Oh they wanted him. I think Potter felt like he should be starting and if he wasn't he was going somewhere else.
Hmmm, odd he's still not starting, but playing enough I suppose

It was for a while, before Coach Gard, his assistants and the players stepped up and put it out. Remember the drilling they took at Minnie, after they lost their trainer?


And Potter, yeah. I'm thinking OSU would love a do-over on that one. Hopefully he can petition and get another year.
No. 1: Minnesota is good despite its record and this team is at times still inconsistent. I just chalk the Minnesota game up to that. 

No. 2: How would he petition for another year? He played 29 and 30 games his first two seasons.

There was probably a psychological element to it. He started games his first two years at OSU and then was replaced in the starting lineup. Then last year he wasn't going to start at center over Wesson, and also hadn't been a great three point shooter so wasn't a natural fit over Young at the 4 either. At OSU he has only shot 30 percent from 3. I imagine if he had been shooting 46 percent like this year they would have promised him more playing time.

I don't know, but he played in zero games for his second 2 seasons. Who knows these days.

Maybe I'm confused. Did he actually play 2 seasons in Columbus, or just 1 season?

He'll have to settle for playing for a Big 10 champ that should return seven rotation guys (assuming no weird NBA stuff) and add a top-20 recruiting class.

Yeah, bummer.

I wonder if he knows that there is no way UW is B1G champ without him. We all saw December. Yeesh.

Congrats on the win this coming Sunday.
Turgeon will hand it to you "terrifically".
Hey! This turned out incorrect. 

Now Maryland gets to hang a banner, first since 2010 and second since 2002. (I'm not sure if Maryland was strict on the whole "no ACC regular season championship" thing. Maybe it's a first.)

I think that clinches the No. 1 seed for UW
