Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Wednesday, August 30, 2006

Some good news for Minnesota (Gophers) fans: Lindsay Whalen is back in town. She'll join the Gopher Staff as an Adminstrative Assistant.

“I’m thrilled to return to Minnesota and work with Pam [Borton], her staff and the team,” said Whalen, a Hutchinson, Minn., native. “It’s such a good opportunity for me to learn a different aspect of basketball operations. I’m also really looking forward to spending some time at home.”

She's scheduled to start her duties in the fall...which doesn't answer the question: Might she show up in Raleigh to try out for the National Team (which is missing a true back up to Sue Bird)?
