So we’re really going to try this out are we? The 2020-21 season begins on Wednesday against Green Bay, and from there the Gophers embark on what will be a very tense, fraught season where we’ll wonder if and when random games will get canceled, who will see the floor each night and who we’ll even be playing.
But let’s pretend for just a second that the season plays out according to the schedule. We know a couple things: Richard Pitino brings back a pretty nice complement of players, including an all-conference PG in Marcus Carr, and he made good on three impact transfers in Brandon Johnson, Liam Robbins and Both Gach, each of whom should command significant playing time.
