What are WOVERINES?

The two guys that sit behind and my wife are all world coaches. They don't have anything good to say the whole game.

Coach Williams didn't even come out for her radio post game today. What does that tell you?

Michigan is a fine team but my goodness there was a lot of dribbling and standing around today. I can't figure out if they don't know how to run the offense or defense or if its lack of effort in some spots? Michigan was so much quicker than us it was scary.

They yelled at the coach told her she needed to start coaching. That didn't sit well with my wife. They also commented that if they had a daughter looking at schools they wouldn't be looking at UNL

Sounds like these guys need to go on a world tour and share the wealth of knowledge

Field goals            3's         FT's

NU       41%           35%       55.6 % (pretty sure we're in last place in B1G for season so far)         

Mich     57%           45%        76 %

Kind of proves the point..... "To win in basketball you have to be able to shoot the ball through the hoop"

I'm not disagreeing with you, I'm just saying that today the team got above 40% in FGs and they were a bit low on FT% in league play.

Our only hope now is to win the B1G tournament to get into the Big Dance. 

We won't win many games with Jess only shooting the ball 8 times. Plus 3-4 of those shots had to be forced because the shot clock was expiring. 

WE NEED TO RUN PLAYS TO GET HER OPEN OR ONE ON ONE!!

Tough loss tonight. Didn't quite get some things tonight the substitution timing and personal on floor together, starting guards seem to set quite a few minutes. Not sure if all our players and coaches are on the same page on offense and defense. Coach not doing the postgame on the radio. Was kinda of a strange game today.

Hard to do when she is the focus of the opposing team, she had three people on her today.

Yes, I understand...the lack of consistent scoring is another of the humps we need to get over. We shot really well today in 1st quarter, then go several minutes and don't score at all. We kind have a pattern of starting well and have then go cold and can't keep up and the other team gets ahead by 10 or so, and they continue to build on their lead. It's almost like we wake up the other team.

Allie and Nicea speak with the press.

So does the coach.

Your'e exactly right!  Thats why we need to do a better job of moving the ball quick and not dribbling so much.

If you have 3 people collapsing you need to try and run some things for other players to loosen things up.

We stand around too much waiting for someone to get open, they have to move more and have quick smart passes. Some of the girls have great screens and others are not even setting a close enough screen. At times they looked lost...and there where times there was lack of hustle..hustle down on defense. And if you are suppose to be a leader on the team...show it! Do the extra in the weight room, in the gym, and when asked of you! Don't think you are better then your teammates...need to start jelling ladies! I will say I am impressed with our Freshmen! Never give up Ladies and play with your Hearts!  #GBR

That's more than strange.

Coach appears to feel like we're having some problematic issues. You could see she was very serious at the beginning of the post game video. (UNL requires the coach to appear at their post game interview).  Guessing of course...but..it may not be going as well....even as she had thought it might... and hoped.
