His first exhibition game appearance gave him something to build on and was a sight for sore eyes for Gophers fans.

TM should not be anywhere near a Gopher uniform. Sorry, winning isn't worth having a bad guy in the jersey.

It'll take some time for Trevor to trust his knee; that's normal. As to his character, I don't think we need a blue devil advising the Gophers as to who should or should not appear in a Gopher uniform. Surely, he has made mistakes, but a "bad person" he is not, and I think that's evident from both the judge's decision to add only probation, and the coach's decision to reinstate.

It is good to see his leadership back on the floor. Trevor's progress will continue as he gains confidence in his knee. I really think this year will be fun as long as the team chemistry works with all the talent they have.

Bluedevil, you should take your sorry comments back. Mistakes he has made -- we see that. But calling him a "bad guy"; come on. Give it rest. Go Gophers and Go Trevor. We are on your side, unlike others.

I heard his first paycheck after he signs with the NBA is going to the University to payback all his 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th chances. It's hard to understand how much trouble Tubby has had with knuckleheaded players in his short time as head coach. Devoe Joseph was a deerp, Royce White was/is a head case, Trevor has seen too much trouble as a Gopher, Iverson leaving was too bad, he was better than Sampson. I know there are others just not as high profile. Recruit good kids who can play and raise the level of integrity of Gopher hoops. Do it quickly, we have been waiting since 1982!!!

wisstinks4, I must correct you: his NBA paychecks are going to reimburse a young lady in Florida for her medical bills. This was ordered by the Dade County Courts as a condition of Mbakwe's PAROLE.
