So the post-match thread might be more interesting than the match.

So the post-match thread might be more interesting than the match. It's Upper Midwesterners. One says, I strongly dislike your way of doing things! The other says, I strongly dislike your way of doing things, too! And then they go home.

I'm pretty sure Minny has more number 1 recruits on the court today than Sheff has had over his entire career at Wisconsin No need for #1 recruits, when you can just poach great players from other schools to make your team elite. "To poach a player means to buy them in a secretive, somehow dishonest way – to steal them." Tell us straight up, anonymous punk. Is this what you mean?
It's patently untrue any way you spin it. You know it and everyone else knows it. It should be a dead issue but stupid people keep bringing it up because they are angry and frustrated. Your team lost. Get over it and grow up.

No need for #1 recruits, when you can just poach great players from other schools to make your team elite. A large reason we beat y'all today was because of the backcourt play of GG and Orzol. Was that poached too? When Franklin came over, she was nowhere close to this level of defense and serve receive. Nowhere close to this level of hitting. We trained her up. Maybe your coach can try that? Also, your team has FOUR transfers playing as starters lol. Davis, Phoebe, Murr, and Grote. Grote has literally been your best player for the majority of the season. And yet you want to try to call us out?? Transfers from Euro club teams don't count I guess. Whatever, Transfrer U is alive and well and on it's way to hosting. Good for you.

that was boring lol i mean obivously wisconsin is the better team, but is minney's mid play/team in general bc of coaching? not as strong of a recruiting class? etc? i don't follow the gophers close enough so im genuinely curious to hear from someone who has a more informed opinion My observation...Injury notwithstanding, Shaffmaster's play this season has hampered this team. i feel like watching at a distance she has NEVER had good passing though, but you're right, it's never been exceptional setting with her

It's an even playing field. Take the best you can get, whether they're from high school or already enrolled at a university. Any argument to the contrary is purely sour grapes. I say this as a die-hard gopher.

Isn't the Turkish libero Z carrying all of Minny's hope to have a decent libero next season LOL? So because you can't identify or recruit European talent as well as Wisconsin, you try to spin it as "transfer from Euro club teams"? More salt here than the Dead Sea.

Nope, Gophers go straight to the locker room. No spelling practice tonight. didn't think you were such a tool rainbowbadger I think of myself as a needlenose pliers. Not essential on most occasions, but when you need it, you’re glad it’s there.

Oh, EE, I don't think the gophers depend on their back row defense this season. I love how they just make up stuff sometimes.

like is the slip of minny purely bc of cook or a combo of the recruiting classes simply not being as strong/able to mesh together which also can lead back to cook
