    Cooper and Battle

    So, I’m still unclear how Cooper and Battle (both 2-time transfers) expect to be eligible to play next year. Anyone have an idea?

    Bellarmine beat Louisville

    Wednesday night I stumbled on Louisville hosting cross-town little brother Bellarmine (never heard of them). Bellarmine led by 10 at half and most of the way through the second half until a furious Louisville rally closed it to one before time ran out. Small Catholic university taking down the...

    The local media stinks (nevermind).

    Gotta love that the Minneapolis Star Tribune, in its sports section bowl recap, omitted the Guarantee Rate Bowl.

    Beating ranked teams

    If MSU continues to struggle and ends up unranked, do we still get credit for beating a top 20 team, or whatever MSU is ranked at the end of the year?

    Who would you prefer to face?

    If we get in as s 10 seed, who would you prefer to meet as the 7 seed (from Bracket Matrix current list)? 7 Cincinnati 7 Wofford 7 Iowa State 7 Louisville Or consider a couple low 6s and high 8s (if teams get shifted a line): 6 Villanova 6 Buffalo 8 Central Florida 8 VCU

    Value of beating a ranked team

    If WI slides into a bad season, would we benefit from beating them when they were ranked #22 or would that win be seen through the lens of how they finished the year? Or, looked at from the other side, did the teams that beat the Gophers early in the season when we were ranked during the Tubby...

    Is there a glossary of Fleckisms?

    I read this forum every day, but I still don’t understand all of the acronyms or terms that Coach uses. I mean, I’m happy for the players getting recognized, but what the hell is a nekton?

    Macura and Long Sleeves

    Had a laugh watching Zags & Xmen coming up with reasons why Macura wears long sleeves. 1) he has bad circulation and the gym is too cold for him 2) he's an excessively sweaty and it keeps his hands from getting slippery 3) he has bad eczema 4) he has an array of obscene tattoos that can't be...

    Shorts too long

    I have to admit up front that, while I don't want to go back to the short shorts of the 70s, I'm not a fan of the blousy bermudas that pass for uniform shorts these days. I just watched the recording of the LIU game and the shorts are now so long that half the team has to roll the waistband over...

    Jarvis on the roster

    I see Jarvis Johnson is on the roster. Was he last year (honestly can't remember), or does this mean his status has changed? I just can't give up all hope that a 4-star recruit in an area if need might still find his way to the court.

    We are a dream job.

    At least for Coyle. Nice to be on the receiving end of a "Lou Holtz move" this time.

    Would you want a "one and done" player?

    Tyus or Vaughn would have certainly contributed on the floor last year, but would we be in a better place as a program right now? Humphries wasn't enough to help Monson build for long-term success. Are we better off recruiting 3-4 star players and not 5-stars? With where our program is at, I...

    What we need

    Is a couple of high-profile commitments. Badly. This board is getting stale, and we need something exciting to discuss.

    What is our identity on offense?

    We're not a post-up team (Mo is our best and he's not great). We run a lot of 3-point line pick and roll with our centers (the two slowest guys who are unable to finish if they get the ball on the move). We shoot a lot of threes but we rarely look like we ended up with a shot we tried to...

    Could Dre Mathieu...

    Gophers were truly golden today

    The didn't have to deal with the dreaded curse of the white home uniforms. Great to see them in gold. Let's wear them every time. Rock the barn.

    Question for System Admin

    Has anyone else complained about the message board behavior? Since last weekend I have had problems clicking on posts or links in the message board windows. Once the rotating ad just below the forum breadcrumb line loads the background flips to white (still showing content) and none of the posts...
