Well, he's the boss and still a new one, so there's going to be discontent.. until all slough off over time.
Having said that, the perception that he should have allowed Miles a three year contract extension (or more) instead of the one year, is largely unsaid but felt AND said by some.
I agree with those sentiments, about Miles. But, Moos has goals and his way of going about achieving those goals. People need to settle down and get to work on that.

He took ISU on a pretty good ride when he was there. I'd think he could recruit here as well as he did there.

Fred is going to have to persuade top rated recruits that Nebraska is the place to come to and be on the ground floor of a great basketball program on the upswing now.
Best of luck to him.

Mistake. The program is better now than when he began.
He should have received a three year contract moving forward.

Ugh. What a road to go down; that of bringing in a high profile (as in "good") basketball coach.. to Nebraska. Big bux.
Could such a guy in this day and age bring great players to our program? Could he make Nebraska something that it is not and will never be? A basketball school?
Jeesh.. give Miles his deserved three year contract and let him do his work. He'll likely grow into the Big Ten to 22 or more wins per season once he gets his assistants honed and on board. He'll make the NCAA dance regularly down the road.
Tim Miles is improving the program. Hiring someone like Hoiberg would be spinning our wheels.
Imo.

Sipple is quitting?
Nope. I've wished for that off and on over the years. But he has been there forever and is a UNL grad so... we're stuck with him.
Put on your hip boots and wade in to his articles.. there's often a point.

Definitely agree. Football is our bell cow and always has been.
But with the things you mentioned above I dont know why we cant have a respectable basketball program.
Basketball is an indoor sport- so please dont someone say the weather.
The basketball program might inch up a bit in respectability, but Nebraska will likely never be a Kansas or Duke, etc, in a perennial manner as they are, unless we can attract a coach who is two things: 1. Proven in a major conference, 2. Willing to leave an already proven bb program for .. a-hem, Nebraska.
The history of the football program is not a good analogy and we know why. The history of Nebraska compared to Kansas in football and basketball is pretty plain.
Perhaps 25 years from now.. when Omaha is 5.5 million people and Lincoln is 1.5 million. ??
Never say never, right? But you know what I mean.
In other words, remind us again: why fire Miles?
-
No matter the coaches on Moos's short list, who is going to want to come play basketball at Nebraska.. for very long? The same sort who goes to play football for Kansas?

I've changed my mind on this as the season has progressed, but I don't think you fire Miles if we win 22-24 games, even if we lose in the first round of the tourney. He's got some impressive talent coming in, and I really like where Thomas Allen's game is going. Next year is going to be really interesting, especially if Roby hangs around (which I think he will).
Moos seems to have his agenda, with the one year contract extension being basically the Big Hint. Honestly. This is not a basketball school, but T.M. is proving he has needed a talent upgrade and things are moving along pretty well.

So. Welp.. Miles is outa here no matter what. Hmm.

We absolutely need to be picky. All voters should be educated and picky about who deserves their votes.
Indeed. Hot on the educated. Read all sources, not just the ones that we might gravitate toward with our politics. All of it.

One of the best threads I've read. .. Okay, so I've only read two, but still.
No, nice to see a bit of research and knowledge and a lot of laughs. I can only offer that the past five years is only the past five years. Not a very long sample to declare a "warm weather prejudice" thingy.

Nebraska beat Seton Hall. Seton Hall beat Kentucky. Kentucky beat North Carolina. North Carolina beat Gonzaga. Gonzaga beat Duke. So...That means Nebraska is #1 in the country right.

Media darlings tend to look more formidable, as we become brainwashed.

Hopefully some better horses arrive soon and make everything tolerable.
I think that could make the difference for us as to the "righting the ship" attitude we've adopted. The offense will improve even more. The D will get some (please!) leaders, and away we go.

Ahhh... yes!

Pretty much so, yes.

Nice drive. Straight downfield, no threats to them from Nebraska. Running. Passing.
Now, can we meet that?

Gotta have the LBs play a good game if we want to win today. Their run zone blocking and covering TEs is crucial today. Also, no rain and wind would be nice.
The Iowa tight ends thing. Yeah.
