Scoring more than 50 points but less than 60.

Kenpom has them ranked 36th on defense so not sure how they aren't "average" on D no matter what metric you use.

Idk how you can say they’re not at least decent defensively when they’ve yet to give up 65 points in a game and 44% is the highest shooting percentage they’ve given up all year. The metrics would back up they’re good there as well at least to this point

Raising the self esteem of low-major teams projected to finish in the bottom half of their conference.

 

[WoodburyTim]

Good question.

I’ve noticed that while they may not possess many of the skills or attributes of a successful basketball team, they do seem to be fairly well groomed as a whole.

I think often times in basketball, as well as the real world, maintaining a sharp and hygienic outer layer can make up for other deeper deficiencies.

Pissing off GopherHolers

Fooling Gopherholers.

Most here actually believe that there's still a chance in the future. They actually believe that the administration & Coyle want to win.

 

[UpAndUnder43]

I’m 3-0 betting their opponents to cover. That’s good for me.

 

[Ewert86PC]

Things they're good at? Um, dribbling?

I'm a little late with this it seems, but I was going to say "Compelling posters to bitch and vent".

The real question is; as you are venting or writing out your complaints about the program, do you get a temporary rush for getting that out for the world to see? That would actually be a positive!

Or, does the process of writing out your complaints and dissatisfaction just work you up even more and you feel worse? Which would beg another question; if it makes you feel worse, why do you do it?

Question:

If you are allowing fewer than 60 ppg, is it the other team's bad offense, or your good defense?

Perhaps you could provide an approved topic list?

Third option - you are playing at a super slow pace

Third option - you are playing at a super slow pace

But, you aren't allowing the other team to increase the pace. The Gophers aren't having a lot of open court turnovers, and they get back on defense not allowing many fastbreak points.
