Atmosphere was great today if you were there, sounds like it was equally great last night for the woman’s game. meah needs to sit and Morgan needs to take a majority of those minutes, then trim to rotation down to 8ish guys. St. Mary’s looks pretty damn good, very physical and offense is both efficient and they have 3-4 guys that can shoot it. Shorten the rotation and I think we can win some of these type of games in the Big ten. Do we give Janowski a look to provide some bench shooting?

Essegian and Griffiths are gonna have to find their strokes from deep or the defensive efforts and improved rebounding aren’t gonna matter in the long run

Morgan get hurt tonight? Felt like he wasn’t in at all in the second half?

Going to be a long Big Ten season I fear….gotta shorten that rotation in a hurry I think

Took my 2 oldest to there first husker game today and the environment was a lot of fun for them, really got into the second half defensive chants when we were trying to will some stops for the skers. Bummed we didn’t get to see prince in a skers uniform today but seeing 14 3s go through the net somewhat made up for it. Foot speed on the perimeter is going to be a problem again this year unfortunately but post play looks to be improved over last year, they just refused to throw it into the post for most of the first half. Bozan is gonna be a good one once she figures out the defensive side of the ball, very skilled, good hands, and looks to be all of 6’4” to me. Rimdal looks like a pretty good option to help fill Shelly’s shoes too. Everyone stays healthy and we get the right draws 20+ wins and a chance at a sweet 16 seem in play.

Yup, has a low post game and a mid post game. If he fixes his three point stroke I could see us running the offense through him when he’s on the court. Then let’s just hope he stays in front of his guy on defense for the most part and grabs the rebounds a 6’9” guy should

Unless something changes this summer I don’t think we should be to enamored by the thought of Berke being a plus defender

Feels like our athleticism will be improved from last year?

I wonder if brazile went back to Arkansas because we were no longer recruiting him or if that was the plan all along from his camp. also no idea what the basketball program has for NIL but from the guys we have gotten or Atleast gotten on campus for visits it has to be a healthy amount.

The length we could have on defense with him and Morgan in the front court and GG at the 3 would be crazy. id be kinda shocked if a bigger school doesn’t jump in though. Sounds like he was expected to stay in the draft ?

You guys seem to be forgetting we may have gotten a program changing player in Britt prince, still need some depth in the post but the last 2 classes seemed pretty good from my point of view

Illinois although replacing basically everyone has had a good offseason

I would guess they still add a 6’3” plus player as depth. It just won’t be the caliber of player we hoped for.

Have things changed where players not from the United States can directly receive NIL?

Um ya, 6’10 guy with as much offensive skill as any 4 we have had since Copeland. Really rounds out the overall roster with him either being the starting 4 or being one of the first guys off the bench.
