Rahmir was our best blocking back last year. That is why you saw him on 3rd down or obvious passing situations. You are correct about his receiving being the best out of our RB room. I don't know who the best back is but you can be sure Rahmir will be on the field the most out of the running backs because of his utility, and trust/ experience as Big ERN said. Anthony Grant is most likely the #2 back and Yant/Ervin will battle it out for reps as the #3 back. We also do not want to be predictable so rbs need to be able to do it all out of the back field. I also think we will have a clear 1-2 punch and not a lot of musical chairs like we saw last year. This will get the best guys touches and they will get in a rhythm.

Iowa is not harder to beat. We have played them closer than Wisconsin under Frost. They are more beatable and I think we are due for one against them. If you meant why is Iowa easier to beat. Look at the scores below. They are much closer to beating Iowa under Frost then Wisconsin. 2018: 31-28- Lost off a game winning field goal 2019: 27-24- Lost off a game winning field goal 2020: 26-20 - Nebraska was driving until a Martinez fumble at midfield 2021: 28-21- Nebraska was in the red zone and in scoring position to win/tie until a pick was thrown by Smothers. Under very unlikely we win, I have Wisconsin. We have only been close one year against them (2021) under Frost. They have dominated us at the line of scrimmage but we have hung around and put up yards against them. They have just been better than Nebraska. Defensively, Nebraska has struggled the most against Wisconsin outside of OSU. This is why Wisconsin is more difficult to beat.

I still see us as 4th in the West, which puts us middle of the pack. I think 7-5 retains Frost. Why? Because he will be 5-5 versus p5 competition. The other two games he is expected to win. I think for every bad loss he has this year (Illinois or Indiana) he has to have a big win (Iowa, Wisconsin, OU). I am riding on the 7-5 train. If he can't do that this year we deserve to go out and get us a coach that can. The schedule does not get easier for him. You should find 5 wins against Northwestern Purdue Indiana Rutgers Illinois Minnesota Iowa Very unlikely Wisconsin OU Michigan

In Economics, the ceiling is the floor and the floor is the ceiling. Talking about price floors and price ceilings of course. I am of the belief that you cannot really predict how the season will go until after the Northwestern game. It can make a huge difference on the outcome of the season. Confidence is key as the team will come back fired up after a win or sluggish after a loss. We have lost six straight games and that needs to be ended right away so there is no doubt on the team we are better this year. A one score loss would be an absolute nightmare for this team.

There are so many ways/variables that could impact how the season goes. 1 Wisconsin- I believe it is Wisconsin's to lose again- last year they lost it by laying an egg against Minny. 2 Iowa- Think they find a way to sneak into the top 3 this year. Could be lower if they do not upset some East teams. 3 Purdue- Easier schedule helps and they may take a step back some. Do they get some spooky win this year at night? 4 Nebraska- Does Nebraska beat themselves? Could make us higher or lower. I have us in the middle. 5 Minnesota- No qb, a wildcard this year as they were close to making it to Indy last year. 6 Northwestern- Not very confident in them to do much better but they take a small step forward. 7 Illinois- Took some teams by surprise and that will not happen this year. In my mind, 2-5 is interchangeable. Heck, 3-7 could be in any order as well. My prediction is for Nebraska to go 7-5.

Well, its a stepp in the right direction to get it down to that number.

Yes, and most of the broadcast will be about the future of Westbrook, LeBron eating snacks, where is AD, and look at the new Lakers coach Darwin Ham. I mean it was bad the first game they did with LA. Panning to LeBron and co all the time. However, he is the money maker for them haha. Hope Bryce can build on his last game and continue to do well. He had a great debut!

Sadly, the Thunder kind of filled up and decided to go in another direction. OKC has too many wings and longer players they can use. The Thunder are my favorite team and I was very hyped to see Roby do some amazing things this year. The Spurs will be a great fit for him to develop and learn from coach Pop while they rebuild with a younger core. I think he will excel and wonder how he will respond when Pop gets on him for making a mistake. At the very least, he has the best coach in the league coaching him and that can take his game to another level.

This is not the end to expansion and one of the Power 5 conferences will fold. I would expect Power 4 Conferences, a next 2 conferences and the rest. Buckle up and enjoy the ride. If the B1G expands anymore we could take Notre Dame and probably Kansas or an ACC dark horse. Power 4 1 Big Ten 2 SEC 3 Big 12 4 ACC Next 2 5 AAC 6 Mountain West G4 7-10/ The remaining conferences

He is also on a four year deal still. The Nets can get an absolute haul for him. The other catch is they have all the cards so they can drive up his value by leaking things to reporters. I think he ends up a Phoenix Sun. They can give a big haul for him while keeping CP3, Book, Johnson, and other guys. They could also sign a few vet minimums to fill out their roster. Outside of Phoenix, it would be Miami, Minnesota, possibly Portland or Chicago. Memphis has a lot of assets, but I'm not sure they want to trade all of them to have Ja and Durant. The ripple effect is going to be huge because after Durant is traded, Kyrie is next on the block. The Nets could still get a solid team out of trading both guys.

It was a fun series to watch. I wish it would have went to 7 but I believe the Celtics just ran out of gas. I would love to see a Buck-Warriors Finals before Curry is done. That would be a fun watch in the future. I believe they could easily make it back next year. I wonder if Lebron moves to another team to try and not let Curry beat him in number of Championships.

Nice landing spot for him!

I am not sure if there is a perfect landing spot for Bryce per se. However, the best fit for him in my mind is the San Antonio Spurs. They are a young team that is rebuilding and they have proven time and again that they can develop players. He would also be getting coached by one of, if not the best coach in the league. The proven track record will give him his best shot at making it in the league for a long time. Another team would be the Golden State Warriors as he would learn to move without the ball and play together. He would get some time on that team as they like to rest their starters during the year.

I do not think this will affect Bryce at all but there will only be 58 picks this year as 2 teams will be forfeiting their second round picks. Miami for tampering with Lowry and Milwaukee for leaking the Boban trade before it happened. They also got a better option in Holiday in a later trade. This year you will only hear 58 players called on draft night. I do not think Bryce's brother Trey makes a roster or gets signed to an NBA team, but I could see him in the G-League or overseas.

As a Packers fan I was really excited we got him. He will be a practice player but will have ample opportunity to get called up with injury issues in our WR room. Rodgers throwing him the ball will bring out his full potential as he won't be getting over/under thrown. The number one thing newer receivers need is the trust of AR 12 or he will not throw your way unless you are completely open.

Also, Loensor is recruiting Kadyn.

Not official yet. But a name to watch is South Alabama Associate Coach Adam Howard. He is a defensive guy that can recruit and is definitely someone we could use to get these guys playing better defense. At South Alabama he used match up zones and put in some full court pressure on makes. Should be interesting to see what he can do defensively IF he is hired. https://usajaguars.com/sports/mens-basketball/roster/coaches/adam-howard/1884

Actually, he has only played 1.5 years of college ball because he enrolled early. So it will be his third school after completing 1.5 years of school. That is crazy to think about. He will be a sophomore at his third school.

nvm

I did not watch any NDSU basketball. But, according to the Real Gm site below he is slated as a small forward. He could potentially play point guard if need be. However, we need a Cam Mack like distributor to be in win now mode. Sam will still start at the 2 or 3, hopefully the three and Trey comes back. https://basketball.realgm.com/ncaa/conferences/The-Summit-League/32/North-Dakota-State/312/depth-charts

This is a very big pick up. He could play a few positions for us and will fit well in Hoiberg's system. Many tournament caliber teams were interested in getting him and picked the Huskers because he wants to elevate the program. He is a high IQ player who is not going to be a Teddy Allen and look to volume shoot/score. He will play through the system and get his points through the offense. I would say he is definitely a B1G caliber starter at the 2 or 3 and can average double figures here. If Trey and Walker come back we definitely have something going for us with experience. Nebraska could still use a point guard similar to Cam Mack who can be a distributor and still get to the hoop. Another big wing or 4 would help as I think Lat is gone and that will fill out the roster. Hopefully, the new staff member can bring a guard with him and then the staff fill the 4 spot with a plug and play guy in the portal to help the team in a must win year.

He was talking about Trev Alberts as TA. Tommy is an OC at Lincoln NorthStar High School.
