I loved this tournament, but if Nebraska wasn’t in that final yesterday there would have been 200 people in the stands watching.

Blue and Lawrence this week would not be shocking at all.

Any elite portal transfers out there watching feel free to come on down

I’m not crying at Brice and Juwan crying. Definitely not crying.

You know what would be really cool? If the winner of this game for some sort of prize for winning it, like money or something.

This team has taken years off my life for sure

I don’t know what’s more surprising, the fact that DJ gets this championship game, or the fact that Kelly Pfeiffer isn’t with him.

Since when has that mattered when it’s our guys making the contact?

I’m old enough to remember when an inadvertent elbow by Brice Williams was a F1

basketball IQ is an underrated skill.

Yeah that was an odd sequence. We could hold for last shot but Essegian tries to drive into traffic and turns it over with 9 seconds left….not smart

Are we the only team that has moving screens called on us? For the life of me I can’t remember our opponent ever committing a moving screen. We seem to have at least 1 every game.

In watching Sandfort’s interview with Mike Sautter, he gives some hints that -for better or worse- we’ve told Pryce we plan to increase his role from what he did at Iowa and he will be a playmaker/off the dribble and not just a catch and shoot guy. I know how most feel about that, but if he can elevate to his brother’s junior and senior year play then that’s a pretty good portal add. However he would need a lot of solid pieces around him. The wildcards that we don’t know about are the three redshirts. Where we are not active in the portal might give some clues. If we aren’t trying for a point guard, maybe they see something in a combination of Janowski and Lawrence that we wouldn’t be able to do any better with our $ in the portal… If we aren’t trying for a 6-8 Juwan replacement, could it be Frager and/or Bolis are already next in line? The players call Frager a “man child”. Fred says he’s in the gym shooting constantly. If he has improved dramatically from the intrasquad scrimmage, when he already looked good for his age, maybe they’re already counting on production from him. Bolis I have no idea what’s there. I don’t expect anything from him in his career, but maybe I’m wrong. Obviously we should be trying to get the best possible talent we can, but if we have limited money to spend and we seemingly leave a position “open” don’t forget we sat 3 guys all year and trained them for replacing these outgoing players.

I see this topic on Husker football message boards all the time, and who knows it might be another 30 years before we play for a postseason banner again. So, what’s on your menu for the big Nebraska Men’s Basketball game tonight? Grilling? Smoking? Pizza? Soup? A glass of Crown?

The only program to win an NIT and Crown championship trophy, and they want to say we’re the worst MBB program of all time?
