  1. In my defense Samari was “Mr Basketball” in a State NOT named North/South Dakota. And it’s FAR from a stretch to think Sallis will be a “FOY” candidate somewhere, I’m just hoping like the rest of of us it’s in Lincoln!
  2. Hey let’s not forget I wanted Brady Heiman to start with Copeland/Palmer/Roby/Watson... think of that frontline!
  3. If we only could’ve got those road WINS @ Maryland & Rutgers...
  4. Hunter Sallis will be B1G Freshman of the Year on our way to a Sweet 16 run...!
  5. Brock Lesnar thought he was a “Badass” until he tried out for the Vikings...!
  6. So are we going with: Kobe Kobe Delano Trey Teddy to start now...?
  7. George C. Scott too... “Yer a BORN Loser Eddie”!
  8. I just re-watched “the Hustler” the other night, I’d forgotten how brilliant the ending is...
  9. No one “shot that arrow” after a make like OUR Cam... (except maybe Fernando Rodney) for you Baseball fans in the crowd...
  10. Steve Henson... Just thought of it!
  11. Or Askia Jones, (not against us tho) AND who was their super-annoying little white guard ala’ Aaron Craft who always had his shorts hiked up like an old man?
  12. I have visions of Rolando Blackmon, Ed Neely, & Jacob Pullen dancing in my head. Aggieville here I come...!
  13. Nate did have a “tryout” with the Lakers...!
  14. They had a nice piece on 10/11 last night about next season & the HUGE (& welcome, I might add) roster turnover. Just seeing Banton, Stevenson, Walker etc in a shoot-around made me smile. At least we’ll look like a B1G team coming off the bus, as they say...
  15. Nothing says “Nebraska Basketball” like a 7am time slot... sad thing is, if I had BTN that pot of Coffee & Bushmills would be ready to roll @ 6:45!
  16. I thought he was already out the door, now it’s just “official”? Well, when you won a whopping SEVEN games, what are we really clinging too... Next
  17. Jason had the whole thing “collapse” on him, Shaq BENT where the glass is attached to the framework... The Big Aristotle!
  18. I was at the 1990 Olympic Festival Tournament, Williams Arena when 18 year old Shaquille O'Neil's South squad took on Eric Montross’s East team. Shaq was already 7’ tall & 3 bills, he threw down a dunk SO hard, he didn’t bend the rim, he dislodged the entire “standard” & backboard...
  19. I heard some sports channel(s) are airing old Tournament games, one in particular perked my ears. Magic/Bird I in the ‘79 Title game. That’s for many the BC-AD moment for not only College Basketball, but for Basketball writ large...
  20. Bridges is brilliant in “Crazy Heart” as Bad Blake...
  21. Can’t say I’m surprised, he’s well aware of who’s going to see minutes next year & where he’d fit in. I guess being solid role player on a WINNING team didn’t interest him... Good Luck
  22. I’ll go with pretentious claptrap & I was never a big “Thelma & Louise” fan either. “Burn After Reading” & “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” I thought were throw aways for him too, where he certainly wasn’t taxed.
  23. Have you seen “Kalifornia” with Pitt & Juliette Lewis...? A murderous, delinquent road trip goes wrong.
  24. That film too really shook me like no other. Talked with a friend at the time, said he didn’t look at anything the same for a long time either. I think it might’ve hit “too close to home” in the way a lot of us were living....
