per Marcus:
Three things to watch:
HOT COFFEY –.Some people like their coffee hot. Others like it warm. Some like it cold. They call that tea in my book. The Gophers prefer their Coffey scorching, burning hot like sophomore Amir Coffey was in the first half of their 107-81 win against Niagara on Wednesday. The 6-foot-8 Hopkins product hit scored 17 of his 18 points in the first half. At one point he scored 15 points on 7-for-8 shooting during a 12-minute stretch when Minnesota faced a 10-point deficit. Coffey hit three three-pointers. He hit fall-away jumpers. He drove and tossed in a lefty layup off the glass. Everything he threw up seemed to go in. It was reminiscent of his 17-point first half last year when he dropped a career-high 30 points against St. John’s. The Red Storm led by 13 points that night in the first half, but Coffey fueled a 32-9 run to help Minnesota regain momentum for good. Coffey said Saturday that he typically tries to take over a game when his team needs it. But he usually picks and chooses when to be aggressive. Something tells me the Gophers are better off having their Coffey hot from the get go.
