I’m sure Fred thinks Lakes is better 

 

I don't even care that Lakes is playing.  At this point, I wouldn't mind playing any of our end of bench players.  What could be worse than down 24?

Verge just checked himself out like Willie Mayes Hayes doing push-ups after a pop up

[throwback]

Remember when we clowned Rutgers in Lincoln last year? Yeah. So does Rutgers.

41 years old going to games since I was 7 and this might be the saddest game I’ve ever seen.

Embarrassing.  This staff has had a chance and failed miserably.

Either Matt A’s identification of talent is an absolute disaster or Fred literally can’t coach. 
 

Either scenario is scary as hell but at minimum one of the two is true. 

Pretty sure both 

[HuskerBB]

We just might give up 100 to Rutgers

[cornfed24-7]

When the announcers are musing how a team stays focused knowing the dumpster fire that is Nebraska Basketball is coming  up on thier schedule it has to be the bottom right?!?

We're only 11 points away from being down as much as you are old.

We can't even post the yearly... "but wait until next year" thread because that would probably be more bleak than this.

Been watching since 1965, and this is the worst coached team I have seen in those  years.

I have been watching NU Basketball since the late 1960's and I don't think I have ever seen a team play with less intensity on a consistent basis than this one.    Losing obviously contributes to that - but if you want to play college BB you need to play hard - and if you want to coach college BB you need to be able to get a team to play with intensity.

This thread is doing more coaching than Hoiberg has done all game today.

And a call from a 402 number shows up on Mark Turgeon's agent's phone.

 

You know, I would have said that 2 years ago and replaced Mark's name with Fred.  This is a jinxed program.  I'm convinced this is a place where coaches come to ruin their career.

Rock Bottom gets over used on this board. But this might be the moment we've all been waiting for...I think we can stay at rock bottom but there is no more digging to do.

The only thing left for this year is Doc Sadler crying at a press conference. Sadly, it’s trending in that direction. 
 

Im guessing the only thing that may save Hoiberg at this point is having a bad football coach in North Stadium.

Keon sighting.

I know due to the financial situation Hoiberg is probably safe, but damn, every time I watch them play my eyes  tell me he shouldn’t be safe at all. 

I honestly don’t know how Hoiberg can survive this dumpster fire of a season, unless there is some sort of catching fire like the Tim Miles catching fire to close the season of their NCAA Tournament run. And that’s saying a lot, because we just saw Frost get another season after going 3-9 at a self-proclaimed football school with only 1 win vs a Power5 opponent.

Boo. 

[hskr4life]

That Terry guy for Rutgers had more rebounds than...

 

Wilcher, Webster, Lakes, McGowens, Verge, and Keisei.

[cipsucks]

Well, Jerry Bush never had a winning season at NU. Genetics, baby!

Nice reward for those of us who suck around. He doesn't really *do* anything but one thing he does have going for him is that he's not the other guys.

Thanks for looking that up...I was wondering, but then I feared putting in more effort than the Huskers did.
