2023 PF Omaha Biliew -> Iowa St

Check out these items from the Rivals link above:

 

In a recruiting world filled with sales pitches and false promises, Biliew said the genuine feeling he got from the Huskers was as valuable as anything else.

“That they mean what they say and that they’re still the same people,” Biliew said of what he learned about NU’s staff during his visit. “I expect the truest out of them because they mean what they say. They hold me to a high standard, and I appreciate them for that.”

 

The weekend didn’t change where the Huskers stood on his list of potential schools. It just solidified their spot as one of the top contenders from here on out.

“I mean, I’m always going to hold them dear, because it’s home, and they’re always going to stay there,” Biliew said. “They showed a lot of love, and it’s appreciated.”

That kind of statement is normally very important with parents.

Here are a couple guesses:

   1. Our biggest competition is the NBA, not a blue blood; and

   2. If he doesn't/can't reclassify to 2022, NBA probably wins.

The developmental league, I presume ?

Wait.  He's trying to reclassify to 2022?  Is that confirmed or is this just conjecture?

 There’s some talk about Him moving to the prep school in order to expedite his career a year while also playing better competition. We will see if the former happens though.

Name drops Kentucky, Oregon, and Arkansas.  Not an official Top 3 list, but also never a good thing to not be mentioned at all during an interview.

We're out in regards to Biliew. 

[Navin R. Johnson]

Can we demand that he change his first name then, or is that Creighton's job? (or UNO)

[colhusker]

Guessing he has been paying attention to this years product.

Good lord I would hope so.  NBA scouts should be concerned about his mental makeup if he was still considering us.

Reading the whole quote I feel as if we're taking this the wrong way. 

 

“Before the season, I took a couple of unofficials, but I am trying to focus on the season now," he said. "Once this high school season gets done, I will look at setting some visits with the schools talking to me, like Arkansas, Oregon, Kentucky.”

Then I imagine the author asked about those schools, so he elaborated on them. He's already taken an official visit here, so he didn't mention us by name since it seems the question was more framed around visits. 

Just my thoughts. Might not be done yet.

I think our chances gets slimmer and slimmer with the amount of losses that Nebraska especially not even being competitive in some games.  Not even sniffing post season is not helping our cause either

Yeah, because we don’t have players like Omaha Biliew!

[roscoe]

Well, huskers have played well Biliew expectations this season. Best chance to get him is to use that as some sort of NIL deal?

We can put this thread to rest

Not a surprise, but #Nebrasketball is no longer in the mix for 2023 five-star Omaha Biliew. https://t.co/wemCTZV0xg

We couldn't pay this kid 1mil with NIL of his name alone?

Maybe if his name was Piedmontese Bilew

Do we have a chance the second time around and would he even start for us at the 3 or the 4 as I’m guessing he’s not looking to be a bench player after barely playing this last year in Ames
