Like most freshmen he has good games & bad ones. Last night was a bad one. He's had much better games against other B1G teams. There are things he needs to get much better at, but the current staff will work on those things with him for the rest of the season and through the off season. Unlike previous staffs, I have faith that players will improve during their time here.

If he's planning to sign in November he would probably commit sometime this summer. If he is willing to wait until the late signing period (May '21) he could wait until after next season - March of '21 or later.

I won't hold my breath, but will keep my fingers crossed...

O/U is 145.5 on ESPN right now. Was 145 this morning.

He left Nebraska because he didn't want to play as an undersized 5, but then didn't spend his transfer/redshirt year working on his ball handling or outside shooting. He was playing about 11 minutes a game and averaging 3.4 points & 3.4 rebounds per game & hadn't taken a three all season.

Still is on ESPN & O/U is 131.

I'd say 8 easy, probably 9 will have really good cases. Teams 10 & 11 will have borderline cases.

Over under is 139. That means the bookmakers think OSU will score nearly 80 points when they haven't scored over 60 in their last four games.

Someone who can make free throws. What a novel concept.

A new kind of beer?

If his shot isn't falling it affects his whole game and his shot hasn't fallen since he got back from suspension (even in warm ups).

I found him. He's in section 117. Took a pic but it's too big to upload.

Iowa opens as a 7.5 point favorite

I saw it at 2.5 last night on ESPN and 3.5 earlier. Apparently all the money is going on Rutgers.

I'm not sure Arop will leave. He had to know coming in that he needed to work on shooting and strength and probably wouldn't play much. He really should have red shirted this year.

Huskers missed two free throws in the last minute & gave up an offensive rebound with two seconds left and fouled the rebounder who made both free throws to tie it.

OWH has a nice article about the three sit out transfers. Not sure if it's behind the pay wall or not - probably is since it's interesting.

Clearly everyone is exited about this game...

Does anyone know that Green did? I haven't heard anything.

I'm pretty sure almost no one wanted Royce White after his off-court issues at Minnesota, but Hoiberg didn't have any issues with him at ISU. Hopefully it will work out the same way.

So far no road team has one any of the "early" B1G games. MSU plays at Northwestern on Wednesday and if Northwestern wins, the entire conference will be 1-1.

Me too. I seem to remember that during preseason practice they were talking about how much & how hard he dunked.

Holy cow... could his neck be any longer?

I wouldn't be completely surprised to see Burke leave as a grad transfer - was recruited by a different coach to a different system.

He's basically the 9th guy in an 8 man rotation.
