huskeraddict Posted November 5, 2013 Author Share Posted November 5, 2013 Huskers get the non-existent W, 91-60. Shields leads scoring with 16 points on 7-7 shooting. Leslee Smith and Tai Webster finish with 12 each. Petteway with 10. Fuller with 10. Pitchford with 9. Parker with 7. Rivers with 5. Tyrance and Vucetic with 3. Menke and Peltz with 2. Kye Kurkowski was the only Husker to play and not register a point. Quote Link to comment
redout22 Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Gave up a lot of points in that second half but it is preseason Quote Link to comment
huskeraddict Posted November 5, 2013 Author Share Posted November 5, 2013 Gave up a lot of points in that second half but it is preseason Lots of bench clearing too. Plus the fouls were out of control. The new handcheck rule is going to be worse than the targeting penalties because it will affect every single game. Quote Link to comment
Lyons in the Sea of Red. Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 We will struggle defensively this year, and the new way of officiating is going to kill us. Quote Link to comment
Comish Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Attacking the rim will almost always result in a blocking call, so we better be prepared for it. Just happy that we have more than one 3 point threat this year so driving and dishing gives us some options besides only Ray. Quote Link to comment
Landlord Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Can someone explain the new handcheck rule to me? Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 "It requires fouls to be called when such action occurs against the player with the ball," Hyland said. These rules include: • Keeping hand or forearm on an opponent. • Putting two hands on an opponent. • Continually jabbing an opponent by extending an arm or placing a hand or forearm on the opponent. • Using an arm bar to impede the progress of a dribbler. NCAA director of officials John Adams told ESPN.com that it will take time for coaches, players and officials to adjust. The changes could well result in an increase of fouls early in the season and also could force star players to the bench with foul trouble. "The best way to increase scoring and make the game better is to create situations to get more shots," Kansas coach Bill Self said. "More free throws doesn't make the game better." Adams is aware that the early portion of the season could feature an excess of whistles and lengthier games. But he is optimistic that by midseason an improvement in overall play will be noticeable. "Touching a dribbler is not a foul," Adams said. "Keeping a hand on them is a foul, putting two hands on them is a foul, constantly jabbing at them is a foul." ESPN Article Quote Link to comment
Lyons in the Sea of Red. Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Basically if you touch them you're getting a whistle. It's dumb, and will take several years before it begins to get any better. Coaches at younger levels have to teach defense with feet even more now. They are trying to create higher scoring games like the NBA, but I think it's going to take at least 5 years before that starts to show at the college level. It's completely changing what players have grown into and made habit. Quote Link to comment
Comish Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 So now I see that the Haymarket Parking (which was $5 for Monday nights game) is $10 for Friday night's game. Probably not going to break anyone, but seems like a heavy-handed way to penalize the fans who are already paying seat licenses, paying for season tickets; paying inflated concession prices and still get a brisk and lengthy walk to the PBA. Does it ALWAYS have to be................how much can we gouge the people who are supporting this program? Quote Link to comment
