Has Rick Barnes lost his job at Texas? If he is ousted, I'm sure they will go after Greg Marshall...they really want Bill Self...hah..why leave a Basketball school to play 3rd fiddle to Football and UT-Regents politics.

Lighten up on Maryland. She was just making a little fun of the current President's bracket. Her coaching record is very solid.
-
I think a lack of overall quickness will plague us against the top teams. Who is going to guard Mitchell from Ohio St. or the Maryland guards? We should field a team with decent size and shooting capability.

WBB: Game # 32 vs Syracuse (NCAA Tournament 1st Round)
Cazzie22 replied to Row6Seat10's topic in Row 6 Seat 10
It has been a pleasure to follow these 4 Senior Girls through their career at NU. Gutty, tough, competitors and good representatives of the University and the State of Nebraska. Tonight's game was about turnovers. Too many bad passes at inopportune times. Loved the courage to keep battling back. Looking forward to a future with a nucleus of Theriot (healthy) Romeo, Smith and Havers to build around. -
6'6" and 3 6'4" players means it's not a good match up for NU. They played South Carolina to 4 points early in the season, lost by 2 to Duke in Durham and to Michigan State by 13 in December. It's all about match-ups and the height differential could be overwhelming. IF the Huskers did win they would face and extremely tall and deep front line in South Carolina. Tough assignment for the Lady Huskers.
-
The shooting of all will improve, in my opinion, if we (1) take better shots (2) not wait until the end of the shot clock and (3) pass the ball better to open shooters.
-
Norm, how much will she help next year? I've heard good things about Maddie Simon.
-
The Pioneers had to be a pretty good team.
-
I tend to agree with Dan Dakich's assessment of NU this season. Too many mistakes, too many forced shots from key players. There is talent on the roster. I would like to see the ball pushed more up court because the Huskers tended to be inept often in half court offense. The downside to that is more possessions per game usually favors the more talented team. Watson might be the key to next year. He could be the ball handler and playmaker the team desperately needs.
-
NU probably turns the ball over too often to play the running transition game but it seems to me we were more effective,( being a relative term), on offense than our setting up and trying to execute in the half court. Penn State was playing better at the end of the season and it is not a shock to lose this game. The future is not terribly bright nor is it bleak. I guess it is cloudy (no offense to Stan)
-
If Shephard is healthy then Havers might be able to handle a starting role. I don't think Shephard can be ready for the Australia trip and Theriot might not be either. So some interesting combos might be needed.
-
Chandler Smith is being groomed to take over for Theriot. She has some good instincts for the game and has nice size. She will blossom next year though it is going to be a tough season for NU unless Jessica Shephard is very, very good from the beginning.
-
The Ohio State University women's BB team is going to be scary good the next few years. It will be difficult for Nebraska to keep pace with them and Maryland. That was quite a game with Maryland pulling it out in the end.
-
A disappointing season but not a bad effort against a very good Maryland team. Melo Trimble is an amazing player, hope he goes pro, and Dez Wells sank a great shot. Better free throw shooting might have saved the day. I liked the fact we took the ball to the rim and didn't always settle for the jump shot. Penn St. will be a tough test as they will be coming off a road win at Minnesota.
-
Too many sloppy passes in the early part of the 2nd half turned the game around. Iowa is tough and they were tougher on the boards and after loose balls tonight. Lady Huskers played tough to the end but werer probably on fumes late. It would very disappointing if this group doesn't get to play in the NCAA tournament.
-
Is that a legit question about playing Romeo or are you being snarky? It was unfair of me to pile on. I was being snarky! Natalie and all the Huskers played well tonight. Good shooting does tend to overcome some poor play.
-
Natalie had a fine all around game. Loved the drive to the hoop for the traditional 3 point play. Pulled down a few first half rebounds and handled the Illini pressure well. She needs to bring her "A" game tomorrow night.
-
I wonder why we played Romeo so much tonight! Great effort by the Lady Huskers! A little sloppy at times. Brandi Jeffrey's 8 assists were impressive. Hopefully we can lock up Melissa Dixon tomorrow and shoot well enough to stay in the game.

uneblinstu's post game chatter: ed 7, vol 28 - Illinois
Cazzie22 replied to uneblinstu's topic in The Haymarket Hardwood
I liked the fight the team showed against the Illini. Too bad the hot shooting start to the 2nd half couldn't continue for a few minutes longer. Good shooting cures many evils. Smith gave us a post presence and made some nice plays. All we can ask is that the Huskers keep giving a good effort. -
I think Purdue has an excellent class coming in next year. They probably won't be down long.
-
Iowa plays a fun style of basketball. Ohio St. v Iowa in the semis would be a heck of a game. That being said, NU, providing we can get by Illinois, matches up better with Iowa than OSU. Tournament time is all about match-ups.
-
???????? Granted, she is not a great defender, but she is tough and usually a consistent scoring threat. How many players do we have that can create their own shot? Laudermill. NU relies on complimentary players to use movement and find the open man and help on defense. Romeo is our best to fill iin for Theriot.
-
Ohio State is scary good. Athletic teams have always hurt NU. It will be tough to keep pace with some of the teams in this league. The 4 Seniors are going to be missed tremendously. Imagine, Illinois beat OSU so the game Wednesday will be difficult with Ivory Crawford back from injury.
-
Has Coach Miles "lost" this team? If so, with most returning, will that endanger next season?
-
Nice win. Frankly, I didn't believe we could score enough to beat Minnesota. The Gophers didn't seem to have much in the tank tonight. I noticed Chandler Smith getting 7 rebounds and some nice assists. Romeo is a gem.
