uneblinstu’s postgame chatter: vol 14; ed 23 - vs. Northwsstern

[uneblinstu]

It’s the under 4 timeout. I’m going home. In a season full of disappointment, disheartening results, baffling play and embarrassing effort, this one may just take the cake.

[HuskerFever]

Congrats, Fred. That's all I got.

That Was the worst I've seen from them this year. That's a very low bar. 

[Cazzie22]

Not to diminish what Northwestern did today but that was a disgraceful performance. 

[hskr4life]

Lowest of the low.  We're paying someone that much money to be the bottom of the bottom of major college basketball.  There isn't a single person out there that, given the same team, wouldn't have the same number of wins Fred currently has this year.

 

Embarrassing.  Have some damn pride.  Play hard at least.  My goodness.

Highest paid coach in Nebraska basketball history.

 

Worst performing coach in Nebraska basketball history.

 

Talk about return on investment.

I always forget. It's either "password" or "rockbottom".

If we lose to NW on the road by 15 in a few weeks... would we consider the team improved?

[Norm Peterson]

I thought that little run to end the game really gives us something to build on for the rest of the season. If we can just play against the other team‘s walk-ons and deep bench, I feel like we could do pretty well.

[Huskerpapa]

Pathetic!

[Bugeaters1]

 

[throwback]

Sigh.

As coaches and players on a team that haven't won a Big Ten game, a game that is on TV in front of a home crowd...how do you NOT COME PREPARED TO PLAY!!!

Flippin lazy defense.  All day long.  Hard for a fan to invest in a program when the coaches and players don't give a crap.  

[Huskerpapa]

Hoiberg should be flat out embarrassed.

On the brighter side, Fred to tapped into some Yogi-isms on his post game interview with Kent, just to make things more interesting.  Here are some highlights:

KP: This extends your losing streak against DI majors to 18 now.
FH: Yeah, It’s like déjà vu all over again.

KP: Were you suprised by the crowd attendance today, considering your team's record?
FH: No one comes here nowadays, it’s too crowded.

KP: How about your team's mental readiness going into today's game?
FH: The game is 90% mental and the other half is physical.

KP: It seemed like Wilcher's 3's kept you in the game early, then suddenly, Northwestern turned this into a 22 halftime deficit.  What happened?
FH: We made too many wrong mistakes.

KP: Doc didn't seem to engaged on the sideline today.  How would you explain that?

FH: Yeah, he usually takes a two-hour nap from one to four.

KP: How do you explain some of Verge's early-possession shot selections?
FH: With that shot clock, It gets late early out here.
 

KP: I know this was a disappointing day, where does your team go from here?
FH: When you come to a fork in the road, take it.

KP: Coach, is there something you can share with fans that they can take away, looking forward to the rest of the season and next year?
FH: The future ain’t what it used to be.

[Bugeaters1]

Good satire, that was worth a laugh.

That was me playing pick up games at the rec, daring some dude to shoot it. Go ahead, I’ll give that one to you. They almost always missed. But then, they weren’t D1 basketball players either.

[thrasher31]

On a positive note, Keon Edwards made his first 3 after starting his nebraska career 0-13. Also liked his drive baseline, just didn't finish. I wouldn't be shocked to see an uptick in minutes Wednesday

Does anyone have January 2, 2024 for the next conference win?
