Doc's two-year plan...

The size and athleticism is there. But it's a lot of raw talent that needs to be shaped into a winner. Sadler has two years to do it.

 

Yes, two. If Sadler is going to build this bunch right, the Huskers are going to take some lumps this year. Chemistry takes time. Leadership development does, too. And when Standhardinger joins the mix, deciding how and when to utilize his shooting skills, will take time.

 

The Huskers are a true melting pot. Every kind of background you could imagine. Prep school kids, high school sleepers, former football players. Every corner of America, plus three international players. Just imagine what happens if Angolan Vander Joaquim shows up next year.

 

Sadler's a master motivator and holds his own with a white board, but it's going to take time to figure out to push each of his players' buttons. His most interesting project is Diaz, a talented, mild-mannered kid who will have to mix it up with stronger, bigger bodies. Sadler knows how to get Anderson or McCray's attention for sure. How will he do it with Diaz?

Whatever time he gets is up to TO...I'd give him at least 3 or 4 years based on what he's done so far and the sorry prospect of starting over with someone new, but he needs to show something THIS YEAR. We have plenty of talented players to bust a move right now. I'm really tired of hearing these excuses. Other coaches have had just as many problems and overcome them...there's no reason Sadler can't.
