It really begs the question….. ah screw it you get it by now.

Agree with all of this, but I do want to say that Rollie was an absolutely phenomenal, phenomenal team and individual defender.

The question that will be eating up generations of Husker fans regarding the 2024-2025 Nebraska Cornhuskers: "What if Cale Jacobsen had been playing 20-36mpg all season?"

Woah woah woah I got murdered around here for suggesting this for other foreign players a while back. Tread lightly!

This is not a bad pickup

Stop the count.

I see everyone is taking a clearly joking post very seriously.

Well, clearly he *can. *sample size, 1

I think there's something there with Griffiths. I believe the issue is between the ears, and with some time and sticking to it he could be useful.

So were 3/4 of the teams we lost to this year without St. Jacobsen.

Ben McCollum will adapt to whatever he feels he needs to do to win basketball games. @Norm Peterson - You're smarter than me and better at these things - propose a friendly wager related to McCollum's Iowa success and I'm in.

I like him... but also have a rule against guys who's last names are really easy to make fun of if they play bad. "A lack-Luster performance." I shoulda followed this with Worster but didn't.

The Tim Miles Coaching Tree knows no limits.

I’d be curious to see what kinda looks a guy like this gets. Athletic limitations, but can absolutely stroke it. I wonder how much more or less he’d compare athletically to a Tominaga?

This is awesome. I know there’s the saying that, “nice guys finish last…” But it couldn’t be anymore wrong in this case. Coach Farokhmanesh is one of the best people out there. Just a nice human, but absolutely has that killer instinct. Hopefully people learn how to spell his name correctly.

This is amazing he is back but we absolutely have to find someone in the portal who can rebound and protect the rim. Very clear delineation between Mast's good games and Mast's bad games two years ago.

Hmmm. I thought these types of programs made absolute killings in their non-con playing p5 teams.

What’s the reason for this? All the replies seem to think it’s something that is just the start. Thoughts?

So this whole Howard thing has been confusing from the start. I too have heard that he rubbed people the wrong way when he got here because he was a bit taken back by, let's call it, the laid-back-ness of the program. I also know that the defense we began playing was the defense that he brought with him. I went rounds with somebody on here that he was more of the defensive coordinator because it was his system (which is correct), but it turned out I was definitely wrong and that NL was the "defensive coordinator." But it was clearly Howard's system (match-up zone, sideline-baseline, trap baseline, reverse x-outs on backside) he was running/learned at his last stop. Wonder if that caused some riffs. He's also an in-demand guy if he's going with a dude like Will Wade to NC State. But then again he stuck around for 3 seasons - so who knows.

If only there was a way to properly verify people on Twitter........ someone shoulda came up with that idea.

@aphilso1 Hoiberg's brilliance knows no bounds. Much like China, his plans are measured in 6 years of eligibility.

For what it's worth, I believe that's just part of the game since its inception. To make the game more palatable to the average fan, different things need to be emphasized and adapted.
