But since you brought it up, Erstad winning the conference last year would seem to be better than any of our football coaches for the last 20 years. Solich won the conference in '99. Anyways, if you don't see the parallels, then I can't help you. I think we've hijacked this thread enough, though. Quote Link to comment
RedSavage Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 If we're comparing coaches, Miles is a lot more like Riley than anyone else. 1 Quote Link to comment

seaofred92 Posted April 9, 2018 Author Share Posted April 9, 2018 Quote Now, Hunter will go out and recruit for a brand name that resonates nationwide. “When I went up to UConn,’’ he said, “once you walk into their practice facility, the amount of NBA guys and great players who have been through there and winning a national championship four years ago — and they have four of those — is really impressive. “It’s not easier there because you have to work no matter where you are. But the brand name and the tradition of winning there will be good to work from. I’m excited about it.’’ http://www.omaha.com/huskers/mens-basketball/assistant-coach-kenya-hunter-leaving-nebraska-basketball-to-join-dan/article_3462db21-8a27-5d28-88f4-d9a7b998e44d.html I'm torn. Part of me is sad for Nebraska but part of me is really fired up to see what he can do for my Huskies to return us back to the top of college basketball Quote Link to comment
HuskermanMike Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 (edited) Rashon Bruno with a comeback story? If Miles wants to stay he needs a recruiter who can teach post moves and coach some offense. We desperately need an X's and O's guy. We are still offensively challenged despite having so much offensive firepower. Whoever it is will need to be paid top dollar as a lead assistant because I believe Kenya Hunter was the lead assistant under Miles. Another name could be John Thompson III if he wants an assistant job. He also has that Georgetown connection that Miles so desperately likes and he would be a good recruiter. He definitely could teach guys some post moves as he has worked and developed some really good post players. He can also be that offensive bench coach that I believe Miles needs.

teachercd Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 JTIII would be interesting but I can't see him taking an assistant job. Quote Link to comment
pearljammer Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Losing Hunter sucks. I'll admit I'm the biggest Tim Miles honk there is, but this smells fishy to me. I hope this doesn't start a landslide of other things. Hopefully we can bring in another good recruiter and X's and O's guy. I truly believe that we have the talent to win a couple of tourney games next year, but we need everyone coming back and continue bringing in recruits. Not going to lie, this makes me nervous about the rest of the off season. Quote Link to comment

Minnesota_husker Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 First casualty to losing Hunter with loss of Xavier Johnson. Quote Link to comment
pearljammer Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 I just hope this isn't the beginning of more bad off season news. Quote Link to comment

I don't want him to coach Nebraska but it would be nice to have a coach on the sidelines that at least knew what he was doing 1 Quote Link to comment
