Here’s him going for 25/12/12/6 Stl playing point center this season.  
 
I’ll never be ok.  
 

Hausen is a straight up 3pt specialist.  He’d be a great threat off the bench with enough size at 6’4”.  
 
He made 61 threes last year at 17min a game at 38%. 
 
KT made 76 threes at 26min a game at 37%. 
 
So to say Hausen is a gunner is an understatement.  He’s gotta love the green light/system KT put on film (not nearly the bag but H is probably as good of a shooter at high volume, which is to say elite).

We don't need to sell our soul or completely change course, but we do need to get more athletic to successfully compete on an ongoing basis.   It's not an all or nothing thing.

This. And I'm glad we're not selling our soul to just go get the most athletic guys out there just to try and beat 2024 Texas A&M that shot unbelievable from 3 and would have beaten almost anyone on that night. We have to continue doing the model that has won us Big Ten games over the last 14 months, which is smart, hard-working, unselfish, experienced dudes who can shoot and will give max effort on defense. You can't win a tournament game if you can't get to the tournament. 
 
After the A&M game, some fans seem to think we should be getting athletic freaks and that those same players will also be great shooters and super effective in Fred's 5-out offense and will also have the discipline, work ethic and attitude of a Sam Griesel/Sam Hoiberg. Newsflash: if you are all of those things you are in the NBA or getting offered by UConn/North Carolina/Kansas/Duke. 

He’s about 25lbs lighter than Mast which makes a pretty big difference defensively in the post, but he could also stretch a 5 on the other end and likely score more than he gives up if he plays the 5.  But he screams 4 to me.  
 
I’m almost positive Morgan is coming here to play the 5.  

Serviceable ball handler and will dunk on people too.  He’ll benefit massively from our system on offense.

All the length across the board and two true pgs is kinda crazy 

Bonafide NBA talent.  
 
Transfer quality is unreal so far.  
 
Rollie 6’4”
BW 6’7”
GG 6’8”
JG 6’7”
Morgan/Mast/?? 6’10”
 
Scary.

Last two seasons Worster has averaged 5+ assists to <2 TO. 
 
That’s a very big deal.  
 
If he can get his 3pt shot above 30% it sure would be nice.  But he gets to the rim really well in P&R and is a deadly passer.  Do-it-all player everywhere else.  5rbs a game from your PG adds up and helps the team a ton in offensive transition. 
 
Great get.  
 
Put 4 other shooters on the court with this kid and it really is pick your poison.

The first thought I had when I saw Griffiths play against us was he’s going to the league.  Makes sense his accolades were that high.  Enormous ceiling.  
 
Worster looks like a nice big body PG who can really pass well and is elite in P&R (not a shooter).  
 
Both would be phenomenal, but GG is the one I’m most excited about of all the possible ones we’re in on.  Crazy skill and trigger for 6’8”.  He would start at the 3 and be a problem.  

Oh damn he likes defense!
 
Yes.  

We have 6 more spots to fill. But if you're making this type of comparison, Keisei wasn't a PG so it's more like allick/Boogie/lawrence with worster/morgan/uhlis

Say what you will about recruiting rankings, but Griffiths was a top 40 recruit by Rivals, by ESPN, by 247 Sports and by ON3. He played one season of college basketball and has three years remaining and is a 6-8 shooter. If Fred helps this kind find his stroke (which he will)...

Happy to announce that despite various openings and opportunities out there that Husker Hoops Central will remain at Nebraska for its 20th season.
Just got this puppy today.
 

 
 

So pumped with this get.  Great player who can dunk on you or stretch the court.  He does a whole lot at 6’10” 250. 
 
Hopefully Mast can get healthy because we might not need another big between Mast/Morgan/Gary.  Really, really good and diverse rotation there.  

Now get a 6’7” athletic wing who can knock down threes and a PG who is at least a serviceable backup and we’re scary.
