per the Daily:

One is listed at 5-foot-9. The other is listed at 6-foot-10.

One is the smallest guy on the team. The other is the second-biggest.

Both were phenomenal Wednesday night in the Gophers’ 81-68 win over No. 9 Wisconsin.

Both stepped up in the wake of an ankle injury to All-Big Ten guard Andre Hollins on the first possession of the game.

And both DeAndre Mathieu and Mo Walker are a reflection of their head coach.

“We do morning individuals every day,” Eliason said. “I don’t think a lot of [teams] do that. … And then we come back and practice in the afternoon.”

Still, Pitino deferred the credit in his press conference.

“They deserve all the credit. Those guys. They made themselves into really good players,” he said.

That may be so, but Pitino has a little something to do it, too.

Ya feel me?

Go Gophers!!
 


This kid needs to stop with the "Ya feel me" gimmick. No respected writer finishes each column with a tag line.
 


Did Nadine post her after the game presser notes? (Maybe I just missed them somehow.)
