Gopher.
Guessing or in the know?
Since he has not committed it would be foolish to state definitely however I believe we are top two, and I believe top right now.

I guess that makes it a guess.

Another Indiana/Illinois kid the U has been chasing is Kendall Coleman. Other big ten schools are also chasing him but the difference is at Minnesota, we're going back to chasing trophies Purdue and other schools are trying to break the top 20.

Whoa, slow your roll there. Minnesota is firmly planted in the middle of the Big Ten. Last year was a definite step in the right direction, but I don't know that we are really in a position yet to be looking down at other Big Ten schools.

Middle of the pack?

Out of 14 teams, only 3 placed higher then us at Nationals.

Take your hate elsewhere, you're hurting my feelings.

Yes, I would consider a team that is in the middle third of their conference to be a middle of the pack team in their conference. It's not a bad thing though! The way things were trending a year ago today being in the middle of the pack in the Big Ten is pretty remarkable.

My Minnesota math tells me that 4th out of 14 puts MN in the upper 3rd of the B10 :)

Well for all those dual meet fans out there we were 7th in the B10 standings. And 5th at B10 tournament.

So hes not really wrong. You guys just chose nationals instead of the conference.

I agree, I wouldn't want our boys to peak at any other point in the season than Nationals.

I would happily be last in the Big Ten tourney every year if we were top three at nationals every year. Not even close in my opinion.

What are the chances we'll go out and get him? I'd be more excited if someone de-committed from PSU and decided to go to the U.

PSU was way ahead of everyone else! And they really are only going to be stronger this season.

So it doesn't really matter where you would consider Minnesota, they have alot of work to put in to be in the same class as PSU.

It's a qualifying tournament, so yes, it matters in that it qualifies you for nationals. Looking back I don't think people remember Big 10 results nearly as much as NCAAs.

And people don't remember a 4th place finish at nationals as much as who won the B10 title.

Whats your point?

The original post was comparing where the Gophers stacked up in the B10. Against B10 competition they were middle of the pack.

He decomitted before recruits could be contacted (July 1st). No correlation to Lee's recruitment (per Willie Saylor). Both Rider and Lee looking at Gophers, among other teams. Would fit great at 149 and 157 IMO.

Kendall Coleman originally committed to Purdue, but my understanding is the Maple departure has him looking at his options, with Purdue still in play.
