per Marcus:

After his players clanked several shots to open Saturday’s Gophers basketball scrimmage, Richard Pitino could only smile and shake his head as a man shouted from the crowd behind him, “Have your guys practiced much?”

Frustration still exists from last season’s 8-23 record, but Pitino told fans after the 14-minute scrimmage that he was excited about what he has seen in the first month of practice.

With less than a month before the season opener Nov. 11 against Louisiana-Lafayette, the Gophers are trying to build confidence and chemistry quickly with so many new faces.
