throwback Posted October 22, 2013 Report Posted October 22, 2013 Here is a Lincoln Journal Star article on Keanu Pinder's commitment. Lots of good stuff in the article. But here is a bit of information that seems to be telling in some respect on recruiting for the 2014 class: "The Huskers are still in on junior-college forward Deng Deng. Nebraska isn’t expected to have any official visitors, though, until the first weekend of November." Kind of sounds like they figure they've got the 2014 class wrapped up? Or perhaps there are 32 other ways to construe such information? Maybe they're going all-in with Deng Deng and if they don't get him, they hold the scholarship until the spring or if they get a good option for a December transfer, they use it there. Quote

Has anyone from the coaching staff or news media ever said this so directly and unequivocally before? Quote
Handy Johnson Posted October 22, 2013 Report Posted October 22, 2013 Will they put Deng's first or last name on the back of his jersey? And think of the fun Pavelka and Davison will have when he dunks it! Norm Peterson 1 Quote

Has anyone from the coaching staff or news media ever said this so directly and unequivocally before? Does that mean three for 2014 or three total? Probably means three for 2014 but obviously there is still wiggle room in that statement. Quote

hhcmatt Posted October 23, 2013 Author Report Posted October 23, 2013 Dimes the scholarship breakdown shows up as a blank page. Just a heads up. Are you by chance using internet explorer? Looks like I had a rights issue. I have updated the sheet though you might have to wait for your browser to re-cache in order for it to work. Verified it works in Chrome and Firefox. Is anyone using an ipad or andriod device that they can use to verify that it works there as well? Thanks in advance. Doesn't work on my ipad or iPhone, but does work with firefox on computer. I think i have this working on all devices. It's possible that if you visited before i fixed it, that you're getting an old/cached copy Quote
hhcmatt Posted October 23, 2013 Author Report Posted October 23, 2013 Dimes, I have an Android phone and the recruiting tab doesn't show up for me. I have messenger, notifications, members, forums, gallery, chat, new content, status updates, search, and mark as read tabs. I do not have one for recruiting. Thanks for the head up on that. Does the direct link work? Yes, direct link works. Still need to fix the issue where custom tabs set up do not appear on the mobile skin Quote
AuroranHusker Posted October 24, 2013 Report Posted October 24, 2013 I'm not sure how much we're going to get out of Smith at this point. He's beginning to sound like it's Neimann/Almeida all over again, unfortunately... Why do you say that? I'm only going by the fact that he's had issues with his knee(s?) in the past, and then there's this tidbit from throwback's recap of the Husker Basketball Show this week over in the "Official Media Thread": Smith - Started well, then got hurt, knee swells up on him at times, then injured hamstring maybe favoring knee, need him healthy, he's a critical guy for us That's all. Chris Balham is the 1st guy that came to my mind.... hope Leslee's knees are nary Balhamesque. Quote
