How about your daily dose of arrogance from the seventh-best team in the Big 10:

I see he waited until we signed a point guard. 😉

My father played on the 1956-57 freshman basketball team at NWU. Plainsmen forever.

Adding a 2nd PG, whether Worster starts or not is not terribly relevant in my mind, frees Brice Williams to play more like the scoring threat he can be without the responsibilty of running the offense. The fact that Worster seems pretty productive in the PG role is just icing on the cake. Happy to have him!

At first glance I thought that was a Scott Frost jersey, but upon closer inspection it appears to be an Eric Crouch instead. Which, given his age, makes a bit more sense.

It was the second time; Rutgers in 2016 was the first.

If Hoiberg can land Milicic, William Kyle, and Connor Hickman we're not just talking about going to the tournament and winning a game...we're talking about more. Potentially *much* more!

I can remember when Cedric Hunter & Ron Kellogg (Omaha South & NW) Started at KU & I don’t recall them being particularly singled out when they played in Lincoln.

A small, low-efficiency combo guard that is turnover prone and struggles to get to the FT line. What's not to like? 😅
Definitely a second-rounder, two-way contract kinda guy. Baylor is at best the same. Kalkbrenner has zero chance of getting drafted.

* Including G League teams 😅
Justin Patton would've benefited greatly from attending a different school that has a better track record for developing talent. To date, the only player Greg has ever made that sort of investment into was his own son.
When Patton committed after his Junior year at Omaha North, he didn't have any other committable offers and was ecstatic to have the opportunity to play a few miles from home. When his recruitment blew-up and he became a five-star top-50 player, he kept his word and stayed committed.
But Greg wouldn't commit to playing him because he had another Senior Center (Geoffrey Groselle) on the team. Instead he convinced Patton to do the unthinkable for a five-star player, take a redshirt year. Greg would even publicly shame Patton in interviews when asked about the decision, stating he needed to improve his diet, sleep, strength/conditioning, and competitiveness...all issues that would continue to plague him once he did reach the professional ranks.
Once Patton did play, he was immediately dominant and lead the team to a top ten ranking. Greg played him as much as possible and quickly reversed course, now praising Patton saying, "I’ve never coached anybody who has come as far and as fast as he has done it." But the utter lack of strength-training, conditioning, and preparation during his redshirt season coupled with a high utilization rate resulted in his foot becoming injured.
Patton continued to play through it as the season finished but was still bothered by it during pre-draft workouts. Greg did not care because Patton's high level of play had earned the school the commitment from another Top-75 Center (Jacob Epperson) from powerhouse La Lumiere. Less than a week after signing with the Timberwolves during his very first team workout, Patton broke the fifth metatarsal in his left foot. He underwent surgery, rehab, played a few minutes in a single NBA game...and two weeks later was getting another surgery on the foot. After spending his rookie season in the G League, he'd require surgery for a broken right foot. And the rest, much like Patton's NBA career, is history.

i really like Payne for what he is. He is a tank in the paint….a throwback PF. If you need muscle down low he’s your man. If you need a passing or stretch 4 type…definitely NOT your man. It would be interesting to see how he would blend into this team.
