Hey, nobody made you. I didn't hold a gun to your head and say, "Go negative, Silver. Here, watch me." If all the negative Nellies on this board jumped off a cliff ...

Why can't you rate us higher than PSU? So, there. I've moved us into 10th place. Hey, it's better than a kick in the butt. That's not much higher than 12th I don't know, Norm....at least I felt better about it last year when I could see we were not holding up the bottom of the pyramid. I am not sure who may fall below us, but we should climb to at least the 8/9 position this year.... and hopefully gain enough experience along the way that getting to the NIT Final 4 is not out of the question!! ?/! We need to progress...It is the Miles' way! (Norm, I do recall you mentioned 6th place earlier in this thread...FROM YOUR FINGERS TO GOD"S EYES!...this age of technology) I always want "my players" aiming higher than I should reasonable expect...however, the above is a step I believe this team can make. Some of the naysayer articles we have seen don't seem to recognize our redshirts exist or that the incoming freshmen have at least a modicum of talent....for instance, see the article 49r posted earlier... http://board.huskerhoopscentral.com/topic/2762-bt-powerhouse-three-reasons-nebrasketball-will-be-better-in-2013/ Complimentary article about why we should be better....but there is not one freshmen or transfer mentioned....and this from people that purport to know what they are talking about! Let them be surprised. I know we have not seen the newbies much (and we may be drinking Kool-Aid) but TM's history tells me the Kool-Aid is good so...believe, step forward and drink up. GATA

Let's face it- Nebraska hoops isn't exactly a storied program, and the transition from being trampled by Kansas to being trampled by 9 good teams in the B1G has been much more difficult on the hardwood than the gridiron. But every cloud has a silver lining, even out in Tornado Alley, so let's see if we can find a few for the Cornhoopers. ---read the article here--- http://www.btpowerhouse.com/2013/9/3/4667522/Nebraska-basketball-nebrasketball-2013

Early look at the team. Just got my e-mail. Woo frickin' hoo!

would be awesome if they used a AA game used jersey for when they do the promotion where a kid has to put on an over sized jersey, shorts, and shoes and go the distance across the court to get a lay-up. would be perfect. Lincoln child reported missing after attempting to make a layup wearing an Andre Almeida jersey

A line cut from the rough draft "One lucky Husker fan will be dragging home an Almeida Wisconsin Game worn jersey."

I feel good about things. I think we get Elbert on board. BR also said in his article that Kenya was the first coach to recruit Robinson. I think the Robinson family's loyalty lies in Hunter and not in Georgetown the school. I agree that selling Nebraska over Georgetown shouldn't be a problem if you examine things as they are right now. Nebraska has a lot going in terms of the program, facilities, exposure, B1G, etc. Georgetown HAS been places. Has been. They have history. Now they are in the watered down league. Ohio State should be our main competition. I could be wrong but I think Elbert is Thad Matta's plan C. They have Myles Turner, Goodluck Okonoboh, and then Elbert Robinson. Jahlil Okafor also has the Buckeyes in his final 8 although he is an extreme longshot to sign with OSU. I think Myles Turner ends up at Kansas. Goodluck has high interest in OSU and Matta has been recruiting him hard lately.

That right there's gotta be good for at least two pages, don't ya think?

I Hey, nobody made you. I didn't hold a gun to your head and say, "Go negative, Silver. Here, watch me." If all the negative Nellies on this board jumped off a cliff ... Yeah I would be standing in the back of the line pushing really hard to get to the front. You know "me first" is how I was raised.

Not sure who's attending all these concerts at PBA, but eventually the fervor for major music events will wane. Only Nebrasketball will remain!!

Goldberg's is a great place to eat, right by 50th & Dodge...

Finally that hard rock group we've been promised

well two things on OSU visit. One they play AT Michigan so unless he visits UM he cant see that game. Also the National Signing date is before that weekend anyways so he will have already made his decision.

Well yeah..... Norm started the negativity, not me, it's not my fault.... yeah it's Norms fault.

the teams across the top change EVERY time you close out the profile and come back in. The only place the teams would stay the same for interest is below where they name the teams, fyi. This is true. If you aren't happy with a recruits choices, you can just keep hitting refresh until the Nebraska logo pops into the lineup!
