That Moon kid was mentioned, too.

I would love to schedule home and home with Wichita State. Wouldn't mind setting up an ongoing series with them.
What about South Dakota State? Their RPI last year was top 64.
they lose the best player they've probably ever had in Wolters. I don't expect them to be at that level next year.
-
Only 10 more to go.Jeez, are we TRYING to schedule the entire sweet 16? Only 11 more to go...
Michigan
Michigan State
Indiana
Ohio State
Miami
FGCU
We don't play Michigan St. at home this year.
-
Don't think they'll be ranked. They were a 15 seed for a reason and they lose their top scorer and coach. I'll be pumped because it's a new season, new players and stoked for the new building, not because of the opponent.
-
If it's a school with a significant name as nearly everyone has been alluding to, that leaves Clemson, Virginia Tech, Wake Forest, Xavier, St. Joseph's, Temple, FGCU, Boston College, Virginia, Georgia TEch, Cincy, Pitt, Providence, DePaul, Rutgers, Seton Hall, South Florida, St. Johns, Syracuse, ASU, Cal, Oregon st., USC, Utah, Wash, WSU, Memphis, BYU, St. Mary's or UNO.
I was 100% joking when I included them on the list...

Miles needs to find someone to fill this last scholarship, even if it is for one year. I am going to be upset if Menke is on scholarship for a second straight year when those 2 years wasted on Menke could have been given to a juco guy for 2 years.
Why?
our 3 bigs are going to have a combined 5 min of d1 experience.
That doesn't mean you have to take a guy though. You only take him if he can help the program. You get in trouble when you start handing out 'ships just to have them all filled. I'd rather reward a guy like Peltz or Tyrance or Menke for a year than take a guy just because you still have an open scholarship. these are valuable commodities, can't be casual with them.

You're mad at a guy for going home when he has an opportunity? In that profession, those opportunities don't come very often, you gotta take that opportunity when it comes. I'll never fault a guy for going home if that was the real reason he went.
-
Planning in terms of what? I'd almost guarantee the architects already have the plans drawn up for what the addition will be. It'd just be a matter of how long will they wait before they do it.
-
If the next two seasons go as I think Miles expects, there will be discussion about filling that in. We're not really to the point of this being a significant discussion.

I haven't seen enough film on him to know if he is a stud or not, but my initial reaction would be that I would rather Nebraska go after a Center, so that Pitchford, Smith, and Rivers can play the PF spot. If the kid has the same kind of skills as Tummala (which would make him too good for Nebraska not to sign him if they can), then I will likely change my tune, but my initial reaction is that Nebraska currently has 3 players that can play the 4-Spot, but no legit contributors for the 5-Spot.
I think that both Pitchford and Smith could do some good things at the 5-Spot, but I think the more natural position for both of them is the 4-Spot. Like Ubel, I think they could manage at the 5-Spot if there is no true Center, but their potential is much greater at the 4-Spot.
I think with Miles' plan for the offense, we're going to see a lot more of two 4's on the floor a lot rather than a true 4 and 5. That also seems to be a trend in CBB in general. A true center who fits what Miles wants to do will be very difficult to find.
-
Yes, i meant block. I'm with you. I've been saying for a while now that make the defenders defend. The thing about the Craft play is that he wasn't even in the play until it was basically over. He slid across the lane, the ball handler had already beaten his defender and started his upward movement and never saw Craft. I agree, I think the rule is to get rid of that undercutting slide.
-
Finally doing something. Gotta think opening up the floor and allowing guards more freedom of movement will only help the Miles motion offense. College basketball needs this real bad.
The block/charge call was also a big deal this last postseason. I don't understand the difference between the current rule and the proposed one the article describes. There's not much difference between starting an upward motion and lifting off the floor. I would like for them to get rid of all "taken" charges where a defender just runs to a spot to get ready to flop backward. Force the defense to actually play defense. Get rid of the flopping backward charges and only call a charge when an offensive player creates/initiates contact by lowering a shoulder or extending an arm.
Well, for instance the charge call in the Ohio St. vs. Iowa St. game would have been a charge. Take away the controversy about whether the heels were in the circle or not, he slid under the ball carrier after he had started his upward motion. That call happens quite a bit.
Video of the call comes in about 20 minutes into the clip.
-
No doubt in my mind Gallegos will start. If he gets more consistent with his shot, he'll be a border line all conference player. Best defender on the team.

Organic movements is a very hipster thing.

I guess my hope is they've tried too hard to give it to a player they don't really want.
If a transfer (1-yr grad or 2-3 yr undergrad) happens that will generally upgrade the talent on the roster in the coming season(s), then that's a positive development. Otherwise, a late add could wind up being more of a crap-shoot than a well-positioned move.
Of course, but I don't see them taking a player just to take a player, at least I hope I don't see that happen.
-
People, groups, companies, etc... rebrand successfully all the time. Heck, HHC's done it twice! Personally, i'd love to see us move out of the dungeon.
It will occur organically, if it happens.
the organic movement is big these days.

Unless the NCAA eliminates the position...
-
Well, we have a Director of Operations. Never been without one. Chin was a Director of player development or something like that and he said the NCAA was going to look at how that role could be filled across the board and was going to wait until that decision was made before moving forward on that.

If we don't add anyone else....seems like a whiff on our part.
Given they have tried so hard to add another I would agree.
I get this thought, but they are adding seven new players to the mix next season. That's a ton as it is. If they don't fill this spot, it's not the end of the world.

Can't see the OWH ever doing that. Maybe the LJS. Maybe. But I think that's outside of that they'd normally do.
