yep.
The OP has outed himself as the “reliable source” regarding Andrew Rhode’s NIL dealSo, he leaves St Thomas during the season to come to the U to coach the last 4 conference games? Brilliant!!
I think you are correct. The athletic department believes he is doing this the right way. They might be right. My view of the program has started to change. I think that we are going to be very strong over the next few years if we can get enough NIL money to keep the guys together.I can almost promise we won't finish 2 and 14 this season.
But, I'm also not convinced if we only win 2.3,4,5, or 6 games the coach will be replaced.
Too many signs he has another year in his pocket.

I am certain it is true. It needs to get tamed down but I don't think NIL is going anywhere. The horse has left the barn. So I like the idea of trying to build a stable team and support the roster with competitive NIL money. I hope it works, as it certainly is against the current grain.You may want to read this article.

Citing burnout from NIL, transfer portal and non-stop recruiting, college basketball coaches make big changes
'We are all exhausted,' one coach told CBS Sports amid a crisis that's spooking many and prompting a movementwww.cbssports.com
A point I was trying to make is, even the best programs can't keep their teams together any longer with what's going on in college BBI am certain it is true. It needs to get tamed down but I don't think NIL is going anywhere. The horse has left the barn. So I like the idea of trying to build a stable team and support the roster with competitive NIL money.

You are correct. We are going to have to have the right combination of NIL and culture/relationships to keep our core. I hate this era of college buckets. So far Ben has had bad results but the kids he is bringing in have solid ability and character that I hope we can grow with. If we can be close on NIL and the players love the culture- we have a better shot.A point I was trying to make is, even the best programs can't keep their teams together any longer with what's going on in college BB
Too be fair much better than our preseason schedule (which is historically bad) and heck, at least he has a resume of winning basketball as a head coach...at any level.Hell, let’s go all out and get the Minnetonka head coach…
Give me a fckg break!
He goes 19-14 playing a schedule that is like our pre-season lineup and you want to pay him millions to coach the Gophers?????
Why would cream ourselves over it? I thought we were all secretly UST fans? Wouldn't this devastate us? Our secret rival will can a historically bad coach and take our coach.Bail right before the program you built gets an arena and experiences Big East glory? I don't see it. Although I'm sure some posters here cream themselves at the thought.
This.Neither Ben Johnson or Johnny Tauer should be coaching the Minnesota Gophers.
Wasn't talking about you Rob and associating me with things I've never said, like "everyone is secretly UST fans", is super douchey. If you don't like my posts you can ignore me.Why would cream ourselves over it? I thought we were all secretly UST fans? Wouldn't this devastate us?

I know this was just another failed attempt at being clever, but another swing and a miss.
Says the guy talking about grown men "creaming themselves".Wasn't talking about you Rob and associating me with things I've never said, like "everyone is secretly UST fans", is super douchey. If you don't like my posts you can ignore me.
Name two.Says the guy talking about grown men "creaming themselves".
I'm not seeking out your posts to respond, I opened the thread and you so-happened to make a bizarre post that didn't make sense.
People on this board are really touchy about UST basketball. They get annoyed when people discuss UST any different than they would Oral Roberts despite the fact that UST is 10 minutes from campus.
Most of the posters who think a bunch of grown men would ejaculate over hiring Tauer also believe that there is a contingent of UST loyalists hiding out on this board. If I made that "douchey" assumption, mea culpa. I didn't realize there was another group of people who thought people on this board worshipped UST basketball.
I found four in two minutes, including you. LOL. You're going to have to start doing your own research from hear on out.Name two.

Where is the copy of my post? If you had credibility you would have lost it there. Go on hating the Gophers. Had you gone to school there you might be a bit more loyal.I found four in two minutes, including you. LOL. You're going to have to start doing your own research from hear on out.
