Ladies and gentlemen, your hero of the evening, Pierre. He is the man that showed incredible speed and athleticism in tackling the 1st protestor. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Anthony Edwards talks about what he’s put into shooting.
“When I came in the league, the thing was that I couldn’t shoot. Those summers that I had leading up now…was a lot of work. Some days we were going in just shoot 2000 shots. It was tough.”
#Timberwolves
Let's take a moment to appreciate Chris Finch.
This man had surgery on his patellar tendon and was at practice the NEXT day.
He was on the sidelines TODAY.
The Wolves haven't lost a step, quite the contrary, they look even sharper.
This man should be icing and elevating…
Was there added pressure when Anthony Edwards said “They got KD, but we got Jaden McDaniels.”
Jaden McDaniels: No, not really. Ant know what he talking about.
#Timberwolves
Anthony Edwards on confidence in his team, “I don’t care how many shots they miss, if they’re open I’m gonna pass it every single time. I see the work that they put in.”
#Timberwolves
Micah Nori jokes about play calling with Chris Finch 😂: All the plays we scored on were my calls and all the plays we didn’t were his calls.
#Timberwolves
BREAKING!!! THIS GOPHER TEAM IS FOR REAL!
Beat Michigan, on the road, for the first time since 2011. If you aren’t on the
#Gophers
bandwagon, I suggest you get on it NOW! The Ben Johnson era is 8-1!!!!!!!!!
RIP, Goldie Babu (2010 - 2014).

She may not have been perfect, but she was perfect for me.
Anthony Edwards on the past week: It wasn't no days off. I feel like I got in the best shape of my life this week. Finchy's ass was running me through all types of actions, double teams, triple teams, quadruple teams. I thank my coaches...I appreciate them man, put me in the…
How do you prepare your team to play tomorrow with no fans?
Pitino: Well I was Head Coach at FIU for a year and nobody came to our games.
Me...laughing out loud. You can like him or not, but Pitino is hilarious.

Cole Kramer will be fondly remembered by
#Gophers
fans as the guy who:
- Just came in just for the Bowl game, stepped up, when no one else wanted to
- Played his heart out, got a W for MN
- Rode into the sunset with his beautiful fiancé to become a successful businessman.

The
#Gophers
football team is taking up an entire section at the Lynx game and cheering them on loudly. LOVE to see our MN teams supporting other teams!
#RTB
I hope you’re all sitting down, Charles Barkley just gave the
#Timberwolves
credit.
Kenny said the Wolves sped the Joker up, for the 1st time EVER. He credited Rudy, KAT and Naz Reid.
Chris Finch on what’s different about this team: Honestly, I couldn’t tell you because I wasn’t here for those first 26 years, and I don’t care what happened beforehand.

#MicDrop
Shaq on Anthony Edwards: Ant-man has been like this since high school. I don’t have to teach him how to be a dog, he’s already a dog. He’s the puppy litter that when you look at all them pit bulls, he’s the one pit bull that’s already biting and going crazy. I want him, that’s…
How much extra preparation went into this rivalry?
Oturu: It was just a regular game to us.
Willis: He's lying, I'm his roommate. He woke me up at 10am blasting music talking about how we gotta get this one. 😂
#Gophers
P.J. Fleck: This was the best environment I've ever been in college football and it's right here at home at TCF Bank Stadium at the University of Minnesota.
#Gophers
Charles Barkley hating on the Wolves: They beat a mediocre Suns team. Now when they beat a team that they don’t have a size advantage over going forward, then I’m gonna give them their flowers.
Only in Minnesota could a coach be 8-0, sign an extension...and we still have “fans” complaining about him.
You all enjoy being miserable, we’ll enjoy this journey!
Rashod Bateman missed practice because there was a death in his family and Seth Green missed for a wedding. Love this ->
Fleck: I’ve missed a lot of things in my life, and I don’t want players to miss things.
#Gophers
Ernie: You’ve got this cult following up in Minnesota, you’re such a fan favorite, they just say two words “Naz Reid”. They use it as a greeting up there!
Kudos to the
@Timberwolves
for marketing the heck out of Naz Reid too. Showing that support for their players is huge.…
Unpopular opinion - this appears like it was 90 minutes passed curfew, they were asked to go inside a numerous times, kept staying outside and recording video...and the officers are trying to protect them from the real threats.
Go ahead, come at me.
Pitino: Winning is what sells your program more than anything. When you see 5 MN kids playing in an NCAA tourney game...their families are in the stands, you see an arena filled with Gopher fans, you see players getting better and getting that exposure.
#Gophers
I lost 1500 followers since George Floyd was murdered and blocked hundreds more...shocked there are still so many people that don’t get that systemic racism is a thing.

Tim Walz is a REAL human being. He can relate to people. He is kind.
He is smart. He's sharing about missing
#MarchMadness
. How he shares that with his son. He gets how tough this is for people, and is providing great leadership and guidance.
Mike Conley: Nickeil’s the man, I’m the reason why he is who he is today, he won’t tell you all that, but I groomed him well.
(He was joking, but I don’t doubt the impact MC has had on these players).
Dear Minnesotans:
We have an extremely educated and intelligent state. I am SO happy we're starting to get back to the new normal. Stay in small groups, be responsible, stay home as much as you can. Don't be idiots. Then we won't have to do this again!
Thank you!
Mark this date in your calendars, it's the last day we ever have to watch Brad Davison play, EVER.
Who loves Iowa State?!?! Thank you for saving us all from watching more WI basketball, Gabe Kalscheur!
I've been a Gopher fan too long. This team looks fantastic, is up by 26 with 3:11 to go...and I'm still waiting for MSU to take the lead.
I need to get over my PTSD for the past 20 years...
Just a reminder that Tyler Johnson stayed in school to get his diploma...and now he's a Super Bowl Champion. Win-win for this young man.

#GophersInTheNFL
UNBELIEVABLE WIN!
An already short
#Gophers
team down an additional 3 starters…pull it off!!!
I trust in Ben Johnson and this incredible team that has SO much grit, heart & fight!

@GoldieBabu
came to Minnesota from a high kill shelter in Missouri. She was out of time after spending 3 months there. I was determined to just foster her until she was adopted…as I had just started my company and had no time or money for a dog. Of course, it…
Anthony Edwards: I’m going against the best player in the world is always fun. I’m going against the best team in the world is always fun.
I feel like our coaching staff did a great job of game plan throughout the 3/4 days that we had and our guys came out and competed tonight.
People keep asking me why I haven’t given up on the Gophers and why I’m not super pissed.
Because I changed the way I react as a fan, you can’t change what happens on the field/court.
I used to let a gophers loss ruin my day or weekend, and then I shifted to appreciating the…
Thank you all for your advice. Last night I still wasn't sure, but today she cannot move at all, I had to force her meds, and she won't drink. It's time. I've schedule a service to put her down at my home tomorrow, and have friends coming tonight to say goodbye to her.
She…
Not to be super depressing, but for you dog owners, when did you know it was time to put your fur baby down?
Goldie’s mind is great, but her legs are giving out. She had her 1st accidents today, and I had to help her go outside, holding up her back legs.
A friend told me it…
Let this sink in....
The
#Gophers
played a
#25
ranked Ohio State team and put in the bench players at the end of the game.
Man, is this team fun to watch!
Pitino: I've said it before...there is no major city, none, that gets the fans support that we get. None. I am so appreciative every time fans come to this game because we have a lot to offer.
#Gophers
Just like the
#Gophers
going to the QuickLane bowl...you can keep your negative comments to yourself.
This team wanted to keep playing, and now they get to. Be happy for these young men that have overcome a lot of adversity!
For those of you saying this is just because of Caitlin Clark…or course she’s an attraction…but the
#Gophers
starting 7-1 is also a big draw. Either way, amazing!!!
Let's give the
#Gophers
for something that's really been underplayed. HAVING A FULL COVID-FREE TEAM.
With bowls canceled, and teams dropping out, it's huge that this team is where they are and healthy.

@CeliaLMurphy3
(who is not pictured, but beautiful) & Bernard you can see why he’s such a hard working & fine young man. Cheers to the parents who raised a son who’s represented the U w/ class & happens to be one of the best in the nation.
NAW had said that you wait to score, was the 2nd half one of those occasions?
Mike Conley (laughing): No, Ant was shooting all the balls in the first half.
#Timberwolves
Most of the people who follow me are gophers fans. You support Black athletes, you cheer for them, you love them in a jersey. You CANNOT only support Black people when dribbling a ball or catching a football. If you think this has nothing to do with race, you’re naïve.
You know who doesn’t get enough credit? This amazing woman who is the sign language interpreter. I love how she conveys a message (even though I don’t know sign language). She pretty much nails all my emotions.
