I am not sold on Indiana. I do like Johnson and Galloway. Their freshman is a stud. The rest of their team doesn’t do much for me. I know they nabbed Ware from Oregon who was a 5*, but he was benched in February. Certainly a lot of potential though.

Going to go with tiers. Tier 1: Purdue and MSU Tier 2: Wisconsin, Maryland, Illinois, Tier 3: Northwestern, Iowa, Indiana, Ohio St Tier 4: Rutgers, Minnesota, Michigan, penn st, Nebraska. I don’t really like the big ten this year. Felt like they lost a lot in the portal and didn’t bring much...

I wouldn’t say far worse. Have you seen who 247 has as the top prep in Minnesota for the 2022 class? It’s DJ Jefferson. I don’t think anyone locally would rate him higher Payne, Tre, Carrington, etc. He may have a higher ceiling than those 3 because he’s got good size and athletic ability for...

SS, what are your assumptions for the gopher roster? Mostly if Robbins gets a waiver to play.

Does Arkansas/Musselman reach out to every transfer? I think they're currently over on their scholarships which is why Moss had to decommit. I know that's off topic, but it's stunning to me to see them linked to so many transfers. I wonder if Pitino and company got word from the Ryan Wooldridge...

I must say I am a little surprised they aren't considering Fred Hoiberg, but will consider Fran and Iowa. Hoiberg loves to shoot the 3 ball and loves versatility in his players and I don't entirely feel like Fran has maximized the talent he has at Iowa.

Was just going to post this, but usually Mark Miller knows his stuff regarding Wisconsin recruiting. Don't think he would randomly speculate this so perhaps he has heard something. Just a thought, do we know if he's a grad transfer? I haven't seen it stated anywhere. Would you take him if he...

Per Ryan James, Danya Kingsby is in the process of setting up a visit date with Minnesota. Per Marcus Fuller, Payton Willis is currently visiting Minnesota. If these 2 are likely to join the Gophers this year, I would still like to see a 2/3 grad transfer. I am still holding out hope that Trey...

He's not signing with an agent so he can return to school, or grad transfer, if he wants to.

Really difficult to get an idea as to who the Gophers are targeting right now. Transfer commits can kind of pop out of nowhere if I remember correctly. I don't think we had any inclination that Reggie, Davonte, Matz or Lofton were going to commit at any moment. I do believe we knew Akeem was...

Huge blow for Rutgers. Probably won't get drafted, but he'll probably have a nice career overseas.

Listened to Ryan James recently and he made it seem like Dayton might be the biggest threat here because of their recent success in the tournament. I also believe they lose a lot of players after this year so he could get some immediate playing time. I really would be surprised if he ended up...

Per is twitter account @Foster_34 Its official im a Golden Gopher! Just committed to the university of Minnesota #gophernation #blessed

Per Ryan James @Ryan James: 6-ft-8 or 6-ft-10 Florida big (pending on where you read) Jordan Tribble gets Clemson, Ole Miss, LSU interest and Minnesota offer. I tried to look up some info on this guy and got the same thing Ryan did with different height listings and couldn't find any...

Per Ryan James https://twitter.com/RyanJamesMN/status/225387827259645953 Seems very similar to Wally Ellenson except less athletic and a better shooter. Thoughts?
