That is great to hear. I've made the point before, but it's sad that we decided to finally put in the work with the local kids, just when the talent pool dried up. Imo, none of the 2024 guys are worth a scholarship.

Definitely getting there. NET is 74.

3-star with offers from Wisky, Iowa and another Nebraska school.

Spot on. We're 315th nationally in 3pt% at .297, yet we take almost 22 a game. FH adjusted his defense to his personnel, he needs to do the same with his offense. Gary is 4th in 3pt attempts, even though he has hit just 22% over his career. He's taken more than twice as many as Sam, who hit 38% last year at NDSU. I love Gary's game otherwise.

Sales up 50% from the last report!

lol

Got em right where we want em!

He played OK his freshman year at Wake, averaging 4.7 ppg in 22 minutes, but only played 19 games so likely injured. Didn't do well his sophomore year, makes me think he never quite bounced back.

The NET's got it closer than KenPom, which still carries over some last year.

I think we'll focus on Scheierman, Kalkbrenner and Nemhard and just hope the other 2 don't go off. Alexander worries me, he's pretty good for an overlooked player.

Hunter Sallis only played 7 minutes in Gonzaga's loss to Baylor last night. Averaging 15 minutes and 4.8 ppg for 5-3 Zags.

It's possible, but they only commit 11.4 fouls a game, 2nd in the country. They also don't draw many though.

So like this? or this?

Yes, I was agreeing. Probably should have gone with 彼が言った事 (what he said)

Analytics sites seem to either favor us by around 5 or give us about a 65% chance of a win.

Maybe more important who was coaching him, Hoiberg, rather than who recruited him?

Not to hijack the thread by talking about basketball, but I think you have to stick with Sam. We all knew going into the season that we'd struggle to score, so why push the pace? We may have lost to Memphis (29 KenPom), but we were competitive. We'll win a few conference games playing like this. And not to be a broken record on this, but wtf is Gary doing shooting 3s? He's a >20% career shooter and he's SECOND ON THE TEAM IN ATTEMPTS. Blame Matt A all you want for the last 4 years, but it's obvious there's no accountability from the head coach.

Watching game for the first time this morning, was struck by how poor our post play was. Tanner Groves is not a great defender and their backup was a former walk-on at Wofford who transferred in this year. Yet both Keita and WB struggled against them.

The article is clickbait. I listened to the interview. Matt A puffs up himself, talks about all of his success recruiting, obviously trying to make himself look good for his agent business. However, I didn’t really find anything he said to be that offensive, other than he didn’t take any responsibility for the worst period in Husker basketball history. On the other hand, the hosts were terrible, sucked up constantly, kept turning conversations turned into football. Drives me crazy when you want to talk basketball, and it turns into a football conversation. Some Matt A comments: —Compares Husker fans to Knicks fans who keep going to games, so tough changes are never made. — “It’s a special place. Nebraska deserves a winner.” — “When it comes to what a winner looks like, Nebraska can check all the boxes.” — His point was that it’s easy to recruit somebody to Nebraska to become a farmer, not a basketball player. Does anyone really disagree with that? — Generally described problems with players whose personal expectations are inflated by the people around them. — Says he has no idea of Nebraska’s expectations for basketball because the history is so weak. “What is off? I don’t think one person can answer that. Everything is set up to be (a middle of the pack Big Ten program.” Hosts never follow up. — “The media can be vicious, and it’s not in Nebraska.” Hosts prove that to be true with sucking up, softball questions and no following up. — Talks about “Nebraska nice,” says most fan are good, a few were vicious on twitter. That’s who he didn’t like, not just the fans in general. — “It’s a tortured fan base that deserves so much more than it has.” — “The leadership that they have is elite (specifically Trev and Green, didn’t mention Hoiberg), and I think they’ll get it right. You have really good people who care about that place.” — Started talking about how much 5 stars are worth, says it takes $4-5 million to put together an elite level basketball program. Host starts talking about Archie Manning and firing Scott Frost. Conversation devolves into more football. My big takeaway was that Matt A thinks the fans don’t demand enough of basketball so they get the product they deserve. “My response would be, they cared enough to have run you off.” And I agree with him. What top-level program would have kept Fred after the 3 worst seasons in history? The big criticism I’d have is that he never explained, “OK, so what exactly is the problem?” Hosts never followed up by asking that.

Hoping for something that doesn't have me reaching for the Pepto. Each buy game has the potential to be the final straw for Fred.

This year is different, everyone is being held accountable, blah, blah, blah ... Gary is a career 18% shooter on 3s. Let that sink in. And yet he took 5 3s last night. He's third on the team in 3pt attempts. He should never launch a 3 again this year, except at the end of the shot clock. How in the world can this team turn it around when the coach is oblivious to what is going on or sees it and refuses to change it?

Always wondered what our problem was. Turned out to be low T.

Seems like Molly Hatchet opened for somebody at Pershing back in the '70s, but maybe I'm not remembering that quite right.

Here's something to dispel the usual gloom and doom: We're No. 9 in RPI!!!!!!! https://www.warrennolan.com/basketball/2023/rpi-live
