Agreed, he looks faster than 4.5.

The kid is playing a lot of ball and had to retake the tests. A lot is on his shoulders, he needs to buckle down and get his grades in order. I believe he is close and is waiting for his last test results. His priority appears to be basketball & not academics. I do not know if that is a good combinations. But I do believe he is the type player that could move our program to the next level.

Losing is one thing, but it's another to flush it down the toilet. Walking 3 batters is unacceptable. You learn to throw strikes in little league.

Only 2 first team, 1 second team & 3 3rd team. Of which, 3 were underclassman and no pitchers! # 7 goes to Peters, who got the sportsman award.

Biggs will not start at first, because he will be on suspension. I see Gallegos & Shields improving on last year. Gallegos, Shields, Pitchford, Rivers or Petteway, Webster or Biggs. Then we also have Smith, Parker & Fuller, so we could see a lot of combinations. I see Hawkins & maybe Parker or Vucetic red shirting. Regardless, we will have more debt than last season.

It has nothing to do with losing, but showing up to play. Listen to the coach! He said that the style of play is not where it needs to be and the young players have not had a chance to develop. We do not have depth and the injuries caused a bigger problem because of this. He is referring to hard nose baseball, something Anderson knew nothing about and these Sr. are too use to going through the motions. Too inconsistent all year

AMEN!

I truly believe we will be worse next year looking at the roster. It's just sad I do not know what you are looking at! Fact #1 - we only had 2 Sr. who made an above average contribution to this team. Fact 2 - 7 So & 2 Fr. had serious playing time this year. Fact #4 - a new recruiting class (Erstad's second). Fact 4 - the main part of this team is young and they will get better. The problem with this years team was due to the lack of meaningful contribution from this year's Sr. class.

agree

We need to get the second seed. With our poor bull pin, the bye is a must!

If Tom was still here he would be coming to NE. Tom had his share of thugs playing for him!

You need to put players on this team that know how to win. We have too many players that are use to losing and are ok with it.

I just do not understand all the walks with a big lead. It makes no sense. Its time to bring in a bunch of pitchers and let a few guys sit the bench or walk.

This game should have been won before the 9th. 2 missed bunts, pass balls by out catcher & too many left on base (lack of timely hitting).

I think it's harder to get bigs because there are less of them. You have a lot more competition from established programs for those kind of players. If you miss on a PG or Wing you still have options. For the big fella's that's not necessarily true. So I don't think it has to do with scheme or style. I think it has to do with numbers and winning. Facilities definitely help. Just my opinion. I agree! Quality big men are hard to find!

This question is too hard to answer right now. Nebraska did not have a big center for Miles to use. Almeida had bad knees and could not move and Ubel was a PF playing center. Both had their share of shots at times. I do believe he is looking for something that is more athletic. I also believe that we only seen a portion of Miles offense. Again, you can not judge his closing ability on the 4 PF/Cs we just lost. Don't forget Miller who decided to go to prep school, instead of play for NE. He is holding for a scholarship from MO or KS. Winning is the main key.

I agree, as he was a child playing amount men. The more athletic we get the less pressure he will see. He will get stronger and thrive in Miles offense.

What is crazy about questioning his ability to close? I am not saying Miles is a bad coach or a bad recruiter or anything like that.. but we have lost out on 4 big men. 2 i dont blame him on(Akoy- Out of our league/ Uchebo-got in way to late) I am not sharpening my pitchfork.. just bringing up a question. Sorry Minnesota, Your view of these 4 big men are different then mine. We had an uphill battle in getting any of these guys for one reason or another. I think Miles has shown something by even getting a couple of these guys to visit. Good big men are hard to fine. I also believe that it is way to early to judge Miles ability to close.

Sorry Minnesota, but this is a rediculous notion: Atewe had pressure from an AAU coach, Sai lives in AZ and we were too late in the game for Ucherbo. We might have great facilities, but winning will help us recruit. Kids want to play and they want to go to the Dance. I like that Miles is not in a big hurry to fill the schollies on the team. Because of Doc, he has to find D1 talent that want to play for NE. We cannot afford anymore transfers. This is his first true recruiting class. Last year, he just tried to fill holes and there were a lot of them. Lets give him a little time. I am one who believes that we will be better this coming year. Also remember that we have 1 Sr. and this will be their second year under a new regime.

It will take a little time to rebuild a winning team again. This team lacks solid pitching and power, but I trust that Darin will get thinks corrected in the next year or two.

Sorry, I am talking about the Fin, not Uchebo.

If he was that good, he would of had an offer. I do not think Miles will fill the schollie without it helping the team. There was also mention of a couple possible transfers. Its time to wait & see what happens next.

I am impressed with Indiana, as they have good pitching and can hit the ball. This is a good win and now we need to take the series!

The way I read the articles is that these transfers are waiting to get their scholarships released. My guess is that they would have to set out a year. It is going to take a few years to get this program turned around. We already have twice the bench we had this last year. I would think some kids will red shirt, so why not a transfer who will make our team better in a couple of years. Plus, he can practice this next year.

Different type of player than Atewe. He is a big strong post player. For Nebraska, he would be a team changer!
