The 2016-2017 Minnesota Golden Gopher men’s basketball season is quickly upon us. We threw out some questions to the staff to see what their thoughts were heading into what looks to be an interesting year for the Golden Gophers.
Be honest, are you at all excited to watch this season? Why or why not?
mowe0018: Honestly, I’m really intrigued by the roster. It’s been almost completely rebuilt. When your most experienced player is your point guard, as is the case with Nate Mason and Minnesota, that’s always a decent start. Factor in the steal in recruiting that was Jordan Murphy (and from the sounds of it, Eric Curry), the promise of some interior defense in Reggie Lynch, and the highly ranked talent that is Amir Coffey and you have a lot of good things going for you.
