Jacobsen next on transfer list?

We have 2 post players on our roster one will foul out if he plays an entire half the other has a bad back. Might have to go with 5 guards this year.

 
Looks like Jordy will have to average the 30 minutes a game like some he should as a true freshman.

Is the NCAA going to allow 10 fouls per player per game next year?

We lost two good players, that doesnt change the fact people were talking about this having the most "Stars" in years.

Now I think we lose Watson which makes this argument tougher, but if you go by highschool stars, Copeland, palmer, Gill, Watson, Roby and Jordy.

Not as much talent but still some talent.

"Most 'Stars' in years" got us the most losses in school history. Most are much more concerned with the latter than the former.

And now we've lost our top three rebounders and three of our top five scorers.

I am not saying we didnt lose good players, just saying we still have talent on this team.

It is unknown talent but Copeland and Palmer are both interesting additions.

 
“I support Michael in his decision to transfer,” Miles said. “Although I am disappointed, we’ve appreciated his hard work in our program over the last two seasons. Michael and I have had numerous discussions regarding his role and what position he would be playing for us in the future. After a lot of thought, Michael decided to find a new school. I understand and respect his decision.”

So for those trying to say that Morrow was trying to play a position that didn't fit his skills, we now have another player who is transferring in large part because he and Miles aren't on the same page as to their position and role on the team.

If one player has an issue with where they should be playing, might be the player's fault.

If several players have an issue with their positions/roles, the problem is likely ......

 
I don't have an issue with Miles using undersized guys at the 4 and 5 spots, if he played an uptempo offense with a bunch of awesome shooters. But, his offense is anything but that, and he prefers to slow things down and focus on defense.

That is why we are seeing guys like Jacobson and Morrow leave. They are asked to play out of position on defense and also play in a boring offensive style of basketball.

 
As one of the Husker media guys noted near the end of the season: bad three-point shooting, bad three-point defense, no stretch 4. Not a recipe for success in today's game.

 
Miles wants the guys to be team players, but it is hard to do that when he won't let you play a position that you think will help the team. Instead you are called out for not being a team player and stuck at a position you do not like, which in turn, will not develop you as a player. So instead of regressing you leave to find a better opportunity.

Yep! Small ball means lots of pressure defense...which they don't do.
