    Creighton sports

    Just like the T.O./Solich situation I don't think either veteran coach wanted to leave it up to their current AD to make the next hire. I always thought the most important part of an AD's job description was to make the next important hire. Are Creighton fans happy with their current AD?

    NU BB transfer

    Nee made it to many NCAA's which was great. He also could recruit and had the best roster of talent in UNL basketball history. Unfortunately every first round in the NCAA he would get outcoached by the opposing coach consistently. And we were favored in some of those games. All we need is a...

    He has the right name. Venson Hamilton was argubly one of the most under-rated Husker players ever to play at UNL. Danny Nee had to tell a few fibs when recruiting him to get him to Lincoln. Thank goodness.

    Happy Heavenly Birthday to the Bob Father

    He was a great judge of talent, both in finding players and hiring the right coaches. He grabbed TO as a young grad assistant and didn't waste any time in elevating and turning the offense over to him. He could recruit with the best of them and always seemed to win the mothers over. His best...

    Janowski transferring (basketball)

    Don't forget about all those complaining when Cale came into a regular season game for a couple of minutes before halftime. I didn't see those people complain later when he was thrown into the Crown tournament games.

    After Fred found out that Cale was a better all around player than Janowski this was bound to play out. Cale can handle and distribute the basketball better than Nick. He also plays defense, rebounds, can knock down a three and has a very good basketball IQ. He got his chance and earned his...

    I’m waiting for Top Kong

    And with two walkon starters. Go figure. The college scholar/athlete is still alive.

    Jamarques Lawrence, Pryce Sandfort and an athletic big would be excellent. Maybe a quick, ball handling point guard to play so many minutea I would take the younger Sandfort over Dix in a heartbeat. He can play the 3 or 4 where Dix cannot. Pryce can actually defend some where as Dix is a...

    Hoyas next up for the Huskers in the Crown as 9.5 underdog

    The best analogy is it’s like going to a minor bowl game with a 6-6 regular season football record. You get more practices to supposedly help for the next season and an additional game(s) to play.

    Hate to say it but Meah has a vertical of about 6 inches. Berke and Morgan's vertical isn't much better. We all observed it in the BIG every game and are probably challenged in this Crown Tournament also.

    I always love it when people make a comment about how many layups our "bigs" missed in a game. Like the other night against ASU we struggled big time against their 7' foot center who was strong, quick and could jump. Thank goodness he got into foul trouble or we might not have pulled out the...

    We all want the men's and women's teams at UNL to do well. I don't follow our wrestling program that close but was thrilled that Coach Manning and his team could accomplish what they did this year. Perseverance and hard work paid off. I think many of us just wished that our revenue...

    Hoiskers 5.5 favorites over Arizona St in the crown tournament

    Brice has way too much put on his shoulders due to the limitations of the other four on the floor with him. Hoiberg should be a role player but because of the weaknesses of our current 8-9 player rotation this year's roster forces Sam to play way too many minutes. We have no other options. If...

    Hoiskers 5.5 favorites over Arizona St in the crown tournament

    Too many times when Essegian comes into the game he immediately forces a low percentage shot and then another one shortly after. If he would just let the game come to him and take the higher percentage shot available he and the team would be a lot better off.

    Hoiskers 5.5 favorites over Arizona St in the crown tournament

    Eight out of ten of the most successful D1 basketball coaches over time are some of the lowest character people you can find. Pitino gets caught fornicating with some woman other than his wife on a table in the back room of a restaurant in Louisville and the school turns their head until he...
