    I’m going, & I’d forgotten Colorado was in the Sweet 16 last year. Should be a good test…

    Actually they only return two starters and are picked to finish 8th in the PAC 12. Still better than where we are picked to finish in the B1G. They do have some talent to replace the starters, many of whom played last year as freshman. They have a powerful & crafty returning starting 6’6” center who should be there leading scorer.

  4. What will our rotation look like next year?

    From a small sample size:


    Verge is our best ball handler. Creates well with the ball and can get a reasonable shot off any time. Very quick. Out of control occasionally but not often. Hit some nice 3s. To me, big upgrade over Delano.

     

    Keon is Uber athletic. But needs some time to build his basketball IQ. He’ll get there but it may take a good part of the season.

     

    Trey, Lat, Eduardo and Derrick all have stepped up their games.

     

    Bryce is smooth for a freshman. Athletic and makes it look effortless. In a small sample size looks like everything we hoped for. Not sure what else to say.
     

    Wilhelm was a surprise. One would never know he was a freshman. Hustles, right place at the right time, good defender/rebounder and smooth 3 point shot. He may not start early in the season but I wouldn’t be surprised if he played starting minutes as the season wears on. His free throw shooting should ensure he plays the 5 late in close games.

     

    Keisie was a surprise. He will be a fan favorite. Plays hard every second on the floor. Good defender with quick hands. More athletic than expected but not elite athleticism. Very crafty player. Fun to watch. Smile on his face the entire time. Will hit a shot when open but still finding his shot against long athletic players like we have now. He’ll get there.

    It's about getting permission. In FSU's case, the university worked with the Seminole tribe to make sure they had permission and that they had the imagery, history and other representations correct without causing offense.

     

    The best example for Warriors was Arapahoe High School in Denver. AHS worked with the Arapahoe tribe to develop images, logos, mascots and other "traditions" that the tribe eventually approved for use by the school and its athletic teams. 

    I’m Scandinavian and am deeply offended with the use of the Viking name and logo. My ancestors were peace loving people, not village ravaging savages, as typically portrayed. I expect to be asked for permission and to be given reparations. 😊

    Is this one of those "testing the waters" where he can come back or is he gone/gone?

     

    I assume he is pretty much gone but just not sure if he tested out poorly could he come back a year?

    He said he is preserving his eligibility.

    I wonder if Daum would have received a lot more offers if he had played in Omaha growing up.

    Daum’s story is interesting. Even in his freshman year in college he and his coach thought he would go nowhere. That was the point where Daum dedicated himself and built himself for into the player he is today.

  23. Will Roby be back next year?

    Not necessarily true

    I read an analysis of guaranteed money based on draft position. The takeaway was that with a draft position any higher than 38 or 39, based on history, there would be little to no guarantee. And the final conclusion was, if there is no guarantee then Roby should just as well come back to Nebraska. Not certain how accurate this was but thought I would pass it on.

    Do you really think they told our only guy taller than 6-8 that he should leave without having any plans for the bigs? 

    It wouldn't surprise me if they didn't have a big locked down before cutting Heiman loose. Just because Brady is tall doesn't mean he can play the style HCFH wants to play. Sometimes you have to release those who don't fit to prove to those you are recruiting who do fit that there is playing time for them.
