What other basketball coach at Nebraska can you think of that imploded everything around them enough where they had to take a leave of absence in the middle of the season? 

They've never won a tournament game we've had plenty of assistants that were turds this is a terrible basketball program

I did not expect a reply that would amount to figuratively dropping a full outhouse onto reunion day

Do you  think Matt A. Did a good job while here?

Some on here figured it out way before he was an ex-coach.

the volume of prune juice this would require prevents me from engaging in this activity.

It's hard to say anyone during the Hoiberg tenure has done a good job.

I'm just tired of losing man it seems like all of us on here give more of a damn about the basketball program than the ones in charge of it and it's been that way for aloooong time.

Yeah but we have alot of potential resources. There isn't 1 thing K-State has that is way better other than history and I doubt many kids today are even aware of it. Nebraska should be making the tournament and winning games here and there every few years.

 

Matt A. No doubt sucked but who hired him? Even Doc 2.0 was a dud here. I think there's just more to it.

It just seemed odd that you would make some sort of comment seemingly to marvel at people bagging on ex-coaches when it seems like you're just biding your time to be the first person to drop a mudpie on the next coach we hire.

But it's not impossible.  Consider this, for example:

1. In the 10 games this season when all five starters were available, NU gets 7 wins against 3 losses, including dominant wins over Creighton and Iowa and a final-possession screw-up by the refs in a loss to No. 1 Purdue.
2. Replacing minutes of two gone-for-the-season, highly-proficient defenders with the likes of walk-on Sam Hoiberg is not ideal--but Hoiberg & Co. managed a win over Penn St. nonetheless.

Loenser is doing a really nice job IMO.

I think this was updated to 6-4, not 7-3.  However, we did look a heck of a lot better.  We still had IU in there though, so there's no guarantee that we would have done a ton.  I do think we could have won another 1-3 games by this point though.

That is wrong too.  It's actually 5-5, here are the first ten games after Walker returned:

 

	Jan 3	42	Michigan St.	L, 74-56		Away	B10		•	30	81	38	15	7-13	0-0	1-8	2	7	3	3	1	1	1
	Dec 29	32	Iowa	W, 66-50		Home	B10		•	21	77	30	10	5-9	0-0	0-0	2	6	0	4	1	1	4
	Dec 20	213	Queens	W, 75-65		Home		MVP	•	28	145	20	13	6-8	0-0	1-2	1	5	6	1	2	2	2
	Dec 17	20	Kansas St.	L, 71-56		Semi-Away			•	27	66	25	7	1-5	0-0	5-6	1	5	3	5	2	0	4
	Dec 10	5	Purdue	L, 65-62	OT	Home	B10		•	33	109	25	14	7-13	0-0	0-0	6	4	1	2	1	0	4

	Dec 4	9	Creighton	W, 63-53		Away			•	23	116	41	22	11-16	0-0	0-0	4	4	2	3	0	0	3
	Nov 30	162	Boston College	W, 88-67		Home			•	18	168	14	10	5-6	0-0	0-0	1	4	0	0	0	0	3
	Nov 27	186	Florida St.	W, 75-58		Neutral		MVP	•	32	164	20	20	10-12	0-0	0-0	6	7	4	1	0	0	1
	Nov 25	37	Memphis	L, 73-61		Neutral			•	35	78	33	15	7-10	0-1	1-2	6	6	3	9	1	1	2

 

Iowa and Creighton were decent wins, but the other three were pretty non impressive.

No it's not. The stat was about the starting 5 of Griesel, Walker, Gary, Manny and CJ, I believe, but really it's about the first four. Griesel didn't play vs. Indiana but did vs. Minnesota. Then Gary got hurt the next game vs. Illinois, so 6-4 is the stat.

[49r]

I stand corrected.  Carry on.

[uneblinstu]

If you want to, you could include the Illinois game since that's the game Gary got hurt. That would drop the record to 6-5.

I'm old enough to remember when you defended Eichorst 

[Cowboy Kermit]

He had lunch with Baylor Scheierman a few weeks ago. Think he is not an actual agent but one of their recruiters. 

Have been told he’s an “NIL agent”

[huskerbill85]

Undefeated since I made my comment I gotta stick with it so we keep winning
