Are we sure they would win many if any conference games, in the Horizon league. Even the Iron 5 team had admirable and redeeming qualities. This Gopher 2024 Mens basketball team talent wise, would have trouble winning MiAC games. The time to move on from Johnson as head coach should be now, or soon before anymore damage can be done.This team is at best a 3rd place Horizon League team.
And that was against bad teams. Now 10 points behind everybody in defensive efficiency.The lack of turnovers and getting back on D are good things, but pace is really irrelevant to how good a defense (or offense) you are. The better question is about defensive efficiency - how many points do you give up on each possession?
On barttorvik, MN is 15th in the conference on that stat this morning.
Not sure how you sorted this - USC is still a worse defense. Doesn't change the thesis, though.And that was against bad teams. Now 10 points behind everybody in defensive efficiency.

Ya, I was looking at just the two conference games because our non conference is so weak.Not sure how you sorted this - USC is still a worse defense. Doesn't change the thesis, though.
