    Exceedingly well-deserved.  Lost Albrecht, Hunter, Holman and Townsend off the court, and Hildebrand from the coaching staff.  Despite that, he turns a team with two Seniors and four underclassmen and a very inexperienced Asst. Coach into a juggernaut in November and December, and got three points away from a second consecutive national championship. 

     

    It's a crock he didn't win it last year, too.  Mary Wise coaches in the SEC, which the fourth-place Big Ten team would dominate year in and year out. Last year all Cook had to do was replace two coaches - Chris Tamas and Dani Busboom - and figure out how to replace the Rolfzen twins and Justine Wong-Orantes, and all he did then was win the Big Ten and another national championship.

     

    Presuming Reyes sticks around to next season, Cook has this team positioned to be the preseason #1, and frankly they're going to be a terror on the court. 

     

    I'm on the list for season tickets. Wondering what chance i have of getting the call.

    He was a 4 Star- then dropped to a 3 Star soon after he committed. How is that possible. Guy is a stud 

    I've got to think he will be bumped back to a 4 - star.  He plays football in North Jersey against amazing competition.  Those private schools in the area get kids form the trip-state area, probably charge 20k a year to go there, and have about 4k boys attending.  They get the cream of the crop.

    Yeah. The weather was garbage and we were just focused on getting to our seats, so when we got up there, I thought I recognized that guy but I couldn't place him.  Then a good friend sat right next to me on the other side and I chatted with her for a while, and it wasn't until a few minutes later that it clicked that you had six tickets and that was probably someone from HuskerBoard.

     

    We chatted a bit, talked about how awesome you are, and in general had a good time. He's good people.

    Mav is swell guy.  If he ever has tickets available again he should just contact us directly.  No need to ask everyone. :D

  4. Manual, metered or timed system? How hard is your water? Realistically for a good system you could be looking at 2500+ though you could get a system installed for as little as 500 but it really depends on what you are looking for, the hardness of your water and the size of your home.

    Would a plumber be able to tell me this?

     

    Home is about 3,500 sq ft

    University of Nebraska-Lincoln police cited a Nebraska football player for possession of marijuana on Friday afternoon.

    According to a UNL police report, true freshman wide receiver Keyshawn Johnson Jr. was cited for possession for less than one ounce of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia.

  6. Clearly a way to get more people to attend Friday Night Lights. Why? Because it works. A guy named "Bookie" attended last year and fell in love with Lincoln because of it.

    “I think what we’ve learned over our time here is the support in this state and fans nationally, the support they give the team is so classy and positive,” Van De Riet told Land of 10 a few weeks ago. “And then you start to realize when you see people engage with recruits just the general fan and the impact that has on everything, that’s something that we really like.”

  7. Nebraska's weight coaches conceived a competition called "The Nebraska Way," that established built in leadership voted on by the team. The leaders then drafted their teams and are keeping points based on academics, community service, with the champions receiving a prize at the start of fall camp. Riley said it has helped with accountability. "I think the kids like it," he said.

  8. I feel like there was a press conference thread for this.

    As I have said many times, many important details should have their own thread to discuss in detail. I, like many casual members, are not going to weed through a giant be everything megathread to catch the latest news. I do not care at all if there are giant threads at all. To each his own, but if a member would like to break down a specific detail or comment of which someone said, they have every right to do so without fear of being called out. Simply don't reply.
