Maybe LeBron will retire and take over the head coaching job.

Well true; but AD's don't count.

Can you talk dollars elsewhere, prior to entering the portal? Isn't tampering a thing?

I think husker nation needs to hear from Fred telling us everything is on plan and everything is fine. We need to settle some nightmarish nerves.

Ummm, I'm sooo confused?

We're not forcing these guy's out, are we???

Yeah, I'm not positive about anyone.

Good grief. The news today just sucks.

Lord.

Still, one Nebraskan in the group!

Heard Dotzler from Creighton/Bellevue West is now roaming free.

Still out there recruiting... Colin Cymbalista is finally showing what he can do on a baseball field. Next year he’ll be doing it at Nebraska. The catcher/first baseman at Hutchinson (Kan.) C.C. committed to the Huskers on Sunday following a hot start that has the sophomore among the more well-rounded producers at the junior college level. He chose NU over finalist Penn State and a host of other interested schools including Gonzaga and Western Kentucky.

Man, he looks great in red

Not sure why a "dude" would leave a team where he was a project to go to another team where he would be a project? Sounds like he may be a Summitt League candidate. He could hone his game and then move up if/when the time is right.

Sorta sounds like the Lloyd storyline.

Correct. Players and coaches understand. They will push the envelope until they are made to stop. A push is not a foul, until a ref calls it a foul. So if isn't called then a push can become a shove, etc. Now, it is pretty much anything goes. Then what becomes frustrating for everyone is the occasional touch fouls "that seem to" favor one team over the other.

Stealing this title that Norm provided in one of his recent takes. I thought it could use space for an interesting discussion. We have heard about how we started to change the culture last year and broke out this season, in part, due to this evolution. We also know from the recent past, that skill and talent isn't the only requirement in building a team. Pieces must fit together so the team is cohesive and are all moving the same direction. Talk, talk, talk; but what is the magic formula? How come some players get it, and others do not? Certainly there must be traits that you have to look for and recruit towards, right? There are well over a thousand basketball players currently in the portal. We fans are like kids in a candy store, yelling out to our mama's, I want that one, and that one. How do the coaches choose the multiple players we need? Can we give psychological profile tests to the players? Do they meet the entire team on their visits? Thoughts, knowledge, answers, more questions?

Where does William Lyle come from? Any relation to William Kyle?

So the refs clearly blow a call, then magnify it by calling a technical on the coach for being outside the box!!!! Good grief. Do they really need Duke in the final four that badly???

I believe the talking heads said it was on one end only.

I will admit, I actually shed a small tear when Purdue won. Well deserved and well earned. Plus, we beat them which further confirms, we are not that far away.

Rick Barnes is a master whiner.

Unbelievable.

You know...she is right!
