Sheesch!
this has been a great year!!!
we outperform our 12th place prediction.
our third place finish is in a conference that is undefeated so far (except for us) in both the NCAA and the NIT first rounds.
we made it to the dance.
we don’t get to play a nobody at the dance and pretend we beat someone good.
the last game and a half exposed our weaknesses.
Fred Hoiberg and Co. will continue to improve Nebrasketball.
it’s been a great—and totally unexpected—run this season.
can’t wait for next year!!

This is how I feel right now
 
“Don’t cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.
🥲😀

Gotta get more athletic. Last 2 games hammered that point home.

Looks like Huskers needed to requisition some helmets and shoulder pads from the football team for today’s game.
Couldn’t believe, for example, the play in the second half where Hoiberg got run over by Shannon—literally, and head-on and outside the arc—but no-blood-no-foul, I guess.
This is why Illinois has been laying an egg in the tournament every year in recent times—they can’t get away with the same physicality with officials outside the B1G.  Perhaps they’ll prove otherwise this time around?
 
Also, Huskers looked gassed in the second half and didn’t have the legs to make their threes.

Great quote from the coach
 
 
 

I’m mad.  I don’t handle losses well.  But I was just sitting here wracking my brain whether we’ve done enough for a 7 seed.  And then I had to smile.  I’m frickinf wondering if we did enough for a 7 seed.  Not whether we’d even get in or whether the NIT would take us.
 
special season indeed and I just had to sit back and smile

Husker Nation, you know how this story goes, please pray or give positive vibes to this young buck.
 

His game now does resemble Livingston's. Raptors shouldn't have let him go. Glad to see him thriving in Portland.

I missed most of that fast paced first half because I went to church.  I have a feeling my explanation at the pearly gates will go over better than yours.  😉

One does not simply walk into the Octagon and walk out with a win.
 

I wonder if our football staff knows how good he could be 😉

I guess that depends on who you're referring to and what those comments are. There are some locally who are very high on him.
 
If you want the critical breakdown, decision-making still has plenty of room for improvement, although it's tough to hold that against him too much considering the pieces around him at Bryan. He's pretty turnover-prone, both getting his dribble ripped when he tries to do too much and some bad passing. Takes some really tough shots at inopportune times. This may just be a strength thing that a college S&C program will solve, but he can struggle to finish around the basket with even a little bit of contact at times.
 
That being said, I've been impressed by the improvements he's made. He really did have a terrific season individually. The 3-point shot was more flashes than an actual weapon for him until this season (low 3s his first two seasons and didn't make many at all for MOKAN last summer), and this year he nearly doubled his attempts and still shot 40%. He's a very different player if the shot is for real, and it appears to be getting there. Good frame, long wing span, athletic enough. He can make some plays off the dribble, but we'll have to see how that translates to college. He rebounds it well, has some moves in the post and can make some impressive plays in transition.
