Moos sucks. If losing @ Minnesota is the worse loss this year and we continue our home game winning streak, the Minnesota loss will be a small pothole in a golden brick road. Assuming Minnesota is an NIT level team Way too early for people to be going crazy like this. I was on another board, and they were coming up with lists of replacements after the Minnesota game. Really makes me think who I hate more, creighton fans or the breed of husker fans that blindly want Miles gone and will never credit him for the positive things he has done.

If Miles does not get a 4-6 year extension at the end of this season, I'm off the Moos bandwagon. Yeah, he's here to fix football, but don't ruin basketball. I hope some donors can get in his ear with support for Miles (maybe remind him of the Devaney years when there were only 5K at the arena). I think the fact coach only received a 1 year extension was a joke. Its time Moos hitches his cart to coach Miles. Hasn't Moos only hired 1 basketball coach twice? I mean come on. OK, rant over, I feel better. ?

Anybody that can play at a high level in major division 1 basketball is a phenomenal athlete. More athletic than you could possibly imagine. IIRC, all of those guys are still playing pro ball so, yes...they are great. Way to throw some pretty serious shade at guys who have played for the team you claim to be a fan of.

At some point you have to make the decision whether he is your guy or not. You state that we are losing our best three players. Probably correct. How many more have we lost because of his contract? We know of one at least. If he gets it done this year, give him a deal that’s going to allow him to do what he does best. That’s recruit.

GM is a DB. Bottom line.

Nah, I’m being sarcastic (at least a little). I’m just not a Moos fanboy and don’t like how he’s approached the basketball program. Feels a bit Eichorst/Pelini-ish.

I blame finals week and the fact that we don't have a mid-week game.

Late to the party here Short but sweet analysis. Saturday evening was very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very enjoyable.

This might sound glib, but we wore the red because the players wanted to. Not really anything more complicated than that. I thought it looked great.

This is undoubtedly one of my three greatest life achievements. In no particular order: 1) Finding woman to marry me 2) Finding woman to birth two children that I think are mine 3) Leading the greatest message board competition of all time A close 4th is being directly quoted on Blue Jay Underground for my score prediction: Recruited Fairly - 84 Paid to Play - 75 Wish I would have given us more credit like my gut was telling me!!!

Denver is 7-2 with losses to No.Colo and Wyoming, both of these games were on the road. Denver has only played three roads games up to tonight, they play at New Mexico State tomorrow night. Denver averages 86.1 pts. a game & 43.9 rbs a game. they shoot .451 from the field & .434 from behind the arc they also avg. 16.6 asst & 16.1 TO's a game. the asst to TO ratio is 1.0. Denver has six players over 6' the starting five looks like this, Samantha Romanowski 5'9" has played 278 mins. avgs. 8.6 pts, Claire Gritt 5'10" has played 267 mins. avgs. 12.3 pts, Lauren Loven 5'7' has played 258 mins. avgs. 18.3 pts, Madison Nelson 6'1" has played 248 mins. avgs. 14.9 pts, Sydney Mech 6'2" has played 228 mins. avgs 8.3 pts. Nelson and Mech both have 16 blocks on the year, with Romanowski following with 12. Denver plays seven to eight players when the going gets tough. Jim Turgeon is Mark Turgeon's brother and Maddie's Uncle. here is a link to the Denver's stats if you guys would like to look at them. https://denverpioneers.com/cumestats.aspx?path=wbball&year=2018

I think you're mostly correct. I think Tim will be looking for another starter, and I also think the roster is not yet set. I think Heiman will be a solid backup for a B1G team a year from now, but he's probably not yet going to be starting material next year. At least if we want to remain competitive for the top half of the league. If we want to remain in contention for the top half of the league, we will need to find a suitable replacement for Copeland and hope and pray that Roby stays. Seems to me our best bet is a grad transfer big. That kid from Tulane we played a few years back who did a grad transfer after that season? That kind of player. We have minutes and we have a backcourt, so we should be an attractive landing spot for someone who wants to try to really make their mark in their final season.

Seems more like general optimism about picking up where this successful year ends up

If the sell out streak is ever in jeopardy for Husker football, I think a day where swiss mushroom runzas are sold at Memorial Stadium could right that ship.

Don't worry. Before long the entire team will be listed.

I had the Spicy Jack Runza, and it tasted like SWEET VICTORY!

30 plus years of marriage will do that, err wait, I think she knows my password here.

Inexcusable for OSU to be 4-5 right now. No way they should have lost at Charlotte or Tulsa. They should be 6-3 at worst, not 4-5. This was supposed to be a Q1 win against a top 50 team on a neutral floor and those guys have ruined it. Jerks.

Appreciate this thread. Out to dinner and can’t listen.

Karrington Davis is walking!

It's a thing

Was at the game on Saturday, I will say as a creighton fan I was unsettled due to the environment so who knows how the players felt when the place erupted 5-6 times. PBA is an incredible venue. props to you guys, you beat us fair and square. The defensive effort we brought to a rivalry game was quite undeserving of a win.

You're quicker to dismiss Moos than I am. It wouldn't surprise me at all if he said it off the record. Dude appears to be looking for reasons to make a change.

It wasn't spit. It was tears. Sweet, glorious, tears.

Standhardinger has confirmed this.

My how time flies. The last one of these I started, we were counting the number of "agins," and had Sak and a guy named Verlander playing for us. Seems like yesterday....

I'll take it. I'll take it right now. Don't even have to play the games.

So Matthew retweeted something about Chucky Hepburn... Did they meet on a visit to Lincoln? Practically a soft verbal for both of them playing together in Lincoln

It's more like — OK, this season is definitely gonna be a fun ride. Can we come close to repeating such awesomeness, or will we be merely good?

My turn: 1 — Allen has shown his ability to penetrate and either score or kick. He can be everything that Glynn is on both ends of the court. MAW backs him up, with Harris as a possibility. 2 — Burke appears to be the slasher/scorer that we've had in Petteway and Palmer. Harris and/or Green can back him up. 3 — Akenten has shown athleticism enough on both ends to be given a shot until we know if Green can play at this level. Green and/or Harris back him up. Akol sits for a year. 4 — Roby gets a year in at his natural position, but there's no backup at this time. Nana could stretch if he had to. 5 — Heiman will be ready to start, but he'll need a year more to crack the top half of conference 5's. No backup unless Tanner appeals for another year or we find a grad transfer who can sub in at 4 and 5.

I'll go for next year's starting 5. Assuming Roby comes back: Allen Burke Green Roby Heimann Akenten Harris Frontcourt player yet to be named Adams-Woods Frontcourt player yet to be named

The last two days have been so blissful. I particularly liked the angsty, sorrow that was Blue Jay Banter. The world is just a little brighter when the Blue is blue. Also, I really enjoyed Jack's show. I hope that think takes off.

Seems like every year we're replacing great players. Ubel, Petteway, Shields, Webster, Gill, Taylor... funny how that happens.

If this year goes as we hope (NCAA or better)...yes...he should get one. If it doesn't....(NIT or worse)...then we should be shopping.

If a dude makes 60-65% of mid-range shots, I have no issue with a dude taking them. (Cope is a dude.)

We were silly and used all of the slush fund on one guy and he didn't come.

There you have it, the double T was about the coaching box.

Talking about the coat drive. Tom Allen is an impressive dude!

Nope. Sad.

I watched them when they played Minnesota, thought they would eventually pull it out but they had no answer for Murphy or Washington. We should match up w them extremely well.

I've lived in Omaha since 2011. Huskers last win against Council Bluffs State was in 2010. It feels so good to walk into work today and my blue bird coworkers weren't chirping. I made sure to walk in wearing my Husker basketball sweatshirt and dropped off a bag of 100 grand bars to the break room. I'm gonna enjoy this year folks and I hope we all do. #letemcry

We are ranked 11th here...

Maybe that flopping piece of crap won't get the benefit of the doubt when he fakes taking a charge now.

This just isn't correct IMO. If you were correct, the trends wouldn't continue towards it.

The only time you'll see a reference to Creighton and "D" in the same paragraph.

We are 2-0 when I pick against us. Screw the contest. I'm taking one for the team.
