hhcmatt Posted December 17, 2019 Report Posted December 17, 2019 Nebraska lands the 2017 Nebraska player of the year. Will join the team for 2020-21 and will have 2 years of eligibility Quote
hskr4life Posted December 17, 2019 Report Posted December 17, 2019 Not your typical JUCO, so shouldn't have too much trouble making the leap up in class either. His numbers at WVU weren't anything to scoff at. Quote
northwillriseagain Posted December 17, 2019 Report Posted December 17, 2019 I wanted him back then and I do even more now with Fred here. He is a legit pro talent if he keeps his head in it. Quote
huskerbaseball13 Posted December 17, 2019 Report Posted December 17, 2019 This is a pretty huge pickup. This kid has an incredible ability to put the balm in the hoop. This team is going to be pretty fun to watch next year. Quote
Husker Hoops Penitent Posted December 17, 2019 Report Posted December 17, 2019 God be praised! (and I love Abdelmassih and Hoiberg more every day). Quote
49r Posted December 17, 2019 Report Posted December 17, 2019 @hhcmatt you have Teddy coming in as a Sophomore next year. That can't be right can it? https://huskerhoopscentral.com/scholarship-matrix/ hhcmatt 1 Quote
The Polish Rifle Posted December 17, 2019 Report Posted December 17, 2019 This seems significant.....expectations for next season just went up a notch. Husker Hoops Penitent 1 Quote
49r Posted December 17, 2019 Report Posted December 17, 2019 Also, perusing the scholarship matrix, man we're gonna be an old team next year and REALLY old the year after (assuming everyone sticks around). I love that! Husker Hoops Penitent and Handy Johnson 2 Quote

royalfan Posted December 17, 2019 Report Posted December 17, 2019 This is awesome. He looks serious this time. Lost a ton of that baby fat he was carrying around. He is shooting 90 percent from the line on about ten attempts per game and 42 percent from three on a lot of attempts. 32 a game in a fairly efficient manner. boom! Husker Hoops Penitent 1 Quote
AuroranHusker Posted December 17, 2019 Report Posted December 17, 2019 Go Big Red, and Go Fred! Looking forward to seeing Teddy Allen play for the Big Red. Husker Hoops Penitent 1 Quote

khoock Posted December 18, 2019 Report Posted December 18, 2019 Hate to jump ahead, but looking at next years roster (as it currently stands) got me saying OH BOYYYY! The guys are gonna have to earn their minutes! Especially with Fred's seven to eight player rotations. Quote
Husker Hoops Penitent Posted December 18, 2019 Report Posted December 18, 2019 In keeping with the comments above: where do the minutes go next year given Hoiberg's proclivity to play eight men rotations? Side note: does he tend to play eight man rotations because having quality depth is rare, or is it more a philosophy? Would like to hear from the sages on this board what the line-ups might look like next year drawing from the current twelve scholarship players scheduled to return. Cam Mack Teddy Allen Dashon Burke Shameil Stevenson Kevin Cross Yvan Ouedraogo Jervay Green Donovan Williams Thorir Thorbjarnarson Delano Banton Derrick Walker Akol Arop plus quality walk-on Charlie Easley.

Side note: does he tend to play eight man rotations because having quality depth is rare, or is it more a philosophy? Over his five or six years at Iowa State he played eight man rotations with the exception of one or two years where it looks like he played only seven regularly. I cant speak on to how depth/injuries played in to that. However, it is worth noting that he likes to have two or three guys sitting out per year. I think an eight man rotation is a safe bet going forward. millerhusker 1 Quote

royalfan Posted December 18, 2019 Report Posted December 18, 2019 My best guess at the rotation players. Locks Blanton, Allen, Mack, Burke. highly likely Stevenson Walker Not so confident. Green Cross Yvan. There is likely to be some sort of turnover creating some time for Thor. Husker Hoops Penitent 1 Quote

Since 2013 I’ve kept a running excel spreadsheet of future “depth charts” (strange, I know) and usually have a pretty good idea of what the rotation will look like. This roster might be the toughest one to figure out yet. Of course, there may be attrition before next season. Husker Hoops Penitent 1 Quote
khoock Posted December 18, 2019 Report Posted December 18, 2019 Glad to have Teddy on board. Im assuming the last scholarship goes to a sit out guy. Husker Hoops Penitent and HolyBobpilgrimage 2 Quote
