Faux Mike Peltz 510 Posted April 21, 2020 Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 This situation is frustrating. I still have 100 percent belief and confidence in Coach and his staff, but it sure does seem a lot of the “groundwork” that we laid this past season are leaving...

And being replaced with better talent. The entire point of coaching is to recruit talent better than what you have. The guys we had are going to places like South Alabama, Pacific, etc. We are in the Big 10 and need Big 10 players. They were bodies in a lineup and we will continue to get more and more players in that fit the mold. 49r, cornfed24-7, Coaches kid and 12 others 2 1 12 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Per Chris Heady. So roughly the equivalent of 100x more than we brought back heading into last season! Also, I agree it sucks to see so many kids leaving but at the end of the day, we won 7 games last year. Things will get better. Handy Johnson and busticket 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I wish we could gain some stability or consistency but do you really want the consistency to be what we saw last year?Fred put it together with a rag tag. In my opinion the only guys I really wanted back(who played)based on talent was Cam, Yvan and maybe Cross for depth.I am a bit higher on Cross than some but he struck me as a 10 minute guy unless he really changed his body.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Husker Hoops Penitent 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nustudent 1,324 Posted April 21, 2020 Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 (edited) He wasn't a bad player. We've had plenty that had little to offer over the years that were at the end of the bench and he's not one of those types. So I wouldn't have minded him sticking around. But I don't see where he plays more than 10 minutes a game (if that) moving forward. Edited April 21, 2020 by nustudent Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Red Rum 544 Posted April 21, 2020 Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 Man I hope this is just growing pains. If we keep having this much turnover I'm gonna have to turn into one of those "lets go red" people. I'm terrible with names. I can't be learning 10 new names every year. jason2486 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Faux Mike Peltz 510 Posted April 21, 2020 Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 I’ve resigned myself to the thinking that college basketball (and football) have changed to this transfer in/out as the new normal. It’s happening all over, not just NU. At times, I was super frustrated by Cross. I didn’t think his motor or want to always was set at a high level. But then he’d show some flashes where I’m like, OK! We can work with this. Thought he had some nice skills that could continue to develop. Best of luck to him! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Husker Hoops Penitent 79 Posted April 21, 2020 Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 Disappointed, surely, but I trust Hoiberg. I sure hope he has a couple of impact players on the line. I'd be very crestfallen if Sanogo doesn't sign. Beside him, who is most likely? Any guesses? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Husker Hoops Penitent 79 Posted April 21, 2020 Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 I thought, and would have preferred Arop, rather than Cross leaving. I don't understand how Arop hangs on when he rarely saw minutes on the worst team in the league. Curious. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

thrasher31 498 Posted April 21, 2020 Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 I kinda thought this would happen. Him or arop. I think Arop knows a redshirt year would do him well and Cross wants to play meaningful minutes. Arop has a long ways to go, but I'm not questioning Fred after Thor was the only holdover from last year and made leaps and bounds improvements. Kinda bummed but he'll do well down a level or at somewhere where he plays a lot at the 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
