  1. I couldn't disagree more with the first two bullet points. Bryce looked like Teddy Allen and Verge forgot how to be a PG. Too much iso ball from both of those guys didn't allow any other shooters to get into a rhythm. Terrible ball movement.
  2. I can't imagine it's going to take long for these rankings to be adjusted to move Nebraska down to where the media ranked them.
  3. Terrible energy. Terrible ball movement.
  4. If he thinks that was a crazy PBA environment, then a couple of weeks from now when the place is really rocking should be a fun experience for him.
  5. I think this could be an intriguing lineup too, but I would be a little nervous about Edwards ability to guard the 4 vs Power5 teams, especially in the physical Big Ten. 1- Verge 2- McGowens 3- McGowens 4- Edwards 5- Walker That could be an explosive lineup vs teams that play a little bit more small ball, but he’s probably a little under sized (at least this season as a freshman) to guard the 4 in the Big Ten on most nights.
  6. I'm here for the crowd at PBA repeating the "Bing Bong" over and over while players from the opposing team are shooting free throws.
  7. I was referencing this from Knicks fans a few days ago after the season opener (Definitely some 4 letter words in this clip, so if that bothers you, then don't click play):
  8. Nebraska volleyball playing Wisconsin tonight, so I'm guessing the crowd won't be packed for an exhibition game tonight
  9. Yeah, I've pretty much hoped to see him starting since the day he committed to Nebraska. He was basically a 5 star before he reclassified to enter college early. He did that because of what his high school was doing in response to COVID. Then, he joined his college team at semester, which would always be hard to crack the lineup in any meaningful way under normal circumstances, but then his team and himself personally had COVID issues on top of that. I really like him. His film is super impressive. I'm honestly probably as excited to see him play as I am to see Bryce play. And seeing them both in the starting lineup together would be crazy. My ideal starting lineup would be: PG- Trey McGowens (6'4") Wing- Bryce McGowens (6'6") Wing- Keon Edwards (6'7") Wing- Lat Mayen (6'9") C- Derrick Walker (6'8") I like the athleticism of this lineup, especially on defense and it would allow them to switch virtually all screens. I also think the length would be tough for opposing teams to handle and I think this would be a good rebounding lineup. Then on offense, there are multiple players that can shoot from outside and multiple players that can get to the basket and finish dynamically above the rim. I like the idea of Verge coming off of the bench to take the place of McGowens, rather than playing next to him. And I think having a bench rotation that comes in that is some combination of Verge, Wilcher, Breidenbach, and Tominaga would also be a great lineup to give the starters a breather. But that's just what I prefer to see in a starting lineup. I prefer long and athletic lineups. From what it sounds like though, most people think the starting rotation will be Verge, McGowens, McGowens, Mayen, and Walker, so it doesn't look like my preferred lineup will happen.
  10. Looking forward to some highlight reel dunks when Edwards gets breakaway opportunities. His athleticism dunking the ball is next level.
  11. I don't know about specific record, but I think the Huskers will finish between 6th-8th in the Big Ten regular season standings.
  12. It would be pretty exciting to see these two in the starting lineup together:
