Being a huge Pirates fan, I can't share in your joy, but if this means that the times are changing and longtime underdogs like the Huskers can win also, I guess I'm for it!

Wasn't Shooter in the class of 1931?

I had heard he had some grade issues. Does anyone know if he is eligible to play right away?

Kind of reminds me of the year Danny Nee flat out asked the writers how they picked us last in the Big 8. We went on to be a 3 seed in the NCAA's that year. Maybe we will see the same type of surprise from this year's team. Our best years seem to come when nobody pays any attention to us in the preseason.

I got to visit the gym in which the movie was filmed. You can rent it out and play pick up basketball games there. It is pretty cool how they have kept it up.

Sorry, I was kidding with the Dennis Hopper guess. Shooter's son is the player that got in a fight at one of the games. I'm trying to remember his name. Can you give a hint, like in what scene do they mention his real name?

Dennis Hopper?!!!! Do they use the name in the movie, or is it just listed in the credits? Great trivia question.

Good points. 2 and 3 are one in the same. If we can defend the low post without having to double down, we can lock up on 3 point shooters. Alex Maric gave us the ability to do that and I thought we defended well Doc's first year. It went downhill after that because of a lack on someone who could guard the block one on one.

Robin Washut ‏@RobinWashut 18m18 minutes ago Miles said he’s confident Anton Gill will be ready for the start of the season. Roby’s return date still unclear Robin Washut ‏@RobinWashut 21m21 minutes ago Tim Miles said Anton Gill is “a couple weeks out” from practicing, and Isaiah Roby is "about a month out.” Gill had procedure on knee.

Miles said Ed Morrow might be most powerful guy on team. Said he powers through Jordy all the time in practice, and that’s not a knock on JT 1 retweet1 like Reply Retweet 1 Like 1 More Robin Washut ‏@RobinWashut 11m11 minutes ago Miles said Tai Webster could play 1-2-3 this season, and Glynn Watson could play both 1-2.

"McPipe line" Clever!

I agree with all the points mentioned, but to me the biggest issue is being able to defend the block. If Jordy, MJ and Morrow can give us that, I think we will be a much improved team.

I think he chose UC-Davis over Indiana State and Denver U. I believe the Huskers wanted him to walk-on.

Has anyone else heard that we are starting to cool on Chang?

That is correct, his Dad is the AD. I figured NU had to know about him.

Yeah, the year is correct! Not sure that NU even knows about him (I believe Creighton has watched him) but he played varsity as a 7th grader. Saw him play a little this summer and might be their best player as an 8th grader, You would not think he was that young if you did not know it, looked like a Senior! Never know how these young phenoms develop but really one to keep your eye on. He is about 6' 5" now, so I'm guessing he will grow.

Gotta love SCTV!

A great shooter. Should help Chadron a ton.

I always said the same thing. Create a major for those athletes that are interested in a career in their sport.
