    uneblinstu's postgame chatter: vol 13; ed 21 - vs. Penn St.

    That was just a fun basketball game!

    Teddy got all the buckets! 

    Andre continues to show flashes of his potential.

    Trey hit some big shots, but finally got caught with his hand in the cookie jar on that attempt at drawing that foul.

    Walker does so many little things.

    Thor hit some big shots coming back from that 10 point deficit.

    Webster's giving some big minutes, too.

     

    but...

     

    Nebraskebtall happened. 

    Penn St. played harder and smarter at some key stretches. 

    NU had some sloppy, lazy turnovers at back breaking moments. 

    Giving fouls at the wrong time.

     

    and then...

     

    They kept battling.

    I liked that they didn't try to force a 3 at the end

    but couldn't quite get the final shot to fall...

    Man, that would have been fun to win. 

    Shame to waste that effort from Teddy.

    Keith won the ‘75 NBA Finals with the Golden St. Warriors, something Husker greats Hoppen, Farmer & Moore we’re unable to accomplish...

    Speaking of getting names right, he chose to go by Jamaal Wilkes publicly and legally changed it to Jamaal Abdul-Lateef. I don’t think Jamaal would go all Ali and “Say my name” on you, but a person probably has a right to their own name.

    RIcky Marsh was a pretty good player as well.    He was the PG that helped get Jerry lots of his points.  

     

    Yep, seems like the story was that he didn't like Cip's style of play. Finished his career at Manhattan and was drafted by the Warriors. As freshmen, some people thought he was better than Jerry, believe it or not. He was more athletic, not as skilled, IIRC.

    Philosophically I think we value getting back and set on defense vs trying to crash the boards. Given our roster makeup this seems like the right course of action, no?  To me the problem with Penn St out rebounding us on the offensive boards is their 16, not our 2. Harrar was getting rebounds last night that he had no business getting.

     

    I agree.  You have to block out.   It's not that hard.

    Hate to correct you, but: he did play his freshman year.

     

    And how is it that, from his recruiting class, he wasn't the one that played in the NBA?

     

     

    Fort broke his leg in a pickup game after the season after being drafted by the Celtics in the 3rd round and after that it didn't work out.  However he was able to parlay his pro-basketball career into an insurance career.

     

    I need to make the time this summer to fix all these @hhcdave gems
