Faux Mike Peltz

Interesting connection with Taylor and Reaves...Taylor stole it from Reaves at the end of the first half and scored on him, didn’t know it was a former HS teammate!

Deon Thomas just said beating Michigan wouldn’t be enough, they still would have more work to do. Mike Decourcy agreed. Hey, nobody can accuse the BTN analysts of being homers for the conference. Except during the Sandusky scandal.

If you want to get pissed quick, turn it to BTN and listen to them talk about the clear separation of the top four teams from the rest of the pack, and say “some could say maybe Nebraska belongs in the top five..” Also said “we all know Nebraska still has a ton of work to do” define a “ton” Dave Revsine??

The steal and layup underneath the basket by ET embodied that guy in the most ET of ways. He actually became my favorite player this year. Love his heart. Let’s take down Michigan or Iowa or Illinois!!!

You can take Creighton off that bubble list now...

Absolutely love Evan Taylor. I know some who sit around me don’t, and are quite vocal about it, but he is our lunch pail leader, who has made numerous energizer-Benny type plays that part go unnoticed. Agreed, he will be hard to replace.

Shon Morris, as off his rocker as he was after the Maryland game, just listed his top five games in order, and #1 was Penn State at Nebraska. Told Big Ten fans to circle it. Lots at stake! Oh, so was Jack Mitchell right about it being born on his radio show?

No Sit Sunday - first season my 7 year old went to almost all of the games. A memory he and I will always have NU VS CU when Mike Peltz smashed Avery Dingman and Grant Gibbs in the loose ball scrum. Any game with Amos Gregory or Lance Jeter.

Shon Morris is off his rocker...sheesh

I thought it was interesting that barely anyone from recent teams came back, or at least was there for the court recognition. Velander, Turek, and those guys, but barely if any of Doc’s guys or even Miles previous teams were there. I texted the real Mike Peltz and he couldn’t make it this weekend. A few years ago he came back from Alliance and drove all the way to Omaha to watch my son play little league hoops. Meant the world to my son. Still cool to see some of the guys that gave us so many memories.

The walk to Decaney made it so much better when you actually made it inside the door...a miracle I didn’t get frostbite on some of those walks. I have many fond memories of the Bob. My eyes may have welled up a bit during the video they played during the final game VS. Minnesota.

Good win. Took care of business and can prep for Sanders and Baker this Saturday. Rutgers just played Purdue tough at home, but I feel good at the Vault. GBR!

What a gutty performance. Like Copeland said, if it was earlier in the season, I’m not sure they fight their way back. To go on a run like this and against Northwestern on the road to finish the game, it’s pretty fun and I could get used to it. Man I think Evan’s a gamer. I know he is somewhat limited offensively and some think he plays out of control, but I absolutely love the guy. He brings the energy and sets the tone on defense. His little things add up. I think we will miss him next year much more than we think. Oh, we just got some love on ESPN, Scott Van Pelt with the Best thing I saw, he says “if you’re sleeping on Nebrasketball, this right here is your wake up call” “this could be a tournament team” and proceeds to show the iverson dunk, then basically a entire comeback. Nice to get some sports center love!

Oops, I was off by one. Told ya’all, never any doubt. (Typed in sarcasm font)

I’m starting to dislike Wisconsin at a Creighton level.

Sweet dish from Watson to Palmer. Glynn has to stay aggressive and not just pull up for three’s.

We need to come out in the second half with some renewed energy, get our big three going with solid contributions from our role players, and we win by 10.

It’s an awful lot to ask a team to prepare for four offensive threats, which I think we have in Palmer, Copeland, Roby, and Glynn, even though Glynn isn’t shooting much lately. Fun atmosphere. Scored four lower level tickets VS my normal 200 and it was a fun upgrade. Glad to see ET have a solid game. Jordy had a very good game, wonder if that’s why Duby and Tanner didn’t play? Bohannon reminds me of a Creighton player. Tyler Cook is a beast. All in all, a good win!

There were some prime bleacher seats in the bob back in the day...must’ve been a game during holiday break..

I’m by no means an NBA scout, but I have league pass and catch as many games as I can throughout the week, which is typically a dozen or so...I know, I’m a rare diehard NBA fan. I tend to agree with basketballjones, while I think Roby has the potential to be an NBA player, he’s a ways away from that happening. His build/frame is kind of like Paul George, I believe Roby is 6-8, 214 with a 7-2 wingspan, PG is 6-9, 220 with a 7-1 wingspan. I see Roby playing the three in the NBA, so his ability to guard the perimeter will have to get better. Some smaller details, I think it was against Illinois he threw a skip pass to Tom Allen and it was about four feet too high, Miles even mentioned it on his radio show, those type of things need to tighten up. I do agree that Roby probably doesn’t know how good he can be and he’s somewhat raw, he’s not there yet, but could certainly be in the future. I also agree that BK being the only option would be a bad thing, their fries need help!

Palmer has more length and probably three inches taller. I certainly see the comparison, Cookie was a very fun player to watch. Speaking of comparisons, I slightly missed years ago when I saw Chris Balham in practice and told a guy next to me he could be like LaPhonso Ellis.

Biggest thing tonight...a win is a win, and it’s still a win. Gutted it out on a quick turnaround from Ohio and now continue momentum at home with Iowa. Let’s keep it going!

An important conference road win. Good win. Now let’s smoke Iowa!

In a game like this, where we played not our best and still kept it close, the little things add up. Duby coming in and basically causing two turnovers on screens, ET losing the ball on a layup, Roby missing the front of a one and one, Glynn getting behind his man and fouling towards the end, you can’t overcome those type of things if you aren’t playing well and still expect to win the game.

Let it fly??
