...east of Omaha.   Time for the Huskers to Turn the Page on 2014 and get things rolling in 2015.  We all know about our injuries, lack of depth, offensive ineptness at times, yadda yadda yadda.  Ma

You know what...we played pretty damn well tonight.  But for the fouls, and perhaps rebounding, we played well.

 

Basically, we shot well until 5 minutes left. So, I guess we have that!

I was kind of watching Fuller closely on Defense as people said he was really bad on defense but I did not think he did any worse off than Rivers did on Defense. He boxed out good and did not get beat off the dribble.

 

Fuller only got beat on a transition pull up 3 pointer.

 

Fuller is a little bigger than Rivers is,

 

Just give Fuller 5-10 minutes to help keep others fresh.

I know people like what they saw from Fuller tonight, but he'd get destroyed defensively against most other Big Ten teams. This just happens to be one of the least athletic teams in the league.

Sounds good. Let's not play anyone on the roster that can get beat by more athletic Big Ten guys.

Hammond, Fuller, Pitch, Tai, Leslee, Moses, and everyone else not named Benny, Shavon and Terran can call it a season.

did you see leslee holding his own against adrian payne last year? he's definitely athletic enough. same with pitch

Leslee, sure.

Pitch, no. Stop.

Score doesn't look so good at the end--seems like we never win the trading-fouls-for-field-goals war from behind. However, with Nebraska playing short handed, without our two post players, and getting those two post guys back in a few games, in light of last year's end of season run, gotta keep the chin up!! And Tarin is starting to make a mark on these games!

I'll take my chances with Fuller on defense. He may get beat some by the more athletic players in the league. But I'll take that over the next option who can't dribble, shoot, and likes to turn the ball over.

Fuller spreads out the offense where Rivers just kind of gets in the way down low.

Pitch can jump.  Otherwise, I see little athletic ability from that guy.

Just don't see much that Fuller can provide for us THIS year. I still like him for the future. Coming out of HS, he reminded me a lot of -- ironically enough -- Aaron White.

Whatever happened to Rivers' midrange jumper? I thought that was money last year.

At the end of the day...either Fuller or Tai need to be getting some minutes. Tai has had his chance and honestly he looks like a borderline D-1 basketball player. Fuller may not be much better in the long run this year but I'd like to see him get a chance. In his first 3 minutes of the game he equaled Websters offensive output in the last 5 games.
