It’s the Aqua Velva/Just for Men combo. A scent that is subconsciously attractive to cougars in dive bars and basketball players under 22.

You guys seem to be forgetting we may have gotten a program changing player in Britt prince, still need some depth in the post but the last 2 classes seemed pretty good from my point of view

I'm beginning to think a higher power is using this situation to test me to see how long I can stay positive. Something needs to happen cause I feel a slight crumble in my foundation.

We have the facilities to attract higher profile athletes here. I think some of it could be some do not feel it is a good fit with the staff, also sometimes why players leave. The staff sees them one way and they feel the can add more. Sometimes those players move on and we can look back and say yes the staff made a mistake. sometimes the staff was correct. Post season success can add to HS kids wanting to play here as well as portal players wanting to come to NE. Let's remember Amy just only won her first NCAA game this year. Winning in the dance is a bigger eye catcher the just making it and taking a loss in the 1st game. Also she just made to a B1G tourney Championship game this year in her 8 year in the league. We need more post season success to turn recruiting around. So a little luck with no major injuries and a nice run in the B1G and NCAA tourney will help.

I've come to understand and accept that college basketball recruiting (both men's and women's) has dramatically changed. Yes a battle seems to have been lost, but the war is far from over. For example, it seems we are now seeing foreign born players finally finding landing spots. There are still portal athletes and JUCO players and a plethora of high school juniors and seniors available. Obviously some better than others. So although I am concerned about front court depth (both men's and women's) it is too early to throw in the towel.

I'm very concerned, but I've been very concerned for quite some time. We had some good games later in the season, but still suffered from inconsistencies. I hoped we would pick up some solid players from the portal, but so far, we only know of one. Now we find out we lost a top recruit (I did not read the article since it's paywall, so I don't know if there was a reason included or not), but then again, I never feel it's a done deal until the player is signed and on campus. We have three freshmen coming in, but one is injured and may not play and is also short, so not sure how much of an impact she will make anyway. The other two are solid and will need to adapt quickly, especially since our conference is growing and getting even tougher. Maybe the team will surprise me this next year, I sincerely hope they do, but I honestly feel like we may be looking at finishing in the bottom half.

Maybe staff went on summer vacation in March. How would you know? I mostly read LJS and OWH. Even with that limited access, I read of the efforts Hoiberg has been making to build his roster. You read articles daily how the football team is chasing recruits. They promote their programs. WBB? Have read very little, if anything, since we gave our coach a contract extension. The silence is deafening. With the roster improvements existing teams have made through the portal and recruiting, and the addition of the new teams to the conference, I'm concerned. I hope I'm wrong. As mentioned by others, there is still some time to bolster the roster through the portal. Fingers crossed. Honestly, I find more information on this small site regarding Husker WBB, than anywhere else. Yet, that isn't much. Wish more was shared. GBR

I've felt like the coaching with Underwood can be iffy at times but that guy has always been able to find and pull in talent even before he got to Illinois.

I’m guessing Lue & Belcher might provide a “Soft Landing” for KT with the Clippers. He’d be an Instant Star ️ in Hollywood.

Tough to lose a touted player. It will require more work for our staff. We need a big.

Parts of your argument is what I believe as well. Specifically, that the current system will lead to the downfall of college athletics as we know them. We won't see this happen for DECADES. Fans the way fans need to be created to sustain the level of revenue that keeps this whole thing humming along won't be created any more. Not the numbers you need anyway. But ultimately this argument is moot. The NCAA is done. Everything that is happening now is just the death weeze until the 2 super conferences are born. Then we can just blame the downfall on that

well........that stinks. at first started to think maybe OU or OSU came calling and staying close to home, however, i see in her statement she stated any interested schools to contact her coach (paraphrasing).

However, one of the greatest things about this system is a kid who's under the radar and only gets recruited to a small school to play basketball. He's now able to earn his way into a P5 school much more easily than ever before and have a very successful collegiate career at the highest level.

Lets goooo Schwelly!

Another new article on Weidner's return. Interesting note is that if there's an ACL injury on one knee.... Females who receive ACL reconstruction surgery are six times more likely to injure their opposite knee within 24 months after the surgery than someone who never tore an ACL. https://www.on3.com/teams/nebraska-cornhuskers/news/nebraska-guard-allison-weidner-returns-to-basketball-after-back-to-back-acls/

Is not related to Mariah Carey

I am hoping she can be injury free for her last two years. We will need her leadership on and off the court.

I haven’t heard anything. Like everyone on here, I’m hoping she can return and physically be the player she was 2 years ago before this horrible luck befell her. At least she doesn’t have a 3rd knee that could blow out next season!

Saw we lost Mathurin.
