[NYtoWItoMN]

 

[Mountaineer Gopher]

Mel Northway????

 

[tikited]

Paul VanDenEide

 

[Roland Brooks]

Ernie Z…

 

[stocker08]

A) This would be an awesome get for the program. Johnson has arguably been bringing in some of the highest end talent that the team has had since early in the Tubby Smith era.

B) Gaston Diedhiou

 

[short ornery norwegian]

Lingenfelter? Played 2 years, I believe, before transferring to South Dakota, and in his last year here, 77-78, he averaged 3.5 points and 2.8 rebounds per game.

just a guess, but maybe he was thinking of Mark Landsberger.
played one year at MN - transferred after Musselman left. finished his college career at Arizona State.
played in the NBA with the Bulls, Lakers and Hawks.
once had 29 rebounds in an NBA game while playing with the Bulls.

I haven't seen Elliot Elliason or Colton Iverson mentioned

You are right, sir, you haven’t.

 

[coolhandgopher]

Kyle Sanden and Kevin Loge would like their due.

 

[Otis]

Um ... Randy Breuer?

Yeah, i misspelled his name again! Not Jim Brewer but Randy Breuer.

And now people start adding shorter players that i purposely excluded. And adding tall players not worth the scholarship spot they took.

Why don’t you just add Royce White?

And stop cutting down Winter and Lingenfelter, they both played in the NBA. Did you?

Plus Lingenfelter is a defender against Dr. J”s ultimate reverse layup! So he’s got a stake in legend.

 

[Roland Brooks]

Cookie Holmes

 

[MonikerSchmoniker45]

Spencer Tollackson

 

[Otis]

Olberding

He was what? 6’8”? Not a big.
Might as well add Murphy and Joey King.

However, Jim Brewer played like a very big man. One of about a dozen on my all-time favorite five Gophers.

[BleedGopher]

I haven't seen Elliot Elliason or Colton Iverson mentioned

But have you ever seen the two in the same place at the same time?!

Go Gophers!!

You are right, sir, you haven’t.

Not really a big though, more of a three or stretch four, not a great shooter but he was so good around the basket and the open court.
