Why would anyone get fired whose team is in the upper right corner of the chart in this tweet (hint—Huskers are looking very good!)?

Penn St. has a defender who can handle Palmer. Last year, Palmer’s numbers against Penn St. were similarly poor and went something like this: —January game there: 1-9 from the field and 3-4 from the line for 5 points, with 4 boards, 3 fouls in 20 minutes —February game in Lincoln: 5-12 from the field, 0-3 from three, 1-3 from the line for 11 points, with 6 turnovers in 33 minutes. When a defender can handle Palmer, there has to be a different way to win. Roby was that “different way” last night.

Saw Arop play this evening at the Metro Tournament: very athletic and explosive—a beast on the defensive end and dominant in the paint. He’s the second coming of Ade Dagunduro. Can’t wait to see him in Husker red!

San Diego St. has four games, this season, decided by 12 points or less: Xavier (W) on Nov. 20; Illinois St. (W) on Dec. 1; San Diego (L) on Dec. 5; and Cal (W) on Dec. 8. In these four games Ed Chang did not play. Aguek Arop, on the other hand: did not play against Xavier; had 1 minute against Cal; had 12 minutes against Illinois St. with 7 points, 4 rebounds, a foul and a turnover; and had 16 minutes against San Diego with 0 points, 2 rebounds, a foul, an assist and a turnover.

The Boiler Room is cool! And it’s right across the street from Kaneko’s gallery (he’s a world renowned artist).

As to ragging on Roby, consider injury issues: —he had a pre-season leg/knee injury —he has continuing pain-in-feet problems —against Oklahoma St., he was on the floor in agony for a while, with a leg/knee injury—but came back to play the rest of the game, anyway.

Tim Miles pointed out that North Dakota and South Dakota have already implemented a shot clock in high school—and its working well. And if they can do it, why can’t Nebraska? Seems like a fair point.

Check out the second tweet below. It’s about Mika:

Start at the 34:00 mark for that discussion.

Here’s an unofficial visit he made to Lincoln back in 2015 (he’s in the gray t-shirt):
