  1. Fun season. I’ll remember that more than this piss poor effort. I hope.
  2. I just can’t fathom being on this stage with this crowd and giving this kind of effort on defense. We haven’t done a single thing well defensively. We aren’t really contesting. We aren’t stopping the ball. We aren’t even taking away the dominant hand. Everything is easy.
  3. Would be thrilled to see an ounce of competitiveness on defense this half. Lazy defense on dribble drives, slow rotations, wide open 3s. Even when they miss they’re getting offensive rebounds. Just a complete meltdown on defense.
  4. Talked to a Hawkeyes beat writer who is always been fairly even-handed. He doesn’t think much of him as a player. He said his family and close confidants seemed to get into his head that he should be used differently than how Iowa did. It’ll be interesting to see if he does have more to his game.
  5. I like that these two additions aren’t mercenary types. Williams has been fine coming off the bench and Mast is a secondary initiator on offense. They should fit great with the reshaped style of Hoiberg ball.
  6. It’s a joke. Four or five players would foul out every game if they actually called it like that, but they decided to wait until the final minute to call it twice when neither were clear an ld obvious? I seriously can’t stand watching basketball because of this gross incompetence. It’s infuriating. I don’t even know why I waste my time.
  7. I’m not gonna lie. I barely watch college basketball anymore. Embarrassing officiating has completely sucked the life out of me. What kind of ref has such a raging hard-on to call two illegal screens in a two-point game in the final minute?
  8. When’s the last time we had a team that fit together? Certainly not during the Hoiberg era.
  9. I respect you guys for willingly putting yourself through this. What an unmitigated disaster Hoiberg has been. Just unfathomable. Good thing I mentally checked out during the exhibition season.
  10. Imagine rooting for a softer, big loser energy duo than Nebraska men’s basketball and football.
  11. Arizona State vs Oregon is on ESPNU right now.
  12. I’ve been Eeyore with the recruits and the transfers, but it’s hard to be down with a recruiting class like this. Just incredible.
  13. I’m happy that Hoiberg got a guy he wanted, but I have such little enthusiasm for commits these days. Transfers are a huge part of the game, but it makes it hard for me to care since it seems like these guys are gone a year or two later anyway. Sorry to be Eeyore.
  14. Disappointing. No other way to put it. We look like we have no idea what to do in the half court.
  15. Nitpicky after a win, for sure, but imagine how good this team can be once they have better ball movement to create wide open 3s? And I can’t even explain how my body reacts to Allen’s shooting form. How does it get to that point?
  16. I assume people meant Levert the college player. If we’re talking the NBA player, he definitely is a poor man’s version. He did sign a $52.5M deal after all...
  17. I know these are unprecedented times, but holding off on talking about your recruiting class because of the schedule seems odd to me. I think they know what’s coming...
  18. I hope this happens for all you board old timers. This program hasn’t really deserved the support you guys have given it over the years, and lord knows you’ve seen too many recruiting battles end in heart break.
  19. Not to be a downer, but all this turnover in college athletics has me losing interest. There is no growing and building as a team in high-major basketball. I find myself not even caring when we get a recruit, particularly freshman-to-be. I feel like they’ll be out the door before I know it.
  20. Any chance he could do that a few months ago?
  21. I should have just read the Sanogo thread first. I’m caught up now. The timing of Heady’s article was not ideal, and who knows what a 17-year-old uses to make important life choices. Sounds like he was a Seton Hall commit regardless.
  22. If things got out, they were worried other teams would negative recruit or try to jump in late? All of the above? I guess I don’t follow regarding Sanogo. He was a pretty big recruit so it’s not like we can keep him under the radar.
  23. Just looking at his offer list has me fairly excited. An athletic rim protector and floor runner is much needed. Anything more than that is a home run.
