  1. So much for having enough money to buy a pizza & see a movie. Remember when that sad little line was trotted out for YEARS as to why Athletes should be paid…
  2. Yes, I grew up with Depression Era parents who installed a very commonly held belief, anything worth doing is with doing RIGHT. So whether it’s Superior vs Sandy Creek or the B1G Title game you better move like you’ve got a purpose…
  3. Playing HARD shouldn’t be the exception but the rule when you walk in the gym…
  4. We always called Almeida “Fogo De Chao” the Brazilian Steakhouse…
  5. I saw Hoppen play against the TWolves when he was a Charlotte Hornet
  6. Farmer, Hoppen & Mikki Moore all played for the Golden State Warriors, obviously at different times though… Without looking it up I don’t think we’ve EVER had players drafted in Back-to-Back years.
  7. *See* last shot vs Illinois from a year ago, final possession vs Northwestern in the B1G Tournament…STILL at this point we really need all hands on deck.
  8. He wasn’t a ball hog on a BAD team, (we’ve had those) but he was the most decorated Frosh we’ve ever had & we parlayed that talent into absolutely nothing…
  9. I still haven’t gotten over the fact they eliminated the THIRD place game at the Final Four…
  10. He’s taller than I remembered, I’ll be surprised if he’s not starting Game 1.
  11. I didn’t think he’d ever sniff a D1 job again after Indiana. I’m not sure if Musselman had any interest in coming here, but I know Minnesota could’ve had him & they passed…
  12. What would’ve the the Fourth year of the Eric Musselman Era looked like…?
  13. Sad to see it end in this fashion. Love the guy & will always be part of “Doc’s Crew” Too many great stories to recount here, certainly one of the good ones & forever a Cornhusker…
  14. So outside of Wilcher & Breidenbach almost everyone else on the roster is an “If” or a “Maybe”? Not to sound like a Wet Blanket here but turning over this entire thing (yet again) doesn’t-bode-well. Wasn’t our NIL program dialed in, facilitates off the charts, fan support, NBA fast track etc etc. I KNEW Fred would be back, but without a foundation of Walker/Trey/Bryce it looks like nothing other than more false hope.
  15. Wimpy & the Hawk are yet ANOTHER reason to Hate the White Sox…carry on
  16. My March Madness Challenge is summoning up a level of interest in an event I no longer feel connected too. Spring Training, Spring Football were at one time signs of NEW beginning’s & optimism. Now they only remind me of the long painful slog that lies ahead….#GBR
  17. Remember when they finished in 5th place and went to the Dance while we finished in 4th & stayed home? It’s like that…
  18. Sure seemed like a lot of folks attended the State Tournament games over the weekend…
  19. Creighton 0 - 4 in Big East Title games…
  20. A good friend of mine had his Son take a pic with Roby the other night before the Timberwolves game. GBR
  21. I’d bet a LOT of money Illinois goes farther than any other B1G team in the Dance…
  22. He was on the Mic today for the Auburn - Ft Calhoun game adding Color Commentary & taking some photos with the players. Could this be him taking one last “victory lap” here in Nebraska, or embracing a culture he’s fallen in love with…
