Keisei winning this and putting on a show is so good for Nebraska Basketball! I love seeing all the publicity he’s getting and Nebraska is too!
 
Up and Up!

Just an elite elite shooter. Legend

How could you not want him back!?!?  He IS Him!

Nebraska’s Fred Hoiberg is the recipient of the 2023-24 Jim Phelan National Coach of the Year award.  The award is presented annually to the top head coach in division I college basketball.  Hoiberg led the Cornhuskers to their first NCAA tournament appearance since 2014. Nebraska finished with 23 victories - the program’s most since 1991.  Nebraska was top-40 nationally in adjusted offensive and defensive efficiency, holding opponents to a top-20 defensive field goal percentage. The Cornhuskers finished third in the Big 10, posting a winning record for only the third time since they joined the league for the 2011-12 season. Hoiberg is the second Husker men’s basketball coach to earn the honor, as Tim Miles was the 2014 Jim Phelan National Coach of the Year.
 
The Jim Phelan Award is named in honor of a legendary bow-tied coach who spent his entire head coaching career at Mount Saint Mary’s University. Phelan graduated from La Salle University in 1951 and played one season in the NBA with the Philadelphia Warriors. After a brief professional career, Phelan went to Mount St. Mary’s as an assistant in 1953. One year later he began his historical career as a head coach. He led the Mountaineers to 16 Division II NCAA tournaments. Five times they advanced to the Final Four and he led them to the DII National Championship in 1962. When he retired in 2003, after coaching for 49 years, he had amassed 830 wins (overall record of 830-524) in all divisions. In those 49 years, 19 of his teams amassed 20 or more wins in a season. In 2008 he was inducted into National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame. The recipient of the annual award is determined by a 10-member voting committee, which consists of current and former head coaches, as well as two senior staff members of collegeinsider.com.

I watched Creme Abdul-Jabbar yesterday

I am not joking that I have Indiana St. winning in my bracket in part because I found out they were playing the Final 4 in Indiana.
I'm doing well!
 

Remember how mast wore down at the end of the year. He was around 29 mpg and by the end of the year he looked like a shell of himself. The knee scope probably played a role. But this guy played about 23 mpg at NDSU. I anticipate it'll be around 18-22 here, mostly in Mast relief. Having a shooting big on the floor at all times too. 

Knew there would be some departures. Wouldn’t have imagined this many. 

Dain Dainja just entered from Illinois. Could be an upgrade from Kieta???

There's other boards?!? Blasphemy! 

Well, Frankie posted this a few moments ago. So Frankie could go to Wisconsin. They could both come to Nebraska.
Or, they could end up taking the sweater vest money and end up at Creighton. Then could start dating our volleyball players. 

Lots of smoke around Chucky entering today…..

We need a big, enforcer/rebounder presence on the inside. 2 if Blaise can’t get healed.
 
We need a solid, even above solid option at PG. maybe it’s Uhlis, maybe not. 
 
My gut says CJ may be done at NU, just a gut feel, no info behind that.
 
If CJ moves on, arguable our top 2 3pt shooters are departing. Need to find some outside shooting.
