Ha! Yeah, but if we can collapse back into the paint, ignore the opponents who aren’t good at hitting threes (e.g., Bakari Evelyn) and constantly harass those who can, Doc says we can have a chance.

Here’s hoping that all future opponents have really-big and dominant bigs, like Iowa and Purdue.

Maybe that playing time is because he made a visit to Lincoln over the weekend, instead of practicing with his team? Doesn’t Marial Mading always start? But the turnovers and low points do raise a flag.

Ha! Autocorrect actually made the change to “Chipotle,” when I wrote that post, and I had to manually change it back!

In ten minutes or so of Chipola game film from this year (granted, a small sample size), he spent a lot of that time guarding little guys out front.

Looks like he’s injury prone. Broke a pinky finger earlier this season. Was a top 50 recruit out of high school, according to Robin Washut,

Chris Heady’s Article today in the Omaha World Herald says that Hoiberg tried, and found, something new: he put Kavas at Center for 19 minutes, instead of the two freshmen. Here’s a quote: “in those 19 minutes, against Creighton starters, Nebraska was plus-5 over the Jays.” With the two freshmen on the floor, “the Huskers were minus-26.” ”With Kavas . . . things change.” In the second half, the Huskers “drove and kicked, shooting better than 60%.” With Kavas in the game, the Huskers “scored exclusively off 3-pointers and layups, precisely what NU wants.”

On these two thoughts, (i) interesting point on free throw misses affecting rebound stats, and (ii) agree on hotdogging.

Rumor has it that Teddy Allen may be getting some Nebrasketball interest.

So . . . it appears that everyone on this board is speculating, and no one has inside information? Is that appearance correct?

Michigan has now played two games. Here are the results: App State 71 Michigan 79 Creighton 69 Michigan 79 Looks like 79 is the magic number for the Wolverines.

If you are a coach at NU and have been watching the reaction of “greatest fans on earth” to the football team’s struggles, you are probably scared to death. Can’t blame the staff at all for wanting to tamp down expectations.

Lowering expectations:

Yeah. A pleasant surprise. But Cross dribbling the ball up the court is still cringe-worthy.
