After thinking it through after some more jack celebrating the win, I think Pike needs to be replaced with Hoppen.  Lue, Belcher, Hoppen, Strickland.   Surprised not more love for Belcher.  He was a bad man and played with some wrist issues at times.  Tough Cookie.  In the counting categories(meaning not average) He ranks 9th in scoring all time, 2nd all time assists, 1st steals in a complete landslide. (Almost twice as many as anyone not named Strickland, digest that for a minute, amazing), 10th all time in blocks(amazing considering he was a guard), all time leader in games wearing a Husker jersey, and started 18 more than anyone else all time.  He started 129 games out of 131 he played in.  8th all time in 3 pointers(to be fair he is 7th in attempts). 

 

Belcher seems like he belongs.

Tough Cookie. He's "elite eight" worthy, for sure. Or Nefarious Nine. ;)
