NU v NW

Nebraska behind big early? What are the odds of that happening?

Do you suppose we'll another game with a big early deficit, a furious rally to get back into the game, only to fade at the end?
 
How perfect. We give them three chances to score, let them score and foul too. Beautiful basketball
 
Tim Miles is lost at this point....getting worked again...by NW. Wish I could say it's surprising. Luckily it's NW and they could just as easily turn into Nebrasketball in the second half. 22 points at half.......RollingLaugh
 
Ohhhh boy looks like we will play Rutgers Wednesday and should win that one and look who would next on Thursday ... Purdue.Sick

Is there a team out there LESS fun to watch than us? We won't defend. We won't rebound, and we can't score. It's just brutal to watch...think I'll do my taxes....
 
2-8 since the MSU win. Hard to say the team got better as the year went on...something you would like to be able to say with a young team.
 
NW first 20 win season in school history.

Had to look it up and Nebraska has 12 20+ seasons in Basketball.

Looks like I can look forward to Opie Eichorst choice in the future.
He did hire the ACC coach of the year and a coach who is about to get a 2 or 3 seed in the big dance. Miles will likely be at NU for another two years....another year under .500 next year and things could get pretty dicey for him. He needs to retain all the talent brought in and find a legitimate big man ASAP.
 
I have zero hope and faith Tim Miles can turn it around. I really thought he could do it. My guess is he will get at least 1 more year but does anyone think it will matter?

People actually watched this game? I didn't waste my time. Like we didn't know the outcome before the game was played.

He should be given next year to make the NIT, or be gone. No fking extensions until after the season is complete.

Miles has to win next year. Coaches don't survive four losing seasons in five
 
I doubt that Miles is the guy to turn us around. His recruiting has been better than recent coaches, but it has not been enough. And now it may be too late. Four years and zero progress. HTO can pump all the sunshine he wants about Miles, but the guy looks totally lost. He will be here for two more years. And I predict it will be 2 more years of typical NU basketball.

All that said... It is a damn shame. I had high hopes for Miles. And he is a very likeable guy. I really hope he proves me wrong. Finding a coach who can come in and turn us around won't be easy. Much better for us if Miles pulls a rabbit out of his hat and succeeds in the next two years. I just highly doubt he will.

Disagree big time. Am I disappointed by this season? Very much so, but we tasted a little bit of success and now we think we deserve to be a basketball power. It is going to take some work. Our recruiting has been good, and we could be a big man from really competing. I'd say he has at least two years to see what these youngsters can do.
