“It’s undeniable the progress that Fred and his staff have made,” Alberts said during a wide-ranging interviews hours before NU tipped off against Michigan. “The staff additions he made, as he recreated his staff, have been really, really good. Our team is really enjoyable to watch.”

I was pulling for Hoiberg to work out this year, but the results are again poor.

Looked at this and said 2017-2018 and 2018-2019 were pretty good. Then i realized that was Tim Miles, lol. But I guess Hoiberg is trending ever so slightly in the right direction?
 
SMFH. Are you saying the big $'s have no interest in bailing out another dupe? When we're competitive in something it can be fun, that's fine. But this has been a sh!tshow. Its not fun, and no one wants to watch it.
This is 5 cans of frosting on a 10 layer sh!t cake level of twist. Not a very reassuring thing to read.

NU fan base has always thought of itself as big dog but there have been rumblings as of late the money is a bit tired of writing checks.

Big dollars for coaches followed by more big dollars for NIL. I think in the near term the old die hards who remember the good ole days will keep funding but as family fortunes land in the hands of the kids I think NU will take a step back in terms of what kind of bottomless money pit is on offer.
 
One SEC team as a semi-comparable situation:

6 losing seasons in the previous 8 years.

New coach this year and are currently 17-6.
(not a big shot coach by any means)

There’s zero excuse to accept a coach with Fred’s record. It’s so quick and easy to flip a basketball roster.
This should not be debated.
 
I think what frustrates me about his statement or interview whatever it was. He mentioned the Penn State home game and the support and fan engagement is strong. Please don't use that as a measuring stick.

Translation. He doesn't have a replacement yet.
 
If it werent for injuries, this team would have been at least NIT bound. The core of Walker Bandoumel Gary and Griesel have played like 5 games together. The biggest issues right now are we are not where we need to be from an NIL standpoint. Creighton is paying Scheurmann 400k this year. Every CU basketball player has a car and an apartment provided to them by their collective. NU cannot compete from a recruiting standpoint until we fix our NIL.

I think Trev knows there are bigger issues then who is holding the whistle at practice. You're not gonna find a guy more qualified than Fred. We need to get our shit together from an NIL standpoint.

People that just constantly write checks for tix every year can stop any time now

Moos has to be the biggest fvcktard loser in the history of D1 athletic directors
It’s amazing they gave that drunk loser his buyout. He didn’t even bother pretending to do his job (or even show up). It’s criminal what the University brass covered up for him
 
I love the posters who blame the athletic director. Fred was a fairly unanimous positive hire amongst experts, fans and major boosters. It was a home run hire. I don’t care one way or another. To Nebraska fans thinking regular NCAA tournament invites and victories are just around the corner with the right coach. Maybe with NIL. But the reality of our whole men’s basketball history deserves a LOL.

I still don't get why they played the schedule they did. Could have easily played an easier non con and ended up with fifteen wins.
That is not a good model to go after. You have to play better competition to get better. If we play a cupcake schedule and get 10 wins, there is no way we are winning 5 games in conference. You have to prepare your team for the tougher games. Even undefeated against shit teams will net zero wins in conference. Iowa tries this in football then gets rolled when it matters.

Sometimes the shit teams on Iowa's schedule manage to beat them .

We could have played the fiftieth hardest schedule instead of the hardest.
