Idk. With his build and the way he plays hoops, I bet he’d be a pretty decent safety.

I am pretty sure they told his defender to NEVER leave him. I don’t think the guy covering helped on defense once all game. Keisei did a good job not trying to force things. I saw him only take one shot that I would call forced.

Daaaaaaaaaamn. That is some impressive explosion. Funny how that works with most Nebraska kids to your point.

Uh….yeah. My bad!

Got him right where we want him. Portal target in 2 years.

I’d be all for it but honestly there aren’t a lot of players over there that could play P5 basketball. The only one other than Keisei I recall is Rui Hachimura who played for Gonzaga. He wasn’t your typical Japanese player….his father was African I believe. Baseball is their best sport. Most people who follow baseball know Ichiro Suzuki and Hideki Matsui. Now if Keisei know some baseball studs back home he should forward their information to Will Bolt ASAP.

On behalf of the Japanese I approve of your message. (I’m part Japanese so I am rounding up). I actually was thinking (hoping) along the same lines as you. He seems like he is having the time of his life…I suspect he wants to finish this off right.

I wonder if the advertisement was geared towards Husker fans after the win or Maryland fans after the loss?

I hope you didn’t find a place that would take that bet or you are sweating bullets right about now Norm

That steal by Hoiberg was surreal. I’m still coming down from that play. Wow.

rolls right off the tongue

When Northwestern’s two best returning players portalled (is that a word?) out, I figured they would be Minnesota level. In my opinion Collins should be COY in the BIG. Floored by the job he has done with their team.

Can I give that more than one up arrow Norm? Last year had to be so aggravating for Keisei. I remember many times he was wide open on the wing and Bryce/Verge wouldn’t even look at him.

He has the physical traits you are looking for. It all depends if he mentally would buy into that role like Bando.

SJSU is a brutally difficult job. Tim is doing way above and beyond what I expected. I am really happy for him. He handled himself with class here.

This is apt. Our team reminds me of some of the Oklahoma State teams Eddie Sutton cobbled together every year.

Walker looks like a non-Adams college tri-lamb. my favorite comedy of all time. I watch it at least once a year.

I dunno…did he really leave us at the alter? We slow played the shit out of him if I remember everything correctly. Harrison Phillips style (sorry for going football here) He came here on his own when he was a nobody in the national scene. I believe Matt A finally offered. Probably because he got his 4th star. It’d be like an unattractive girl throwing herself at you and you don’t give her the time of day, and then she blossoms into an hottie and you get mad she goes off with someone else.

I love this version of Nebrasketball. Just a fun, fun group of kids to watch. I’ve thought about the what if with injuries . We miss their defense and rebounding for sure. But the reason we are seeing Keisei going off and Sam Hoiberg emerging as a valuable player is because of those injuries. You could probably add Lawrence in there too. My hope is that when Gary returns next year he will blend in with the guys and we keep this thing going.

From everything I heard, Chucky was coming to Nebraska until Tim Miles was fired. He didn’t know Fred so I don’t blame him for going to the Badgers. It is a stable, good program versus the unknown of Fred. And honestly, do you think he would have stayed after the first three shitshow years of Fred? Chucky would fit in well with THIS version of Nebrasketball. Not sure he would be interested but I’d love to see him (and Traudt) come home. That’d fill two big holes.

UConn is a fixture in the top 10 NET and KenPom and they are 6th in the Big East. They have a winning record vs quad 1 but that still surprises me that they stay that high.

Damn, is that a George’s Niang clone? Even looks a bit like him. I would love to have this kid in the front court paired with Rice.

Now if our football team can emulate our hoops team’s success against Wisconsin everything will be good.

Do we have a shot here? Sounds like some big players are involved.

It’s doubtful KT will sniff the NBA, but him not playing more before the injuries is one of the things that irritated me about Fred. I could tell from watching Tominaga that he was a very heady player and did a lot of the little things right. Always moving, ball never stuck when he had it, good passer. But one mistake and he was banished to the bench for the rest of the game. At the same time Bryce had a leash about 10 miles long. The injuries (and Wilcher being a hot mess) forced Fred’s hand in playing Keisei. I’ll be honest…I can give a crap if a kid has NBA potential. You don’t need that to be a great college player.
