per Marcus:
Not Kris Humphries. Not Rick Rickert. Not Joel Przybilla.
Some of the best freshman post players in University of Minnesota history never grabbed more rebounds in a game than Jordan Murphy in his last outing, 18 in a victory over Chicago State.
What's surprising about the 6-foot-6, 230-pound Murphy is that he doesn't even start for Gophers coach Richard Pitino, who says his young rebounding prodigy has a long way to go to reach his potential.
That should be a scary thought for Big Ten opponents.
"I think he's doing a lot of really good things that have nothing to do with coaching," Pitino said. "He's getting 18 rebounds, and I don't think he's necessarily doing it the right way. I think he's just doing it on talent alone. He's just scratching the surface."
