Parker needs to shoot way more. He lit it up in high school I think the thing that is hurting him is how slow we are having to play to stay in games. In transition, he is a pretty good player, and crafty around the rim. I think he can be a better player in a few years when Miles says he hopes to speed it up a bit. He's also just a freshman trying to learn one of the most critical positions in college ball. Right now he's learning to run an offense, distribute the ball effectively, and play D on quality guards. That doesn't happen in a week. We have other guys who need to deal with shooting issues before Benny does, although it would be nice to see him find a scoring spot he could exploit to the tune of about 6-8 points a game.

maybe we can get corporate sponsorship for free throws? that'll at least keep the court from getting cluttered up. "This brick brought to you by..."

Zevon could do an entire soundtrack for this program. My first thought was "Trouble Waiting to Happen". Maybe not a bad idea to shuttle in some exorcists at night at the new arena---just to be sure.

That one's probably on Jose Ramos, too.

this positively sucks. two of my favorite huskers ever go down in their senior seasons. first rex, now brandon. i hope we have enough players to finish the season.

it seems this is why we struggle so much closing games. this will be a problem all season, and it wouldn't surprise me to see a few potential upsets evaporate because of team fatigue in the last few minutes. I don't envy Miles having to pick the poison of rest for an iffy replacement or running out of gas before the race ends.

woo hoo! we might lose our way to the post season! okay, maybe not.

i agree. lots of talent there. he'll be a good one before it's all done.

we lost on the boards, and much of that is directly attributable to superior athletes. We have to be able to live with that. I really appreciate how the guys bounced back from that monstrosity of a Wisconsin game. Their heads were right for this one, so Miles' tweaks during the week helped. Have another brutal game saturday, but, like last year, once we get out there might be some teams we can pick off from time to time.

crap. well, we gave it a helluva run until the end. we just get tired I think by the end.

we need to do better in the last two minutes of games. can't beieve they let them run that kind of time off.

rebounding story of this game. easily the difference in the score.

stauskus killing us eveytime we score.

we'e abandining the gameplan to our peril right now.

dammit. ugh.

bonus already. wheels starting to get wobbly.

ray if you're going to foul, foul. and sheesh, that pass.

woo hoo! dylan playing tonight.

I was thinking the same thing about American Idol the crying dude? yeah, that was painful.

if I see that Chase ad one more time I'll hang someone.

We still only have 20 points, so we have to find a way to score points. this won;'t hold in the 2d half.

woo hoo! congrats for setting a beautifully sluggish pace!

woo hoo! this is awesome.

homer call there. that hurts.
