I don't think Hunter Sallis fits this Husker team at all, and that's not a knock on Sallis. He'd have the same issues here at NU that he was having at Gonzaga. We play a pretty strict system defensively (not his strength) and we play a pretty heavy read and react, principled motion on offense (also not his strength). Hunter belongs in more of an open system where he can use his instincts and play free.

I have heard people say that what this team is missing is a James Palmer or Terran Petteway... Which I kind of agree with - but the thing is - it's literally on the roster. That could easily be Brice Williams. He's got the length, athleticism, 3-Level scoring ability, etc... This staff needs to figure out Brice Williams. He is not lazy, he is not uninspired or unemotional, as people have said - the dude clearly cares and is giving it his all. It seems to me to be more of a confidence issue. They've gotta figure out a way to get him confident and recognize that he could be a dude. This guy has the tools to score ~18-20 a game or so. If they can figure out a way to unlock Brice from ear to ear, that will unlock this season in my opinion.

Are we 100% sure Marcus Glock is not a D1 guy? 6’4”, decent athlete, lefty, has gotten a lot stronger. But most importantly, just a pure sniper. Has some limitations athletically as a D1 guy for sure… but…. Idk man… @Jacob Padilla

I fucking hate this defense so much. If a guy is going off - there is ZERO adjustment to be made. They’re still gonna over help, over rotate, double the post, etc… just so stupid. JUST GUARD NORMAL. Stop the junk crap. #11 is going off - he should be no help. -

I don’t know if I have ever seen a team with more variance in their performances than this team. It’s remarkable. Obviously there’s the home and away element but that doesn’t entirely answer everything. What it screams is a lack of general athleticism and/or lack of size/length. Those things make up for energy/effort/crowd. I wouldn’t stray too far away from what we’re doing X’s and O’s, talent eval wise, but we certainly have to get a little better athlete at certain positions.

Nebraska (15-5) vs. Maryland (12-8) Game Thread
basketballjones replied to Bugeaters1's topic in The Haymarket Hardwood
Was easily the most frustrating part of the game. We played right into their hands. Broke it, then stopped everything to try to run our offense. We should have been in break and attack mode the entire time. They would have been out of it after 3 possessions if we did. -

Soft team, physically and mentally, unless literally everything is going well for them and the crowd is for them. -
