve, but they mostly create their own offense andvwon't nearly benefit from Nate as the others.
