PP; Gophers basketball: Mo Walker enjoying Canadian migration (2-28-14)

[Jon]

"Walker played on the Canadian junior national team with brothers Cory and Devoe Joseph. Devoe Joseph helped recruit Walker to Minnesota before he transferred to Oregon during his junior year; Cory was recruited by the Gophers but played for Texas.

"I still talk to Cory after pretty much every game," Walker said. "It's hard with Devoe because he's playing overseas now. Cory and Devoe are always going to be my family. My parents keep in touch with their parents. It's cool."

PP delivers the Gopher news...

Gophers basketball: Pitino says strength of the Big Ten makes his team NCAA tournament worthy
"“We’ve got nine losses in conference and everybody says we have a very good chance to go to the NCAA tournament,” Gophers coach Richard Pitino said Friday. “The reason why is Strength of Schedule. It’s not going to go down in this conference.”"

Gophers basketball: Buggs’ expanded role could continue with Osenieks uncertain to play at Michigan
"
It’s not fair to expect Charles Buggs to be a potential double-digit scorer just because of his 13-point performance in a win against Iowa this week.

But the Gophers will likely need the redshirt freshman to play more minutes moving forward.

Yeah, I've always gone to PP before the Trib for quality gopher stories.

This was a fun read. I agree with pg10, the Strib's Gopher beat is such a hack job I very often skip the articles entirely.

I visit Toronto periodically and they love basketball there. Toronto metro is as big as Chicago and more international. RP should be prospecting there regularly. Toronto metro also generated Stauskus.

And they should be used to snow already.
