Dead Dog Alley

Hopefully before Sack Henry retires, Can Mack ends up in the same league, because the world has forever been waiting for the Sack vs. Can matchup.

He's 3 inches shorter than Cookie Miller. I hope he doesn't go anyplace where Doug Gottlieb calls games or he might get labelled a punk. I remember watching his dad, who was an outstanding player, play a couple times at GW. I made a point of it since he was 5'4" and when he was a junior had a 7'1" teammate - not quite Muggsy and Manute, but close. (Ironically, they lost in the NCAA tournament that year to Oklahoma State and Doug Gottlieb. Maybe that's where Gottlieb's hatred of short people began.)

Those reviewed calls are absolutely consistent, when Nebraska is playing. If it's a 50/50 judgment call, then 90% of the time it will go against Nebraska.

This loss means the second 20-loss season in a row. These two seasons being the only 20 loss seasons in program history.

If so, that would rank the first recruiting class as a complete disaster.

I feel terrible for all of the naive young Kansas fans, who accidentally leave the Safe Search off when they google "Grady Dick".

You would think that Iowa is maxing out in that area, but if you look around you realize they really could step up their game...

Everyone should want Thor back, if only for the chance that Thor would make the winning play in Nebraska's first ever NCAA Tournament win, Kent's radio call would rank among the all time great moments in sports broadcasting.

No score prediction, but we better get Iowa while we can, before their recruiting class for next year comes on board.

It's amazing how Young for Rutgers looks just like his dad, except he looks about 9 inches shorter. Phi Slamma Jamma in miniature. Maybe the Dream has a kid that's 6'3", Mr. Mean has a kid that's 6'2", and the Glide has a kid that's 6'0". Would be interesting. I bet if Benny had a kid that was 5'9" he'd be winning dunk contests at that height.

If Lat continues to shoot over 80% and scores 40 every game, they'll probably be stuck in Indiana the whole month of March.

Since Lakes was eligible and played, his fourth year (senior year) was this year. As with the other seniors who opt to come back, he should not count against the limit next year.

If Banton could get up to 220 and become a legit 30-33% shooter from 3, he would end up making, what, 5-10 times as much money the next 10 years than he otherwise will? That seems like it should be motivation.

You must have a different definition of decent than I do.

Is this what this board has degenerated to??? People speaking positively of former Creighton players??? Although I'm sure your description of Latrell Wrightsell Sr. is correct; from what I remember he was no Grant Gibbs. And he did play in the single greatest college basketball game of all time.

Nebraska is 4-40 in the last 44 regular season Big Ten conference games with Doc Sadler on the staff. All 4 of those wins were pretty big upsets.

I think that might be one of Kelly Pfeiffer's hobbies.

Andre compares favorably with Mikki Moore, in fact he's 25 lbs bigger than Mikki was as a freshman and has had a better freshman year. (Mikki flashed some talent his freshman year in the Kansas game but rarely played.) Keita, I would say, compares favorably to Derrick Chandler. And they'll be in the same class. But they're not the Royce White - Georges Niang type of players, so it's a bit of a surprise.

I always thought that Iowa chose their school colors right after the first toilet was introduced in the state. Someone looked inside and thought, hey, that combination works.

Wrist injury?

I've seen butterflies hit people harder than Andre on that "foul" on the layup.

Anyone that would hire this fucking Kelly Pfieffer is serious about being crooked. I'm looking at you, Big Ten.

That charge was the worst fucking call I've ever seen. And the Big Ten Network Color douche backs up the worthless fucking refs. Fuck this conference.

I'm sure his mother loved him as a baby, and maybe there are positive attributes we can't see, but all of the evidence available suggests that Kelly Pfeiffer is a totally incompetent, vindictive, awful human being.

Following is my extensively detailed, profound in-depth analysis of what we could expect if Xavier Johnson shows up in Lincoln: We'd be good.
