Like others have said, competition. But I wouldn't be shocked if they look at a guy or two that didn't workout at their previous stop after one year similar to CJ Wilcher. No clue on who that would include, but a 3 year guy that can develop over those 3 years makes sense. 

I love CJ and appreciate him so much. 
 
But I'm not sure CJ could guard me - so I highly doubt we'll be seeing him play for Pitino. 

Just saw the same on another board. Heavy Wisconsin lean. Wonder if Kyle follows him too. 

Will be shocked if he does not end up in Madison with Chucky.

I expected CJ to depart.  He is a good man and worked hard while at Nebraska.  I wish him nothing but the best.  He helped turn our culture around!
That said, every time he put the ball on the floor, attempting to drive to the basket, gave me a near death experience.   
 
Again, thank you for being a Husker CJ.

Oh come on. He had a great January then reverted back to his inconsistent shooting the final six weeks. When he’s hot you can put up with his poor defense and dribbling. When he’s not he’s a major liability.
 
I’d much rather have a more well rounded and consistent player, even if his overall 3P% is lower.

He could shoot it from deep and get to the bucket as a freshman without having the ball in his hands much.  And we are complaining about his defense and that he was hunched over when he ran….

Ulis if he has to battle Perkins again at PG for minutes
 

 
 

I don’t know man. The coaches voted him second team all-league. Led the team in assists and steals and he was their only guard who could get into the lane consistently and create. Nebraska has already reached out to him.  

Feels like Blaise hurts the least of the 3 transfers so far.  Good rebounder and defender but just lost a year of develop offensively. 

Do we see a big second year jump from diop? Skill certainly seems to be there, needs to hit the weight room hard and put on a good 15 pounds 
 

Dalton Knecht transferred from Northern Colorato and became a first team AP All American at Tennessee.
 
Knecht at Northern Colorado, 2023:  20.2 ppg, 7.2 rpg, 1.8 apg, 0.8 spg, 0.6 bpg, 38.1 3P%, 47.9 FG%, 77.1 FT%
Thomas at Northern Colorado, 2024:19.7 ppg, 9.8 rpg, 4.2 apg, 1.7 spg, 0.9 bpg, 33.0 3P%, 47.2 FG%, 86.8 FT%

A lot of people on this board are over analyzing one loss to a red-hot Texas A&M team.

I fully expect (and expected) to lose Keita, CJ, and Lloyd. 
 
I think anyone in here starting to downplay Rice's potential is just sour grapes. Kid had loads of potential.

Final Stats (PDF) Photo Gallery Nebraska Quotes Oregon State Quotes Corvallis, Ore. - Jaz Shelley finished with 10 points, six rebounds and seven assists in her final game as a Husker, but No. 6 seed Nebraska dropped a 61-51 defensive struggle to No. 3 seed Oregon State in the second round of the the NCAA Women's Basketball Tournament at Gill Coliseum Sunday. 
Nebraska finished its season with a 23-12 overall record that included an 11-7 Big Ten mark and a runner-up finish at the 2024 TIAA Big Ten Tournament. AP No. 12 Oregon State improved to 26-7 overall and advanced to the NCAA Sweet Sixteen next week in Albany, N.Y. Oregon State's defense held Nebraska to just 31.3 percent (21-67) shooting, including just 4-of-20 threes. At one point, the Huskers were 1-for-15 from long range. NU matched the Beavers on the boards at 36 and won the turnover battle, 15-10. OSU managed to hit 40.7 percent (22-54) from the field, including 10-of-33 threes (.303), while going 7-for-10 at the free throw line. Nebraska expects to return full-time starters Markowski and Potts along with part-time starters Kendall Moriarty, Nissley and Hake next season.  Kendall Coley and Jessica Petrie are also expected to return along with redshirt junior Allison Weidner, who was a starter for the Huskers in 2021-22 and 2022-23 before suffering a pair of knee injuries. Nebraska will also welcome two-time Nebraska High School Player of the Year Britt Prince and Illinois high school star Amiah Hargrove.

I don't think he'll be in red next year. 

Robin has already said he expects Frager to redshirt next year. Rice would have been a consistent role player next year. 

YA no way Frager is better than rice

Hot take as I would be shocked( or things are going very poorly) if frager is a back end of the rotation guy as a freshman. 
 
I also thought from the minutes he got in close games that rice would be a dude for us in coming years though

Frankie’s Instagram post that started some buzz in Lincoln, Omaha and Madison included himself, Chucky and William Kyle. Note that it did not include Dotzler (and there are plenty of photos out there of the four of them). FWIW……

This is speculation on my part, but I’d bet money on it ( 10 bucks anyway 😀 ).  Rice lead our team in scoring on the summer trip right?  And I have very little doubt that he did his share of damage in practice from the get go as well.  These young men rarely lack confidence and they think they should be playing.  By and large, he didn’t play.  You don’t think he thought he was better than so and so ?  There you have it, he ain’t sticking around to get the shaft again.  Right or wrong ( in Rice’s thinking ), that’s my strong hunch of his thought process.
