Rothstein is actually a bit tepid in his praise. He thinks Verge and the two McGowens brothers are All-Conference caliber as a backcourt, but like us, he's not sure how we'll defend and rebound.
His rotation of Verge, the two McGowens, Mayen and Walker followed by Keisei, CJ and Keon leaves out ...
frickin' Kobe Webster, Eduardo Andre and Wilhelm "The Flying Dutchman" Breidenbach, whom he also praises.
I mean, if that doesn't scream "Hey, this squad is deeper than your typical Husker team" I don't know what does.
If you trim the rotation to 8 players, it's going to leave some quality guys on the bench not getting minutes.
