I'm tired of the extra seasons, but it has helped Nebrasketball, nevertheless... it's time to be done with it. Deion is a dipstick. This schtick will end horribly, I'd imagine, once his son is a QB in the league. Basketball is in a unique position in that a team basically only needs about 5-8 good enough players to go with 1 (or 2) star player(s) to be more than competitive. That's the point of development, a team can't just re-load every single year unless it's KU or Calipari at UK... I suppose now that opportunity is there for everybody, but I don't believe it is sustainable long-term. Time will tell...

This ostensibly will be the final COVID 'extra' season of eligibility, so recruiting freshmen will be needed to fill out a roster going forward. You can't just solely recruit in the portal anyway, so a coaching staff recruits kids from an early age to make sure they know one another for future considerations. it's basically mass free agency in the minor leagues of basketball....

Jamel White, he almost made a game-winning layup to beat Durant, yet NU lost 62-61 since JW missed a layup. And then he had off-the-court shoplifting charges... ended unceremoniously. I think NU still hired his uncle since Barry C. was nearing the end of his reign of terr(ible) basketball coaching in Lincoln...

At least NU could take 2 of 3. That's the bare minimum. Need some sweeps... and how 'bout winning against KU & CU....sheesh.

Gotta keep rollin'! NU left themselves little room for missteps. GBR Always.

Seems like a near certainty.... And he's a dude, so that a good thing. GBR Always. Lefty's 4 Life in Lincoln!!!

That sounds promising. . . ((UPDATE)) Then I read the follow-ups, *false alarm* lol. The SG news can be a boon..... still hopeful that WK-III and/or Milicic are 'N'!!!

If they're *all* good enough defenders, I'd take a 3rd. Why the heck not?! lol.

Yeah, Nebraska had a better conference record than KU. When's the last time that had happened..... sheesh, poor KU babies.

That's a better way to say what I'm getting at... THE MINOR LEAGUE FEEDING ORG. LOL.

Kevin, Nebraska had a Kevin. A Cross. I still think about Kevin Cross.

I was the guy going blind about a decade ago.... and, miracles do happen, after a slew of seven eye surgeries, I can see clearly now. The marvels of modern medical treatment and the capable hands of Dr. Lance Kugler, and no, I don't get paid to promote his wares. lol.

That 1st comment, lol. Gard must be a real ass or their N.I.L. sucks balls.

I think winning the Big Ten title is the thing they're concentrating on, evidently, because consistently losing to that little Jesuit school in eastern Omaha doesn't seem to be a priority TO CORRECT, at all.... sheesh.

Srsly, Bolt, WTH. 10 of 12... that's BS.

1890 can be Nebraska's salvation, tbh.

Yeah, "loosely related" made me chuckle. It's semi-pro ball.

Seems like a good fit for Diop. Smaller conference. Bigger minutes.

I said this last season that Brice Williams will be 'the man' in the mold of JPJ. And a lot of ppl didn't take to that notion, oh well. BW has proven to be well on his way to being that dude. Love what he's brought to the table in a tough spot, at PG. But, now, he'll be unleashed without KT30 around at the primary shot-taking spot.

Unless this is Brice's brother, I'm assuming you meant to write William Kyle III.... droppin' dimes, @hhcmatt?

Totally agree. That's why I advocate for William Kyle III as well as Igor Milicic Jr. They'd both fit on athleticism as well as being bigger guys who can help score, rebound, and defend. It will be crucial next season to do all 3 well. If Gavin Griffiths can provide much of the scoring deficit left by Keisei Tominaga, I'd feel real good about about another top 1/3rd of the Big Ten next year, which is top 6 in an 18-team league. That '18' and BIG TEN will take some getting to used to, lol.

I hope NU can still snag an athletic wing player as well as another big... maybe Milicic and/or WK-III would fit, even both of 'em, as NU needs to shore up the interior and athleticism factors going into a 18-team Big Ten. It will be BRUTAL to face, so as many big dawgs will help the cause at securing that elusive M.M. victory, hopefully in Wichita, KS, in 2025 !!

Rollie is definitely not the Worster decision for Freddy & Co. So many play-on-words with Rollie to keep on rollin'! GBR Always.

This must be a money grab..... a few of these dudes played quite a bit. They are seeking their true valuation in the marketplace, even the guys who didn't show enough potential to constitute a higher valuation than their pedigree are listed, and they wanna push their portfolio forward, at all costs. lol.
