Remember when we thought Trev had some tough decisions in front of him? Not anymore…

People forget that many riverboat gamblers ended up being fish food.

Purgatory or 1st circle of hell. Doesn't matter were just splitting hairs.

I'm sure that a lot of coaches will be beating down Nebraska's door next March, since it's a football school that absolutely sucks at football and the basketball job puts you on a career trajectory to end up at Southern Miss, San Jose State, or permanent retirement.

We’re flush with cash now though, & still the only game in town. I still think the chance of Fred weathering the storm are still FAR greater than Scott’s. A casual glance at the schedule looks like we’ll be favored in maybe 3-4 games, then Trev will officially have to clean house. And please spare me the Urban Meyer talk…

What? You mean Urban Meyer has been seen in Lincoln? Can Danny Manning be far behind?

I'm not sure what you're looking at, but what I'm seeing are year-over-year improvements 

 

4 percentage points better than his first season and then nearly 5 percentage points better than his second year.

Calling it! If they do move on from Frost the new coach will be Bob Stoops. Gonna take another Bob to take us to the promised land

And rumor has it that Rick Majerus and Elvis Presley were seen having brunch at the Cornhusker this morning!

My daughter is in pre-school and has seen a total of just 39 football and basketball wins combined.  Talk about breaking her in…

Keep up that level of improvement and you're on pace to go undefeated in year 10.

On the plus side. No onside kick in college basketball.

What ticks me off most is now it is going to feel like forever until basketball season.

Excellent news.  I'll plan to enjoy a 0.37 winning percentage this season then!

Does this mean Fred's job is safe?  Can't afford to fire both of them can we?  (hopefully they both turn it around and we get to experience joy in Husker men's sports)

NORTHWESTERN HOOPS RALLIES PAST NEBRASKA

 

.... In one of the oddest decisions of the basketball season, with Nebraska up 11 midway through the second half, Coach Fred Hoiberg ordered his team to only shoot half-court hook shots for the remainder of the game. Northwestern outscored Nebraska 14-0 from there to win.

 

"I thought it was a smart call," Northwestern Coach Chris Collins said. "We weren't ready for it. I mean our guys were doubled over laughing after a couple of their airballs, and that really affected our offense the rest of the way. Fred is a great coach, always thinking outside the box, and I hope he never leaves Nebraska."

 

"I really thought we could deliver the knock-out blow with a couple of Globetrotters-like shots and take the fight out of Northwestern," Hoiberg said. "We'd had our best week of practice on those shots, so we decided before the game to go for it. If I had to do it over again, though, I probably would rethink that decision."
