Sanders and Freeman leave a 3-15 team and suddenly we improve to 7-13. They both had talent yet we had significant improvement without them.
I get your point but they left after the season giving Pike a full offseason with ew recruits and returning players to gel and improve.

Kid can go off at any time and rip 30-40. Had some nice assists against Minny in his limited minutes. Big plus for RU that the kid won't be playing tonight.

Didn’t think my thread would get derailed by a bunch of people complaining about calling Nebraska, Nebby as I’ve seen done here a million times. Rough crowd.

Anywho, I wonder how this impacts the game plan and who are now the focal points.

You are right, but missing Myles is different than missing Robbins.

The 9-17 and 8-30 were big factors.

Still they are Nebraska. I hope I didn't put the jinx on.
Maybe I overrate Myles. I think he is everything to this team.

I realize how good Robbins is, but I doubt he is as valuable to his team than Myles is to our team.

Robbins averages 12 points 6.5 boards 2.7 blocks in 25 minutes also shoots 33% from 3 and 69% at the foul line

No. I could see Temple or Iona (Pitino Sr) take a shot with him. Seton Hall????
Allen's comment, to me, comes off as someone who is not going to try another college but will just try for professional...
"After a lot of thought over the last few days, I have made the decision to focus on getting fully healthy in preparation for the next step in my basketball journey," Allen said in a news release.

What i don't get is if you only have likely 3 games left in the season, why not just sit out with the injury/recover or whatever you were hoping to do and then leave after the season but finish it out with your team?

Doesn’t like going to class?

He played the majority of the Penn State game and dropped 41. Nebraska still lost. His minutes decreased to 20 against Illinois, but it’s Illinois so the result didn’t change. Another loss. The next game he only played 10 minutes and didn’t score. Nebraska upset Minnesota. It was clear that Hoiberg wanted more ball movement and teamwork. He wasn’t going to be a major contributor any more. So he left the program.

I am nervous about this one.. they can be easily overlooked... we simply cannot come out with poor energy and effort.. if thye hang around (or worse) til halftime.. well, lets just say losing a game like this can definitely send us into a funk the rest of the way.

It does not matter as they are killing us raining 3’s. Looks like a huge egg being laid.

Yeah that's more of a legit rationale. My point was that the reasoning given publicly of leaving to get healthy and prepare for next chapter made no sense (to me atleast) considering where we are in the season since he can save face and recover from injury while technically being part of the team. I just think the way it was done would just draw more drama and attention to the situation than needed and seemed worse for him PR wise. In the grand scheme, i dont know him or their people so doesnt impact me...just saying this could have been over and done with and not drawn out if they just said, he's got the lingering injury so he's not going to play for now then leave after the season ends (no quitting the team, no articles being written about him, etc).

love the people triggered by Nebby

Before going to the B1G I had never heard this, even by rivals. Not Oklahoma, Colorado, Mizzou, K State or Texas. Never.

Nebby was started by loser Iowa fans and is cringe. But Iowa fans are even more cringe than that as they eventually turned Nebby into "Debby"

Get it? Like a little girl. Hilarious, right? Dumb.
