Per Souhan:
As with Lindsay Whalen and the women's program, when you hire an inexperienced coach primarily because of their potential recruiting prowess, you have no choice but to wait for results.
Whalen is in her fifth season, and the talent has arrived. She's starting four freshmen and a sophomore, including a future star in Mara Braun. Whalen is making obvious progress.
The wait for Evans and Christie could feel long as a Minnesota winter, but Johnson should be viewed similarly. He was hired to recruit, and his best recruits will arrive next season.
Until Evans and Christie arrive, fans may find themselves glancing at their watches, or calendars, during games.
Go Gophers!!

Gophers' bad night in loss to Michigan sets an ominous tone early in the season
Gophers will have to wait until next season to be competitive in the Big Ten when two highly touted recruits arrive.
