Since the Minnesota Golden Gophers mailed it in on the court in Columbus today, I’m going to mail in the recap of the game. The players looked lethargic. An offensive plan and/or scheme was non-existent. Coach Pitino showed no ability to coax anything out of his team and seemed content to watch the offense resemble a clogged toilet for a vast majority of the game. Meanwhile, through poor communication and lackadaisical effort, the defensive gave up wide open threes, dunks, and layups.
Buckeye forward Trevor Thompson ate Gopher center Reggie Lynch’s lunch. Guard Mark Loving was hitting anything and everything.
