Reads to me like we will be going with the Northwestern model of employing our coach for a while

You would think we could land a guy or two who does not want to play for Mac D.

The only reason Tonje ended up at Wisconsin was because Chucky got poached. Tonje had actually committed to New Mexico before Wisconsin poached him.

TBH after looking back after reading "Bottom 1/4th of the league" and seeing that we won 9 conference games 3 years ago and knowing how close we were in games this season I'm actually more encouraged.

The timing of this tournament for building next year's roster is the one downside to this event. Not sure about other teams but for Nebraska it should have almost zero effect. Connor, Berke, and Gavin are the only scholarship guys active next season that might leave between now and then. We've known for 9+ months we've needed to recruit a ton of guys. As a season ticket holder I don't have to buy a home ticket and potentially see this team fold again at home. Steve has developed this soft target schtick for Nebraska Basketball being a 'dream job' over the years because it 'has no expectations' which landed pretty well. The problem is that when you roll that out these days it's almost comically blind to the fact that the football team can't get out of its own way to make a bowl game.

Fran was always pretty good at finding viable B1G post players from the 3-4 star range

I'm going to put my money on Jeffery Grace

Recruit him now for the transfer portal later

Feel like me making 100 cracks about this on Twitter has potentially paid off

The numbers make him look like a 6'2" Frankie Fidler as he can get to the line, seems like he can pass, and your guess is as good as mine if his 3pt shot is going in.

Ejecting Fran for basically nothing last night

We had a very deep bench, it's just that the options weren't very good. If they guys redshirting were better options, they wouldn't have redshirted.
