..... South Dakota State relieved......
This is a WOW hire for the Gophers.
As in we just hired Lindsay Whalen......WOW.
Could go great, could go really not so great.
She has The Name, just no coaching experience, so can bring Jim Peterson or others with who do.
Next big question for Gopher fans. What is Whalen’s relationship like with Paige Bueckers???
Could Minnesota have a chance with recruiting her??? (Just finished her sophomore season at Hopkins)
(It would be kinda like if the Jones brothers had stayed home instead of going to Duke)
Well, this can’t hurt.....

Just talked to Bob Bueckers, father of Hopkins star Paige, one of the top players nationally. His reaction to Whalen news? "Wow," he said.
Bob said Paige has a signed Whalen jersey hanging in her room and also a signed pair of Whalen's game shoes that she gave her.
