per the U:
What's next for you after this year?
CD: Hopefully continue playing overseas professionally or the NBA.
JK: Next year I plan on working in the Phoenix area, yet my exact working plans aren't yet finalized.
DO: My goal after this year would be to continue playing basketball professionally. I also would like to finish my master's in cyber security.
ES: Hopefully play overseas or maybe even in the NBA G League. I'd love to get an agent and sign a contract and see where the game takes me and what God has planned for me. Definitely want to keep playing.
SS: Not sure yet, I haven't finalized anything quite yet.
What do you want to be remembered by when fans think of you?
EC: I just want fans to remember me as the guy who never gave up and always fell for the Maroon and Gold as much as he possibly could.
LL: Someone who plays hard every day and does anything he can to help his team win. Just gives everything he has every game.
ES: Someone that gave everything he had. Someone who left it all out there on the court, who valued winning every play want to be remembered as someone who never gave up.
SS: Someone that always worked hard. Someone who played as hard as he could when he got the opportunity to be on the court.
PW: I want people to remember me as someone who gave everything he had to the program. Played unselfishly and gave everything he had, down to the last second.
What advice do you have for future Gophers?
EC: Don't take this stuff for granted. It goes by very fast, maybe not in my case, but it goes by fast. You don't want to have any regrets so just leave it all out there every night that you play and represent wearing Minnesota across your chest.
CD: The standard of becoming a Golden Gopher starts when you're willing to play for the name on the front of the jersey.
LL: Take it all in and take advantage of every opportunity you have. It goes by fast. Always believe in yourself. When times get tough, never give up. Your career is a long career and things can turn around in a heartbeat. That's what happened to me. Just keep believing in yourself when times get tough and never give up.
JK: Put your best foot forward every day and enjoy the process of college, because it will be over before you know it.
DO: My advice to any future Gopher would be to keep working hard. Take advantage of your resources and continue to grind and stack days. Whether things go your way or not, the only thing you can control is how hard you work.
ES: Give everything you have and trust the staff. These guys know what they are doing and have helped me a lot this year in adjusting to the Big Ten. Coach Johnson is a very relatable coach having played here so just always keep working, never let anyone out work you and trust the staff.
PW: Be in the moment. Don't take any rep, any weight room lift, any day for granted. Just have fun with it.
