Quality not quantity.Four people in my row now.

Progress!!!I think we can guarantee we won't finish 306th in FT % this year.
What this game lacked was the announcing crew of Tony and his girlfriend on the Big+. I need a good laugh and that crew was a special bunch.
Seems good on D and is a good rebounder.Carrington just isn't impressive to me. Good rebounder.
That was a really bad team
A good free shooting team will win close games.83.3% free throw shooting tho!
Don't worry. I'm sure you'll see it again from other posters during other games.Funny thing is I checked at the time and we were shooting over 45%.
This was a good game for the Gophers to have. They struggled with making shots, but they locked in on the defensive end and won. We will have these kinds of games. This is a good win.
Let the negative Neddy's commence to bitch.
I didn’t think they were bad, but what do I know? Happy for the win. Turned it over too much at times. Shot weakly behind arc overall. There is a LOT of good players on some of these teams. Man, I’m just happy to grab a win after the other night.A win is a win. USC Upstate is a little better than I thought and we had moments of really bad basketball. That said, we win by 14 despite awful shooting.
CBJ’s rotations scare the sh!t out of me, but im hoping that is just experimenting with a lot of new players.
SCUP is terrible. They'll be 250+ on Kenpom by end of season. So many apologists on here. We are likely playing the lousiest teams in D1 trying to get some W's before we get smoked in conference playLost decisively to South Carolina on the road. Lost to Vanderbilt on the road by 7. Beat East Carolina on the road by 2. Not that bad.

You think im a CBJ apologist because I didn’t think USCUP was as bad as I thought they were going to be? Lol. Okay.SCUP is terrible. They'll be 250+ on Kenpom by end of season.

The B1G looks terrible though. I still think they'll win 5-6.That was a really bad team. There's not a lot of positives other than the 'W'. I'm actually more convinced that we might only win a couple Big Ten games this year
I agree, nice to win with such a terrible 3pt shooting day. They have depth this year which should help them in the B1G. They won't run out of gas like they did last year. Cut down on turnovers, get more aggressive on defense, reduce the bad shooting days and they shouldn't be that bad.I didn’t think they were bad, but what do I know? Happy for the win.

Worst post 2023....maybe 2024SCUP is terrible. They'll be 250+ on Kenpom by end of season. So many apologists on here. We are likely playing the lousiest teams in D1 trying to get some W's before we get smoked in conference play
The fans were awake. Someone finally woke up the team and that was Fox.Someone woke up the fan - or should I say fans? I'm not sure.
We just played a school that no one had ever heard of in front of ~1000 people. We were up by 5 at the final tv timeout with ~3:30 to play. Who is this for? The fans? The players? The potential recruits? I'm a former season ticket holder who struggles to even watch this product. I can imagine a potential recruit watching this shit and saying, yep that looks like a great program.Worst post 2023....maybe 2024

Or Fox evenPayne needs to start immediately for Ihnen. It's absurd he's not.
Well, well, well. If it isn’t the guy who didn’t post in this thread during the game.Gophers played better than you post.
So don't watch...simple solutionWe just played a school that no one had ever heard of in front of ~1000 people. We were up by 5 at the final tv timeout with ~3:30 to play. Who is this for? The fans?

There is no motion in our offense. None. Right now it depends on how well we shoot threes. Entry passes are difficult because of the lack of movement.A win is a win. USC Upstate is a little better than I thought and we had moments of really bad basketball. That said, we win by 14 despite awful shooting.

Does it surprise you that he never goes zone? Just a change of pace occasionally.There is no motion in our offense. None. Right now it depends on how well we shoot threes. Entry passes are difficult because of the lack of movement.
We have some talent but there is no alpha dog, no guy who puts the team on his back when the chips are down. The talent is pretty level with the better athletes being young except for Hawkins who is a terrific athlete, just real small.
On defense we are so easy to drive to the hoop on.
Just got back from the game, not always pretty but a win is a win!
