TheKamdyMan Posted August 9, 2013 Report Posted August 9, 2013 The one good thing Nebraska has going for them is two parents that played sports at Nebraska. Quote
Norm Peterson Posted August 9, 2013 Report Posted August 9, 2013 We've got some damn good offers out to 2015 kids. Miles needs that class to be a homerun, and he's making offers to put us in position to get that done. Quote
trickey Posted August 9, 2013 Author Report Posted August 9, 2013 Now you can mark it as official...He is from Mac Irvin Fire Quote
TheKamdyMan Posted August 9, 2013 Report Posted August 9, 2013 He was backing up Jabari Parker last year. I really think it will be easy to sell his parents on NU just have to hope we can sell him. Quote
Norm Peterson Posted August 9, 2013 Report Posted August 9, 2013 Sometimes, all you gotta do is win the mom. Or the dad. Quote

TheKamdyMan Posted August 9, 2013 Report Posted August 9, 2013 Sometimes, all you gotta do is win the mom. Or the dad. I'd think that would already be done assuming she enjoyed her time in Lincoln. I mean she did find her husband there so that's a great memory. Plus they now play more games closer to their home than the big 12 and the new facilities are a big plus. Quote
ShortDust Posted September 10, 2013 Report Posted September 10, 2013 At the end of this film is that Kenya hunter walking up and taking a seat? Just thought that would be interesting if that was actually him. Quote

atskooc Posted November 5, 2013 Report Posted November 5, 2013 Heck, move back to Nebraska, but this time in Omaha. Get the kid to play at Central (there's growing publicity with that program), and get the hell away from all that gunfire! Quote
FredsSlacks Posted November 5, 2013 Report Posted November 5, 2013 I don't think lack of basketball talent and exposure are a good reason to not move to Nebraska. Mike Gesell started for Iowa as a Freshman, and only averaged 25 points in class B Nebraska basketball. Virtually every D1 school offered Akoy. I think Edward can become a better player without living in chicago. Why would they risk all their lives in Chicago if they all want to be in Nebraska? Quote
Neebrasketball Posted November 5, 2013 Report Posted November 5, 2013 That was a fascinating read. Thanks for posting Kamdy. Hopefully the whole family has a reason to come back home in a couple years (Grandma and Grandpa too)! Quote

I think the family ties to Chicago with a sick mom and it being "home" plays more of a role than they let on. hhcmatt 1 Quote
hhcmatt Posted November 5, 2013 Report Posted November 5, 2013 I hope we have the legacy in ala Shavon Shields. I also hope entire family follows him back. Quote

With a sister in Lincoln and the younger kids wanting to move back it bodes well. It sounds like they all enjoy Lincoln and seems like "home" for them. hhcmatt 1 Quote
huskerbaseball13 Posted December 22, 2013 Report Posted December 22, 2013 FYI...not that it means much but 5 staff members of 247sports.com as of a few weeks ago have predicted Morrow to sign with NU. Hope they are right....would be a nice get, very good player from a powerhouse basketball program. They rank him as the #107 players in the nation for his class. Quote
MandRHusker Posted December 22, 2013 Report Posted December 22, 2013 Morrow would be the same recruiting class as Pinder. Could be quite a class! Quote
busticket Posted December 22, 2013 Report Posted December 22, 2013 Wow. That was a heck of a story. I has always wondered is he was related to our own Ed Morrow from the 90's. That's a pretty tough life they've carved out for themselves in Chicago; I can see why the younger kids want to return to Lincoln! I was impressed at how good of an attitude the kids have given the parameters in which they have to live for the sake of safety. That is a very disciplined family to say the least. The perfect ending to the story would be the son returning to the parent's alma mater to get his degree Quote
Huskerpapa Posted December 22, 2013 Report Posted December 22, 2013 He doesn't really have a PF body, but he can certainly take it to the hole. Quote
lanigan123 Posted December 26, 2013 Report Posted December 26, 2013 What I LOVE about this kid is he will be here and he gets life. He gets the sacrifice that has to be made to achieve great things, beyond that he came from a program where you compete at a level most of our players haven't competed with, internally on a team and externally. Depending on where he grows I can see him playing the 3 or the 4, he would need to bulk up to play the 4 but Miles like the stretch 4. To me he brings so much to the table. Quote
AuroranHusker Posted December 28, 2013 Report Posted December 28, 2013 Am I the only one that thinks "Good Night, and Good Luck" when I see the title of this thread??? No, you're not.... good night, and good luck! Quote
throwback Posted January 25, 2014 Report Posted January 25, 2014 Video with what it says are junior highlights for Morrow - pretty much all dunks and blocked shots, but he does shoot a couple of free throws toward the end. Intriguing player - would be nice to take advantage of our "in" and get him here. doc1394 1 Quote
REDZONEDAN Posted January 25, 2014 Report Posted January 25, 2014 Would be nice to see him become a Husker. Quote
