That combination was too good for Minnesota to pass up. Pitino has agreed to take over for the fired Tubby Smith, the university announced o...

When Indiana lost at Minnesota on Tuesday night, it was the seventh time this season that a No. 1 team has been defeated. That's the highest number since 2009-10, according to STATS. And this season isn't over yet. Second-...

Most important and maybe more challenging for the Hoosiers, however, is holding on to first place in the tough-as-ever Big Ten. Trevor Mbakwe had 21 points on 8-for-10 shooting ...

Trevor Mbakwe and Minnesota stepped forward, flexed their muscles and did their best to push the Hoosiers out. Mbakwe had 21 points and 12 rebounds to help the Gophers t...

He would run groups of five players in and out, playing his starters almost the same amount of minutes as his bench players. Now that he has a talented, versatile starting group that believes...

It was a scene that has played out so many times before at Williams Arena, only this time something changed. Minnesota steeled itself against the Michigan State surge and just started hitting...
