Hoiberg was big into the transfer market at ISU, so this would be a real nice get. Quote Link to comment

The transfer world is going to be the new hot thing and as of right now, totally lawless (I mean that in a good way) in terms of recruiting. No handlers, no street agents, no AAU coaches...it is open season. Build a solid base of talent with 4-year guys and then bring in 1-2 difference makers in transfers each year and that’s a quality team. Miles had a similar strategy, he just never had the base of 4-year talent which was developed and able to create depth. Quote Link to comment

Once Borchardt was forced into action, we got a little better. 1 Quote Link to comment

Out of the gate for the 1st couple years Hoiberg will go heavy on the JUCO's, then transition to the longer term depth. Expect him to take risks on guys that may not be the most upstanding citizens. That could be a little uncomfortable for this fanbase. However, if you want to win and win quickly its a necessity and you have to be ok with it for a little while. Good read here. Key statement: “We did, no doubt, take some risks,” says assistant coach Matt Abdelmassih. “But we did our due diligence, we got all our background work, and we determined that the rewards were a lot greater than those risks.” Quote Link to comment

Miles has some talent here and others coming in that sounds like they are staying committed to the Huskers. Quote Link to comment

But I wouldn't be surprised to see 2-3 of them in his first couple years. There will be transfers out regardless and Miles may have left some talent but that talent may not necessarily fit what Hoiberg wants to do either. Just understand Hoiberg will take chances on low character guys to get the ball rolling.......and I'm OK with that. He's proven in the respect to be able to get troubled guys to stay somewhat out of trouble and play solid basketball. (ex. Royce White) Quote Link to comment

I think that will change, but people act like he is a 5* That being said I would take him and Johnson Jr was always overrated. Zaire Wade currently has 3 offers. Nebraska was first, followed by University of Miami, and Michigan St. Quote Link to comment

We took kids all over the country & no social media. Yes, we had kids who had problems after they got here. Like Washington, but we never took a kid that I can remember who had a lot of prior issues. Thugs went to Miami u. Bringing thugs to Lincoln will not make the majority happy. Quote Link to comment
