They're based on what a team has done thus far. Where were we on Bracket Matrix previously? I remember looking at it but don't remember if we were on "Next Four Out" or below that. Anyhow, it was updated in the morning. So it didn't take today's games into account. Quote Link to comment

Jordy is an absolute liability on defense/rebounding, and provides his fair share of blunders on the offensive end. Okeke is quite the opposite, but at least provides another rim protector to go along with Roby. Still haven't figured out why Jordy is first off the bench before Okeke, other than Miles being scared hurt Jordy's feelings again. Jordy is the better offensive player.

B.B. Hemingway Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 @Cdog923 Jordy is the better offensive player (between he and Okeke), but his offensive impact is still minimal. Considering Nebraska's needs as a team, I'd rather have Okeke on the floor. Quote Link to comment

If Duby is on the floor, his defender can help clog the lane on drives. Jordy is the better rebounder, too. Quote Link to comment

TNelson97 Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Don’t worry about being “next four out”. If Nebraska takes care of business we will be in. Lots of bubble teams still to play each other. Magic number for the huskers is 23 wins Quote Link to comment

Jordy gets a board every 3.3 minutes played, Okeke one every 3.9 minutes played. Whereas Okeke gets a block every 6 minutes played, Jordy one every 52 minutes played. Any Div-1 player is capable of making a layup, which pretty much describes Jordy's offensive capabilities (has a okay hook shot). I'd be surprised if Jordy comes up much in a defensive scouting report by an opponent. There's no right answer, but give me Okeke with this team. Edited February 11, 2018 by B.B.

Savage Husker Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Not that he was a household name or anything, but I’d take a healthy Leslee Smith over both Duby and Jordy. Quote Link to comment

Jordy scores more, has a higher shooting percentage, a much higher FT percentage, grabs more rebounds and doubles the amount of minutes that Duby does. In the end, though, there's a reason Roby is our starting 5. Quote Link to comment

I’d take Smiths basketball IQ over Jordys untapped potential - Jordy has two more years to develop. Smith was a small 5 who did what he could.
