HuskerActuary Posted November 13, 2012 Report Posted November 13, 2012 I think it was Bobby Capobianco. He is a transfer from Indiana. I think they said that they had 7 transfers from Div 1 programs on the team. Yes, it was. This was posted four days ago in a local newspaper: Drew learned earlier in the week that Bobby Capobianco, a 6-foot-10 junior transfer from Indiana, would need to undergo hernia surgery. The procedure took place Thursday, and Capobianco could miss up to a month. "He's doing well," Drew said. "The surgery went excellent. It will be a couple weeks until he can get back to doing things, but as soon as the doctor clears him he'll be ready to play." hhcmatt 1 Quote

49r Posted November 13, 2012 Report Posted November 13, 2012 So, we won't need to worry about this Billy Copacabana fella then? Quote
cipsucks Posted November 13, 2012 Report Posted November 13, 2012 So, we won't need to worry about this Billy Copacabana fella then? 49'r, I see you didn't have the guts to post a Barry Manilow video....... 49r 1 Quote
49r Posted November 13, 2012 Report Posted November 13, 2012 cip, I thought about it, really...but they were all very poor quality for one reason or another. and plus, yeah, I kinda chickened out. What I was really looking for was the version from the movie "Duets", but I couldn't find that one. Quote
hhcmatt Posted November 13, 2012 Report Posted November 13, 2012 Watching Valpo this morning and a few thoughts - They play well organized and disciplined basketball. - They have a few tall and lengthy boys on the team. - They shoot it verry well. Espicially from downtown. - They will provide a tough test for us, but will be playing on the road in the BOB. We all know thats a tough place to play - 69 to 46 was the final score over NO. Illinois - Overall it will be a tough test this early in the season, but one that we have a chance at passing! My thought was a sort of Northwestern or Purdue team. They also have 7 division one transfers on the team Quote
hskr4life Posted November 14, 2012 Report Posted November 14, 2012 My thought was a sort of Northwestern or Purdue team. They also have 7 division one transfers on the team I would agree with that. It is a team that has the potential to beat us, but also one that is beatable if we play to our potential. Quote
atskooc Posted November 14, 2012 Report Posted November 14, 2012 I'm not sure we know what our potential is yet. Quote
nuhusker7 Posted November 14, 2012 Report Posted November 14, 2012 I say we cut Andre some slack. He is all we've got in the post this year. so I propose a new nickname for him to make amends for all the snarky comments we have made and since the "Velvet Tower" never caught on. How about "the Vanilla Gorilla from Brazilla" or "the Tapirnator" for starts. How about Alemania Plaza Quote

bball23 Posted November 16, 2012 Report Posted November 16, 2012 Glad I was wrong I think a lot of us thought this would be a tough one. Good to see them find a way to win even after a 7 minute drought! Yikes! Quote

As you probably already know... don't drink the Kool-aid yet. But at least we can say "OH, YEAAHH!" about this win tonight! hhcmatt 1 Quote

I'm not drinking the kool-aid, but will definitely enjoy the win. Most of us know this will be a tough year. Any win they can get is nice. Build some confidence with those young guys. Quote
Huskerpapa Posted November 16, 2012 Report Posted November 16, 2012 Nice win. I got a kick out of Kent. When I was driving home he uttered the following. "The game was closer than the score would indicate." Kent...really???? hhcmatt 1 Quote
trickey Posted November 16, 2012 Report Posted November 16, 2012 How about Alemania Plaza How about "Sugarloaf Mountain"...an iconic isle in the port of Rio de Janeiro...and Andre looks like he is no stranger to sugar. Quote
