Marcus Carr might go down as the best point guard during the Richard Pitino Era, but his head coach is disappointed they couldn t win more together with the Gophers.
Toronto s finest was brought in as a transfer from Pittsburgh three years ago anointed by Pitino as the player who would help lead Gophers basketball to the next level.
Saturday s final regular season game vs. Rutgers will be a bittersweet goodbye to Williams Arena for the Gophers seniors. And possibly Carr and Pitino, too. Their futures are in doubt beyond this year.
Pitino gave Carr the keys to the offense heading into last season and watched him guide Minnesota to many memorable wins but also suffer through more tough losses. After such high expectations, they ll likely finish with no NCAA tournaments together.
