  1. It has to be in between the ears... maybe the coaches could toss toss it on film to see if there is something wrong with their form but I guess at this point its on the players to figure it out. You could easily be 3-1 if you make your free throws. Getting to the line is huge but cant miss the give-me's.
  2. I think you will see him potentially go after some guys in the 6'8-6'10 range, think guys like Baylor always has--- not back to the basket type guys, more athletic/lanky bigs who can run the court. He is looking for all his guys to rebound. That being said, the french kid will be a guy who will play much bigger than his height.
  3. First Burrow*, now they want to take this from us.... Those bastards. *I am aware we never were in for Burrow.
  4. At this point, I think we need to give the guys consistency. New DC every year or two is hurting our ability to grow. I dont know if Chinander is the best but at this point, I want to hold on for a bit to see if one voice for more than 16 months can help the team be better.
  5. ITS NOT A PYRAMID SCHEME, ITS A MULTILEVEL MARKETING BUSINESS
  6. They are trying to make me create a "free" account.... NOT HAPPENING NY TIMES
  7. Not surprising. I am interested to see what they do future with it. Hook people in and then rate increase? Netflix is already losing money in how they do things but now some people might pick Disney+ over Netflix...
  8. The big thing I am seeing right now is great tempo, but with great speed comes more chance for errors. I only listened to the game on Saturday, but honestly it just feels like the guys arent executing at the moment. I thought we had a bit more talent than what we have seen but hard to forget these were all last minute additions. the team will blend... It wont happen this year, but I do believe this team will be fun in 3 years. Go fast and make your easy shots. I like some of the guys. Patience is hard at the moment.
  9. The first 5 minutes of the game they looked good. It sort of felt like the rolls just werent happening. Plenty of high percentage looks that just didnt drop. For me, it is still concerning how little we scored. For a team that is fast paced, that is pretty worrisome. It will take time for guys to find their roles. The flow wasnt good. From what I have heard, Banton could be a pretty big step up for us talent wise for next year. I am a bit concerned about our shooting. Outside of Kavas, it seems like we have a lot of inconsistent shooters but guys who arent scared to shoot. That is ok but we have little for rebounding. I trust Hoiberg will get it turned around and teams wont shoot as well from 3 as UC Riverside did.. they just couldnt miss for stretches.
  10. This would be a HUGE get... I think this one will go on for a while and a lot of other teams will be vying for him(already are). Are they allowed to do an official visit this far in advance?
  11. I know this is said jokingly, but if they vacated the wins, we wouldnt get credited with a win nor would it happen any time soon. That being said: GREAT WIN ON GAMEDAY FOR THE HUSKERS!
  12. November is a bit weird because the lakes are cold but not frozen but a lot of people go to cabins. Pro sports is another argument, so this time of year on a Saturday- Wild or Wolves. Tons of concerts/shows. Again, I dont really buy it if you truly are a fan but as someone who has lived in Lincoln, Omaha and Minneapolis, there are more things to do up here from outdoors to shows/concerts/sports.
  13. Exactly. I have heard plenty of Gopher fans exclaim "I am going to watch it on TV" like that is somehow some feat. You should always be watching your team on TV..
  14. I assume they will sell it out before the game starts but that stadium still wont be more than 90% full. No one up here really cares about the Gophers. Even with PJ Fleck and all his sayings and the teams success it isnt sustainable for that long unless the fans show up. I have never really understood it. 40K students and they cant get 5K to show up for a game. 3+ million in Twin Cities and cant get 45K for a game. I always hear the whole "MN has more things to do" but I just dont buy that argument. Its because people just dont care about the Gophers.
  15. I can see it now. Saban to Florida State.. Belicheck to Alabama. Coach K to the Patriots And Fred Hoiberg to Duke... Scott Frost then takes over the Basketball team as the new head coach and we bring back Pelini to coach football. 1+1 y'all.
  16. I dont really think you need your HC to be an ace recruiter. You have your guys out there pounding the pavement and then you bring the HC to close the deal. Tim Miles was a great face and someone you could drop into a living room to help close but he wasnt the guy starting/building the relationship. That is why some of these "ace" recruiters arent becoming HC. They are there to basically find, secure and "babysit" the talent. I think some can coach but that is why you have your Doc Sadlers to help coach them up when they walk in. That is how I have come to understand it.
  17. I knew it was another garbage "look everyone, how funny I think I am" posts. If it was real I would be pretty concerned at the future state of the program that a guy with major connections was giving up this fast. I dont want Frost to leave. Has he been underwhelming as a coach, yes... I also think it is super stupid to place bets on less than two years. The writing was on the walls with Mike Riley.. He had very little success across the board. Frost has some proven success. I am 100% frustrated with where things are at, but I also know that firing frost or hoping he would move on sets us WAY further back.
  18. My feeling on free throws is it should be something players work on in their free time or as a cool down. If you have a 2 hour team practice, that should be dedicated to plays and general coaching. Free throws should be after practice.
  19. I saw this and thought it was about Taylor Martinez and got super excited that we would have a little T-magic throwing the YOLO ball in 18 years. I am very disappointed.
