    That's odd. Creighton players all have four-letter nicknames in my household.

  6. This is actually a pretty cool matchup for us. Both teams went into the tank during conference season last year (I think both teams won 6 games in conference) and both had a long swoon of consecutive losses. I think both ended up with 6 conference wins. Their best two players from a year ago were both guards and they both return, including high scoring 6'4" shooting guard Quinndary Weatherspoon at 16 1/2 ppg and Lamar Peters at 11 ppg. They have a 6'10" 225# PF named Aric Holman who, as a soph last year, averaged 23 min, 8 1/2 ppg and 6 bds. They also have a sophomore center who probably starts in Schnider Herard who's 6'10" and 260#. They have a couple of other guys in that 6'10"-6'11" size range, but might be a couple of stiffs. After that, they are really guard heavy. The two returning starters plus Weatherspoon's younger brother Nick, a Rivals 4-star freshman. They also return a 6'4", 165# skinny kid named Tyson Carter who chipped in 7.5 ppg in 20 minutes as a freshman last year. They weren't a great shooting team last year averaging only 34.7% from beyond the arc, but they did attempt over 700 treys, so they will launch 'em. I think this team, on paper, seems pretty similar to ours. My speculative starting lineup for them would go as follows: PG 6'0" 185# So SG 6'4" 205# Jr SG 6'4" 165# So PF 6'10" 225# Jr C 6'10" 260# So Jordy and Schnider Herard are very comparable players on paper. Nearly same height and weight, both sophomores, and they put up similar numbers their freshmen years. Their starting PF is very similar in size to either Isaiah or Isaac. And the lines between their PG and Glynn are going to look very similar. I'm guessing their Weatherspoon kid will be a very good matchup for James Palmer and so the X factor is that 2nd guard or wing. This should be a pretty fun test from another P5 school. Really looking forward to how the boys do. Go Huskers!

  7. This will be a tough test. They were a very young team last year: had only one senior on the roster. And they return four starters this year. They had some ups and downs, but they beat LSU, Arkansas, Texas A&M, Missouri and Tennessee. Their respectable conference losses include 81-88 to Kentucky, 92-98 to Auburn, 73-77 and 57-63 to South Carolina, 72-79 to Georgia, 52-57 to Florida, and 82-87 to Ole Miss. They also have a Freshman this year rated by Rivals as #35 and by ESPN as #36 overall.

  8. Is this the ***official*** game thread then @hhcdimes? Here is the MSU Scouting Report from last year on KenPom. They were an extremely young team last year that ended up about 20 spots higher than us in the KenPom final rankings. We're gonna get a strong test right away.

  9. I was simply told that something came to light in the most recent in-home visit. I didn't ask the questions that could have followed. The individual who told me of the event is typically reliable. He typically is spot on or really close to being spot on. So I will not bet my house on him being 100% correct, but I have no reason to doubt him.

    I don't think there is any way she goes to Nebraska and doesn't throw for Coach Pepin. She can do both - like the Davis twins on the FB team.

    In the article about the Mizzou KU game, they said it wouldn't be televised, but both teams' radio crews would broadcast it on their networks. That's why I wondered.

  16. LOL. For what? That extra 1.5% of the money that Adidas paid to the school that reportedly went directly to him instead? Just walk away, Rick. You've got plenty of money (unless you were too stupid to save/invest). Your reputation is already in tatters - you were a good coach but everybody knows you're a cheating sleazeball. Some ridiculous lawsuit isn't going to restore it.

    I move we appoint Norm to be the official HHC Bellwether. The difficult part will be getting him to agree about the neutering thing.

    I just wanted to thank all of you for your kind words and prayers for Brian and our family. As has been previously stated he was entirely devoted to the Husker WBB program and this forum allowed him to share both his knowledge and passion with each of you. I took this photo March 3, 2013 after the Penn State game which was the last WBB game played at Devaney. After the recognition of the seniors I asked to take his picture there one last time. The origin of his username was from his original seat at Devaney (Row6Seat10) but it did not translate to the PBA. He frequently invited family and friends to use one of his tickets so to honor him our family plans to utilize them for the 2017-18 season just as he would have wanted us to do. Perhaps we will get the chance to meet some of you in person, we'll be in Sec. 118. Bruce Karnatz
