seaofred92 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 https://www.btpowerhouse.com/2017/10/27/16527772/nebraska-huskers-basketball-tim-miles-coaching-hot-seat-big-ten Quote Miles will have his work cut out for him if he intends to keep his job. Nebraska was recently predicted to finish 13th in the Big Ten, only ahead of Rutgers. A brutal non-conference schedule that features Kansas, Creighton, Boston College, and North Dakota, among others awaits them too. For Miles, it does not help that he brings in a roster that lost four players to transfer and only has three seniors. Not to mention, the roster does not bolster any “eye-popping” talent although Miles believes Glynn Watson Jr. can be an All-Big Ten player. They did bring in Isaac Copeland from Georgetown, but he’ll need time to learn the system too. None the less, Miles is always optimistic, regardless of what the projections say. There are several factors working against Tim Miles and the Nebraska Cornhuskers in 2017-18. Perhaps the one positive note for Miles is that he is under contract with the Huskers until 2020. None the less, winning basketball games on a consistent basis, especially in conference play, will be a challenge. However, Tim Miles has proven he can accept and conquer challenges, see Colorado State and his first two seasons in Lincoln. As of now though, if Tim Miles wants to keep his job, it will be a steep hill to climb. 1 Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Brutal schedule. North Dakota even. If Miles current contract runs through 2020 he must have gotten an extension in the time since Eichorst didn't give him one a couple years ago. Quote Link to comment
teachercd Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Yeah, the North Dakota game being listed as brutal...so does that mean in the North Dakota papers they are saying that Nebraska is a cupcake? Quote Link to comment
ECisGod Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 North Dakota did win their conference last year & finished 22-10 (14-4). Yes, it was the Big Sky, but they did win it. Quote Link to comment
