Chadron St. vs. Nebraska Exhibition Game Thread

[OmahaHusker]

I like the effort on the offensive glass, especially when it seems like all our guys are taller than Chadron States center

Halftime.  Thank you to the student body, for showing up...not.

Lot of positives so far.  A few things I can rag on, but won't.  

Effort is there.

This is definitely not a high energy game.  Crowd is pretty out of it. And as you say, the students are pretty much no shows.  Probably out enjoying the weather.

My enthusiasm is trying to last as long as it can…. But…. Uhm….

At first blush it looks like a roster filled with Chuckers & very few shooters, this is where our size across the board will “fill in the gaps”…right???

There is a reason why this team is picked near the bottom.

Oh my God Griesel just killed a man

KT doesn’t belong on a D1 basketball court. Zero concept of spacing or Team Basketball IQ. Just an individual out there trying to make individual plays.

Gary needs starter minutes for sure.  Goodness.

If he’s not going to make 3’s…..just stick Dawson at the two and let him

use his athletiscm to defend.  Tominaga offers nothing.

Anyone know how much CS is getting paid for this game?

[nustudent]

I’ve seen enough to want Lawrence over Tominaga

I honestly think Oleg could be a decent player if he stuck around to his rs JR year.

Still excited for the year but will probably be reselling my final four tickets

Agree.  

And I want to be clear no one gets too carried away with what I mean by decent… bench/rotation player who can come in and get ya 8 and 5, change some shots on D, etc… maybe knock down a 3 here and there and hit his FTs.

Glad I wasn’t able to watch then lol.

Perimeter defense needs to improve.  Chadron was able to drive the lane and we don’t appear to have rim protectors.  On the plus side, there was ball movement and quite a few assists plus some offensive rebound put backs.

These games always feel like clunkers even when we have a decent team. Guys feeling each other out. Hard to take away anything.

Yeah don’t get me started. I’m not entirely sure what the theory/concept was there especially early in the 1st. Seems like we’re deliberately allowing straight line drives from the wing with the goal of helping up high from the post to take a charge. We’re gonna allow back side posts dunk after dunk, or the backside corner 3.
