Borchardt is averaging 18 minutes a game (skewed upward since the injury to Copeland, no doubt), Harris 11 minutes, Thor 9 minutes and Trueblood 5. The 5 starters? All over 30 minutes a game. It's being proven that there wasn't any reason why Borchardt couldn't have averaged 18 minutes all year spelling both Roby and Copeland, or why Thor and Trueblood couldn't have gotten 10-12 minutes a game to give Watson, Allen and Palmer some breathers. Harris is the one exception because he was sick, but still; if you take 2 minutes away from each of the five starters, who knows how deep the bench could have gotten (or how prepared for Copeland's injury they might have been).

So this all just really speaks to how it wouldn't have mattered anyway and Miles just isn't that great of a coach?

I mean I respect the heck out of the guy for giving it his all but he's consistently been outcached a lot in his tenure here despite getting some really talented players to Lincoln.

He just doesn't have that it factor that could potentially make Nebraska a perennial conference contender instead of a fun, scrappy underachiever.

Update: Trueblood is now +48 over the last 3 games.
