He's a JUCO from Arizona. Scarey thing is he's lost 30 pounds (probably more now that he's halfway through a season). His problem is he's not in shape. He's already said this summer he will stay in Nebraska to work on getting into better shape, he could turn into a monster if he hits the weights and treadmill all offseason.
I'm off to Lincoln. Do or die time for this team. There should be a pretty good crowd; if they have a good complete game and impress people they will probably have great crowds the rest of the year. If they disappoint, you can expect less than 9,000 at every game from here on out. Win tonight and things start falling into place. 14-4 (2-2) with a game Saturday that they will* win. Come home next week at 15-4 (3-2) to play a most likely ranked aTm team, which would no doubt draw a great crowd and real chance to make a statement. But it all has to start with a win tonight. I'm nervous.
* TTech is absolutely terrible. Nebrask WILL win that game...right? Right?
This post makes me wish I lived closer to Lincoln. I love the Skers and love basketball, but sadly I've never been to a Husker basketball game
