NBA values potential over production, hard to say


Weak draft.

Loss for gophers for sure

Mocks are all over the board on Oturu. I've seen him as high as 8th and as low as an early 2nd rounder. Would be cool to see a Gopher get picked in the first round for the first time since Humphries. Plus Humphries is a dumbass anyways. Lol.

Gopher Carr has declared, but didn't hire an agent. I would be surprised if he's not back with MN next year

if he's gone, MN is screwed. Instead of finishing 12th, theyll be 13th or 14th

If he leaves we finish last. Our only hope is that Nebraska finishes worst. But their roster is gonna be completed different.

No word yet out of Illinois concerning Ayo Dosunmu. If he returns, they will be awesome.

We've never had any depth whatsoever with him. Whether that lack of recruiting or development, I don't know, but either way it's bad. I don't think it's a coincidence why we choked away so many games, all our important guys were being asked to play basically the entire game. Losing 3 guys early in two years would be especially hard(of Carr does leave)

I see we made the final 5 of the Wichita State transfer, but he averaged like 4 points and 3 rebounds. Hell he might be worse than Demir. We're going to have to rely on a bunch of role players next year, and that scares me.

He did pick up a much needed big from Drake. He's considered one of the top transfers available. Didn't hurt his uncle is on our staff

Yeah crazy how much can change in a couple days. I think when I said what I said Robbins hadn't even announced he was transferring yet. I'm hoping the the Wichita guy doesn't come now. Robbins was a big pick up.

Probably means getting Christopher is a lock now. I think they needed to free up a scholarship to get him. Could be wrong though.

Becoming common to see this now, guys forgoing their senior to play on what they think will be a shot at winning ... which is more or less a good thing.

I don't know if it's at all realistic but Creighton should go hard after him. With him and their backcourt, they are in serious busniness.

Pretty sure they are in line to already have a pretty decent front court with the guy incoming and Epperson coming back.

Haarms can come play backup C on IC. Then we can redshirt one of the incoming freshman. Backup to Garza is about the only depth piece missing

Epperson is probably better than what they had last year but the freshman is a ?, and Haarms would be a huge upgrade.

Haarms is an awesome piece with a good backcourt. Creighton actually reminds me of that Purdue team with Edwards and Cline.

But the truth is most any team in the country could use him, where he goes is anybody's guess.

Lol, definitely not going to another B1G team to sit behind someone else...

Yeah but if he wants to win he could go to teams like Gonzaga and Creighton, who imo are better and have more PT available lol
