uneblinstu Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 Not much else to say. They played hard. They didn’t have enough to get it done. I still feel really good about the direction of the program. On to Ohio State! REDZONEDAN, Red Don and Husker Hoops Penitent 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colhusker Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 Played hard, short the horse, ran out of gas. Season is a bit like washing ones hair, lather, rinse repeat except it's play hard, run out of gas, repeat.

Husker Hoops Penitent Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 Step by step, Ouedraogo is steadily become a legitimate Big Ten post player. His attitude and work ethic seem very good, and considering his age, his future looks very promising. Here's hoping Mack is ready to go vs. OSU!

atskooc Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 We outshot them from the field, three, and the line, and we lost by 12. That's almost impressive. ReidStag and tcp 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hhcmatt Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 From UNL *-Yvan Ouedraogo reached double figures for the fifth time and the second straight game with 11 points, matching his high against Texas A&M-Corpus Christi on Dec. 29. It marked the first time this season he has reached double figures in consecutive games. *-Yvan Ouedraogo posted his second career double-double with 11 points and 10 rebounds. He his just the fourth Husker freshman to record multiple double-doubles. *-With 10 rebounds tonight, Ouedraogo moved into sole possession of second place on NU’s freshman rebound list with 166. He passed Dave Hoppen (161, 1982-83), Venson Hamilton (161, 1995-96) and John Turek (162, 2001-02). *-Tonight marked the seventh time this season that Thorir Thorbjarnarson hit at least three 3-pointers in a game this season. *-Nebraska has put at least three players in double figures in 22 of 27 games this season. *-Nebraska was without starting point guard Cam Mack, who missed the game because of Illness.

Huskerpapa Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 Best game tonight of Yvan's young career despite playing with back spasms. Liked the grit and fight. Defense played pretty good. You know what this season is like by simply seeing Frazier hit the 3/4 court 3-pointer to end the half...good grief. thrasher31 and jayschool 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AuroranHusker Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 (edited) Pretty impressive that only Aleks Maric is ahead of a 17 year old Yvan -- with Big Al's 169 boards -- as a FROSH. Dude keeps workin' & dividends are paying off. He'll be a rock by the time he's finished at Dear Old Nebraska U.

thrasher31 Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 I have been super impressed with Yvan these past few games. Gone against Tillman (one of the most experienced bigs on the league), the Wisconsin bigs, and tonight Kofi(who is a tank) and has played well against all. Finishing still is coming along but it's improving. Defense has been the highlight for me. Against MSU there was like a minute-minute+30 stretch where him and Tillman just went at each other. He held his own against a physically dominant guy in Kofi tonight. Fight is there which tells me these guys have the right attitude about the game. Hopefully they can get one on senior night.

B-town hoopsfan Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 Not for sure which coach works with the posts or Ivan more importantly but he’s earning his pay. Last five games or so Ivan has played you have really seen some growth. thrasher31, Silverbacked1 and HolyBobpilgrimage 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobcat402 Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 (edited) I’m hoping Yvan continues to develop and turns into our version of Patric Young.. similar build to Yvan, developed into a solid bruiser of a big that controlled the paint for those mid 2010 Florida teams. Very impressed with his Freshman season ! Edited February 25, 2020 by bobcat402 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swan88 Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 You've gotta' admire this team. They are short-handed but keep on fighting. They get beat up and keep on battling. They deal with one adversity . . . and another follows. And they are still within a few breaks of pulling out multiple wins against high-level competition . . . and on the road to boot. There is more to be admired here than you'll see on the vast majority of teams. Winning is fun . . . but this is impressive.

I am amazed at how encouraged I am with these guys and coaching stuff, during a 7-20 season. I see how it all works when the right guys with the right experience are here.
