Michigan vs Nebraska Game Thread

Walton has more assists himself than we have as a team.

I met Tim Miles for the first time nearly 10 years ago at a Jamba Juice in Fort Collins. He bought me an Apples and Greens smoothie with a soy protein boost. I loved Tim then, and I still want the best for him. However, if this game plays out the way I expect, and if Penn State beats us Wednesday in DC, this is going to start to feel a lot like the last gasp of the Danny Nee era. I was solidly behind Tim three weeks ago because I thought these players deserved a chance to grow and improve in the system. But their inability to complete simple basketball plays — catch the ball, dribble, make open shots, close out on the shooter — has almost convinced me that it's time to blow it up. 

 

These men have three halves of basketball to change my mind. 

 

Beat Michigan!

 

(Of course, what I think means nothing, but you already knew that.)

where is the glynn watson from the 1st iowa game? 1-6 tonight, and has not been great the last couple months.

Putting the ball in the hoop has not been our problem

Now are shooting almost 57%.  We just are really bad stopping the other team right now.

need glynn for sure.  being mia has hurt.

[jayschool]

Now we need 15 straight stops.

[jayschool]

Never mind.

[colhusker]

Webster needed to get back on defense instead of trying to body the guy at half court.

[NUtball]

Effing Wagner with another reach in.

[colhusker]

Jack got bumped after shot and no call

[MichHusker]

Some signs of life maybe?

[NUtball]

Walton travels at least half the time he makes a move.

[MichHusker]

Outscored by 27 from the 3pt line

There's always that last gasp before the patient flatlines.

Yeah we are playing well this half but they have outscored us. They can't miss.

Would be nice to have guys that get open and once open knock down the shot.

A performance like tonight makes me believe we have a long, long way to achieve being a top tier basketball team.

[The Polish Rifle]

Walton is a nice player. Can shoot, pass and keeps his team in line.

In conference games, including tonight, our opponents are 152 of 357 from deep, or 42.4 percent.

We are 105 of 305, or 34.4 percent.

The difference in points is 141, or nearly 8 points per game.

[NUtball]

Where's the foul?  What a crock of BS.

[colhusker]

Jordy is the only guy playing with any fire tonight.

Well, if you are in the "Miles must go" camp, then you're probably gonna be rooting against this team in the B1G tourney. Still unsure of my feelings on Tim

I won't cheer against him at any time.  But as Jayschool said above, 3 weeks ago I would have argued he needed to stay another year.  After the complete and total melt down he has coached the last couple weeks, if SE makes a change I will not be upset.

Glynn is either hurt or mentally fragile right now. He looks like a shell of himself.
