[Win TWINS!!!]

Not sure if winning tonight was a good thing... might put us in the dreaded 8/9 spot. typical!

Oh, I don't know...give us the 8/9 in Virginia's region and we might get a gimmie against the 16 in the 2nd Round.

wasn't looking good with 4 minutes left.


First 36 minutes were maddening and type of play I've seen too often.

But wins a win, onto Purdue

Who we've played well both times.

 

[PnkPanther]

I'd prefer iowa

 

[Win TWINS!!!]

If the Gophers were even an average free throw shooting team...

 

[Win TWINS!!!]

That got ugly.... fast

 

[fredsdeadfriend]

Man, all you eternal skeptics make me sick.

beating Purdue LAST 2 TIMES, and beating a PSU team who had won 7 of it's last 10 games???

 

[Win TWINS!!!]

I said it at the beginning of the year... TURNOVERS.

Only 5 in the game today...

If this is their identity w/o Murphy, they're in trouble next year....

 

[Win TWINS!!!]

Mich St isn't even defending the 3, and I don't blame them...

No. Don't buy the BS the idiots at the GopherHole try to promote.

Because we are not JUST missing Murphy, we are also missing Stockman and Curry. Add both of them to the mix and things would be very different.

We may make Rutgers look good next season without some significant upgrades in the off-season. Maybe the first question that will have to be answered is if Pitino did enough to save his job. After all, Tubby got fired after a Round of 32 exit, so I wouldn't say it's a forgone conclusion at this point that Pitino is back.

Coyle has a great relationship with Pitino, though.

People were saying the same thing last year, and what happened? Stockman has been a huge contributor and we've had 2 frosh starting for a large portion of the season and a 3rd who is a pretty decent guy off the bench.

Chance to play in the B1G, I have faith Pitino can snag some good players.


As for being fired after a Round of 32 exit, the Gophers beat a DEPLETED UCLA team in the 1st round. This year Pitino beat a higher seeded team with the depleted lineup being US.
