per the Daily:

The expectations for the Gophers men’s basketball team are lower than they were a season ago, but they’ve only been raised for sophomore Nate Mason.

Head coach Richard Pitino expressed plenty of confidence in the 6-foot-1 guard last Wednesday.

“I think that Nate has the ability to be one of the better guards [in the Big Ten] when it’s all said and done,” Pitino said.

Mason played every game last year for the Gophers, starting eight his freshman season.

Now, he’ll be counted on to make an impact in the starting lineup and live up to his head coach’s words.

“[Pitino’s confidence] feels great, but it’s on me to make that come true,” Mason said.
