Will there be any single game tickets available this year? I hope to catch a game in PBA over the Christmas Holiday period.

Teller's Tales.

Mike Peltz. I thought he did some good things for the team early last season. Probably won't see much time but having better people to practice against will make this team better prepared.

How can Chuck Taylor's be banned??? That is sacreligous!!!

Chuck Taylor Converse All Stars and my senior year we switched to (and nobody on this board has probably heard of these!) Bata Bullets! Still will wear Chuck Taylors for casual wear.

Connie seems to have a good idea of what type of players she wants in her system. This looks to be a good group coming in to help keep the program at a high level.

I just hope he turns out to be a good, high quality, high character player for NU.

1. I love NU athletics. I try to follow all of them as closely as I can from Central Texas. I voted FB and BB equal. I've been able to celebrate 5 national championships in FB and hope to see NU win one (1) NCAA game before my time expires on this planet. 2. I voted for Miles because of the enthusiasm and energy he seems to have generated in the program, plus I thought he did a hell of a job with last year's team. Football is going to be competitive but the days of challenging annually for conference (1999) and National Championships are not coming back to Lincoln. It's going to be tough to keep pace with Ohio State and Michigan. I have mixed feelings about Pellini and some of his staff but after the debacle with his predecessor (it's only one game, one season Callahan), I can live with it.

She can learn a great deal from that coaching staff. Coach Coale knows what she is doing and the Marist coach is very good.

I still remember in disbelief, Woody Mayfield waving off a last second shot by KU in Allen Field House and Tom Apke and the Colorado Buffs sprinting to the locker room after the upset. Coach Owens was not a happy man! This post is clearly showing my age!

It takes money to attract top quality assistants. One has to be optimistic about the future of the program. I'm not asking for much, but I would like to see NU win an NCAA game while I'm still on the earth...I'm not getting any younger!

Louisville and Indiana are adidas...I think they do OK in basketball.

IF we leave adidas then please avoid Nike...I'd even go Under Armour over Nike.

TV Timeouts or media timeouts are killing the game for a spectator. I wish Coaches would realize when they are beat and call off all of the fouling to stop the clock at the end of the game. The clock does not need to stop in the last minute of play. Games are too long, not necessarily too slow. Maybe a 30 second clock but not 24. But remember, the women don't have a time line at midcourt.

I think a Top Ten rating is a little optimistic. Lindsey Moore did a lot for the team, like playing 40 minutes a game but Theriot did get plenty of experience playing the point this season. Someone has to step up the scoring for Moore's absence and just her overall court presence. NU should contend for the B1G championship next season.

Though I don't watch the WNBA, my best wishes to Lindsey Moore. She was great for NU! She is a future coach...if that's what she wants to do.

Might as well get ready to hand the title to UConn next year. There is too much of a talent difference between the top 4/5 schools and the rest of the teams.

Women ought to ask Gary Blair to bring up the Aggies to Lincoln.<br /><br />

I like Iowa State....maybe bring up UNLV from the Mountain West...or Mizzou.

Never mind! You can see how well I paid attention to the previous post!!!

In fairness to Coach G, at Duke she was recruiting against a limited group of schools for girls that had the academic acumen to go to elite schools. It is true that she failed to cultivate rapport with Texas H.S. coaches and didn't keep someone on board from the Jody Conradt era. She is a Michigan native an might do well at OSU. The culture in Austin is different and not everyone is up to handle it.

Something needs to happen in Women's BB. UConn, ND, Tennessee and Stanford have a headlock on the game and the major talent. UConn is clearly assisted by being in ESPN's backyard for recruiting. I would think their conference isn't going to provide much of a challenge so they will have to continue to play a strong non-conference schedule. California is a newcomer to the Final Four and a good showing by the Bears might be a sign that some changes are forthcoming.

Kim Mulkey is always worth the price of admission! But from a male's point of view Sherri Coale will always be my favorite! Baylor should have put Griner up at High Post and force fed Brooklyn Pope and Destiny Williams underneath. The Bears will be OK next year, they still have Odyssey Sims and Mulkey can recruit.

If Hooper can come up with a more effective post game, she could move up to 2nd or 3rd team All-American. Everyone on the squad needs to step up to replace Moore if the team is going to match this year's success.

NU battled and defended well today. Just could not hit any shots when we needed them to go down. Stretch at the end of the first half probably cost us the game. Proud of the Lady Huskers! If everyone steps up their game and some of the incoming recruits provide some depth next year can be a nice year as well.
