GT: Nebraska at #21 Purdue - 3:30PM CT - BTN

Miles recruited bigs...he just recruited bad ones..

I remember lots of Husker fans jizzing about Hammonds who was a top 150 player...

I would not mind if this guy had 35 points today if we made him earn his points from the free throw line. He was too good inside and he was dunking on us like he was playing NBA jam. It wasn't a great matchup but we definitely could have done more to at least slow Hammons down.

He needs to get bigger, like 20 to 30 lbs.

That is the problem with recruiting bigs...

You either get studs that are "ready"

or you get projects and project-bigs are very hard to coach up and bulk up. Top 150 Bigs are usually not a prize...

Hammond should red-shirted, but I also expected more. Jacobsen is out playing him. Kind of a disappointment, just hoping he becomes serviceable the next 2 years.

They do tend to "get it" starting their junior year...

Hey, Tim. Maybe you can recruit a player taller then 6'8" next year. If the last 2 years hasn't been a sign for this to happen. Maybe your not that good of a coach.

Pretty sure Jake Hammond is at least 6'10".. So he must be a good coach based on your criteria
