Aaaaannnnnd we turn it over again. 2 straight possessions with a chance to stretch the lead and maybe ice the game....and we turn it over.
Basketball: Nebraska @ Rutgers 11:00am ESPNU
- Thread starter TwinsRRUs
- Start date
This one's all on Tai. 2 turnovers in our last 2 possessions. What the heck was he thinking. STUPID.
Same ole same ole Nebrasketball. Another lengthy losing streak for Tim MiLLLLLLLes.
Gee, N p*ssed themselves again at the end of a game. A Tim MIles staples.
Hope they are super proud of losing to a hapless Rutgers team that was winless prior to today - after leading by 5 with a minute and a half to go. Didn't get a shot off the rest of the way.
What clowns.

Why was mcveigh in the game on D for the last possession. Sorry, miles stops thinking at the end of games.
What the frick were those last two offensive possessions. Fire Miles already. Damn it.
Is this what those in authority had in mind when they invested millions and millions of dollars in the basketball program?
A complete debacle, and I would not blame anyone for wanting to gut the entire operation and start over.

Does anyone have the manual on when it's acceptable to blame the coach for a loss?
Miles is basically undefeated at NU.
What a total Nebrasketball move. Get a win streak and follow it up by losing four straight, lmao.
Now all the sudden we're hoping to get just one more win on the season.

It's like the movie Groundhog's Day. We keep living the same day over and over and over and over....

I'm guessing that you can't blame Miles for those last two turnovers. But if we didn't play so freakin' awful in the first half it wouldn't have mattered.
Were any of you people alive 5-10 years ago? Recent stretch is very disappointing - but state of the program is definitely at an entirely different level than it was when Miles got here. We need to find ways to avoid the bad stretches and obviously would have loved to finish out the last two games the other way but you can't throw away the progress that has been made.
Pretty much. What we see is what we get and I'm far from impressed with coach Miles.
But hey...that Tim Miles fella...he will surely start stringing together multiple wins from here on out.
Been following NU hoops for a half century, and I think the state of the program is about what it has always been - glimmers of hope followed by setbacks.
But that said, I don't want to start over with another new coach. Not yet, anyway. There's much better talent entering the program, so let's build on that. But it needs to translate into more wins soon, and you have to avoid losses to awful teams.
5-10 years ago was before we invested millions of dollars into facilities and resources for the program. And it's looking like the result is 4 losing seasons in 5 years and too many ridiculous second-half collapses to count.
I've been following Nebraska basketball since the 70s. The talent level is unquestionably higher but the level of play is the same or worse than 10 years ago when we won 20 games with Aleks Maric, Sek Henry and Ade Dagundero. This program is fundamentally broken, there is something wrong and I'm not sure that Tim Miles is the guy that gets this turned around. When you lose at home to Incarnate Word and Gardner Webb with our level of talent you have to stop making excuses for the coach.
Is it coaching or is it talent? After so many years one would assume the coach has the players he wants on the floor...the players he recruited to do what he felt necessary to win in the B1G. So you can't have it both ways...either Miles can't recruit or he can't coach the kids he has recruited. Either way his record would indicate something isn't right and just maybe it's time for a change. I would think SE will be looking at what's out there at the end of this season and pull the trigger if he can find someone available that wants the job and can do the job....cause what he has now ain't working!
I told my wife not to let me watch any more NU hoops this season, and to remind me of the last 4 days if I'm ever tempted.
