Huskerpapa Posted August 5, 2017 Report Posted August 5, 2017 The article was in this mornings LJS, but I cannot locate it the web version. The statement that Tim made regarding Isaac was short and to the point. He will not be eligible until the end of the fall semester. What a bummer. I question how much Gill will be able to provide as well. His injury was more severe and rehab is ongoing. Recovery from a knee injury is person to person, but goodness, expecting him to pay more than spot minutes is likely unfair. Good news is that our nine or ten deep is still pretty darn talented.

Huskerpapa Posted August 5, 2017 Report Posted August 5, 2017 Miles also noted that Copeland will not be eligible to play until after the end of the fall semester because of his transfer from Georgetown. Quote
Jacob Padilla Posted August 5, 2017 Report Posted August 5, 2017 I'm guessing Jim Brusnahan didn't exactly provide the full context behind the statement. Of course Copeland isn't eligible, until and unless Nebraska wins its appeal to the NCAA. As of now, he isn't eligible until after the season. But that could change if they get lucky with their appeal. More recently Miles has said on record that they are still going through the process of appealing his eligibility. Quote

He’s a tough city-kid. And, Glynn Watson really has improved his body in the off-season.” hhcmatt 1 Quote

The lack of emphasis or maybe mention of the appeal process indicates that "get lucky" is a good description of our odds. Quote

He’s a tough city-kid. This was sort of the evaluation I was hoping to hear about Palmer. It isn't directly stated but I'm implying from this statement that Palmer is the type of player who can earn points at the FT line. It's been a deficiency of this team for the last two years and Tai and Ed were our two starters who excelled the most. Jordy actually had the highest FT rate for the team so his shift to a starting position/more minutes should help as well Red Don and dustystehl 2 Quote

With no disrespect to TP who was/is a very good player, I do not necessarily want the next TP. I want a player that is on yet a different level, perhaps that next Lue...just saying! colhusker 1 Quote
hhcmatt Posted August 7, 2017 Report Posted August 7, 2017 Jason Shultis isn't on the roster page so I'd guess he's not playing this year. Quote

I was told toward the end of the season that Malcolm Laws and Tanner Borchardt were the only guys they were bringing back. Costello and Trueblood are an upgrade on Shultis and Elradi in the walk-on talent department. khoock and hhcmatt 2 Quote
Huskerpapa Posted August 8, 2017 Report Posted August 8, 2017 Since the mainstream news media is not going to do it, how about someone on this site securing a press pass (or whatever it takes) and start setting up and taking interviews with the players. It is time... Quote
