Yep. We were a good shot blocking team last year....but that didn't mean we were a good post defensive team. The two are not one and the same. Though it does help more often than not
-
Wish I could agree but can't. Would take this guy over him. And I'm not sold on this guy. I'd trust this guy down low over McVeigh and I'd rather see Davis/Thor/Nana get time on the wing. Just wished we wouldve been smart and gone after a grad transfer post to begin with.
-
Just hope we legitimately like him for the future years and it’s not just an overreaction to our roster mismanagement in the past
-
If they qualified out if high school, they don’t need their degree
-
Not sure we why'd want a JUCO or grad transfer PG either. Why'd we sign Harris then? It was a big mistake to not go heavy after another big with Jordy, we need it even moreso now.
-
Unless its a D2 grad transfer think they still have to sit. Transfer down is immediately eligible. Transfers up still have to sit I think
-
If we wanted a PG....don't understand why we didn't go after Mitchell for last class.
-
If he put us in a bind it's our own fault.

A terrificly underrated movie
-
If it’s just them. It won’t hurt much. If we play 3-4 others like them. Then it adds up. We aren’t the only team playing teams like that
-
Just win. Our schedule will be fine provided we take care of a business a reasonable amount in our premier opportunities.

What type of kid should we recruit?

Hype train is out of control -
Potential? Yes. Heimann's is higher. Does he reach it this year though? Athletic Ability? Depends. Is Heimann quicker and more agile? Likely. Does he have the functional athletic ability to do what we need him to do now? Up for debate. Ball Handling? Again..up for debate. Sure, Heimann might be able to dribble better. But being strong with the ball is also a measure of ball handling. Borchardt would have an advantage here. And how much ball handling does either do? This is pretty negligible considering what each of their roles would be.
-
Think its fair to say again now that it'd be nice to have Morrow now.
-
Borchardt was just as effective as Jordy at times. He's not skilled. In that, you are right. But unlike Jordy, he knew and embraced his role more. I'd have hardly called Jordy a NY strip. More like an uncooked sirloin.
-
As far as signing a big. We didn't need a world beater. Or a difference maker. Jordy wasn't either of those. We needed a warm body for spot duty. It's not like we needed to reach for the stars/moon. We still do.
-
The positive side is this removes the temptation to play Jordy. You're right in that it does bog down the middle. The issue it creates is depth issues. Once again the reason we should've been going after a big transfer
-
Gebbia isn't a statue, but he doesn't move as well as Smith
-
Cant say Im surprised. It's exactly why I harped on recruiting a JUCO/grad transfer big all spring. It is/was absolutely stupid to sit on that last scholarship. Especially while we were in flux on Roby and Copeland.
-
Pretty much. A lot easier to accept roles when you are winning.
-
I still don’t buy that line. Hell be a post. A 4 or 5. He just didn’t want to play the post on a losing team

2019 PF Khalid Thomas - Arizona St

Must get IMO -
Don't think it'd be a given he'd come off the bench. Roby could easily play the 3 as well with Palmer at the two.

2019 SG Quenton Jackson (JUCO) -> Texas A&M
nustudent replied to hhcmatt's topic in Husker Hoops Recruiting
He's a freaky athlete...but I found it interesting because of the logjam of bodies that could play there. We are set to have all of 3 guys (Jordy-Sr, Roby-Sr, Heimann-rFr) right now (assuming Roby returns which is a stretch IMO) to man two positions in the front court. That's pretty thin, unbalanced and unless we see a huge step up by Jordy, not very good. Meanwhile we are set to have Thor, Nana, Burke, Allen who can not only play the two but are also going to be juniors as well in eligibility along with Harris who could also play the two. Combined with lack of depth at other spots and the logjam at this specific position, a JUCO offer makes me think we aren't real high on a few of those guys being big time contributors moving forward. Not to mention some of our HS offers at the wing positions as well. -

JUCO 2-Guard is interesting.
