Husker no ka oi

On this day in history a chair was thrown. Let’s hire a BK.  Hmmmm

Not McShane but this is pretty cool:

Had no idea memorial stadium held 92,000 fans back in the 80's. Just a slight stretch of the truth.

 

 

Elliot will basically have to be Adrian Peterson 2.0 to be worth a #4 overall draft choice for him.

Exactly!

Baltimore tried to trade up to 4 for Zeke, which would have probably given Dallas another 3rd round pick, but Bosa, Zeke, and Ramsey would have all been off the board by pick #6.

Baltimore's GM came out after Round 1 that he was trying to trade up to 4 for Ramsey. Who knows if he was just making things up after the fact.

I'm sure Zeke will be very good at Dallas, but Dallas has so many holes that need to be filled long-term, that I don't think RB was the best choice. Especially when Stephen Jones said after round 1 that they were drafting Elliot for 1 contract (5 years). When choosing at #4, I would hope teams are drafting a cornerstone guy who can be there for 8-10 years.

For that last 3 years, the cows have drafted perfectly. Just when you think the jones might have figured it out , they inform you they haven't.

Jerry jones is an idiot. Never seen on guy botch a draft as bad as he did.

Lol my "account got hacked" bs. That's what you say when you realize you eff'd up. So this "person hacked his phone, the hacked his tweeter account. Amazing.

I doubt any huskers go b4 the 3rd at the earliest.

tOSU already has 2 5*s, 7 4*s, and 3 3*s for a #1 ranking, I think they've got the momentum.

Texas for years always had a top 3 class. They won like one championship in those years. Ranking for recruits means nothing to me. Players develop in different ways.

He's doing the smart thing here. He's seeing where he could land, and can gain a lot of insight on what he needs to improve on if he does decide to come back to NU.

He will land in turkey or the Philippines. He's no where near ready for the nba.

If you can't recruit at least one big in 3 years, that may tell you something.

If you can't recruits big then you better recruit some damn good 3 point shooters. Spread the floor and play up tempo style.

Yori's a meanie just like Pelini

You could be the next great rapper

Oregon 5 years ago was Nebraska. Now look at them. If miles can't get to 18 wins next year. My thoughts are Aloha. We are no better then doc days at this point.

So...maybe Miles made a huge mistake letting him go? I mean...he was a top 150 recruit. Is this on Miles for not developing him?

The dude needed about 30 pounds on him

For him to be effective in a power conference. You can develop all you want but he needed size. That's eating and the weight room.

While Hammond maybe tall. He's stick figure that needs about 30 more pounds to be effective down low.

Smdh. Hahaha.

Looking good since the last timeout

Interesting. Huskers starting the game with there scoring issues. 4 points 5 mins.

Don't know what to take away from this game. Is Rutgers that bad ?, is this the best neb can play ?? All I know is stop taking so many 3's. You guys are atrocious at them. At least the losing streak is over.

 

Well neb should start there ineptness here shortly. Can't shoot 75% all game.

 

Just waiting for it. Probably in the 2nd half. Because you know, nebrasketball.

Nope is happening now. 25 points in 9 mins, 6 points in 6 mins. Nice little 7-2 run after that, back to 14 pt lead

Well neb should start there ineptness here shortly. Can't shoot 75% all game.

I'm sure after the Iowa game he has crossed neb off his short list.

 

 

Unfortunately it looks like this season will be a "wash" and we will just have to hope we can get some good recruits coming in and build a team that will have success long term. I'd say you have to wait until this year's freshman class is seniors before we can really give Tim Miles a "grade".

 

In the meantime it would be nice if so-called Husker fans would just support the team and get rid of this entitled attitude like the team owes you something. Ever since PBA got built a lot of those type of fans that previously only followed football before are now "basketball fans". Take your entitled attitude and leave it in memorial stadium. Our "fanbase" can be so annoying at times.

 

So, you equate question the coach/being unhappy with the coach, as not supporting the team?

Not so much the questioning of the coach, but the attitude a lot of fans have the like the team owes them something. This knee jerk reaction of talking about firing a coach every time we have a bad stretch gets old. That's all. Just go enjoy the games and don't be such a spoiled fan base if things aren't going our way. Look where that same type of attitude has the football team. Our fanbase is a joke.

Typical game for neb. Score 12 points in 4.5 mins then score 10 in the next 17 mins. No center, no pg, no spot up shooters. Not getting any better, as miles didn't recruit any. Can someone tell me why we left doc go ?? I can't tell the difference.

 

 

 

 

 

Well, regardless of how this game plays out, it is very clear in year 4 of Tim Miles we are still a long long ways from top 20

 

It'll never cease to amaze me the kind of expectations Husker fans put on it's basketball team. Going .500 is a good year for NU.

 

They will NEVER be a consistently good team. Never.

lol, yeah the expectations of having a good team. Why will NU never be better than .500?

That's not what I said. I said they will never consistently be a good team. Meaning, a top 30 team.

I said .500 is a good year for NU not that they can't be better than that on occasion.

saying .500 is a good year is implying they can't do much better, which is why you consider .500 a good year.

 

regardless, why? Why will NU never "consistently" be a good team?

You don't get to be any more Husker as a fan of all the sports at NU than I am. However, I felt that rather than building the basketball arena, we should have first rebuilt Husker footbally to a perennial power again. TO spearheaded this basketball 'revival' thing when one needs to be realistic. Nebraska has NEVER EVER been good in basketball and NEVER EVER won a single championship in all the years of basketball since the game was invented. In my view, Nebraska NEVER EVER will win such a championship in men's basketball. I cannot tell you WHY they will not but after many many decades of playing, with multiple 'investments' in arenas, coaches, etc, etc., etc, it just is not going to happen. Legend Bob Devaney built the Devaney Center to 'bring basketball up to where it was supposedly supposed to be! Of course it never happened. Nebraska as a State has produced a very tiny handful of 'great' basketball players over the many years, almost NONE of which played for DONU. We've hired Moe Iba, son of a basketball coaching legend. He produced Nebraska's most competitive teams in my opinion ever. Still, unable to win a championship and eventually even he was asked to depart. Danny Nee was an above average 'sideline screamer' and recruited a handful of very good players but never enough to get us truly near being competitive.

I have read many comments suggesting Tim Miles was going to get it done! Now, the posts on this board are virtually all NEGATIVE after a brief time. We read about recruits but frankly, until and unless the State of Nebraska produces two 'superstar' high school players with all the talent, skills, height, etc. to take a team to the final four, Nebraska will NEVER EVER win a basketball title in the Big Ten. The Big 12 was tough enough with KU, OU, UT, etc. But the Big Ten is doubly tough. Nebraska did not join the Big Ten to help its chances to win the men's BB trophy. It ain't happening! Basketball in Nebraska is basically something for the athletic kids to do to stay in shape during the winter months.

Never won anything. 1993 team would like to have a word with you. They will bring there big 8 trophy with them. Didn't doc win an NIT championship too. But yeah that's it.

This team is mentally incapable of playing a full 40 mins.

This is how dumb this team is. 14 mins left in the game. Shields has yogi on him. Shields as foot on him. Instead of posting yogi up, he gives up the ball and runs to the 3pt line on the other side. After watching that play, I've come to terms we are good for 2 more wins this year and shields is not that smart.

I'd love to see who rated morrow a top 60 recruit.

That was a pretty decent half. Scary. Don't think they can continue to shoot 55%. Will need hit the boards hard. Didn't have one of there dreaded 2 points in 7 min drought.
