With the basket as big as the ocean, #19 Gophers crush Penn State
Posted on 11. Jan, 2009 by JF.
Maybe the ugliness in Iowa City on Thursday was worth it after all, because the Gophers appear to have gotten all the bad offense out of their system. Led by a pair of junior college transfers, the Gophers did not miss a three pointer and shot 62.5% from the floor including 9-9 three pointers to [...]

A win is a win is a win, and the Gophers won
Posted on 09. Jan, 2009 by JF.
It was slow, boring, brutal to watch, excruciatingly painful, unrecognizable as basketball since 1920, but it was a win. In a dreadfully stereotypical Big Ten game, the Gophers won 52-49 to improve to 14-1 and 2-1 in the Big Ten. In short, it was a game at Iowa. Its hard to believe that Iowa used [...]

Blowout caps Minnesota’s best start since 1948
Posted on 29. Dec, 2008 by JF.
Highlights from ESPN Highlights from BTN Did people care about strength of schedule in 1948? Is this Minnesota’s weakest non-conference schedule since 1948. I’m guessing the answer to both of those questions is no. Regardless of the Gophers’ non-conference opponents so far, they have started the season with twelve straight wins for the first time [...]

Gophers crush Eastern Washington, Carter hurt but should be ok
Posted on 28. Nov, 2008 by JF.
As I walked out of Williams Arena on Wednesday night, I was thinking my first paragraph of my game review would be spent trying to convince myself that the Gophers would be ok even if Paul Carter would miss several weeks. Fortunately, I won’t have to, as what looked like a very severe ankle injury [...]

Breathe easy, its only a sprain and Carter is day to day
Posted on 27. Nov, 2008 by JF.
With about 10 minutes left in their win over Eastern Washington, Minnesota’s season almost took a turn for the terrible. Ralph Sampson took a charge, fell back against Paul Cater’s ankle, and Carter hit the deck in agony. He was down for several minutes, and was eventually carried off the court, unable to put any [...]

What’s the matter with Devron?
Posted on 09. Nov, 2008 by JF.
Devron Bostick was supposed to be the player to put the Gophers over the top. He was the supposed to be instant offense, able to take over a game, or even a season. He was supposed to be the guy we always needed, and would be lucky to keep for more than 1 year. However, [...]
