Feels like the last 30 seconds.

I mean— he played 7 MPG last year.  I’d venture to say we can offer more than that off the bench, so next exactly parallel move— even though he might still be projected to come off the bench.

A better one.
 
We're adding a big PG with elite passing and solid defense in addition to Ulis who is a good PG.  
We're adding a 6'8" guard who has an NBA future and will undoubtedly find his shot with Fred.
We're adding a skilled, athletic 6'10" center who was all conference and can stretch the court.
 
We're likely adding another solid 6'4" guard from Wisconsin who is a 3pt specialist.
We're likely going to get Kyle to help with our front court athleticism.
We have a chance to land Milicic as another versatile weapon at 6'10" who can play the 4-5.
 
In all seriousness, I think the most important thing Fred is looking for is skill.  All of these guys outside of maybe Kyle (who is tremendously skilled defensively) can handle the ball and shoot.  Typically skilled players have learned a lot and worked on their game on their own a lot, which probably means they have a high IQ and work ethic to match their skills.  Coach's dream.  Defensively, our system requires smart players but it's so help heavy it's basically a zone which typically makes up for some lack of athleticism.  I think Fred is looking for long players who can fill it up on offense with the hope that their length creates problems in our hybrid defense.  Brice is like this.  Mast is like this.  Gary is probably the only player left that doesn't quite fit this mold exactly but he has really worked on his offense, and he was already an elite defender, so he still fits in very well.  
 
I'm intrigued.  

Not joking, Runza in general (and Temperature Tuesday in particular) is one of the things I miss the most after moving out of state.

Between family and friends, we have Nebraskan houseguests at least 2x per year. I usually ask for them to bring frozen Runzas. And this is probably odd, but the other thing I have them bring is Hy-Vee’s pineapple bratwursts from their butcher counter. 

Hahaha it's funny because in any other food I agree completely. But for some reason in Runzas it works for me.

Gotta make sure you’re a good candidate for it though. I have a cousin who went blind in one eye after. 
 
I mostly wear contacts and for me, the risk of losing my sight is definitely not worth removing the inconvenience of taking contacts in and out everyday.

Great pickup. 5* kid who needed a year to put his game together at the B1G level. This is one of those situations where you’re happy to be the player’s second stop rather than the school he chose out of high school. Rutgers got him when he was pure potential. We got him for the year(s) he will be productive. 

That’s the type of name I expect to read below a Civil War general’s portrait.

I hope not. I think people are forgetting Ulis was like… Plan D in our portal PG search last year. Then he got suspended and we went to Boogie as Plan E.
 
Based on their careers prior to Nebraska, Worster seems more poised to be starter.

If you want to cherry pick data, it's easy to find public schools with horrible academic scores.  I see your 35-39% math proficiency at Prime Prep, and give you 14% math proficiency at James Earl Rudder High: https://www.publicschoolreview.com/james-earl-rudder-high-school-profile.  
 
The point that public school apologists ignore is that choice is important in a free society.  We need both a competent public school system for an educated society, and the freedom of choice to select an alternative.  
 
 

Seems more likely that we'll have a solid 1-7 followed by an 8-12 that you pray never need to enter the game.  The guys who could have been that quality depth left.  And how many transfers do you know of that are happy to become the 11th man in an 8-man rotation?

Not visiting k-state anymore according to on3

Jordi Alba.  Pretty sure that red card does not carry over to other leagues/competitions, so he should be available Saturday.  Ironically, he is probably more likely to start on Saturday since his red card saved him 15-20 minutes of playing time last night.

I think you can take an elite athlete and teach him how to defend in soccer a lot easier than you can teach an elite athlete how to pitch or hit a baseball.  Granted a non-soccer playing athlete isn't going to score any goals against a pro soccer team, but you could park the bus and keep the final score somewhat respectable.  Not true for the baseball game, as the baseball players would destroy the non-baseball players.

It's amazing how public school defender assumes that Neal Hawks must be a wacko for living out his beliefs. Why is that so threatening -- I personally don't give a rip if the guy wants to home school or private school or whatever school, who really cares how the guy wants to live his own life?!
 
<Rant over.>

Yes.
 

Feels like Morgan is a backup post and that's fine because we need backup posts.
 
Think we need one of Malique Ewin or William Kyle for rim protection, who both have two years.  Kyle probably has the lower ceiling, higher floor and would be the more likely one to stay two years.  Ewin probably has the lower floor and higher ceiling where you potentially might need to replace him if he goes to the NBA.

It appears as if Memphis has just entered the...
 

But if he chooses Minnesota, he kinda sucks imo
