  1. Something we've done 4 times from 1980-2018.
  2. This is a completely different presser if the score was 60-61. Yikes.
  3. ESPN's take on "Reverse Hot Seat": http://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/25930674/reverse-hot-seat-why-embattled-coaches-stay Reverse hot seat -- why these embattled coaches should stay Tim Miles, Nebraska Cornhuskers (110-108 in seventh season) What his detractors would say: He has gone from the fun coach who used to tweet at halftime to the coach whose team has experienced high turnover and won more than 20 games only once. Nebraska, which has reached the NCAA tournament only once under Miles, has lost seven in a row. Plus, Nebraska can shred the final year of his deal by paying him a $2.5 million buyout this offseason. The school would owe Miles nearly $4 million total if it made the move after next season. Why his firing would be unjust: Nebraska has opened a great arena and practice facility within the past five years. The school has invested millions to rebrand itself as a viable basketball program. That's not easy to do for a program that's never won an NCAA tournament game. Firing Miles could erase the momentum the program has built during his time in Lincoln.
  4. WE'RE NUMBER 12! WE'RE NUMBER 12! WE'RE NUMBER 12!
  5. This would be such a Nebraska way to lose...
  6. If only the ball knew how good Roby is...
  7. Per @hhcmatt: Nebraska 69 - Minnesota 63
  8. Hopefully good Isaiah and good Tom can join in. Let's hope so, because Good Grief seems to have been playing all of the games in 2019.
  9. This team has to be playing a joke on us, right?
  10. This is pretty cool. (Open page to view all versions of Herbie)
  11. And yet we'd still buy tickets to go to the first round If that ever did happen, then hopefully we'd be the "can you believe that they let that Nebraska team in...and they actually won a game?"
  12. Oklahoma finished the season 2-8 and had a losing conference record but had an RPI of 23.
  13. Aaaaand boom goes the dynamite.
  14. Wow! Must've been some heavy traffic in the woods trying to get to the game!
  15. Is that ticket sales or actual attendance?
  16. It makes you wonder what's really going behind the scenes. Behind Door #1: Moos has full confidence in Miles and is expressing his support. Behind Door #2: Moos is blowing steam and is planning on hiring someone on his desk drawer coaches list. He just needs to kill time and get through the rest of the season. Behind Door #3: Moos has already contacted coaches on his list and isn't finding any interest, so he's trying to hedge his bets and keep Miles in good standing should Moos need to wait to find a new coach.
  17. And there you have it. Penn State defeats Michigan. Penn State has played one fewer game than we have and we are now only half a game away from sharing last place in the Big Ten.
  18. It seems that previously fired coaches can still be valuable to other schools: https://sports.yahoo.com/forde-minutes-8-college-hoops-coaches-turned-around-getting-axe-215642247.html
  19. It's very early, but Penn State is up 27-20 over Michigan with 6 minutes to go in the 1st.
  20. How have the "New floor" and "Rock bottom!" threads not been merged yet?? Oh, wait...
