Okay, the game was actually at 5:00 PM locally and the Gophers won 75-63. They finished 25-11 on the season. Hopefully they can build on this and get Mara Braun back healthy for the entire season next year. Excellent finish.
Aloha!
Surprised this wasn’t done sooner. Easy way to pump more cash into the program, and in theory, get more guys out of the portal.

Unless they donate the funds to NIL not sure it go for players...but who knows.
Solid pickup! Off to a good start.
A nice addition for the free throws alone 😉

They've been trying to do this for a while, just no takers.

C'mon man, this is a hockey board! 😉
fwiw the Gophers have offered Nolan Groves
He is likely going to Texas Tech...
Apparently, Johnson was horrible at raising NIL money. Medved has already pulled in massively more NIL money to Dinkytown in a few weeks than Johnson did in the last year:
B1G refs... corrupt, or just incompetent?

No one had any confidence in Johnson from the start (1st time as a head coach) and he never did anything to change that. People didn't want to contribute to what was most likely going to fail anyway.
He also refused to do the "shake hands" portion of the job. Fleck is the best at selling the brand and raising cash...Johnson refused to do it. They brought him because of his relationship with locals and he never cultivated it.

I won't lie...the roster is not exciting me much. I trust Niko knows what he is doing though.
