I'm guessing he'll be back in the college game in three years' time.

Played a lot of golf with Carl Hubbell's son if that means anything. Fun dude.

I'm optimistic this will work out well.

They serve beer at the bouts. I'm guessing you might find Norm there.

I've been to a couple of No Coast Derby Girls bouts. Lots of fun!

I still don't like the different color for the area inside the three-point line, but this is the best I've seen so far with that design. How's that for a backhanded compliment?

No, but some people (here and certainly elsewhere) take the fact that he's passed his SAT as meaning he's good to go and are probably celebrating the fact he'll be here and practicing with the team soon.

Not everybody out there in the "burst" read the title of this thread, or really understands what it means to be "eligible".

Probably that he's been through the clearinghouse and is good to go, which is not yet the case.

Quote fail. "Always in motion the future is."

If it were only about facilities, I suspect many of them would do just that. Unfortunately, a big part of it is WHERE the facilities are located. And for many of these guys, this is still thought to be an outpost in the middle of nowhere, a long way from home. And with a culture way different than home. It takes a lot of selling. It will always be difficult, just like it is in football. Still, I like our chances to sign higher levels of recruits than in the past 10-15 years. Things are looking up, but patience will still be required. Why can KU basketball bring in the recruits they do (or KSU for that matter) when they're in the same place geographically as Nebraska's football team? KU basketball has all the geographical disadvantages NU football does, yet I've yet to hear a Jayhawk complain about how hard it is to get kids to play there (like we hear annually for NU football).

The Package. I like that!

Concur.

Give 'em hell, Doc!

I haven't watched a regular season NBA game in some time. I've caught a bit of the playoffs this year, though. Mostly to cheer against the Heat. Sort of like when I cheered against the Bulls in the 90's.

Well, he won the tip.

And a little bit from the Bottle Rockets never did anybody any harm. Well, except for the fact you can't find their studio recordings on youtube...just concert footage that is rarely of any good quality.

Really? We've made it this far in (basically) a thread about country music and no one has brought up the Kentucky Headhunters. What kind of schlubs are you?

This is probably more accurate.

It'll be a while, so I'm not sure I'll remember. I'll do what I can!

Page will be in Marysville for a game next season...it's just over an hour's drive from Lincoln. Will I see some Husker red?

Lanie skipped a grade (somehow) so she could play in high school with her sister. At least that's how the story goes around these parts.

In 20 years from now, nobody will care who we opened up the PBA with. Just like the vast majority of people can't tell you who we opened up Devaney with. I think this is a great opening game as they were the hottest team in the country last year and media darlings. Exactly. The only time our opening opponent will matter is when they close the barn down and we reflect on the games that ended up being the arena's bookends.

I still don't see how cutting the shot clock would help. Don't let the defense get away with as much as it does and things will work themselves out.

I agree about the football thing. As we're no longer playing in the Devaney Center, the current forum name sounds more like a reference to football.
