Something that has gone completely unnoticed is the fact that Henry Burt was listed at 6'4" on the roster last year and is now 6'7"!

On pace to be 7'1" by the time he graduates

Is that with or without a COVID year?

Never thought I would see Beaker on this message board.  Gonzo, yes, but never Beaker.

Kinda, sorta strange to see these days.  Note, the same style and color of shoes are being worn by the entire team.

Old school.

HOLY MOLY!

Fred must be standing in a Ditch.

 

Sam Hoiberg is the shortest player on the roster (6' 0").

I mean looking at this it does seem like Burt grew quite a bit - good for him. That's true dedication to the program and his personal development. His eye level is exactly the same height as Eli Rice's who's listed at 6'8". So as far as looking over fences and traps, they're the same height. 

IDK FELLAS - THIS LOOKS LIKE A GOOD LOOKING BASKETBALL TEAM BABY

Are we at the drawing lines on team photos stage of the season already?  wow.

 

...also I did not find any tippy-toe standing anywhere in there.

Well then...get to drawing!!  I need some lines.

[Norm Peterson]

If you're one of the people who pays attention to who's wearing the red jerseys, it looks like ...

 

Rienk

Josaih

Brice

Jamarques

Boogie

 

Perhaps more noteworthy than who's in red is the fact I don't see Keisei in any color jersey in either of these clips.

 

Injury report?

 

 

[Norm Peterson]

All is well. Scrimmage today. Keisei photographed in red jersey.

 

 

[Norm Peterson]

Red jerseys, from what I can tell (and I don't KNOW that jersey color means anything), include:

 

Keisei

CJ

Brice

Josiah

MATAR!!!

 

Grey jerseys included:

 

Boogie

Ahron

Jamarques

Eli

Cale

Juwan

[Norm Peterson]

Cale Jacobsen be like, well that shot's missing, better get back on D.

What is critical at this juncture is who can (and cannot) play with others; also, getting to know your teammates and what they can and cannot do.

I simply cannot determine who the starters are based on current practices.  

Now, if this would be a week before our first legitimate game, then yeah, okay.

That said, I think our first five on the floor will be Josiah, Keisei, JaMarcus, Brice and Rienk.  First subs in, Juwan and CJ.

As the game and season progresses we will see the value of our depth.  Heck, we're not even mentioning two players that we were enchanted with at this point last year...Blaise and Lloyd.

[Huskerpapa]

Also, sorta have to get used to Josiah wearing Daisy Dukes.

Was thinking the same, basic thing. I wasn't a big fan of the gauchos Cookie Miller used to wear. But I'm not exactly a fan of the throwback 1950s Milan, Indiana gym shorts either. Seems like there should be a happy medium between mid-calf and butt cheeks hanging out.
