per Sid:

Led by senior Austin Hollins, the team in Richard Pitino’s first season exceeded all reasonable expectations.

Yes, this was a tremendous finishing touch on a great and surprising season as the Gophers defeated SMU 65-63 to win the NIT. The way the team played in the tournament was a real credit to Gophers coach Richard Pitino and his staff.

Pitino now has a full season to recruit, plus having three scholarships available and only three seniors graduating in Austin Hollins, Maverick Ahanmisi and Smith. If Pitino can recruit like he can coach, the Gophers could be a contender next year.
