Doane vs. Nebraska Exhibition Game Thread

Tominaga hurts an ankle. Jake says let's hope this is just a minor one.  Really, Jake?  No such thing as a minor ankle injury...

DJ is playing brickhouse, seems fitting.

Well the hits just keep hit. Now Kesei is laying on the floor holding his ankle  but we have the lead and actually don’t look too awful for not playing anybody that will ever play together again. They still getting after it on D. Diane as made at least one if not two throw it up at the end of the clock and it banks in 3. 
Rice is very, very  smooth. Looks and plays much older than first time freshmen on a big stage. 
CJ with a nice no look dump down pass

Save a spot for me on the Eli Rice is going to be in the rotation train.

Been hearing a lot of his name today.

38-27 at the half. In my humble opinion we should have quite a few guys who can actually shoot the three with some accuracy. Didn’t start well but finished better. 
run a little bit if the bigs can keep up

D will be our true calling card. We are getting after it on that end

once again hope it is a fun year

my 58th of going to at least one game a year

Not going to lie-- Boogie looks like he's just out there going through the motions sometimes.  It's eerily similar to a few players from the early Hoiberg years.

I thought that early in the second half that he was going to go hero ball. but he pulled the ball out and ran some O.

Is Grace hurt?

Not sure how you look rest this season but against Doane CJ Wilcher looks like Karl Malone

Kent has called a player from Doane a nephew of the great Nebraska player Chad Ideus, three times now.  Bang a rang.  There's hope for Dave MacFarlane to enter the HOF!

Are you being sarcastic/joking? Honestly asking… because there absolutely is.

[Navin R. Johnson]

My take:

 

Boogie can play.  Can he play with everyone else?

 

KT plays thousands upon thousands of minutes of basketball this summer without a scratch and then gets hurt in an exhibition against Doane.

 

JL looks like a guy that will fill up a stat line without looking like he did much.

 

CJ had a solid game. Couldn't believe how big he looked compared to Doane's  players.

 

Rice. Love his potential.  He will get knocked around in conference play but will learn from it hopefully.

 

Sam needs to play.  Will not make as many plays as he did today, but he will make some.

 

Williams took one for the team and played the post. Might be best coming off the bench.

 

Diop:  Of course he gets sick when he has a chance to play major minutes gaining valuable experience.

 

Not sure how much our other bigs  would have gained in playing today other than game conditioning.

 

[hhcmatt]

Maybe we were taking it a little easy tonight but the lack of hops was underwhelming. We had one dunk the entire game and at one point a 5'6" Doane player got a layup with no contest from Eli Rice

He was destined for greatness until a 5'11" kid from Hampton ripped away 17 rebounds against him.  He never was the same after that.  He would have led us to our first tournament win, but instead ended up being a shell of his former self, which caused him to help lead the walkout against Danny.  All because he played against Hampton.
