Will any of Ben's recruits still play at MN?

I liked the big from Cali

I haven't seen them on the decommitted list yet so I guess there is a chance.

 

[Spottedmuskie]

Sure hope so

 

[Bad Gopher]

I'm seeing this as a good sign, and nobody can talk me out of it. (I'm counting ALL of Ben's recruits, yes.)

 

[JZABR]

Hope so. Ross, by some sites, is a four star recruit and incredibly athletic. Jefferson looks legit. Shinholster looks like a project, but a really good defender. When was the last time we had a really athletic wing???

Besides Asuma, those recruits better hope they make the cut! In all seriousness, coach Medved needs to ensure he gets the kind of guys that fit his system and his style. The days of just hope we can get anybody with talent or from Minnesota that might be willing to play here ends today. It’s Niko time!

News report on WCCO made it sound like Thorson has been working for Medved for since he was retained. They been working the portal phones.

WCCO digging deep… pretty obvious

 

[Spaulding!No!]

They fired Ben but kept Thorson? That friendship might have some damage.

Why, Thorson was an assistant at CS before coming to the Gophers.

Keeping Thorson will turn out to be a shrewd move. It will seem obvious in hindsight.

Ben and Dave remain close.

Ben will have to wipe his tears with the $100s from his contract. $8 million for a few years of his life seems like a bargain if you ask me…

I wouldn’t be surprised if Ben and Niko were friends too. I’m speculating a bit but, I think They’ve known one another for close to 30 years.
