Well I was slightly disappointed we landed Yvan over Cross, but I could not be happier landing both of these guys! 

All I can say is WOW I am impressed!

I was a little torn myself.  That only lasted a couple days!

the coaches have done an amazing job restocking the roster.  I feel like our relent level would definitely be better than last season if Roby were to return.  Same neighborhood if he leaves, but probably deeper overall.

Phase 2 is to see what the coaches can do with  this collection of talent they have assembled.  Coaching and chemistry....I think this is where Fred excels.  It’s going to be tough waiting to see the finished product.  Not to wish the summer away but I can not wait for the fall!

Well, we got our bigger bodies now. 6’8” isn’t as tall as some would like...but if it worked for Amos Gregory, it’s good enough for me! 

8 of 13 is jaw-dropping ,especially considering the max would've been, what, 9 or 10 of 13? 

This is how you make a statement early. Loud and clear.

I've been impressed by their efficiency, for sure. Get guys in. Get the signature. Make the LOI announcement. Bang... bang... bang.

Think about what's possible if they have some actual success at NU to show recruits. So far they've made this look relatively easy with a very small pool of prospects and some intangible concept of what Nebrasketball might look like. How does this all scale-up going forward? Multiple 4-star/top-100s per season? Top 50s? 5-stars? Mickey D's AA's?

I mean... where the hell is the ceiling?

Wow...just wow.  Wow!!!

Whichever one is taller.

This is a Doc recruit, so I'm Not that impressed. HOWEVER I will have an open mind about him!

Doc's just happy he can say this kids name.

Who would have ever thought recruits would be saying about Nebrasketball: "I want to go there because their coaching staff can help me get to the next level/NBA."

This kid could be the next Andre Smith (has to work on his sideburns). More importantly who might Redshirt, Jace, Charlie? I’m assuming Cross & Drago will play... like others have said, just WOW

My guess is Arop. You have Kavas/Stevenson to play the four and Cross/Ouedraogo to the play the 5. If Roby is back he could play either.

I could see situations with Kavas playing the 5 to pull the opposing center out of the lane, making room for our big wings to take it to the rim.  This team definitely has a lot of potential options.
