Go Gophers!!

 

[GoodasGold]

Gosh!!

 

[Bob_Loblaw]

He probably could have gotten Jalen Suggs too.

 

[Spaulding!No!]

Timing is odd. Doogie is doing this stuff on purpose. Not helpful.

 

[GopherJack]

 

[Zeppelin Gopher]

Chet is starting at center for the Thunder.

Mitchell saying he would've played him at the 3....goes to show how absurd his candidacy was at the time

[Bad Gopher]

Sam's a good dude and a good coach and would've had success here, I believe, but you do have to take this Chet stuff with a grain of salt.

 

[GopherBlood777]

At the very least, we would probably be getting way better press clippings from Sam. The guy has stones for making those claims publicly.

 

[howeda7]

Sure thing, Sam.

 

[Bobek]

Coulda woulda shoulda! We will never know will we?

 

[jamiche]

I think Sam would have gotten LeBron to leave the NBA and enroll at the U. LeBron regrets that he never got to experience campus life.

 

[Frink]

One of my favorite Timberwolves and I think a pretty good guy. Nevertheless this makes me question whether he has concussion issues.

 

[TruthSeeker]

Doogie has turned on his boy Ben Johnson.

Is he a rat jumping ship, or did Johnson do something to Doogie?

 

[Some guy]

I also could’ve gotten Chet to MN

 

[CentralGopher]

Now if he could have gotten him to stay in MN that would have been something

 

[EasyThere Pilgrim]

So Mitchell could have funneled $2M to Chet ?

 

[EasyThere Pilgrim]

I also could’ve gotten Chet to MN

Me too. If I chose to go all-out and come-up with $2M.

 

[SelectionSunday]

Doogie is a twerp.

 

[Bad Gopher]

I also could’ve gotten Chet to MN

Me, too: Google Maps!

Imagine Mitchell is trying to set the stage if/when the opportunity presents itself. (Didn’t listen to it, so don’t know the context)

 

[50PoundHead]

And after he got Chet to enroll at the U, Mitchell would have devoted his time to curing cancer and establishing world peace and be the first person to ever win two Nobel Prizes in one year.

 

[TwistingMyMelon]

Now if he could have gotten him to stay in MN that would have been something

Exactly! Even if some other coach would have been able to get him here, he would have been gone after one year.

"Doogie" is twisted. Seems to like to take calculated shots at the U.

Also, why would a grown man go by a childish childhood nickname?

 

[Ewert86PC]

If I was seven inches taller, I would have walked on to the basketball team.

 

[stemar]

Maybe he means Chet "Mr. Guitar" Atkins?

 

[TwistingMyMelon]

Maybe he means Chet "Mr. Guitar" Atkins?

That would have been the biggest recruiting feat of all time considering that he died in 2001.

 

[howeda7]

Imagine Mitchell is trying to set the stage if/when the opportunity presents itself. (Didn’t listen to it, so don’t know the context)

He's 60 and hasn't coached since 2019. I don't think any college head coaching offers are coming his way.

 

[stocker08]

'The Scoop With Doogie'.....huh? Gotta be putting up big numbers.

Spoiler

I like Sam but what's the reason for this lame comment?
