Wow, if he transfers, comments like this sure as hell don't help. Don't forget guys like Tai Webster and Frank Kaminsky didn't exactly light it up their first two seasons.

That’s great. He may be good next year or the year after. He’s not good right now though. We will be fine without him.

I hope Deverell's departure doesn't keep us out of the Dance. Wait, what year is this?

yikes, if true, this is an impressive "panic move". 

 

I guess it's time to and see how it shakes out. The psychological damage to the team is probably the bigger danger here.

And we don't miss Ed Morrow's rebounding or putbacks...gotcha...

Seems the answer will be to start Duby and hope to get 25-30 productive minutes out of Duby and Tanner. I could see a few minutes for Jack here and there, but otherwise, see if we can protect the rim and guard Watkins with our true 5's before we thrust Roby into a spot he's not ready for. Save Roby's time at the 5 for the end of each half and let him spell Cope for another 5 minutes in the middle of each half.

I will start out by saying that I 100% do not want Jordy to transfer.  I think that he has a huge upside and I hope these rumors are not true.  We will need him in the future.  Not just games this year, but future years as well.

 

I will say however, that of our entire rotation that we currently play, this isn't HUGE HUGE.  It's big because he is a BIG and depth will be a concern.  However, he isn't putting up 15-20 PPG each night.

 

We will miss Jordy if this is true.  We certainly need him.  Please lord let this be a rumor....

1620 just said Jordy is not with the team this weekend.

Sounds like it's not quite a done deal, but he won't be on the trip tomorrow. Would absolutely hate to see him leave.

Fricking A he was just getting his poop in a group too.  Tomorrow's game is huge.  UGH!

[royalfan]

Yeah, this sucks.  No matter what one things of his skills, this hurts us.  He was still our big with the most potential to be good at the end of the year, not to mention down the road.  Roby is going to have to play a lot more, and learn how to avoid silly fouls.  I would like to see him start the ballgame.  Go to those other guys for large minutes if we need to.  But no need to pigeonhole ourselves into playing them big minutes IMO(unless certain matchups dictate it).

[Fullbacksympathy]

On the surface, this is awful news.  I liked Jordy's upside and like Jordy as a person.  

 

That said, I can't help but wonder if this has anything to do with a certain #16 rated center's pending decision to sign with Nebraska in the next few days.  There's no way that kid wouldn't be a starter next season, regardless of Jordy's availability.

WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED??? 

 

He just had his best game of the season and is on a decent to good team. Miles hasnt benched him. Im so confused as to why.

[Huskerpapa]

Have heard this most of the afternoon now.  I will hold my tongue for now, but...nope, I will hold my tongue.

Not sure what that is in reference to. I was pissed Ed Morrow decided to transfer.

Agreed, the timing is weird. It could explain why Miles continued to start him. Maybe there are family issues, health, etc.

[Bugeaters1]

But this isn't offical until BR tweets it.

Jordy's no Daumy. Time to go with the Flo. If you're not gonna be the Heiman, why bother?

None of the above from what I heard. Unless you count family issues as his family blaming Miles for his lack of development.  That’s what I’ve been told is the source of Jordy looking to transfer.

I'm basically saying that Ed had flaws, yet we miss him and didn't have a better center behind him. Same basic idea with Jordy.

I hope you are right because if not we are really going to be hurting next year!!!

[HuskerPower #nato73]

This would hurt. He was effective against Wisconsin.  Just being hard to move out of the middle is worth something.  For those clamoring for Roby (and I love Roby) he can struggle on post defense.   If it is true, not a great thing to do to a team on which you are a starter.

[Minnesota_Husker]

Well, crap.

The former is twice the player of the latter in their respective true sophomore seasons.
