I dedicate this 15,000th post to Nebraska fans. We all stick together, in all kinds of weather, for dear old Nebraska U. GO BIG RED!!

With the long drought of Husker hoops, I figured I'd bring up the recent past. My instincts as the season was unfolding were telling me that we missed an opportunity against Nevada, but Georgia Tech wasn't all that bad of a loss. So I figured I'd take a look back and see how our opponents are doing so far in the season.

It would be surprising if that was the first box and one he's seen. Kidney was running that against some of the top 8th grade girls.

Gotta love those LCC players. They are a tenacious bunch...always have been ;)

We’re undefeated in Quad 4 games #GBR..!

Watched his game last night on TV. LCC ran a box and one on him, and held him to 14. You could still see he has outstanding skills on offense. Young kid, so I don't want to be too harsh, but that defense really frustrated him, and he basically just gave up. Stood around well outside of the perimeter, passively.
