Nighthawk Posted November 5, 2012 Report Posted November 5, 2012 Granted there are a lot of people that think this year is going to be a really tough year to watch. Maybe...maybe not. We don't know how much work Coach has put into this. We might be shocked....so might the press. I was watching the Big 10 basketball preview show. They spent most of the time covering the obvious teams in the conference....then they got to the new coaches. While they didn't spend a lot of time covering the news coaches and their teams it seems like they spent a decent chunk of time on John Groce and Illinois, while spending just a bit of time on Coach Miles. We are so far under everyone's radar. Might be a good thing. I don't know about the rest of you...but I'm totally excited about this season. Quote
TheGov21 Posted November 5, 2012 Report Posted November 5, 2012 I'm pretty excited too. I think the low expectations has me the most excited because I think the team is going to be better than most people think. Yeah they are going to be bad, but I think they'll be competitive and fun to watch. Quote
49r Posted November 5, 2012 Report Posted November 5, 2012 in just about 48 hours....the pain will begin.... I have a real sense of dread going into this season. It's gonna be brutal, I'm afraid. Quote
Huskerpapa Posted November 5, 2012 Report Posted November 5, 2012 I go in with low expectations but high hopes. "Next time your found, with your chin on the ground There a lot to be learned, so look around Just what makes that little old ant Think hell move that rubber tree plant Anyone knows an ant, cant Move a rubber tree plant But he's got high hopes, he's got high hopes Hes got high apple pie, in the sky hopes" Quote

Handy Johnson Posted November 5, 2012 Report Posted November 5, 2012 Every year I think we're going to be pretty good to REALLY good. Last year I thought Spencer would be an upgrade over Jeter (wrong) , Diaz & Almeida would be Sampson/Olajawon (nope) and we would finish in the top 5 of the BIG 10. That being said, this season will be ugly on a grand scale. I'll mainly be focused on the underclassmen to see how they develop and fit in next year, when we have a few more bullets. Quote
cipsucks Posted November 5, 2012 Report Posted November 5, 2012 Personally, I'm going to wait until the first official game to call it the start of the Miles era. That way, if we happen to lose the exhibition game, it was a do over. I am planning on starting a game thread Wednesday, however. (That is, unless someone beats me to it.) Quote
49r Posted November 6, 2012 Report Posted November 6, 2012 cip, the game thread is always all yours! Quote

HuskerFever Posted November 6, 2012 Report Posted November 6, 2012 I'm pretty excited too. I think the low expectations has me the most excited because I think the team is going to be better than most people think. Yeah they are going to be bad, but I think they'll be competitive and fun to watch. Ubel is the only player on the roster that has more than 4 career starts. That's what makes me uneasy the most.

Silverbacked1 Posted November 6, 2012 Report Posted November 6, 2012 Went to the women's game the other day and the Bob looks really different inside. All the murals are off the walls in the halls. And the worst part is the concession stands are different. ONE WAS EVEN CLOSED. Quote

Fingers crossed we take care of Midland Quote
jimmykc Posted November 7, 2012 Report Posted November 7, 2012 http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=p_W2xO6kxAY A more appropriate Sinatra tune for my feeling about this year and my mood in general today. Quote
