There's a lot in this video


Recommended Posts

They didn't cover Nebraska's gritty come-back in the MD game.

 

Look at the screen-rescreen that gets Laymon open for a trey at about the 4:10 mark.  First of all, excellent execution by Maryland.  The slo-mo and combined camera angles really allow you to see how that play developed.  You can see Shields over-committing on the first screen and being out of position to challenge the second screen.  Second, how is that not an illegal screen?  Frustrates me to no end when the screener is moving and picks off our defender trying to chase their shooter.  Refs don't call it and we don't do it.

 

Check out the reactions to Miles' post-game speech.  And juxtapose that against what Lanigan said about Andrew White thinking about leaving (I mean when Lanigan first brought it up.)  Question:  Is that a team you could abandon if it was you?

It is all about buying in 100%, then you can't leave.

The video is a clinic on needing to be able to cover your own man without needing help.

 

One great series they ran:  Trimble passes from the top of the key to the big man inside the near wing.  Trimble sprints behind the guy he passed it to and gets a hand-off and curls toward the baseline.  Benny chases behind the screen, Jacobson helps, their big rolls, Trimble hits him with a perfect pass over the top.  Jacobson can't recover to guard the rolling big and McVeigh can't get over from his guy in time to prevent the jam. 

 

Maryland did a very good job in that game of forcing you to help and then making you pay.

Shavon Shields would probably give anything to play one more game with these boys.

 

Andrew White didnt care about the boys.

 

Nebraska was a second choice for AW3 after he couldnt cut it in Kansas.

 

The main difference between AW and a guy like Tai is Tai actually seems to care about Nebraska while AW was using the Huskers as a means to achieve his own financial success.

 

 

Nothing wrong with looking out for yourself, but I would prefer 3 star guys who will fight every day than 5 tar guys who only want to use Nebraska to make money

I'd be OK with us being used for a year by some 5-star, one-and-done kid on his way to the pros.

My issue with that clip is with Tai. Where's the ball pressure? You can't just let Melo stand out there dribbling in one spot clearly looking at the screening action. If Tai has ball pressure and is forcing him away from the obvious action that he's staring at, maybe that pass isn't delivered on point (or delivered at all).

I'm guessing Tai was afraid of giving up the dribble drive.

 

Trimble timed that perfectly.  He dribbled away from the screen, re-screen action and turned back to make the pass just as Laymon is coming back off the 2nd screen.

 

We could do that too.  If we had a shooter that opposing defenses had to chase around the floor.

 

Maybe Jack McVeigh can be that guy.

Hands in his pockets, almost standing, Norm! He's sitting on the bench if you're coaching the squad and I know it!

At 1:35 the Wisconsin color guy said "You haven't been able to say this a lot this year, but Nebraska's been the tougher team." This needs to be the mentality of this years team. "We're tougher than you are". "We're gonna punch you in the mouth and wear you down." If they can embrace that mentality, this team will have a lot of wins available to it.

Thanks, uneblinstu.  I was wondering if someone would mention that.  As I said, there are a lot of topics contained within this video.

 

I think we're going to have some toughness this year if for no other reason than Ed Morrow is now healthy and added 20 pounds of muscle.  Therefore, he's going to be on the floor more. 

 

And, if you've watched Ed closely even going back to the Spain trip, Ed is ...

 

Let's just say Ed is not gonna to take shit offa nobody.  He's got some attitude.  He's the guy that the refs are always going to be pulling him and the other team's big man together and give them a stern talking-to.

 

Ed is the guy you want on your team so that he's not on the other team.  Ed is an enforcer.  If Ed played hockey, he'd be a defenseman.  And he'd spend a lot of time in the penalty box.

 

He's an alpha male.  He's a junkyard dog.  He's power, not finesse.  Ed is going to bring some toughness to this roster.
