I chose my words carefully as not to say something that'd seem like a funeral. "Thanks for all the work you do" (not did), and "We Love You Tim"

Id love a medium

So reading through all of your guys' comments, it appears that I'm not the only one who really loves Tim and was super excited when he got hired, and is seriously bummed its coming to an end like this. My idea for the game Sunday is what if we have a ton of posters being held up around the Arena that say messages like "We Love You Tim" and "Thanks for everything you do Tim" and stuff like that. Let Tim know that we really do appreciate all the hard work and branding and energy he's put into Husker basketball these last 7 years and make him feel special and that it didn't go unnoticed in what may be his last game in the Vault. Thoughts?

What about Thad Matta and Lon Kruger ?

As a walk-on? Costello is better

Lon Kruger I would be in favor of.

Woah

Washut is the best and it's not close.

Chris Heady's favorite team is whoever Nebraska is playing against that night.

Im actually starting to hear that Hoiberg rumors are legit..

I'm always skeptical to believe anything i read on here after last march i read on selection sunday we'd made the play in game of the tournament lmao

If we get Hoiberg he knows enough of the game to atleast have really good recruiting assistants. I wonder if Armon or Michael would be asked to stay??

Bump

@Norm Peterson

I'm actually on the side thinking that talent is quite a bit lacking in Nebraska.. Yes there have been a few very good players we missed out on (Justin Patton, Khyri Thomas, Akoy (although didn't have a great career), Mike Daum, Treshawn Thurman sort of. But when you look at the talent produced in Minnesota/Indiana/Kansas we are I'd say bottom half/quarter in the US of in-state talent consistently produced. If you take Nebraska between 2016-2019 according to the 247 we have 5 guys that are atleast a 3 star recruit (None higher than 3). Teddy Allen, Ed Chang, Brady, Shereef, Akol. Some other nearby states in that 2016-2019 range: Colorado - 13 (2 4-stars, 11 3-stars) Illinois - 60 (15 4-stars, 45 3-stars) Indiana - 68 (7 5-stars, 13 4-stars, 48 3-stars) Iowa - 12 (4 4-stars, 8 3-stars) Kansas - 33 (5 4-stars, 28 3-stars) Minnesota - 27 (2 5-stars, 8 4-stars, 17 3-stars) Nebraska - 5 (5-3 stars) I would add Michigan, Oklahoma, and Wisconsin and others but I think you get the point, and that is without the big names like Texas, California, Florida, New York, etc. Yes we do have a little more talent than maybe the Dakotas, Wyoming, Alaska maybe? But in terms of other states with P5 programs we are a bottom outlier for in-state talent. Yes we missed on a few (Khyri, JP, Teddy, Akoy i guess) but really we are a little brother compared to other states in this aspect which will continue to hurt our coaches chances.

Go get Hoiberg.. the end

My boy

Hoiberg would be an incredible hire.

I wanted this win so bad in the second half, not even for our resume or any hopes of the postseason, but just to reward these guys for sticking with it and how hard they played and well they shot.

Same, Tim is the inspiration I had to get into coaching. First time i met him felt like it was meeting a movie star.

Who would've known that Okie State game in Sioux Falls would be the last time we'd ever get to have fun.
