  1. I mean I got 30+ years predicting this is the year we get our first tourney win. And guess what?!? I predict THIS year is the year we get our first tourney win!
  2. Sure he learned more. Unfortunately his teacher was Bill Moos.
  3. Dude has a chance to become a LEGEND! Never thought it would be a skinny kid from Japan that would take us to the promised land, but here we are.
  4. So who does the BIGTEN take? UVA and UNC? Maybe Miami? Dark horse Duke?
  5. Piatkowski didn't buy me a beer...still my favorite
  6. Tech got one ?. We got two ??. What does it mean? WHAT DOES IT MEAN??
  7. I agree. But what Sam provides is this - dude showed he can play at this level. Yeah he has his limitations. But he can play. What that does is it puts every incoming player at his position on notice. Sam looks like a guy that is all hustle all the time. Practice, hustle. Game, hustle. Walking to class, hustle. So if a new guy comes in slacking ass...Well, we got Sam we can put in and send a message. And putting Sam in doesn't give me pause one bit.
  8. I get it. I was there with you last season. We're Nebraska basketball. And its easy to say our breaks are nothing but cosmic luck. But this take completely discounts everything this team did to make those "lucky" breaks happen.
  9. Didn't know it was possible, but I am even more geeked about this squad than I was before I read your post
  10. Not worried about this at all. Since Hoiberg got here I've watched our players miss open look after open look. Hoiberg gets dudes open. Do we finally have the players that can knock those open looks down is the question.
  11. Had no idea what was going on. Had to go and Google it. This article shows just how big a moron he is. As for Kriisa if he wants to come here you take him. https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/as-bob-huggins-said-theres-no-excuse-for-him-using-a-homophobic-slur-but-how-will-west-virginia-react/
  12. This seems to be a bit of hyperbole. To put it in terms of actual records let's use Michigan St and Iowa overall and conference records last year. Both were tournament teams. And I wholeheartedly understand if we had thier record we may not have been invited, but I digress. Michigan St 21-13, 11-9 Iowa 19-14, 11-9 Nebraska 16-16, 9-11 Now that's not exactly having to climb Mount Everest in terms of improvement to get this team dancing Edit confused Mich an Mich st oops
  13. Sooooooooo color me clueless and generally out of touch. Why exactly did this get his offer revoked? Is it the lyrics? Something to do with the arm movements he is making? Good gosh I am getting old Edit-I can't really understand the lyrics and I don't know the song to look it up.
  14. Don't think there's a Petteway on this team, but I don't think that's a bad thing. That's not a dig on him either he's up there on my favorite Huskers list. On the flip side there sure as hell wasn't a Tominaga on the old team. I'm all in on this roster. I like it. I am no longer not sure if this looks like a tournament team. This looks like a tournament team. Not a lock but one that just gets in. One that causes a bunch of anxiety on Selection Sunday. But still a tournament team.
  15. Welp, it looks like we no longer get a choice. It's karate chopped in the throat/ bonga bonga.
  16. I mean how long has it been since our roster has had competition at nearly every position heading into the season? Iron sharpens iron right?!? I. Am. Stoked! From the depths of despair to start last season to the high I am on with how this off-season has played out is crazy.
  17. Ah, the classic, "Would you rather be kicked in the groin or karate chopped in the throat?" debate.
  18. Screw it. I'm jumping on this hype train with Handy. Damn everyone else's logic and reason. Choo Choo MFers!
  19. We needed a PG. We got a PG. And one that played in the Big Ten . Go ahead and put me in the "pretty stoked" column.
  20. I'd be dead right now because I would have bet my life 10 was the high water mark.
