Pretty stout competition in that top 10 list.

If you have visions of someone NOT going off for 50 points you're thinking of Michael Beasley

I guess I can accept that answer...but OTOH I have a hard time accepting Charlie Easley as a lock for top 10 in next year's rotation.

well, why didn't you say so?

Not even close.

...and if you're a glutton for punishment, then go ahead and check out Bart Torvik's 2021 projections. http://barttorvik.com/trankpre.php Nebraska is the only Big Ten team outside the top #100 (at #107). The next lowest ranked Big Ten team is Maryland at #73. He does leave Stevenson and Walker out of his projected contributors for Nebraska though http://barttorvik.com/rosters21.php?team=Nebraska&year=2021. Not sure why because Banton is in there along with Mayen, Webster and Allen.

Me too! I especially love only needing to walk just a few blocks to go to the Husker game!

Okay, now I want this guy and DJ Carton. We'd have half the league pissed at us!

They're pretty much in the acceptance phase now. It's pretty sad.

I'm buying tickets the day they go on sale.

I can't believe how entertaining these NCAA Tournament simulation games are

Florida vs Michigan is live

the Devaney Center is one of the regional sites, LOL

Also, the College Basketball subreddit is conducting a virtual NCAA Tournament (College Basketball 2K8) on YouTube. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdWlkSkTdyqer6PJvy4JO3w/videos Next game comes on at 1:30 today. More info here:

Watching that game brings out an interesting side note. Man, those non-breakaway rims were UNFORGIVING! Can you imagine what today's shooters' percentages would go down to if they had to play on those rims?

NCAA has uploaded a bunch of old tournament games you can watch in full https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXCWZ2G0LOavdqSs58wZ7Mx2YohF9fYEK Here's the Magic/Bird game from '79

My money's on K-State.

@Norm Peterson takes a hiatus from the board and the world devolves into apocalypse. Coincidence? I'm not sure. Easter Sunday is just over 3 weeks away...will we be able to survive that long?

I always thought he was pretty good in "The Fisher King".

Iowa State had 3 enter the portal in the last 24 hours.

LOL if we had a Wisco and Ohio State player on our team next year...

Mazel Tov!

IIRC, CU was after him pretty hard last year. I think it came down to us and them, wonder if there's still some interest there.

I got a couple:
