Damian Johnson out 4-6 weeks with hand injury
Posted on 21. Oct, 2008 by JF.
Not good…not good at all. Anyone still complaining about the weak nonconference schedule? Gophers forward Damian Johnson will miss 4 to 6 weeks with a broken left hand, according to Gophers spokesman Matt Slieter. Johnson broke the hand in practice Monday, Slieter said. That means Johnson could make his return as early as mid-November or [...]

Missing Links
Posted on 18. Jun, 2008 by JF.
Its summer, its Minnesota, regardless or the hail, the rain, the tornadoes, and inevitable mosquito induced mayhem, it is better to be outside than in front of a computer. Though I am barely able to muster enough anguish and regret, I do apologize for the lack of updates, though nothing newsworthy has really taken place. [...]

Was Maryland made to beat the Gophers?
Posted on 17. Mar, 2008 by JF.
Match-ups trump talent. Minnesota, on paper, was a much better team than Illinois. The Gophers beat teams teams that Illinois could not, won more games, had a much better season, and still lost three times to the Illini. They lost to UNLV and Florida State, but in all likelihood could have beaten teams that handled [...]

Blake or Devoe: Who takes the final shot next year?
Posted on 16. Mar, 2008 by JF.
Blake of course, right? But two options are better than one. Good video: horrible, typical, youtube audio. Bad video: better audio with no horrible music. Looks like Devoe can be clutch in a championship game too. And yes, the Gophers lost to Illinois for the 20th straight time. Not all that suprising, or worth writing [...]

Pat Forde on “The Shot”
Posted on 15. Mar, 2008 by JF.
Here. INDIANAPOLIS — Turns out Blake Hoffarber can make history standing up, too. The new undisputed Mr. Big Shot of March made himself a candidate for a second career ESPY late Friday night in Conseco Field House, at age 19. The Minnesota freshman won an ESPY in 2005 for hitting a game-tying shot from his [...]

The Hoffarber Miracle: Part 2
Posted on 14. Mar, 2008 by JF.
I’ve watched more Gopher basketball games than I can count, sitting in The Barn when it was all bench seats, squashed between people 10 times my size, trying to see through small gaps between the people in front of me, following the game more by sound than by sight, because when you are 5 years [...]

Gophers sqeak by Cat’s, face Hoosiers next
Posted on 13. Mar, 2008 by JF.
From what I saw of this afternoon’s win over Northwestern, the Gophers dominated. Lawrence Westbrook aggressively pushed the ball up the court, got to the free throw line, hit a plethora and hit a plethora of mid-range jumpers. Dan Coleman played solidly on both ends of the court and made his free throws. As a [...]

Game 1: Iowa vs. Michigan: Michigan Game 2: Illinois vs. Penn State: Illinois Game 3: Minnesota vs. Northwestern: Minnesota Game 4: Wisconsin vs Michigan: Wisconsin Game 5: Michigan State vs. Ohio State: Michigan State Game [...]

Gophers vs. Wildcats in the Big Ten Tournament
Posted on 12. Mar, 2008 by JF.
Post-season basketball is something that is supposed to be exciting, something to stay home from work or class, fake an illness, take a long lunch, leave early, or at the very least keep track of over the Internet. After a dismal season last year, Minnesota bailed enough water out of the bow of the ship [...]
