When you asked the Genie for the Huskers to be playing basketball late into March so you could watch them… you should have been more specific my guy.

Coach Loenser was at the arena today, taking in Class A games. He was sitting with ex-husker and current Central coach Bruce Chubick. Good to see.

I will be in the minority, but I hope Gavin stays. He looked like a deer in the headlights this year. I am hoping another year in Fred's system will get him to be the player he was suppose to be coming out of high school. My philosophy would be to take guys with multiple years of eligibility remaining. The ones with one year remaining seem to struggle.

Maybe the boys need a cut out of Rachel Page.

3 in row.

I see that Prince, Potts, and Amy Williams are all "following" Serah Williams on her X account. What does it mean?

Those two seem like they'd get along

Yea— OSU and NW will be the Crown invite autobids

My wish list last portal season wasn't realistic. Who knows who will enter the portal and who won't, but a somewhat more realistic wish list that might check some of your boxes could include... #2 on your list - Josh Dix. But he would likely have much better $ offers. Can be a primary ball handler, very good vision. Elite shooter. From Council Bluffs. #3 - Jamarques Lawrence. Some smoke is going around. No idea if there's fire. #4/5 - Bangot Dak. Has a relationship with the coaching staff. Has developed well at Colorado. Could play the Allick role at a higher level. A Mast/Berke/Dak (or similar) frontcourt rotation (with Frager in a swing 3/4 role) would have the potential to be > the '24 frontcourt, which was >>> the '25 frontcourt. That would be a good start.

#1 for me is we HAVE to get more athletic. #2 Point Guard that can create shots for others (think Wooster could do this) AND actually be a threat to put the ball in the basket (Wooster not so good at this). #3 Combo Guard and Wing that can put the ball in the basket regularly when left open. #4 Back up big to give Mast some relief. #5 Rim protector but also a 4 that can score on a regular basis. Hard to know how many to place on this list not knowing who (if any) Fred tells they need to move on. I am hoping that Mast, the two Freshman and Berke and Essegian stick around.

Wrong Olivia Hamlin. She signed her letter of intent back in November.

So YOU'RE the one to blame for us ending up where we are!

May be totally off base here, but I believe Mast's passing ability will greatly assist a guy like Connor who was missed on multiple cuts to the hoop this year. If Connor can really work to elevate his defensive efficiencies this offseason, add me into a column of a Keisei Jr to Sr year type jump for Connor. (And no, I'm not saying that Connor will be Keisei 2.0 -- I'm more saying he could make quite the leap)

Definitely more of a top tier mid-major league than not. Shoot-- some of those teams have historically gotten what? 11/12 seeds in the not so distant past? A lot of good individual players for sure.

Minnesota will have a new coach as Ben Johnson was let go
