Gophers are loading up on knockdown shooters. We need a nickname for this crew.
All 6'5" to 6'7" guards/forwards with a track record of being great three-point shooters.

This team is so fun. The Barn was fired up for today’s game. We aren’t tournament bound and are record is not amazing but Niko Medved’s name should be in coach of the year conversations. #SkiUMah #GoGophers
The coaching job that Niko Medved has done this year is so impressive. Even with all of the injury struggles, this team competes hard, they play an unselfish game, and they are so fun to watch. Easily the most likable underdogs in the league! #SkiUMah #GoGophers
