Except Luis was absolutely scuffling at the plate.  Looked brutal all weekend.  I'd pitch to the guy in the slump in that situation.  Good for Luis scratching out a hit. 

I'm sure Miles would say he has made some mistakes, but what I've learned about life is you do everything right and sometimes things still don't go your way. Doing things the right way is no garantee of success but not doing things the right way almost always garentees failure. 

I vote we just use after every post!

I really hope that's true.

Something like "your father in law came and talked to me? - tell him to get over it". I think Taylor is in the wrong here, but Miles put Tai in an awkward spot bringing it up in front of a room full of reporters and cameras. 

Been trying to remember who this kid reminds me of, got it this morning while mowing.
 

Hope he can take a screen better than Kelly.

This is a total rebuild project. Those take time. The Yori grand finale ensured that any momentum from her work wouldn't carry over: not the  reputation nor the brand.
Scandal can kill programs. It's why departments are so secretive about everything.
 
It was a nice run with Yori, but, like the football team, you can't just flip a switch and get your best days back.
 
Give it a few years. If you care about the sport, support the team. If only winning matters, become a UConn fan.

I don't buy that we have bigger needs either.   We need talent period.   We got our back up center in Duby.   We've addressed outside shooting with Nana and Allen and Allen can probably play backup point as well.
 
At this point...you find the best you can get.   And this guy is pretty darned good.   It'd be a hell of a catch if Miles can land him

Contrary to what others have said or believe, I actually like how the 2018 recruiting class is coming together. Sure we need a big girl or two but that's what we need as of right now for this upcoming season.  As far as I can tell this 2018 class has touched on the positions that will be critical two years from now and going forward from that season. We got one of our future big's out of Minnesota in Kayla Mershon 6'3 ProspectNation has her at a 4-Star and the 86th best player in the class. ESPN has her pegged as the 9th best post this coming year.
 
Ashlyn Verbeek 6'2 (whom I'm really high on and many east of the Missouri River are now saying she could most likely the best player to come out of Iowa next season,) is playing with the All Iowa Attack this summer and is getting exposed to recruiting services, thus ESPN has given her a 4-Star rating and has her ranked now as the 5th best post in the nation and 50th best player in the whole class. ProspectNation has finally got her ranked as 3-1/2 Star
 
Leigha Brown 6'1 hasn't been in front of too many recruiting services but from videos I've seen she's deadly from behind the arc. And her coaches are stressing that she's an excellent rebounder.
 
For a team that has slipped to dismal debts lately, those three alone should come into NU in pretty good shape and improve the team going forward.
 
I think there's room for another verbal in this class, but we'll just have to wait and see. 

I see what you did there.  Fill up ISU's scholarships so that we have a "Hans" down better chance at getting this guy.

Ed and Micheal better say yes quick if they both still want to be together and at ISU.

We'll see this next year if that's Coaches philosophy.  We're going to be real guard heavy, so it pretty much has to be run and gun. Will be interesting to see if we have enough numbers... skilled enough... to be able to run all game long. But we will have more experience than this last year for sure.
 
We do have to rebound on the defensive end...so can we do it ??
 
Rebuilding.....what a pain

And not project bigs

I meant recruiting players at a much higher level than RCJ.  Players you compete in the Big 10 with. No offense to the young lady, who plays with good effort, but she isn't a Power 5 athlete or player.  Never gonna be.  And we have guards as good as her (and better if the transfers reputation is even close to deserved) to put on the floor.  What we don't have is any proven post players.   If we continue to be a bottom dweller, it will have nothing to do  with not offering RCJ.   It will be because this staff in the short term didn't add any inside players, and in the long term, just doesn't have the contacts and recruiting chops to get it done at this level.  Now, there's still time to prove they do.  But the early returns are troublesome, and the whole thing was a reach in the first place by our AD.  

Welcome to the Huskers Leigha.

Please don't do this to me. My heart can't take it this early on a Monday. 

Bottom line:  He was a 6-7 kid (with some nice tools) who could barely dunk. 
 
Ya'll remember that dunk that Shavon Shields threw down against Dunk City in the inaugural game at PBA?  Everyone was like, "he can dunk like that?"  People were surprised how athletic Shavon was.  Two guys the same size; Shavon was much more athletic; Jeriah could shoot better.  Tulsa is a good landing spot for Jeriah.  He'll do well there.  I wish him nothing but the best.

Agreed.  I'd rather have him here than play against him 2 years with those other guys.
 
Hey, it's not like we don't have room.

Hoping to read that new book called The Unburned Bridges of Lancaster County

I hear Syracuse is looking for a serial grad transfer.

listened to the last couple innings. what a wild 8th inning from osu!!! i played baseball----been there, done that. man, i ran into similar situations a few times. seems like "that inning"------ no matter who/what you throw at the opposing team, you just can't get them out----or seems to take forever, anyway. guess that gave them the split. 
oops, sunday's win did give them a series win.

I'm going to guess Maryland ends up going 18-6 in conference this year.  Can we get to 18 wins? That would mean winning out.....and honestly, with our remaining schedule that's not all that far fetched. Probably unfair to expect that though.  Illinois could do us a favor and take the series vs Maryland.
