Local media= lapdogs. The only loser in all of this crap are the fans. They deserve it, though.
Sadly this is pretty accurate. The admin cares about dollars and attendance, that's what will get their attention.
Wouldn’t it be crazy if Omaha won a game in the NCAA’s before Nebraska did?
To be fair 17-14 record is far better than the 7, 7, and 10 win seasons he has put out here.
I do not agree. Sam plays hard, gets a lot of loose balls and rebounds, but most importantly makes up for the mistakes made by other players. He can score, but do I ever think he will be a big scorer? No. I just think he is a great "Glue" player. Does the dirty work for the team.
Same with Ruhle. His buyout on December 1 of this year will be $49.6 million. Because of the huge buyout, I don't see Nebraska firing him if we have a disappointing season - unless there is a total collapse where we win only 2-3 games.
The three Bigs were not good on this year's team. Morgan gets down so low he makes himself into a 6'5" player. Berke probably has the most talent. Sees the floor well, but an inconsistent scorer and not a good enough rebounder for his size. I think the team went into a funk after he was hurt. If Meah were 3 inches shorter, he would never had played Div. I basketball. Has absolutely no understanding of the game and has no skills. Takes himself out-of-position on the defensive end. He is just a big guy running up and down the court with no clue. I bet 6'0" Sam Hoiberg blocks him out from getting rebounds in practice all the time.
Agree, football has done nothing the last 25 years, and we are wasting NIL on the worst mens program in the athletic department. We need to use that money on some high profile basketball players.
Well that’s good. Because every time Sam drives into the lane, picks up his dribble and turns his back to the basket with nowhere to go, it takes four guys to get him out of that mess.
As a UNO graduate, I'm definitely rooting for them but as a lifelong Cornhusker fan I'd still die a little inside 😂
I get the McCollum love as the guy wins, but man, his teams are super boring to watch. Its a very slow paced half court game that emphasizes defense and making the other team guard the whole shot clock. It definitely works for him but its definitely not the most entertaining product
Fran will be gone with his next loss.
Lame conference? Doesn’t the Big East have 8 Nattys in men’s basketball since the B1G won their last? Didn’t the Big East have 3 sweet 16 teams last year to the B1G 2? Didn’t the Big East smoke the B1G last year in the Natty?
It is a lame conference now because of the lack of NIL
Indiana is not looking at him right now. They are totally kicking the tires on Beard but they are worried about that fight with his lame ass girlfriend while at UT.
The Big East is a lame conference?? Last two natty’s came from there and St. John’s is one of the best teams in the country with a legend coach. They’ll probably get 5 teams in. It’s not a lame conference.
It is lame and I explained why in the post above. Most of those schools have zero NIL.
Lame conference lame NIL? Hmm, last 2 seasons the national champ came out of there plus didn’t Nova win a pair of them less than a decade ago.
NIL just started and UCONN looks like ass this year compared to the last two years.
I guess it’s all perspective. If lack of nil makes a conference lame in your opinion, so be it. But in terms of talent and competition, it’s as good as any.
He is just trolling, he sounds rather jealous to be honest about it. Those big east schools are all high quality and have a lot of successful graduates. For him to say most of the schools have zero NIL is a lie. He might be thinking of the Missouri Valley?
They are already dropping way off because of lack of NIL. It is not their fault, they don't have the boosters and/or football fans to help.
