Fred's going to need to find an entirely new team in the transfer portal next year. None of these guys are good enough to play in the Big Ten.

very on brand for NU to finally schedule a semi-high profile hoops game in the heart of a recruiting hotbed only to be eviscerated by a thousand

I don't think our guys understand how hard you have to play to compete.
On top of that, they don't understand how to pass, dribble and move with purpose. It's just one random pickup game move after another, with no hint of an actual offense.

Nah.. spending their practices worrying about this woke crap and wondering which anthem to play instead of practicing basketball is the problem. Or does the on-court performance prove me wrong? Fred is a weak leader and needs to go.
So, in summary—all losing teams woke, all winning teams non-woke. Got it. So tonight, if the volleyball team loses they are woke. If they win non-woke. I’m so confused—didn’t they (players and coaches) apologize to the kneeling Maryland player for the incident in Lincoln? That would make them woke, yet they are in the Elite Eight????
Maybe coaching simple fundamentals has nothing to do with one’s social/political beliefs….

Why can Creighton put a good team together every year, but we can't? They have all the same disadvantages we have - they have the worst location of any Big East school yet still manage to find good players to compete in a tough conference.

You can't tell me it's because McDermott is an elite coach, he absolutely sucked at Iowa State, even Doc had a much better Big 12 record than he did.

watching mens sports at Nebraska is so depressing...I could only stomach about 90 seconds of the this game...verge is not the guy.....they rarely show wrestling so can't watch that...I was hopeful for basketball but it is t
urning into a real train-wreck.

Man I was not expecting Creighton to put it to BYU this way. Still a half to play, but Jays look way better than they did early in the season. Huskers, on the hand, appear to be jogging in place.

How can they all be that lazy on the court? Why put on the uniform if you are gonna stand around watching Verge dribble all day on offense and then barely even try to play defense or rebound. Just with a little bit of actual effort this team wouldn’t be such trash
Why can't Fred be a coach and establish an actual motion/flex offense to force movement...and have some established plays off of that? At least once in awhile? Please? Other than subbing and timeouts, it isn't obvious to me what his coaching/plan/requirements for the players are. Looks like roll the ball out there, 5-man scatter and hope somebody is hot today! No threes = no chance. Painful viewing.

Fred has lost this team. If they win one more game the rest of the season Ill be impressed (unless Trey comes back early). Hell if they lose a game by less than 15 Ill be impressed.

Just came home from a celebration of life of a friend of mine…

I see it’s another embarrassing played game today.

Hoiberg won’t last the end of the season..

F**ing A. Our football and basketball programs are seriously an anomaly of elite terribleness. How the hell do we hire 2 coaches that basically everybody wanted, and they both are the clear cut worst in the country at what they do. It’s actually f**ing incredible.

Guess we have to start by teaching these little boys how to be men first. Football and basketball players still need their mommies. I'm embarrassed to be a Husker fan lately. If you don't want to work hard and make something of yourself, then please just gtfo.

That goes for the coaches too. Don't want to be the best? Gtfo.

F**ing amazing that I see better shooting from my Rec basketball team. Seriously my teammate who is a loan officer makes more open threes than our scholarship college athletes. How does this happen?

Best recruiting class we’ve ever had and yet possibly the worst team ever. A spectacular failure.

Nah.. you asked what they were doing during practice and I said worrying about woke crap. It’s obvious they aren’t practicing basketball since they look lost out there. It was a joke you are taking way too seriously.

Volleyball team obviously practices volleyball.. it’s pretty obvious by their on-court performance win or lose.

Trev, go hire Niko Medved from Colorado State. Though he would be a fool to come to this coaching graveyard.

Got it. One problem (of many) of social media is not being able to read facial expressions or hear a person’s tone. My bad if I overreacted.

McDermott made a mistake when he first started at ISU by coddling some bad apples and he never really was able to recover. I think he learned from that though.
