Mast is 14-46 on the year. That's 30%. My vote is he stops taking them altogether unless the shot clock is < 5.

I disagree— he’s a career 32.6% shooter which is basically 1/3.  From a big man, that’s not terrible.  We also need that offensive production from him outside with the way that our offense is structured.  Otherwise, if teams know he isn’t shooting, they can pack it in which hurts our other guys.

 

Not saying he should take a ton of 3’s, but 2-3 early and more if he is hitting isn’t a bad thing IMO.

Playing conservatively is a way to lose these types of games by a respectable margin. Rather see was take the type of shots that mean we could win or else lose by 20

Sure, but we have better options to take those shots.

 

I hope he lights it up tonight and I'm wrong!

Roads around Lincoln aren't perfect, but they are certainly okay.

They're decent. Hopefully tomorrow the roads melt more, because it'll be single digits from there on out

In the building.  Roads were okay.  Sidewalks were not.  Some hardy souls are here.  I am going our on a limb and say we will be about 3/4 full.

[hskr4life]

BWill not just playing but starting.

For the love of all things just in the world, let’s win this baby.  Had 

them on the stinkin ropes last year.  The massive human beings they roll out each year at center gets really old….

And 4/3 times loud!

[Faux Mike Peltz]

Grace, Kieta, Burt, and Uhlis are not warming up. Grace is in shorts and appears like he could warm up but he’s standing with the other three at half court.

 

Might be the first time I’ve notice Ramel warming up.

Here's a thought. No one has seen Lloyd play.  He might as well be Santa Clause or the Easter Bunny at this point.  Although more people probably think they really exist.  Anyways, let's give Walker Lloyd's jersey and run him out there.

[Faux Mike Peltz]

Charlie shooting the half court shot is legit rocking a Henry Burt jersey. Needs to hit the weights based on his four attempts. 

[Nebrasketball1979]

Was someone saying Mast shouldn't shoot 

[HuskerFever]

I'll have what this team is having.

[hskr4life]

Lack of effort won't be a problem tonight.

[Vinny]

Crowd seems energetic!
