[FredsSlacks]

i think palmer will start, but hard to pick him over watson as our leading scorer.

I'll guess:

 

Glynn

Isaac

James

Isaiah

Palmer looks good, guys. They love him. I don't know if he'll be the leading scorer, but I wouldn't be shocked by it if it happens.

Why did he leave Miami?

Wasn't a good fit. They recruited over him and his PT went down instead of up as a sophomore (and the 'Canes went to the Sweet 16 that year I believe anyway, so they were pretty stacked). Miles said Miami wanted to keep him but he felt like a change was best for him.

Can I ask what you mean when you say you predict someone else starts at shooting guard by Big Ten play?  Do you mean someone besides the guy Robin is guessing will lead us in points?

 

Who are you thinking will be starting at shooting guard at the start of the season who will be replaced by Big Ten play, and who do you think will replace him?

 

I guess I figured someone like Thomas Allen or Nana would overtake him at some point, but with the recent comments from the media on the inside (Robin and Lee) it sounds like Palmer is legit.

 

This certainly does not stop the hype train: http://www.omaha.com/huskers/mens-basketball/style-of-miami-transfer-james-palmer-brings-comparisons-to-former/article_4768c47a-fdd0-5535-85ed-9595af32f7ea.html

I think that is the same train which many in Nebraska board before football season every year. Unfortunately, that one has a propensity for leaving the tracks before reaching its destination.

Thanks for the clarification.  Wasn't sure if you were talking about Palmer or someone else like Taylor.

There were more than one thread like this as we meandered towards the start of the season.  I smiled and then thought it would be kind of cool to bump the thread for an in-season retrospective look...

Pts: Palmer

Reb: Copeland

Asst: Watson

Stls: Watson

Blks: Roby

 

This is where we are sitting currently.

At this point I'd have Jim Palmer as a 1st team B1G selection. Granted I'm bias, but that kid's a straight up Baller.

Palmer has been great, seems as if those that saw him last year and pre-season this year and predicted a great year were spot on.
