An increase in the "L" column
EMBRACE THE SUCK!!!!!
I agreed with "there's nothing to gain playing them" take initially but it's now to the point where all of the local sports media that barely pay attention to college basketball would predict a St. Thomas win and you actually have more to gain than to lose.
Ben just has such a loser's mentality. Worried about losing this, scared of this, we could never beat this team, etc.
Actually, he did say he’s afraid of playing UST. Like, directly
If he's worried about people chirping about this game, his comments are gasoline on a dumpster fire.
I’ll give you the t wolves and twins. As far as gopher sports go anyone that reads Minnpost couldn’t care less.
For the record, I'd like to see us play the Tommies every year, however, I strongly disagree that Ben's statements were embarrassing. He was honest, straight-forward and concise. I was pleasantly surprised he didn't avoid the question or speak in unintelligible platitudes as he tends to do.
I mean I'd rather play North Texas than UST. Bethune Cookman and Morgan State on the other hand I can see where you're coming from
I agree and agree with his statement. It is all about the NET for high major teams and it definitely makes sense to play teams that have similar styles to what you'll see in conference. Unfortunately his actions haven't backed up those words. Which is weird because Livingston put some good schedules from a net perspective to together under Pitino so it's clearly coming from above.
When it comes to the mantra "Go big or go home", Gopher Athletics never seem to leave their basement.
Fair enough, just get 'em on the schedule. It'd be a fun game every year.
He doesn't want to do that either.
Johnson or the fans that excuse/support his pussy scheduling?
Yes.
That would be so much fun. Perhaps our new coach will be receptive to the idea
