We are in a world of hurt

This game isn't a surprise to me; 44 points 35 minutes into the game is.

[GATA]

The rest of this season is gonna suck so bad. 

 

So much promise and all it will lead to is a coaching search. 

[tcp]

the end is nigh. james hurt tonight. took so many bad outside shots. kinda was worried about how our scorers would play trying to make up the lost Cope points.

just go small...brady and tanner bring nothing to the offense.

With whom?  Anakana and Thor bring nothing.  Losing Copeland and not developing or recruiting folks who can score is showing up big time.

Someone needs to take out Davison

 

This guy is willing to take on Suh. So let's go with him taking Davison out.

 

 

[Huskerone]

Not good.

tanner and brady just stand in the paint on offense and take up space. at least thor and amir can play on the perimeter

Yep, so much promise, most want to just blow it up and start over.  Rinse, repeat every 6-7 years.  Such is Nebrasketball life.

[GATA]

Sweet out of timeout set. 

[Huskerone]

Hey at least we have a nice arena and practice facility. pff.

[tcp]

place sounds like a tomb. well, we put up a fight and then a few foul calls and the wheels came off.

who has barely played tonight despite possibly being the most athletic player on the team.

[Huskerone]

Off to the "who should be our coach next year" thread.  Fun.

Thor brought a hell of a lot more than Amir tonight.  I’d rather have Thor.

We just don't have the reliable shooters to bust out of funks like this easily. seem to go hot and cold as a team. 

and right now, this team is ice cold. 

[demone]

This program is simply exhausting...

The way the game is played now you need 2 or 3 pure shooters and not just "scorers (see Webster, Petteway and Palmer).  We have not had 1 since well when?  Fort could do it years ago.

they both could have played. and thor didn't score a single point.

[GATA]

I’m not sure why I’m even annoyed by this loss. Was completely expected with Copeland out. I guess I’m just sick of the same old nonsense. 

 

Absolutely silly fouls, killer offensive rebounds because we fail to box out, terrible offensive sets/shots, zero depth, scoreless droughts, etc.  

[tcp]

they didn't quit, to their credit. they did try. but we just don't have the offensive discipline to beat good defensive teams nor the sharpshooters who can bust out of slumps. 

 

it's going to be a long rest of the season, no doubt. And we've lost our home court now. 

[huskerbaseball13]

Miles is done for. 

 

Without Copeland this team just doesn’t have “it” on the offensive end. The same issues that have plagued us for years. 

 

I hope Moos or whoever can land us our savior finally. 

 

 

[GATA]

Thor needs to not dribble drive for a layup. It’s painful.

Sorry GATA , yes this was expected, but to many holes in this program for being in year 7
