Also Easley won’t have a scholarship and Mack is gone. On 3/17/2020 at 11:38 PM, SouthLincoln Husker said: I could see cross staying arop leaving.

Someone else will be gone, maybe another too. Arop or him are most likely to be gone.

Mack- Gone Green- Gone Burke- Gone Ouedraogo- confirmed he’s back Allen- newcomer Mayen- newcomer Webster- grad transfer King- transfer that’s 9 Scholarship guys. We’re after multiple transfers still, including guards and bigs. We’ve been linked to 7-8 guys still out there in the market, I’m thinking we’ll take at least one, possibly two more. Then: Cross: Atrocious PER and shot 27% from 3. Not saying I want him to leave just wouldn’t be surprised if he did. Arop: didn’t play meaningful minutes until we had nobody left Plus what Mav said above. It’s not unthinkable to think these two would be processed and we’d bring in another PG/JUCO/Transfer On 3/19/2020 at 7:48 PM, seaofred92 said: He’s too slow to play 3. He needs to work his butt off and be a power forward and small ball 5. He actually initiates the break well and I don’t think he’s total deadweight. I just think if they chose to move on from him it won’t be the end of the world. Quote Link to comment

Maybe I just don't see it. His shooting form just looks awkward to me - and his 27% shooting on 3s tends to agree with my assessment. But he still fired up basically as many as anyone on the team. And he just doesn't strike me as overly athletic. As with Arop, I could see him realizing he is getting recruited over and look for other options. 1 hour ago, seaofred92 said: Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted March 2, 2021 Author Share Posted March 2, 2021 Allen leaving got me wondering how Green is doing. Apparently the answer is - not great. 1.8 ppg and 0.9 apg in 10 minutes per game at Pacific. JUCO guys haven't been working out very well so far. Quote Link to comment

That Western Nebraska CC is supposed to be really good in basketball, but their grads haven't had much recent success, at least at Nebraska (although Allen had mixed success at NU).

The only really great player I remember coming through WNCC was Bobby Jackson. He ended up with the Gophers and then was the #23 overall pick in 1997. Had a nice NBA career and won Sixth man one season. He was the same year as Bernard Garner that went to UNL. https://wnccathletics.com/sports/mbkb/MBBALL_Moving_On 1 Quote Link to comment

He was a very good player at Minnesota and led them to the Final Four. Of course, that Final Four was later vacated when the NCAA realized that Jackson and many other Gophers didn't go to class.
