BigRedBuster Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Does anyone know when the press conference was rescheduled for? All I know is they said sometime this week. I actually think he's coming back. Just a hunch, but, I don't think they would be making such a big deal with a press conference if he was entering the draft and gone. Tangentially, you'd also have to believe that the plethora of underclassman making the jump to the NBA would push him further down the list; maybe making him think about how his stock might improve with another year....? That's my feelings and, I believe that is probably what Miles is telling him, but I could see a young kid not thinking the same way. Quote Link to comment
Minnesota_husker Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 BRB- I dont think Army Allen was claiming you were in the wrong for asking the question.. It is a hard spot for everyone. People want to know what will happen, but with the passing of his mother, it is hard to expect him to hurry up to tell us about whether or not he will play a GAME. I dont think you are in the wrong for asking, but i dont think we will hear for a while, and you know what, that is ok with me. I want TP to take as much time as he needs. I think that he was probably going to the pros but with his mom passing away, it might be really hard if he doesnt get drafted and ends up in Europe. No matter what he does, I think he will have the support from the Nebraska community. Quote Link to comment

Hedley Lamarr Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Petteway to the draft..... Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I know I predicted the opposite but this doesn't surprise me. World-Herald Big Red @OWHbigred 1h 1 hour ago Terran Petteway endured a lot this year, and now he'll pursue his NBA dream: http://bit.ly/1E5OfyU #Huskers Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Thanks for all the effort here. You lead us to the tourney again. Good luck in the future. Quote Link to comment
Paul in WI Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Thanks for all of the hard work in helping put Nebrasketball in the national conversation and getting us those good recruits. None of this would have happened without your effort on and off the court. Best of luck Terran! Quote Link to comment
Minnesota_husker Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 I think Petteway knows he isnt going to improve his stock... I am sad to see him go. I understand the criticism he received for how often he shot, but he was still an elite player. We are now starting the season without 3 probable starters. We have replaced one with an unknown PG freshman. and two open slots with nothing to really show for the spring recruiting period. Quote Link to comment
Hedley Lamarr Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 This wouldn't sting so badly if we were bringing in a solid C prospect. I am starting to think we will play 3 guards and have Morrow at the forced 5. So basically Shileds and Morrow as forwards. Timmy must be going for the shortest team in the B1G Quote Link to comment

Timmy must be going for the shortest team in the B1G We had that honor near the tail end of our time in the Big 12... That was just a boat load of fun to watch. I would think that Hammond or Jacobsen will play the 5 before Morrow does. Quote Link to comment

Timmy must be going for the shortest team in the B1G If so, it isn't because he necessarily wants to. Bigs are hard to find and he hasn't had much luck convincing them to give the Huskers a shot. Hopefully we see great maturation and improvement from Hammonds. 1 Quote Link to comment
jcsmhammel Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Petteway reminded me of that high school player who thought he didn't need any help. And as soon as he got the ball in his hand he was going to shoot it regardless of how open other players, this isn't a big loss for the program Quote Link to comment

Husker no ka oi Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Does TP know the nba draft is only 2 rounds, not 12 like the nfl. He's going to be a fine small forward in Euorpe next year, who knows maybe a team in tank mode will sign him to a 10 day contract. Quote Link to comment
