They've also played the 2nd toughest schedule in the country. I'm not saying they're great or anything. They choke at the end of games. But they probably fall somewhere around Oklahoma or Texas as a comparison in your conference.

I mean Oklahoma beat them by 9

OK. Clones beat Seton Hall once upon a time too.

Call it what you want but every squirrel finds a nut every once in while. That's what I call Maryland's prayer last night. Minnesota played to lose in the second half not to win.

holy crap a 16-pt comeback. And Rut almost pulled off the same vs PennSt

I mean I guess I don't understand why you think Minnesota is good that's all

I think they're just meh. But their schedule has been brutal. They have some decent talent but little depth is one of their main problems. Oturu is a beast but tends to wear out late. If he comes back next year they should be good. They're kind of a basketball version of the Cyclones football team.

Minny is not good, why die on this hill?

Weird Iowa fans were so excited to beat a meh team

Did you not read what I said? Didn't say they were good. They have some talent but no depth.

I mean it was a better win than ISU.

They have record and scoreboard. Not sure this proves much of anything other than you are trolling.

How am I trolling by posting stats? Iowa is better than us in basketball this year. Not sure that means we can't discuss individual performances

Minnesota reminds of Iowa State. A star in Oturu, a good player in Carr and not a ton after that.

I'd be amazed if Minnesota doesn't move on from Pitino. They've not been great, and there has been a TON of talent from the state of Minnesota in the last 3 of 4 years that he couldn't capitalize on. Matthew Hurt, Zeke Nnaji, Tre Jones, Gary Trent Jr., Jalen Suggs.

I think Reid Travis as well.

You've got to show some success before you're going to be able to pull those type of players. All of those players listed above went to blue blood schools, besides Travis who went to Stanford (still a big time school) and then ended up at Kentucky.

I'm surprised you didn't cherry pick the last 3 games.

Conference play seems fair doesn't it?

 

[cyfan92]

We better scoop up the Utah St coach before Minny does

I'm excited about every victory.

Sure hope you change your pants after every victory!!
