I posted this last year: 247 Sports top 150 ranking for portal transfers: #87 Mast #88 Williams Others of note: #10 Nembhard #11 McCollum #18 Kaluma #55 Traudt #75 Hugley #99 Wrightsell #126 Sallis

Good question. Not on the list.

247 sports portal rankings: 1. Johnell Davis (Fla Atl) 2. AJ Storr 3. Tucker Devries 27. Saint Thomas 28. Tarris Reed 30. Omaha Biliew 36. Frankie Fidler 37. Tony Perkins Morgan was not in the top 75 (so he must be pretty good giving how these ratings usually work out) Belmont had 2 in the top 20

Along with fewer home fans?

If we don't land him now, knowing this, can we officially end the stereotype look for all Nebraskans that people on the coast seem to have about us?

I do like that you are not watering down the tournament with 64 teams but with all the automatic bids that go to mid major conference winners (which I support) there are some very good teams that do not make the tournament, especially if there are upsets in conference tournament play. I thought bumping it up to 96 would still give you about 33% of teams making the tournament. I believe in football it is 55% of the teams that make a bowl game, which has become a joke, and I don't want basketball to fall into that same system. Even if you go to 128 it is still under the percentage of football teams that make a bowl game. Baseball has 64 teams that make a regional, but there are fewer baseball teams than basketball.

Didn't he sing achy breaky heart and produce a talentless daughter?

Eliminate the NIT. Add 28 teams to the tournament so the bottom 64 have a play in game on Tue or Wed at higher seed. Top 32 get a bye. Or just expand to 128 teams if you don't like the bye. Keep the CBI or the new tournament for your mid major schools that don't make the tournament.

I guess that would explain the road only suspension.

When did the hand check become legal? This has changed a lot over the years. It is not even a hand check but a hold. This has filtered down to high school as well and has made the game so much more physical.

Anyone know why he was suspended this year? (for road games) I thought it might be for misspelling Doug.

I assume they can benefit from NIL as well as the players.

Probably should just eliminate this chart.

Why do I have a sinking feeling that Sam H will be the only returner from this year's rotation.

So, you say we need a point guard?

I get my wife every year. She is pretty gullible. She is a big NU volleyball fan so I told her today that Cook retired. A few years ago I told her I received a job offer in another town and we would have to move. I set it up by telling her I had something important to tell her when she got back from the store. My daughter started crying when I told them and I got slapped when I said April Fools. I keep it simple and painless now.

Played quit a few pickup games with Kropp as I was a student at Kearney State in the 80's. The first time I remember a friend was dividing up teams and he put all the good players on one team and me of course on the other. I told him I didn't think the teams were fair. He said, "oh they are fair, that's Tom Kropp with you." We won of course. Guy was an amazing shooter. He could pull up from deep and bank it in with a soft touch. For the younger members a bank shot is one that goes off the glass before it goes in the basket. He had that Bird/Magic/Jordan quality that he was great but would also make the players around him better.

Is the Creighton football team supposed to be very good this year? I don't follow them.
