  1. Perhaps. Time will tell. Obviously, if they get the financial support, they will be in a better position to buy players.
  2. Thought this deserved its own thread. Gonzo. Heading to N.C. State Not sure if this is good, bad or otherwise. Hey, we didn't earn a NCAA Tournament bid or a NCAA Tournament win with him. Hopefully, Fred can find someone, who is the right fit, and has a magic elixir that takes us to basketball nirvana. Good luck Adam, and thank you for your service.
  3. Inconsistancy and referee's interpretation of rules are the issues. At one point, no hand checking was allowed. Now a one arm/ hand check is allowed, yet the rule really hasn't changed. In fact, in some instances, a double hand check is allowed. 3-second rule...it is still a rule, yet rarely called, and when it is, there is an appearance of referee bias. Coaches boxes...come on, really? Coaches going ape shit, and the referees let it happen...really??? Other calls or fouls are sometimes called by certain refs against certain teams, and not the others??? Hey, I get it, it's a tough job. But it always has been. What has changed is the failure to adhere to the rule book. Go back and administrate the rule book OR change the rules. Simplify the rules. Yes, it is possible to do that. Remove the key area, tighten the travel rule, etc.

  5. There is a grad out of South Dakota State that we allegedly are taking a look at. He is a big. Oscar Cluff.
  6. Are you 100% positive...
  7. Intensity is fantastic; but man, the physicality is unflipping believable. Who made the decision to allow games be as physical as they are?
  8. That boorish behavior got him fired as well.
  9. Our past two freshmen classes proves that young players can help take a team to the next level. Next year we have a couple coming in that appear capable of making a difference. If we go to the portal, or Europe we may get a couple more. And yes, we need at least one additional power player. May I add, we have seen that fit/chemistry is of utmost importance. So "fit" is necessary.
  10. Folks, there is A LOT of money donated to our fine university. But to the disdain of many fans, not all of it goes to athletics. Some on this following list also donate elsewhere...this is from five years ago. https://business.unl.edu/nebraskabusiness/2020/article/donor-list-2020/
  11. I could argue that Danny brought some terrific talent, and had is right on the edge. What coulda and shoulda happen, didn't. That said, Huggy can coach.
  12. Yes...Arkansas is still in.
  13. He looked good sitting on the bench...
  14. "Who cares" comes to mind.
  15. Along with TV Teddy.
  16. Hard to fake given he had surgery. I guess they could put him out fix a hang nail...
  17. Absolutely no reason you can't do both...plus recruit JUCO and high schools. Today's technology and the access to private jet(s) allows the coaches and supporting staff to do all rather seamlessly.
  18. Honestly, many of us thought the same thing when Fred was hired. We hope year seven brings us that first tournament win. Don't get me wrong, that is a great hire; but they have to overcome Purdue, in their own State, as well as a tough Big Ten schedule. I guess Dusty did it at Michigan, so hey, who knows.
  19. Please!!! I lost my optimism several years ago. I am hoping they will be fine.
  20. Meah should never been brought in. That is not a reflexion on him or his play. He simply was not a fit to our schemes; and frankly there were no adjustments made to fit his game. Berke on the other hand does seem to be a good fit. He was only a sophomore and seems to fit our schemes. He has an upside that can be leveraged and he has potential for growth. Lest we forget, he was one of our better defenders. Morgan played well in spurts . He should have been a 10 to 12 minute player; but was certainly mediocre in his more enhanced role.
  21. This makes me ill.
  22. 4* out of Sunrise Academy. Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma among teams recruiting him. Howard is our main recruiter. https://www.on3.com/db/aidan-chronister-237669/
