  1. Miles was already looking for junior college guards and he was looking at ET when the Huskers had one available scholarship for the 2016-17 season. When White announced he was leaving the Huskers they pulled the trigger. So, not as last minute as we may have supposed. http://journalstar.com/sports/huskers/mens-basketball/nu-hoops-recruiting-taylor-on-radar-before-loss-of-white/article_ab16844f-1418-5ec1-a168-0f7bc0c7a754.html From the article: Miles and his staff, particularly assistant coach Jim Molinari, had already been looking for junior college guards when the Huskers had one available scholarship for the 2016-17 season. Taylor was on their radar. And when White announced he was transferring, leaving the Huskers with two vacant scholarships? “Then we said it’s a no-brainer,” Miles said.
  2. It is obvious that some here think Evan is a stretch. Whether he turns out to be, only time will tell. However, I note the media selected Evan to the Southern Conference All Freshman team after his year there. http://www.soconsports.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=4000&ATCLID=209920690 He must have been doing something right. Given Miles eye for talent, I trust Evan is a good pick-up this late in the game.
  3. Story about the manufacturing of the steel sculpture: http://www.omaha.com/metro/steel-sculpture-destined-for-lincoln-s-arena-takes-shape-piece/article_c8155a60-1435-5759-9138-090732afe82c.html Warning: Although Auroran used the correct link, the WH takes you to their main page. Go to the bottom to click on the link. O Better yet, use the below link, as the WH appears to have fixed it. http://www.omaha.com/news/metro/steel-sculpture-destined-for-lincoln-s-arena-takes-shape-piece/article_c8155a60-1435-5759-9138-090732afe82c.html
  4. What? We did not get him?
  5. Yes, I am sure someone can explain! Yet, the name does not start with tr. Dimes is the man to explain.
  6. Here are a couple of unprotected articles on this: http://fittish.deadspin.com/the-legal-fight-between-nike-and-boris-berian-is-heatin-1780478349 http://www.sportingnews.com/athletics/news/boris-berian-nike-lawsuit-hoka-one-one-middle-distance/xcdsrxczqdx0120r9b0qxmiq8
  7. Expand please I must be too dumb. Season not over? As in playing another sport?Just used the line that is used when we were discussing transfers in the other thread. Nothing but a joke that appears it was bad. Lol...I was wondering if there was a 7 foot tall baseball player on the Huskers team that might make the jump to basketball. We've had huskers football players. Have we ever had a husker Baseball player on the team? My first college rommate, Adrian Fialla, was a catcher and a linebacker in the later 60's. Coach Erstead played a little baseball and was the punter on the 94 team. Those are the 2 that immediately come to my mind. yes...but when did they play basketball. We have had Football players transition to Basketball...and looking and yours...we have had football/Baseball crossovers. I was talking Baseball to Basketball. Well I screwed up your question with the wrong answer...just like the following interesting cross over but I can't find going to basketball in my brain. I see Mark Mauer played quarterback in the early 80's and used his senior year, after football eligibility was used up, to play catcher in 1982. No basketball help.

  9. It is not us v. cu. ...if it was...we are in. The reality is it is us v. the field. Any time a team can qualify that otherwise, would not, but for their winning a tournament,..they could take one spot from the at large field. creighton might still get in... X never had a chance. Although, if the jays get in and NU does not, some members needs to quit the committee.
  10. Good investment for 1-2 years? The title made me spend the last hour listening to one of my favorite albums! l An all time album for sure! Now, if you just would use your old avatar or somebody like her. I'd be out of my brain.
  11. I am not sure where to put this, as it is off topic. However, it is a moving, heartwarming, sad and thought provoking article in today's WH. It is about the Papillion-La Vista South captain of their soccer team, Adam Dejka, who has"selective mutism". Something I have never heard of. It is well worth the read. I know some here have a hard time with Dirk's writing. However, I think he did a great job with this kid and his issue. http://dataomaha.com/bigstory/story/81/sports/breaking-the-sound-barrier
  12. Yep. I am not feeling good about it. Would love to have a do-over of the 9th inning of the Iowa-Ohio State game. Well you get your wish; as it starts in a few minutes. Hard to root for bucki but I guess I will. God, we even need to root for creighton...ugh!

  14. I get it. But we should be able to get to 13 every year and then lose some in transfers.I don't have a lot of angst about it. But it is May so what else are we going to talk about What else to talk about...the streaking red hot baseball team.
  15. Just got home from the game. Wonderful day, atmosphere, pitching, etc. for senior day. This was the most dominant pitching series I recall in quite some time. Several good weekends in a row. Great time to get hot. Wednesday 1P.M. start on MSU v NU. Glad I am now retired; some of you need to take some well deserved vacation this week. GBR
  16. Link?He probably heard it live on the radio rather than on-line.Oh, you meant the other Link. So, like, I hope not. Sorry, but I just hope someone else. Like someone actually good or something. Wait so was something more said in the live radio version versus an edited interview? Is that what's being said here? I listened to the posted interview and Jordy's coach was talking about some of the stiff conception he's faced and he mentions that he's gone up against a 7 footer in practice every day, a German kid. And so is there another version of the interview where the coach hints that we are after him? Because I didn't hear that at all. I sure hope he was talking about stiff competition; because I do not think coach's conception descriptions would go over well in Lincoln; much less the stiff action.
  17. How like this!! Question? How much Longer till we reach 40m Pages? Hey, I'm trying to do my part!!! I know this is not kosher but,hey, I had all my top teeth pulled, fit with an immediate denture, which I am not certain is exactly right, and it hurts like hell and they gave me Percocet (which I have never taken before) as a pain killer so..... please cut me some slack (0r not)!!!! --- Jim Boy! I thought ConkTrifecta3 was working hard to get his post count up until I saw this string.
  18. I have a hard time taking manners and compliment opinions from Doug Gottlieb.
  19. What the hell's a Clamato? Sounds like an STD. If you've never had Clamato, you've never experienced life. On the positive side you've never had a burning sensation when you pee, either.... OMG! You never knew Sally Klaptrap, did you? She can make you feel the same way, without Clamato juice.
  20. I opened this thread; just like I did the Morrow and McVeigh threads....and I hope/believe this will have the same result! P.S. Don't bring up all those worthless threads I may have started for guys that did not see the worth of Lincoln.
  21. I thought Minnesota_Husker had a pretty good outcome, until I saw the, as always, red kool-aid version by Norm. Now I want what Norm is having.
  22. OMG! Your wife makes you breakfast! Lucky man.
  23. Only when they're kissing. Maybe that explains what happened in grade school when that girl told me she was showing me how to French kiss.
  24. Gosh, now that I am retired, I'll make sure to set the alarm extra early! And make sure not to drink wine the night before. Or I could just find out when I wake up and get to this site; that's the answer.
