74Hunter Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 @RobinWashut: Moses Ayegba has committed to #Nebrasketball Meh. I'm not that impressed. Pretty much a 5 foul guy that didn't impress in a mid major conference, I highly doubt that he'll make an impact, or even get playing time in a top level conference. I hope I'm wrong.

Mid major conference? Up until this year he was on a team that played in the best basketball conference in the nation. Quote Link to comment

He will be beneficial if he can just play good defense for 15 min a game and allow Walt to play the 4. Quote Link to comment

I haven't seen any film on him so I can't really say one way or another how good he is. However, Nebraska is never going to be a place like Kentucky. We will never sign five 5-star recruits every year and be a place that always has it's pick of the litter so to speak. Of course we may get lucky and have a year or two where sign maybe one or two of those guys, but it will never be consistent. We will have to be the place that signs a few projects that turn out to be great players after a few years of coaching. Tim Miles will have to actually coach these guys up and develop them into great players fit for his system. From what I have seen, Moses is exactly that. A raw talent with some rough edges that needs to be rounded into shape. He has a lot of potential to grow from what I hear though, so I'm going to trust Miles on this one and be excited that we will have another big guy to work with. Quote Link to comment
StPaulHusker Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 He is a good player to bring in for 1 year. Which is this case. Shouldn't read much more into it than that. Quote Link to comment
HUSKER FREAK Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Wow, I am surprised by some of the comments. Good get for Miles and company 1 Quote Link to comment

Mid major conference? Up until this year he was on a team that played in the best basketball conference in the nation. That was the old big east, and iirc, the guy didn't play there much. The new big east is nothing more than a mid major no matter how bad Creighton fans think otherwise. I hope that Suh and gbr93 are correct and I'm wrong. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Robin Washut @RobinWashut 9h Moses Ayegba was ranked the No. 95 player in the 2010 class, meaning #Nebrasketball technically just landed another #Rivals150 commit. Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 This is one that I have to trust Miles on. Looking at last year's statistics, it looks like he played in more games than any other center. It looks like he and Smith started off the year splitting time but then all of a sudden Smith stopped playing around Jan 4th. I'm assuming he got hurt. Moses's minutes picked up from there but his scoring didn't. Quote Link to comment
Blackshirts007 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 We don't know how he will end up in a different system and different style of basketball. Walt didn't get any playing time period at Florida and wasn't ranked at all and turned out pretty vital to our success. This guy could give us 8-12 solid minutes a game. Quote Link to comment
SouthLincoln Husker Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Ayegba is N! This is the defensive shot blocking big we needed! 2 more schollies left to fill for 2014. Quote Link to comment
Minnesota_husker Posted April 24, 2014 Author Share Posted April 24, 2014 I hope we add Deng Deng and Cornish(SG who was released from his letter at Tennessee). I think we are young and if Deng Deng is healthy he adds a ton... Still have some depth concerns because i am not sure how much we get out of some of these young guys: Tarin, Cornish, Hammond, Deng Deng right off the bat. But if you can find someone who can give you meaningful minutes that would be huge. If you think about it, here is who we replace: Vucetic- Played no minutes/ easily replaced by Hammond who has the potential to play some minutes or even redshirt. Hawkins- Helped with depth but i think that Tarin Smith will average more minutes while helping backup a position of need. I think Webster slides over to the 2 and gives more meaningful minutes than Hawkins did. Gallegos- Ray was awful this year. I think a guy like Deng Deng or cornish add more on the Defensive side of the ball and size(if we get either of those guys) Peltz- Easily replaced by Smith Wagner- Never played-- replaced by a walk on even. Not a lot that needs to replaced. Gallegos played some minutes, but i think any of these guys coming in can replace those minutes. Cornish will be a tough get with UCLA and SMU coming on hard. Deng Deng is ours to lose if Baylor doesnt grab him this weekend on his visit. Quote Link to comment
