This reminds me of the Steve Pederson coaching hire. I remember some people talking about how nobody big would take the Nebraska job. Kentucky is going through pretty much the same thing.

i don’t think that would bother Fred much when you look back on his Iowa State days. He was pretty good with transfers back then.

i really like Payne for what he is. He is a tank in the paint….a throwback PF. If you need muscle down low he’s your man. If you need a passing or stretch 4 type…definitely NOT your man. It would be interesting to see how he would blend into this team.

I’m a little surprised that both Wlicher and Lawrence left with Tominaga graduating. I figured they would be ready to battle it out for the role of primary shooter. Hopefully that means we have some options lined up for that role.

I can’t believe Enfield was at USC 11 years. That makes me feel old!

Timing is everything. If we were coming off this season when Baylor was transferring, our chances would have been much better. We were a dumpster fire when Baylor was mulling his options. I don’t blame him.

yep. They are the 10th worst 3 point shooting team in the country. They were insanely hot. We have to hope they return to the mean. But we cannot let them keep driving.

A&M was out of their mind shooting this half. We need to settle down and not hang our heads . They should come back down to earth.

From a basketball perspective I would love to have him slot into Josiah’s spot. Millerhusker’s comments give me pause, though. Culture ABSOLUTELY has to come first.

Frankie as of today is the #12 player in the portal. Not that that is the end-all-be-all, but that makes me curious who Nebraska and Creighton are targeting.

I will forever think the play in games are stupid.

It is hard to beat a decent team three times in a season, and Indiana was in a bit of a roll. And we are up by 30. I expected Indiana to make a run and make it remotely close at some point. What an awesome game by the boys.

Indiana’s normal starting lineup has 2 5 stars and 3 four stars. And we freaking own these guys. This team is so much fun to watch!

it looked like Tominaga wanted to take it to him when he saw who was guarding him. Poor freshman indeed!

yep. Seems like that happens a lot in basketball on a missed call

I was hoping they would put up with one more season of Juwan since he is a Michigan man. Kind of like us and Frost. I knew he would tank Michigan but this was better than I could have ever hoped for.

Challenge accepted!

Wow. That’s a good get for DePaul if it comes to fruition.

I’d prefer getting that elusive first tourney win. Being the only P5 program without a tourney win in 125+ years of basketball is a 2000 lb gorilla on our backs to me.

Our “problem” is we are so balanced we may not get a guy. People thought we would rely on Tominaga which hasn’t been the case. Being the #20 scorer in the league when that is your main attribute as a player probably won’t cut it. But he is a media darling and the face of potentially the #4 team in the BIG. And a team that far exceeded their predicted finish. So there’s a chance. Meanwhile, Mast could make a run at bumping Reese or Omanyuri, even though when they play us they look like All Americans. His scoring and rebounding are in the ballpark with those two, and he is much better at assists. And, he is on a much better team, which often gets rewarded. Except we are Nebraska, so I am not counting on it.

I kind of wonder if he could eventually slot into Gary’s role. He seems very athletic and could be pretty rugged with some college S&C. I don’t know if he could be quite as good defensively as Gary but offensively I think he would do well eventually.

I’d want Kal’el Ware from Indiana. That guy is a beast and is a serious rim protector.

Ouch. As if they weren’t having enough problems this season. I kind of figured Howard would ruin this team eventually but he has exceeded my expectations this year. I hope they give him as much rope as we did Frost.

Yep. He is a guy who should score on the receiving end of the play only. He is a horrible facilitator and ball handler.

He needs to put the black tights back on. He is cold right now
