bigFRED Posted June 22, 2018 Report Share Posted June 22, 2018 Okay, but real question. Taking into account Tim and our school's relationship with the Wade family, why aren't we all over this kid now?? He's obviously going to be a good player and is already, and having pride of going to the same school as your parents is a real thing. We get all over him now showing him love, doesn't that put us in a good spot here in 2 years? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having your kid go to your new wife's college doesn't seems like something that would happen. 2. High end former basketball players tend to have their high end kids go to schools in big cities.. What exactly would Dwayne Wade do in Lincoln during the winter vs Miami or LA? At the end of the day I think DW's kid ends up at a blue blood if he's that good or else probably a Big East team. Tom Crean also would have an advantage. bigFRED and colhusker 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huskerpapa Posted June 23, 2018 Report Share Posted June 23, 2018 Yes, but Wade is comfortable in Lincoln, and he owns Husker gear. His ex-wife [I believe] has upper Midwest ties. And I have no clue what that means. But D-Wade does know we have fantastic facilities and fan support. So heck, make an offerry and see what happens.

FredsSlacks Posted June 24, 2018 Report Share Posted June 24, 2018 doesn't seem to have any offers yet. i would assume we'd at least have a shot given that wade has been on campus multiple times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colhusker Posted August 21, 2018 Report Share Posted August 21, 2018 Will we get him? Most likely not, but without at least offering the answer was 100% no. At least now we have a sliver of a chance, glad we offered. Silverbacked1 and trickey 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
