uneblinstu's postgame chatter: vol 11; ed 34 - Big Ten Tournament vs. Wisconsin

[uneblinstu]

Man, can't ask for much more from this group. They fought to the bitter end. There are many questions to be asked about this season, but these past three days have made this fan proud. We all probably know what's coming. Now we wait.

 

- Another masterful job in the paint, completely befuddled Happ.

- Glynn was spectacular today. Couple big misses down the stretch that will probably haunt his dreams for a while.

- Thought Thor and Trueblood were solid again. Thor with a couple masterpiece defensive plays in the clutch. Big 3, too.

- Palmer didn't have what he did the past couple nights, might have been the difference in the game.

- Only played 6 guys tonight. Pretty gutty effort, I must say.

- I don't know what's next, but I'm pretty proud of this group.

- That 5 point swing on the goaltend/technical foul/3 point make loomed pretty large.

We can analyze motivation, hustle and all the other intangible factors in basketball, but after Copeland's injury, when James Palmer Jr. and Glynn Watson made shots, Nebraska won. When one of them didn't, we lost, and that was more often than not.

 

ON EDIT:

Goodness, I hope I can watch these guys again this year.

The kids should be proud.  Fought like a bunch of junk yards dogs this tournament.

Bill Moos statement in 45 minutes.  Tim to remain head coach?

[Nebrasketball1979]

Great effort, fight, and spirit from this team.  Three games of excellent game plans and coaching.  Copeland's injury derailed the season but these kids fought like hell to try and salvage it.  I believe they did salvage the NIT and hope they get to go play in MSG and bring home a title.  if Tim is gone, we better damn well have a home run hire lined up because Tim has built a great foundation here and I hope he gets to see it through.  Rome wasn't built in a day and apparently Nebrasketball can't be built in a 100 years but man, we feel close.

If he gets fired less than 45 minutes after that game Moos is trash.

likely not. i think he's had  a replacement lined up already.

It makes me think he is coming back due to timing, right?

If he is let go in the next 30 minutes via statement then we absolutely have someone (or we're screwed)

It has to be a statement of support for Miles or he has someone...it just has to be.

I'm hoping your Washut retweet is the one. That he's jut saying "nothing until after the postseason", which means he's still likely gone but we don't have access to a replacement. Or maybe he really wants to chew on it some more.

Tell you what--timmy coached well with a short  bench. I'd hire him and tell him he only get 7 schollies and 2 walkons. He'd probably get national CoY. 

[AuroranHusker]

Heart of a Champion by the Huskers. Glynn was making a ton of shots, if only that front-end of the 1-and-1 had gone down. That final stretch could've been epic. Oh, well. On to the N.I.T. and hopefully a HOME GAME! GBR !!!

It’s either gotta be a “you’re my man” or “wait and see”

 

If it’s a “see ya later” I will be pissed.

does Mile have a year left?

I plan on watching replays of the Iowa, Rutgers, and Maryland many times until next season. The grit, heart, emotion, etc that the guys played with reminded me of 2014. I can't say enough of our guys. Just a shot here or there, a block called instead of a charge, and we're playing MSU and probably a lock already for the play-in games.

so he's fired if he doesn't make it then but if he makes it he's fired later. well...that's pretty odd. 

glad to know someone's career is in the hands of the NIT selection committee. On the other hand, I think we're likely in the NIT now. 

[TourneyBound]

Very odd. When you factor in Ronnie Green’s statement last night I gotta lean to moos giving miles a show of support. If it’s to just say they will evaluate Tim and his future after NIT play wouldn’t that kinda be the plan already and why make a statement about it

So you don't have fans going apeshit speculating about what will happen

[Bugeaters1]

I didn't get to watch the game, only got to listen to about the last four minutes of the game. and it sounded like JPJ's legs were shit.
