Future major leaguer Bob Cerv played for the Huskers. Cluade Retherford and Milt "Bus" Whitehead were all-Big Seven for the Huskers. Also, lots of bad shooting and not a lot of patience pre-shot clock. Conference Overall Rk School W L W-L% W L W-L% Notes 1 Nebraska 9 3 .750 16 10 .615 Reg.

Once quoted as saying his idea of a team was four guys who would set screens so he could shoot. If there is someone on that film taking all the shots for Nebraska, especially shooting from the hip, it's Claude. https://vault.si.com/vault/1966/02/21/a-pair-of-sparklers-in-poky jayschool 1 Quote

HuskerCager Posted May 22 Report Posted May 22 Just stumbled onto this tonight. About a 10 minute high-quality clip of NU's 84-63 loss to Missouri in 1980 (about 2 minutes in). Not a happy day with the loss, and a rather ill Joe CIpriano. I was a college student in the stands somewhere, remember this well. hhcmatt, lang and Nighthawk 2 1 Quote
