  1. CBI bound or no tournament at all I think is the only option for this team, maybe another tourney I am missing cause NIT is out of the picture so is NCAA barring a miraculous B1G tourney where we win it all. Lets see how we do against CBI competition.

    Unless the win the big ten or start there own tourney. They are done. 14-17\18 won't get you any more games. Btw 105 teams have winning records.

     

    There is a 4th tourney. The "Vegas 16".

    Next year? Are we not planning to win the B1G tourney and secure out automatic bid? :lol:

     

    The 11 seed is actually the best possible draw for us at this point. Wouldnt be surprised if we win 2-3 in the conference tourney

    Are we going to play in the women's bracket ?

    I don't think so mcgiggles....

    It would be Christmas miracle if we win one game next week. 3 would take an act of God.

    Miles is officially coaching for his job next year, right?....

     

    I think he would need two more years like this to be on the hot seat. He has the excuse of using a ton of freshman in his rotation who didn't have college experience. But that doesn't explain the lack of effort which has made most of this season unwatchable.

    If next year is more of the same I could still seeing him getting one more year after that, but not two... no way. Of course, that's just my opinion.

    That is what I meant. I think if he has two more years like this he will be let go.

    He finishes under 500 again he won't see the second year.

    Ask yourself this...if Miles was a jerk/dick/rough with the media...would he be on the super hot seat?

     

    No, he wouldn't because to two factors.:

    1) It's a football school

    2) The program was in total disarray when he arrived. It is being built pretty much from scratch and that doesn't happen overnight.

    We are no better then the doc days. A .500 team. I ask you....how long does it take to turn around team ? 5-6-10 years. We will be going on year 5 and it's no better.

    I think there are a couple factors to take into consideration when comparing the last several coaches (frankly you can go back to the 1960s or forever if you want to as it is almost all the same). The Big Ten is much tougher conference in basketball than the Big 8 and Big 12 were in my view. Therefore, I believe it is arguable that the Husker mens' BB team is better overall than those of the past years under Tim's reign. However, the competition is tougher so the results are about the same in terms of wins and losses, etc. I think most of the discussion on making the move to the Big Ten was that it would be better for the football program and help the baseball and likely be tougher in the women's sports particularly VB. Men's BB would suffer the most and arguably it has but Miles has kept it from being too embarrassing.

     

    I was one who felt we didn't need to change coaches the last time because I didn't believe it would matter. Absent hiring a big name big time coach, Nebraska will NEVER have a top twenty or ten BB program. Nebraska has NEVER won a championship in BB in its history. Sadly, I don't believe it will and Tim Miles is not going to change that.

     

    If you are BB fans, then you should simply get on board with Tim Miles and cheer for the team, win or lose. If I were the AD and it came time to let Tim go, I would recommend that mens BB be discontinued altogether in favor of additing some other sport or simply adding the budget to the football program. I am a Husker fan die hard and BB is interesting enough. But it is futile to continue changing coaches when it won't matter in the big picture. The results will be the same. Nebraska produces practically no top notch BB talent and until we have a couple local guys come along with NBA all star talent and give the team a major boost, we are destined to remain losers.

     

     

    Your post would make some sense (ok, no it wouldn't, but I would give you a C+ for trying) if Tim was beating teams outside of the big 10. Tim is .488 against teams outside the Big 10. That stat alone blows your theory out of the water!

     

    The stat is in the first post.. This isn't rocket science!

     

    and to the rest of your post.. All I can say is that it is probably the silliest post I have read!

    The 1994 hoops team would like to show you there conference championship trophy when you have the time.

  7. Tim miles is 61-64. About to be 61-65/66. Take away his 9-1 run from two years ago he will end up 52-65 after 4 years, one might say we have regressed. He has done nothing that doc, Barry or any other coach that has come here and failed. I'm not impressed by this year team. The team has showed no improvement. We have a poorly built team, no meat, muscle or inside presence, no outside shooters that will spread the court.

     

    Maybe these freshman will mature over the off season and we will right the ship and we will sail of into better days.

     

    if we don't win at least 18 games next year, he's needs to go.
