I don't think so. I think this would have happened regardless of any portal activity by us.

Should be a shock to exactly no one

Who would they ask who might have any kind of an answer? Amy is notoriously controlling about the degree and timing of any program information. Soundbite tweets with platitudes, but nothing revealing or insightful. I suppose that is her right, and she’s certainly is not the first or only Coach to treat the media, and indirectly the fans, that way. I suppose Goehle was, as were certain injured players, “day to day”.

Maybe that's why some NIL calls were made today.

I wouldn’t take these quotes at face value

2020 C John Hugley -> Pitt-> Oklahoma->Xavier
HB replied to Navin R. Johnson's topic in Husker Hoops Recruiting
Per Washut Hugley is no longer visiting and that ship has sailed. -
Hugely is not gonna happen; no longer visiting.
-
Yeah, the only time that gets complicated is when CU plays Iowa....
-
Neither Wrightsell or Sallis are a point guard. And from what I've been told, we aren't getting both of them. One at most.

All hail @Huskerpapa

I say validating Huskerpapa EDIT: Well, that will still happen!

At the risk of brevity in responding, we lost our best 2 players, and best defender, on an 11th place team. We need more than a couple key pieces to have substantially more success. Fred wants more than 2 from this portal season.

Hey, I've actually seen the Shims Shammers in a state of partial undress in the locker room. Big mistaken entry into forbidden territory. 30 years ago, and I'm still traumatized.

There was some great basketball played by ridiculously talented players. Would hope we wouldn't need it to flirt with being an all-star wrestling event. Individuals drawing attention attention to themselves, such as a coach dressed like a pink flamingo impersonating Elton John. I'm sure it's just my generational challenge showing up again, but this (Reece over the top taunting followed by days of doubling down comments; Clark doing her thing to a lesser degree) depresses me. It will become a new standard, and we will see much more of it. And in my old man views, athletic competition will be lessened because of it. Do the strutting visuals in the Reece/Clark stuff take it to a different level than the Bird/Jordan smack-talking days? Did Rodman degrade anything long-term? I'm trying to be reflective on it all, but I can't get to "this" deserving of praise at worse and "it's cool; it grows the game" at best. Damn, another cloud that needs a fist shake.

80%. (key word "guess" ). Last I heard odds were high in favor of him returning, but I haven't heard anything in a couple of weeks.
-
Caitlin Clark and I disagree. She suggests that smack talk is what draws fans to the game, rather than the sport of basketball itself. I hope she's wrong, and her promotion of the antics of Reece and her is rejected. I suppose sportsmanship is a tired old virtue that has run its course. Now, excuse me; I have to go shake my fist at a cloud.
-
I will say Clark is lucky that SC player didn’t punch her right in the mouth. She earned it. No fan at all of what Reece did, and has continued to do. But I have no respect or appreciation for how Bluder and Clark go about their business, game in and game out. Is it worse than Bird and Jordan? I don’t know, perhaps not. I’m probably just a grumpy old guy. I’ve never been great at anything. If I was, I hope I wouldn’t act like some of these superstars act. But maybe that’s part of what makes them great. Anyway, Reece is out of line and making up her persecution excuse about no respect. They are all diminished in my mind.

2021 SG Hunter Sallis ->Gonzaga->Wake Forest
HB replied to AuroranHusker's topic in Husker Hoops Recruiting
Total speculation on Wilcher and what he’s been told. Sallis plays big minutes in the Sweet 16 and elite 8, and you have him behind a guy who hasn’t played a minute of college basketball. Ok. -

You think Wilcher would play ahead of him? -
