huskerbaseball13 Posted August 13, 2015 Author Report Posted August 13, 2015 Miami played Casvi and Albacete last year, winning both game by 11 and scoring in the high 70s Glad we are playing some teams that will give the guys a chance to compete as opposed to making it a layup drill against the opposing team.

I suspect that the European Basketball Academy will be the tough matchup and that CB Castelldefels will be the layup drill Quote
bobcat402 Posted August 13, 2015 Report Posted August 13, 2015 Trueblood-less in Spain: This Trueblood story is sounding a lot like my friend, from High School Mitch Albers, dude was a stud at Papio, went to UNO was a stud first year or two went to walk on at NU, early word was Doc really liked him, and he got the damn swine flu, dropped down liked 40lbs..he only weighed maybe 190 tops, and left the program, and went back to UNO after he recuperated...i hope this isnt the same.

jimmykc Posted August 13, 2015 Report Posted August 13, 2015 It's about time someone made a pro tapeworm post. So many posters seem to thrive on negative. Now let's hear something positive about the Bluejays. I hear they may be giving out free tapeworms at their games this year. bobcat402 and 49r 2 Quote

Now let's hear something positive about the Bluejays. I hear they may be giving out free tapeworms at their games this year. Creighton was pre-season ranked #1 and has five projected All-Americans according to the "Bluejay Irrational Journal". Does that count? bobcat402 1 Quote

Creighton was pre-season ranked #1 and has five projected All-Americans according to the "Bluejay Irrational Journal". Does that count? Perhaps we could win a game in the series before we go running our Bluejay smack. Making fun of their tapeworms is one thing; making any derogatory observation about how good they might or might not be can wait until we actually beat them a time or two, IMO. (By this point in Doc's tenure, he had a 2-1 record in the series. Just sayin'.) Quote
jimmykc Posted August 13, 2015 Report Posted August 13, 2015 I've got an "inside" source in my old foreign exchange student who is still connected to Spanish basketball. I messaged him to get his opinion on the teams we will play. If he hasn't forgotten all of his English, I'll share his opinions if I get any feedback. Bugeaters1, Red Don and Haymarket Husker 3 Quote
AuroranHusker Posted August 13, 2015 Report Posted August 13, 2015 I take it those are merely for the trip there. I'm sure Spain has snacks available. Quote
Silverbacked1 Posted August 13, 2015 Report Posted August 13, 2015 https://twitter.com/NebManagers/status/631889148710813696 I take it those are merely for the trip there. I'm sure Spain has snacks available. Well yeah but they can be different than we are used too. Also it can be hard to get them and they can cost a ton of money, like a coke at one hotel we were staying at in Madrid was like $7. Having said all that I wonder how they are going to get all that over there if they are taking snacks along. Guess it won't be a carry on. Quote

hhcmatt Posted August 13, 2015 Report Posted August 13, 2015 Note from LeeBo about Anton Gill travelling for the trip: Louisville transfer Anton Gill had a wild Wednesday. Originally, it was thought he wouldn’t be allowed to go to Spain because he has to sit out this season. Then Nebraska was granted a waiver for him to travel but not play in games. One problem, though: Gill’s passport had expired. So he went to a U.S. Embassy office in Denver to get a new passport in time to leave with the team Friday morning. http://www.omaha.com/huskers/tim-miles-lesson-for-nebraska-freshmen-prior-to-spain-trip/article_dd8771f4-4157-11e5-a259-979331f6a1cf.html Quote
hhcmatt Posted August 14, 2015 Report Posted August 14, 2015 Minnesota wins their first game in Spain. I think somehow they don't play any of the teams we do. Quote
jimmykc Posted August 14, 2015 Report Posted August 14, 2015 Pablo, my spy in Valencia, got back to me and said " they are all fourth division teams. Nebraska should win all four games." Albacete is a team about two hours from Valencia so he may be able to check out the game personally. Bugeaters1 1 Quote
