  1. On that note, I don’t think it’s completely unrealistic to think Bryce could accomplish that this season, staying “within the offense” and not just jacking up shots to pad his numbers.
  2. I’m thinking it was former Mr Kim Kardashian who led the league in BOTH scoring and rebounding as a Frosh with the Gophers.
  3. The first of several times he’ll win that honor. Just curious, who was the last Freshman to lead the B1G in scoring…? Kris Humphries? Chis Webber?
  4. I’d like to see Fred experiment with a LOT of different lineup combinations before we get into the meat of the B1G schedule. Wilhelm & Eduardo on the floor together, the return of Kobe & more Keon Edwards…
  5. Just finished watching the Coaches show & was reminded of how many players we have that are tragically one dimensional, & if that part of their game is “off” they become a real liability. Looking forward to Tuesday, I’m almost ashamed to admit it but I haven’t seen a Nebraska/Creighton game in person since 1991…
  6. ESPN Predictor has the Cornhuskers @ 75% to WIN, & the Missouri Valley has beens @ 25…
  7. If the other Huskers hit 10 of those 15 Threes on Tuesday maybe WE’LL be the one’s who run Creighton out of the building…
  8. Had front row seats when I saw him @ the Guthrie Theatre in Mpls. 1990…
  9. I was living in an efficiency above Spaghetti Works when Kirby Puckett hit the game winning home run in game 6 of the ‘91 Series. Drove to Mpls. the next morning with a couple buddies just to watch game 7 on TV. Still the smartest thing I ever did…
  10. I noticed he didn’t give that same lecture to Brett Bielima last weekend…
  11. Couldn’t agree more Cazzie. My Selection Sunday comment was tongue firmly in cheek. Now is when the hard work starts.You don’t get out rebounded by 20 (regardless of the opponent) unless you’re too busy just standing around. They have to bring an attitude/toughness every time they walk on the court. These are slow painful lessons that can’t be glossed over with highlight dunks & press clippings.
  12. Last night reminded me of the old joke: Let’s step out back, you give me HALF your money, I’ll kick you in the nuts & we’ll call it even.
  13. So on Selection Sunday will this be considered one of our “bad” losses…?
  14. Wilcher starting in place of Lat along with Zo, Walker & the McGowen’s brothers…
  15. Eat It Wisconsin, & oh btw the Golden Gophers Ben Johnson has never been the head coach at ANY level, Y League, High School etc. If it was possible to rank them lower than 14 they would have…
  16. It’s not “OFFICIALLY” basketball season until I ask the bartender at XYZ bar to turn the game on & some hayseed says “Nebraska has a BASKETBALL team”…???
  17. Finally…Andy Katz already has us as a #10 seed in the Big Dance. GBR!!!
  18. I heard this a LOT living in the Twin Cities & would just flip it on them. “So your saying the reason the Golden Gophers have sucked for decades is because there’s just TOO much to do”…!
  19. I scored a Lincoln Journal Star promotional hat from back in the day called a “NEE cap” this week. Does anyone else remember those…?
  20. I’ll never forget when Watson went toe to toe with Lonzo Ball & UCLA…!
