Husker Hoops Exhibition vs. Chadron State
- Thread starter SomedayHusker
- Start date
We need to find a guy who would be smart enough to offer Baylor Scheierman out of high school.
Um yeah. I knew that from the first time I met him back in the 80s. The hope was that he could recruit with his wackiness and social media presence. It sorta worked. I really thought Fred would draw in more bigtime talent than he has.
Hmm that’s odd. My parents know he and his brother. Never heard of him being a douche bag and it definitely didn’t come off that way in his job here either. They grew up near my parents in Northeast South Dakota.
Huskers dropped their charity exhibition game in Boulder yesterday 72-61. Closer than I thought it would be, once I heard Derrick Walker wasn't playing. Hoiberg just said it was a medical issue, but didn't elaborate.
Buffs are not great this year, though they have a couple of very good players returning. K.J. Simpson is a solid point guard who can score, and he pretty much had his way with the Husker guards. Game was fairly competitive though, after a terrible 0-10 start for NU.
Most amusing part of the radio broadcast was in the postgame, when Fred said he only opened up 20% of the playbook against Chadron and CU and he's excited to unveil the full package in upcoming games. Yeah Fred, I'll bet B1G opponents are shittin' themselves over that prospect.

I was around him when he was a young coach. I’m not saying he was an ass. He was just goofy.
that said, I think his personality was I’ll suited to coach a B1G team. I really don’t think he related well to most B1G level talent. I believe he’s much better suited to a MVC level conference.

Having Walker in street clothes didn’t help. Shooting 20% from 3 isn’t going to cut it though regardless. This team can’t throw it in the ocean.
Also 3-10 from the FT line. Terrible even by Husker standards.
