I guess I'm confused. They way I 1st read your post was that you argued the expectations here may be too high. Which could scare off future potential coaches. But this post makes me think you are arguing the opposite. Or possibly the expectations are high because the pay for the head coach supports higher expectations. Anyhoo, that we are having these discussions at this juncture of Hoibergs tenure absolutely blows.

In what world is the expectation here to make the post season every year. What coach believes that is the expectation here. Seems like a strawman argument based on statements from message boards.

If having the WORST 3 year stretch in program history is overrated expectations then we should all just pack it up.

Time to part ways. I my view there is nothing you can state to support bringing him back except a large buyout.

Good comparison. Both are soft. But in vastly different ways.

When the announcers are musing how a team stays focused knowing the dumpster fire that is Nebraska Basketball is coming up on thier schedule it has to be the bottom right?!?

If you don't have anything nice to say...

This is just silly logic. You could put any role player from any other team on this one and we would still be a bad team. And it has nothing to do with the role player.

Pfft. Patience and development?!? We'll just reload in the transfer market. It's all the rage. Pretty soon it'll be nothing but dancing and banners!

Good gosh. If I win this bet I lose. If I lose this bet I lose. Is this Vegas in Nebrasketball hell?!?

If fate has a sense of irony its the Omega variant we have to worry about.

I know its been picked. But I think we angered the basketball gods and are being punished. So I say we are going winless.

My hunch is the exact opposite

I don't see how we aren't doing anything but battling for the celler of the Big Ten again next year. Possibly running away with it for a fourth year in a row.

Maybe Hoiberg is a benevolent coach and sparing them the massive development hit they would surely take from having to play on this team.

Us 61 Them 58 I do not expect a win. Possibly the rest of the season. At least I can binge watch The Witcher

Some young hungry sports writer probably does have the dirt but when they ran the story by their editor the editor said there's absolutely no way they're wasting any time or space on a story about Nebraska Basketball...No one cares about them Youngblood.

This is getting to 20

I don't know about that. My brother in law coaches men's tennis at Wisconsin and he was texting me about it. Not saying he's substantial, but its definitely out there.

I mean how do you evaluate talent of recruits, coaches, or anyone for that matter if you don't evaluate everything? Would you say Hoiberg was a talented coach before he got here? Does his record before he got here matter? Is our current team talented? What they've done here would suggest they are not at all talented. Is that really the case? By your logic it is.

It has led to a couple of wins
