Give Pitino another extension for winning two games in a row

Conference tournament cancelled

Gophers can proudly say the finished the conference tournament with a win

"only a couple teams every year get to end with a win!" [&o]


Always hated that one.

The NIT "winners" brag ….. [&o]

Is he angling for court-side seats?

Pitino is confirmed to return for another year.

If Oturu leaves, Williams Arena is likely to be a morgue next year.

Better than a literal morgue.

With recruiting restrictions , no choice now. New coach would be totally screwed.

Two questions. Is there any question whatsoever that Oturu is leaving.
What recruiting restrictions. Are we talking travel restrictions imposed by Coronavirus or sanctions imposed against Minnesota?

Big 10 has clamped down; no recruit visits while everything is cancelled. I would guess some of that for coaches running around has been restricted as well.



Mr. Ed -> RE: Gopher Basketball (Mens) (3/16/2020 7:53:14 AM)

Here it is, in Coyle's statement:

We agree with the Big Ten's decision to cancel all athletic competitions through the end of the school year. We also support the conference's decision to suspend all on-campus and off-campus recruiting efforts for the foreseeable future.



Mr. Ed -> RE: Gopher Basketball (Mens) (3/16/2020 7:54:18 AM)

So not sanctions, but a conference mandate that they can't do any recruiting via the normal routes.

A new coach would have been totally screwed at this point.

Loyola Marymount 7-footer Mattias Markusson said the #Gophers were in constant contact with him. But it's still early in the process with his recruitment with several high-major programs showing interest.



Mr. Ed -> RE: Gopher Basketball (Mens) (3/23/2020 9:34:17 PM)

Oturu going to the draft.

Pitino can't recruit much locally, so it's time to get a transfer or 2. Whee!



Mr. Ed -> RE: Gopher Basketball (Mens) (3/30/2020 8:31:07 AM)

A grad transfer Pitino targeted going to Texas A & M

Shocking All these kids passing on an opportunity to play for such an offensive genius!?!

Most of the kids probably don’t know Rick Pitino, except he’s coach at Iona, and they go nowhere in the tournament too.

Kind of like Karen Housley running for senate on a platform of "I'm married to Phil Housley". Half of Minnesota said who the f*** is Phil Housley.

Yeah.

Pitino has minimal credibility at this point.

Either of them.

Dad can claim winning programs
But at what cost?

Younger has little to tout.



Mr. Ed -> RE: Gopher Basketball (Mens) (3/30/2020 9:27:57 PM)

Carr declares for the draft

Abandon ship!!



Karl Juhnke -> RE: Gopher Basketball (Mens) (3/31/2020 8:53:18 AM)

He’s going to maintain eligibility by not hiring an agent. He’s just testing the waters.

I can’t see him getting drafted. He had his moments but overall had a pretty blah season. Then again, Minnesota under Pitino is where point guards go to die. Maybe someone will see his wasted talent here and if not draft him at least sign him to a two way. And he’d probably take G League ball over languishing another year here. I know I would.



TJSweens -> RE: Gopher Basketball (Mens) (3/31/2020 9:10:11 AM)

I don't see him getting drafted, but it isn't the worst thing for him to try. This draft is a lot ... lot weaker than next year's.



Phil Riewer -> RE: Gopher Basketball (Mens) (3/31/2020 11:13:14 AM)

Carr and Oturo were the only 2 consistent guys on the team.....losing him would really hurt.



twinsfan -> RE: Gopher Basketball (Mens) (3/31/2020 12:34:56 PM)

Carr might get drafted late in the 2nd round.
