You can’t spell NIT without Nebraska...

 

You can when Nebraska can't even get to 0.500.

Yup.

Going to be a long couple weeks. Will be glad when this train wreck comes to an end. 

 

Hopefully the administration does the right thing and moves in a different direction.

Foul Feliz… a 75% ft shooter but won't foul Happ?

This is who we are now ... feels like Watson has given up mentally. And I think that says a lot about why we struggle with leadership. I like the battle I see from Thor, Borchardt ... I feel like Allen is close to saying "I'm out of here." Gonna be hard to see more than 2-3 wins down the stretch ... if that.

JPJ hasn't had a single game in B1G play where he has shot 42% from the field or better. His high water mark was 41.7% (5-12) against Indiana.

Made free-throws are for chumps...real men launch off-balance threes from 27 feet 

[Handy Johnson]

We need about 5 more talented Tanner Borchardts...

I'd let Tanner coach the team too

I'm getting same look/feel on Allen.

Didn't realize the coincidence and symbolism at play today.....Groundhog Day.

Tanner and Thor played well.  Tom played well other than the first five minutes.  Isaiah was passive and somewhat disappeared.  James scored, but took a lot of shots and missed way too many free throws.  Glynn was a no-show.  Overall we are playing like dog poop right now.  Note that I talked about individuals.  The concept of team play, specifically on offense is MIA.  Once again, missed bunnies, missed free throws, questionable shot selection all haunted us once again.  FRUSTRATION abounds.  Five losses in a row.

Is that why Palmer isn't driving angry?

half of which were taken off balanced, covered, and with less than 3 seconds on the clock. 

 

We literally had no court awareness at all today. 

 

These guys are done.

I'm on record as liking Timmy. But he's done. And it looks like the team knows it.

Lame duck

Sipple says this is turning into a very easy decision for Moos. 

 

Cant disagree.  Miles is coaching himself out of a job. Will probably find a solid mid major job at less pay. That’s probably more in his wheel house.
