Why does he keep yapping about Gopher basketball?
It is my belief that there is a consistent and fundamental misunderstanding of trade value among general NBA fans. Most people will look at how many picks were dealt, without any other meaningful context, and dole out a label of over or underpay.

From: “Can’t wait to watch Grayson start and develop this year while we are the laughing stock of the Big 10.”

To: “How hard does Grayson have to work to get a second of playing time while we sit comfortably above middle of the pack?”

Who the hell is Cade Tyson and why was he a dawg at Belmont?

This forward depth is absolutely stacked, damnnnnn. We actually have shooters this year!!!

Dain Dainja, come home!!

Kendall Blue to Nebraska, I think that’s going to be a huge miss for the Gophers… And we’ll have to play against him…

Can’t believe I forgot to give my congrats to this team for an incredible season! This team is going places next year. Hoping for a solid forward or big out of the portal to really nail down the missing depth pieces.
ICYMI last night the Gopher women's basketball team won the WBIT Championship over Belmont and will hang a banner in Williams Arena.
Tori McKinney was named MVP after scoring a career high 26 points.

Next up....portal season and trying to find at least one piece to help this team in 2025-26
Minnesota Women’s Basketball: Gophers are WBIT Champions!
Minnesota defeated Belmont 75-63

I’m on the lookout for the Gophers to snag 2 guards and 2 centers from the portal now. That would be a solid team of 10. A high quality big should be the top priority.

Haven’t hopped on here in a minute, but I just want to praise Niko for his incredible snags so far. I was really worried about a regime change, but these transfers seem to be really high quality, with clear identities and roles. Bobby Durkin and BJ Omot are going to be incredible additions.

What are the odds the Gophers can land AJ Storr?

As Tori McKinney just said in her interview, "We're the second best champions out there!!"

No more than an hour after my last post, BJ Omot officially transferred to the Gophers. Big get for Niko! Let’s hope we can keep bringing these talented Minnesota kids back!

Bring them back home, Niko.

Woke up to find out Brennan Rigsby was in the portal. Big loss for the Gophers if they can’t get someone to replace him. He had a breakout final few weeks with this team. He’s going to go play amazing no matter where he goes!!

Amaya Battle with 35/5/10 on 76% TS???? What a game to miss, damn. Her and Grace put in a full 45 minutes in the OT win!!!

Gophers advancing to the semis!!

Wish I had ESPN+…

Late to the game but Medved getting Thorson, Asuma, and Grove to stay is huge. I can’t believe I’m hitting the hopium already… Can’t wait to get emotionally decimated again.

Seeing Payne drop 25/10, Hawkins and Ihnen are playing tonight and tomorrow, respectively. Mentally I am here. I miss this team man. They could’ve had something. This was a tourney team if we just invested a crumb into our program.

Why do we insist on the next Gopher coach being from Minnesota and will it be a primary factor for Mark Coyle?

Does the next Gopher coach need to be from Minnesota?
Why does every coaching search have to start (and end) with the person being from or related to Minnesota?

I think the biggest thing we can ask from Mark Coyle is to bring in a coach who wears suits again. Who doesn’t love a coach who wears suits?
