Nailed it….We've never been a basketball school and doubt we will ever will become one. Doesn't mean that we can't have good years. If you look at the Bluebloods who are basketball schools, the majority of them have garbage football teams as they are Basketball schools.
She needs cuffed and stuffed!!
Nailed it….
Can’t image people who are nerd turds on the open board watching the January6
Insurrection over the beginning of the NCAA basketball tournaments and find it more exciting..😂
I thought hoiberg brought in the good recruiters? Didn't we get a 5 star player? How much better can they recruit?
Still waiting for that easy turnaround.

No, Hoiberg did not bring in good recruiters. He had Matt A. who was shady as hell. He got one 5-star player and a bunch of mid-major caliber players.
Just look at K-State this year if you don't think a quick turnaround is possible. Or Iowa State last year. Or Alabama now under Nate Oats. All of these programs were in the dumps recently and are now ranked in the Top 15. If these programs can win, there's no reason Nebraska can't. ISU and KSU have crappy facilities and are in the middle of nowhere. Alabama is a football school that had never had much success in basketball.
Hey whassup Jae, thought you’d abandoned usYea maybe. I guess I'll just keep hoping in my hand.
No, but they won the NIT once.When were they good? Did they win a conference title? Did they win an NCAA tournament game?
Hey whassup Jae, thought you’d abandoned us
But it's only 5 players needed. One of them was a 5 star. How many 5 stars does it take for a turnaround? Hoiberg was successful at Iowa state though right? Ok, well it's not working here.
I'm sure schools like Iowa say the same thing as they watch schools with "less" do more in football. I guess I can continue to hope in my hand.
Says he doesn't care enough to debate it... posts 20 times in the thread.I'm 36, they've never been good in my lifetime.
Don't worry, I don't care enough about basketball to debate it.
It takes 5 good players, or at least a couple of 1st-round level talents. One 2nd-round level player and 4 mediocre players isn't going to cut it in the Big Ten.
A few years ago people said Alabama was a football school that was never going to be great in basketball. Now they have a Final Four caliber team.
Hoiberg's success at ISU is in large part because TJ Otzelberger was an awesome recruiter, he brought in lots of NBA level talent to Ames. He's probably the guy we should have hired instead.

Debating, in other words. Not caring enough to debate would literally mean ignoring responses... because you don't care. Just admit you really do care about basketball.I don't ignore responses. I'm not an animal.

If you think you have to drop basketball to try to excel in football, you have idiots running your program.I've never really followed basketball. I wouldn't be sad if we just focused our resources on programs that have had success. Some schools don't have baseball, why do we have to keep basketball?

How about dropping football and wrestling to focus on basketball and hockey?If you think you have to drop basketball to try to excel in football, you have idiots running your program.

Football pays the bills. Every other sport is just a distraction until football season.How about dropping football and wrestling to focus on basketball and hockey?
Oh my goodness… a dumber thing may never have been said on here….That's what I'm saying. Cut basketball, focus on football.
Even in 20-21 men's basketball had a $2.6M profit. Football definitely pays the bills for the rest of the athletic department, but men's basketball pays its own bills.Football pays the bills. Every other sport is just a distraction until football season.
Boom. Owned himThey won the big 8 in 94. At one point in the early 90s they had more players in the nba than Kansas. So yeah they were good. They lost as a 3 seed in the tournament so to be a 3 seed you are top 15 in the country. They have had bad luck in the ncaa tournament.
Stop trolling message boards and go back to work, Trev.How about dropping football and wrestling to focus on basketball and hockey?
With massive conf payouts - football pays the bills by just simply existing ..Even in 20-21 men's basketball had a $2.6M profit. Football definitely pays the bills for the rest of the athletic department, but men's basketball pays its own bills.
K-State is led by Sr forward Keyonte Johnson who is averaging 18.5 points 7.4 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game. Hoiberg had Johnson committed to Nebraska and the administration blocked it despite the university's medical team clearing him to play here.No, Hoiberg did not bring in good recruiters. He had Matt A. who was shady as hell. He got one 5-star player and a bunch of mid-major caliber players.

Ok. Why didn't hoiberg hire better recruiters? Why didn't they hire otzelberger? They hoped hoiberg knew hoops? They hoped he would bring top talent and wins? They hoped because he did it at Iowa state with less resources, he would be able to at least match that here with more resources? It reminds me of the mike riley situation. Except hoiberg was more successful at Iowa state.
I should just keep hoping? Outside of one pretty good year and one above average year, what is there to be excited about, what is there to hope for? Hope we make the NCAA tournament, and win one game maybe two? Is that the pinnacle? Do we hope for more, do we accept less? What should be my expectation? Will I hope to have one good season every 30 years? I just don't get it, unless of course you just like basketball, which I understand, people like what they like.
DONU is the only Div 1 school to have yet to win a game in the dance. We are not a basketball school and never will be. We can hope for good years, but we are not a roundball school.They won the big 8 in 94. At one point in the early 90s they had more players in the nba than Kansas. So yeah they were good.

Man, if that's true that sucks. I hadn't heard that.Hoiberg had Johnson committed to Nebraska and the administration blocked it despite the university's medical team clearing him to play here.
We got rid of the “good recruiter” coach in the off season. It was well last time. He was nothing more than a mouthpiece with a cell phone to contact national reporters. He hid in his apartment for 2 years and used the Rona as an excuse.I thought hoiberg brought in the good recruiters? Didn't we get a 5 star player? How much better can they recruit?

Tard not hard when communicating with this poster.You bit hard huh?
