I don't really think that his firing was just based on something that trivial. The evil AD that was in charge at the time wanted his own man in the position and he found a great "yes" man in Callahan. That's just my honest opinion, but that's why they call them opinions, it's just how I feel.

What was his firing based on then?

What was his firing base on then?

I would agree with that! I love coming to this board, but I get tired of the people that bicker back and forth. Grow up and just talk about the facts and celebrate the victories! GBR!!

good find, looks like he's a lefty He will probably need a little bit of work, but I do like his height and the fact that he's a lefty. It's a very good get for Miles! GO BIG RED!!!

Just give him time, and I think he will. I am staying optimistic and I think I like what I see from him so far. He has created more buzz about the program than there has been in a long time.

Notre Dame is always in the pre-season top 25. A 4-5 Notre Dame team can make it in to the top 25. For some reason, the polls love them….I just don't get the obsession.

……...

Give him some time and I think we can make some noise. I'm a little hesitant to make a bold prediction, but I like what I have seen so far!

I gave up trying to understand anything Callahan did a long time ago!

Let me summarize Nebraska basketball... LOL... nobody cares about Nebrasketball... Great fanbase! Actually, there are a lot of true Nebraska fans that do care about basketball. I really hope Miles gets the program turned around and then we will see some "fair weather" fans jump on board.

Beranek did play for Nebraska, but I would still like to see more Nebraska talent stay in state. Beranek worked his butt off when he played, and I guarantee we would see the same commitment from other Nebraska boys too.

I liked Doc, but it sounds like Miles is creating more of a buzz in one month than Doc did during his whole tenure. I was a little cautious of Miles at the beginning, but it seems like he is getting things going. I just hope he can keep up his momentum!

I agree that redshirting him makes sense. I fully expect to see a rough year of Husker basketball, but that has happened lately any way. I agree that it would be better for the future if they redshirt him, but who knows what they will do. The definitely need to add a few guys for next year though, and I'm excited to see what Miles might get!

I think this would be a great idea! You hear all the time about professional athletes that are broke because they couldn't manage their money. If I won the lottery right now, I wouldn't have to work another day in my life and I could make that money last for a very long time. It's all about moderation, but it's hard to expect young kids that are suddenly millionaires to be "smart" about their money when they haven't learned how to manage things properly. Maybe the NBA should start a program where they help teach these kids about money management!

I haven't heard anything on this, but I would think that they would consider following.

Well I mean Nebraska isnt exactly a powerhouse for basketball.. It's not, but we should still get at least some of the talent that comes from the state. Miles took a CSU team with 4 Nebraska kids to the tourney this year and Creighton made it with 5. The largest university in the state not being able to get any of the talent that does come around is pretty pathetic. I just don't think Doc put a lot of emphasis on recruiting in-state, which is a shame. Nebraska might be putting out talent like Kentucky had this year, but the state does have some good players that get overlooked. I hope Miles keeps looking in-state while he's recruiting.

I would agree with this statement! I hate to get my hopes up too much, but I am excited to see what he can do.

That would be great if he could help pull in some in-state talent. It seems like Miles was doing ok at CSU with some Nebraska boys on his team.

Is this kid the real deal? I am cautiously optimistic about Tim Miles. Maybe I just want to believe that Husker mens basketball can actually compete. I would love to know more about what Biggs' commitment might mean for the program.
