Huskers In Final Four

[BigRedBuster]

Ok, now that I got your attention. 
 

Can you put a starting five together from past and present Husker players you think could make a run as a final four team?

Big ask for a program that has never even won a tourney game. 
 

My try. 
 

Lue

Belcher

Strickland

Hoppen

Piatkowski

Coach. Nee. 
 

Not sure if that would even do it. 

 

[Mavric]

Lue

Piatkowski

Strickland

McGowens

King

 

[gobiggergoredder]

Just a few to add to the discussion

Aleks Maric

Shevon Shields

Isaiah Roby (Never played his position at NU.  Took one for the team)

 

[BigRedBuster]

Lue

Piatkowski

Strickland

McGowens

King

I struggle to put McGowens on here just because basketball is a game where one dominating player should make the team better than they were last year.

Jack Moore - PG

Erick Strickland - SG

Eric Piatkowski - SF/Wing

Mikki Moore - PF

Dave Hoppen - C

Coach Moe Iba

Coach Moe Iba

Really?

I'd take Nee over Iba.

 

[admo]

Really?

I'd take Nee over Iba.

Ok you convinced me.  I will fire Iba and replace him with Nee.  

 

[ECisGod]

I will fire Iba and replace him with Nee.  

That's been done before.  It worked out pretty good for awhile, then turned into a giant pile of snot.

Nope.  Starters only.  We can go all day about bench guys 

 

[desertshox]

Nope.  Starters only.  We can go all day about bench guys 

But the bench guys are necessary to get to final 4.

Why not this year's roster?

Win the B1G tourney, get in the dance, and go to work!

:koolaid2:

Sorry.
