Southwest Baptist has been added to the non-conference schedule as an exhibition game on Sunday, Nov. 6th.
Was actually hoping this would happen to help get the Huskers somewhat accustomed to some sort of game time experience in the new system before being thrown into the fire of WNIT pre-season tourney.
Slow your roll there huskerbaseball13. Miles and staff have done an amazing job of recruiting and bringing in 4 star talent to a program with virtually no history and never won an NCAA tournament game. That is not easy to do. You get all judgmental when a player goes somewhere else. That doesn't mean the sky is falling as you can't land every player you are recruiting. That are only 13 spots so it's impossible to sign every player you try and recruit. Yes, he would have been a nice pickup for the program but that doesn't mean we won't sign a different top 150 player. You can't honestly look at current rooster and not be impressed with the level of talent we have gotten compared to what we used to get.
The in-state trio signed in '02 comes to mind -- Dourisseau, Wilkinson, and Enright. Each was pretty highly touted coming out of high school, IIRC.WWWWWWEEEEEEEESSSSSSSS *insert earth shattering dunk
It'd be nice if the coaching staff could lock up Kezo Brown for '18 now, since it looks like we've whiffed on our '17 priorities at PG. Not surprised by the lack of success recruiting the position, though. Any true PG can look at our roster and see that Watson still has 3 years of eligibility left. If Miles is really commited to bringing in a PG this class, he may need to go the combo guard route instead.
Michael Lewis was recruiting Batts when he was still a coach at Butler (don't know when Butler offered tho )
Doubt if he had much interest in Nebraska before the Lewis link.
He just narrowed his schools down to his top 7. They are: Oklahoma, Clemson, Georgia, Georgetown, Florida State, VCU and Nebraska. Some pretty good competition but can’t get him unless you make the list.
