Just great Norm...I try to purge these miserable memories, and you just bring them back up willy-nilly.

I've heard Fred say numerous times that we do not want to pick up players with attitude issues. The other day I heard the new Iowa coach say something similar. He indicated first and foremost, he is looking for players that can play. But he would pass on any player with a "me first" attitude or lost interest if he was having a bad game or practice (I am paraphrasing). But I think many coaches think that way. Yet, in today's age, aren't most players and their handlers, "me first". They demand dollars, they demand playing time, they require X amount of touches or shots each game. Hey, if I'm not starting, I'm departing? What can a middling program like ours, do? Crap, every program wants the uber talented, excellent scholar, great citizen kid. Tell me PLEASE, how do we get those kids here? I've heard that restaurants can offer great food, cheap food and great/fast service. Unfortunately, most, if not all those restaurants can only succeed with two out of three. I feel like we have to evaluate what we are willing to do to secure a championship team. I personally love high energy kids. But how do you get and keep kids that have the high energy and elite basketball talent?

I don't think it's is just the media. Nebraska fans tend to focus on what we don't have rather than enjoy what we do have. I mean, it is who we are!

A lot of stuff we can probably be critical of, and sure Georgetown and the rest of the Big East sucks; but hey we won. And we won with two walk ons starting and playing big minutes. Brice was awesome as was Juwan; but do we expect anything less from those two. And our complementary players did okay. We are going to have to be much better to win the next two games though. Hey, 19 wins baby!

$50K in the coffers baby!

Whew.

Nice win fellas

I wonder if he is interested in transferring...to us.

Man...Brice!!!

As long as he doesn't shoot from the perimeter...

4 steps used to be a travel.

Shots are not falling for us. Now they can't miss. Eerily similar to Iowa game.

Essigian's shot is flat again

When Brice drives he bodies up. When they drive, they push with their arm. That's so wrong.

Simply put, we are a bad team right now. What an embarrassment.

That stretch sucked.

I know that dude. He came back to Lincoln for the summer and won an eating contest at my office. Good dude. When Georgetown won their championship, he was on the floor running around like a maniac looking for a hug...

Brice with 3 fouls...and all of them unnecessary

Oh man, I like Gus!

...and 290 of them are husker fans, including the dude sitting on their bench.

10 point lead. Stop turning it over and we should be fine.

Another good little spurt.

How in the hell was that on us????

Ulis is open because they WANT him to shoot. He has to remember that. If your that open, take it to the hoop and finish there, or dish it to someone who came hit a perimeter shot. His brain just farts when he sees that look!

Nice segment!
