As long as Kirk Cousins is the quarterback of the Minnesota Vikings, there are going to be trade rumors about him. The latest (and repetitive) one is him being dealt to the San Francisco 49ers to reunite with Kyle Shannahan, who coached him in Washington. After seeing the return Detroit got for Matthew Stafford, should the Vikings explore trading Kirk Cousins? And would Jimmy Garrapolo be a better fit for this team?

Also, the Wolves can't contain Jarrett Allen and Collin Sexton in a 100-98 loss to the Cavs, and the Lynx sign three-time All Star Kayla McBride.

In the second half of the Wrap, Zeke chats with fellow Minnesota misery author Dan Whenesota. Dan's book, "History of Heartbreak" also dives into the worst moments in Minnesota sports. The chat about writing their books, and some of the more recent letdowns that the two would add to new additions of their books.

Mike Grimm from the Gopher Radio Network calls in to recap a busy weekend for U of M sports, including another sweep for the Men's Hockey team and a 4-0 start for the Volleyball team. Zeke and Mike also talk about Gopher Men's Basketball and where this team stands for the March tournament after losing to Purdue over the weekend.

Plus, the short-handed Wild stun Colorado in OT, and the Wolves hang on to beat Cleveland in the first of back-to-back games with the Cavs.

Boys Basketball coach Markus Okeson joined Zeke on the Wrap this morning to re-cap the win over the Rangers and this three-game winning streak his team is on.

There were a WHOLE lot of Lakers wins last night: Wrestling defeated Fosston 67-12 (but dropped their match to TRF 39-34), Laker Girls hockey beat East Grand Forks 1-0, Laker Boys hockey beat Wadena-Deer Creek 3-2, and Laker Boys Basketball held on to beat Crosby-Ironton 71-70. Boys Basketball coach Markus Okeson joined Zeke on the Wrap this morning to re-cap the win over the Rangers and this three-game winning streak his team is on.

Also, the Wild win a physical game with a hot offensive start (?!?) against the Kings last night that saw five goals from five different players last night, and what the fallout of the Kevin Fiala hit could be. Also, WNBA free agency doesn't officially begin until Monday but it looks like the Lynx are going to add two All-Stars to their roster in 2021.

We're geared up for Lakers Wrestling on KDLM tonight!

Zeke stopped by practice last night to chat with seniors Blaine Henderson, Brody Ullyott, and Mike Friendshuh to see how their season is going with six meets under their belt. In the second half of the Wrap, Zeke is joined in studio by head coach Rob Ullyott to talk about the first couple weeks of the season and preview tonight's matchups against Bagley-Fosston and a rematch of last year's Section 8AA championship with Thief River Falls. Coverage with David Kinderman comes your way at 5:00 tonight. The Lakers also wrestle at home on Saturday against UNC and Greenbush at 1:00.

Also, the Wolves lose to Golden State (again) and PJ Fleck isn't jumping ship to Tennessee and the SEC or the Houston Texans.

LAKER TEAMS IN ACTION TONIGHT:

Cross Country Skiing vs Moorhead @ Maplelag

Boys Basketball @ Crosby-Ironton

Girls Hockey @ East Grand Forks

Boys Hockey @ Wadena-Deer Creek

Boys Swimming vs Park Rapids

Zeke goes through last night's High School Scoreboard as the Lakers Boys Basketball beats Park Rapids 80-67 as Zack Oistad puts up 37 points on KDLM last night. The Twins have signed a four-time Gold Glove-winning shortstop Andrelton Simmons to bolster their infield, and for the first time since 1960, nobody was voted into the MLB Hall of Fame.

In the second half of the Wrap, Cal Soderquist with the Timberwolves Radio Network joins Zeke to talk Wolves basketball...specifically the play of Naz Reid, Jarred Vanderbilt and Anthony Edwards and the way they've stepped up with KAT and D-Lo out. Plus, Cal previews tonight's rematch against Andrew Wiggins and the Golden State Warriors and what needs to be different tonight versus Monday night.

Head Coach of the Lakers Boys Hockey Team Ben Noah joined the Wrap this morning to talk about the last three games for his squad. The Lakes are 2-1 this season and play at home tonight against Red Lake Falls.

Also, Andrew Wiggins and the Warriors beat the Wolves 130-108 last night, the MLB has said there will be no DH for the National League this year and that cuts Nelson Cruz' demand in half, and there are three players on the NCAA Point Guard of the Year list with ties to Minnesota.

Kevin Falness of the Minnesota Wild Radio Network joins Zeke to talk Wild hockey, his take on the first six games of the season, the goaltender situation and how long Cam Talbot could be out, the impact if the Ian Cole trade, and looking ahead to a tough stretch of the schedule: four straight games against Nathan MacKinnon and the Colorado Avalanche.

It was a weekend full of wins for Minnesota sports! The Timberwolves snapped their four-game losing streak (without KAT and D-Lo) in a 120-110 win over New Orleans, the Wild split their weekend series with the San Jose Sharks, the Gopher Men's Hockey team scored 20 goals in two games against Arizona State, and the Green Bay Packers lost the NFC Championship game for the fourth time in seven years.

Zeke also talks about the PJ Fleck rumors swirling around the state that he may leave the U for Tennessee and the SEC, and why one of his top recruits de-committing over the weekend doesn't help the situation. (It REALLY won't help if Avante Dickerson signs with Tennessee on February 3rd...)
