In State Team

[basketballjones]

Can someone help me list all the dudes playing D1 bball right now that came from Nebraska?

 

Chucky Hepburn (Wisconsin)

Hunter Saillis (Gonzaga)

Baylor Scheierman (SD State)

John Tonje (Colorado State)

Max Murrell (Stanford)

Shereef Mitchell (Creighton)

Sam Griesel (ND State)

 

That’s 7 off the top of my head. Are these dudes, plus filling in positional gaps from elsewhere, better than the team we have?

Charlie Easley doesn’t lose to Washington State!!

[hhcmatt]

On a semi-related note Washington State got themselves a decent coach in the post Moos era.

Also, all of these guys are Huskers if Danny Nee is still coach. Baba Booey!

Tim Miles didn’t either. Yes he recruited Chucky and Hunter. But did very little in-state recruiting before that and did his best to ignore the high school coaches in the state. 
Mike Daum, Justin Patton, Tyler Hagedorn, Treshawn Thurman, Tredeon Hollins, Mike Gesell, Nick Billingsley, Triston Simpson, Akoy Agau, Aguek Arop, Jalen Bradley, Mitch Hahn, etc.

99% aren’t! 
 

Just has always seemed to me randos from out of state/out of country get a benefit of the doubt our in state kids never get. 
 

My opinion… if you could truly make in state kids feel valued and welcome, you could spend a SIGNIFICANT more amount of time recruiting special players from out of state. Find your role players here. 
 

Also… if you aren’t going to be very good, I’d rather be not very good with local kids I know that bad mercenaries year after year.

Oh I’m with you 100%. I know for a fact we’ve lost on a lot of Nebraska kids because we either showed no interest or we showed half-ass interest.

Miles didn't at the beginning. He was starting to fix that but it wasn't in time to reap anything from it.

He’d be perfect for this team….

Tip of the cap to John Cook who’s able to recruit to the same cold barren wasteland that proves to be so elusive to our Men’s programs…

What difference does this make currently? Tim hasn’t been here for a few seasons. 
 

This is like football fans still bringing up Pelini

Didn’t mean to make it seem like I was bashing Miles. Doc didn’t do a good job of recruiting local players either. Just pointing out that there have been a lot of talented in-state players who have had very successful college careers at other schools. We could’ve put together some really good teams with those guys over the years. 

[Navin R. Johnson]

A lot of teams missed out on Baylor Scheierman.  6' 7" and can play the point, good passer and although a bit inconsistent on his shot, has great range. SD State got a good one.
