USC comes into the Vault as 6 point dog

If NU doesn't make the BTT, Fred needs to be gone and they need to do all the van to get Devires from WVU because Iowa is going to try top land him as well.
West Virginia is a better basketball job than Nebraska. DeVries would not leave there for Nebraska. If he keeps winning he will be able to get about any job he wants. He'd be dumb to go somewhere where nobody has been able to win.
DeVries will be a top candidate to take over at Creighton when McDermott hangs it up or moves on.

I just don't see how you can keep him if he doesn't make the BTT.

That would be what, 1 NCAA tourney, no tourney wins and not making the BTT in 7 years?
But, but, but … he’s had a good winning % the last year and a half.

No "elite" coach is coming to Nebraska. Fred is as close to elite as we could have expected to hire. He won multiple Big 12 championships at Iowa State, made a Sweet 16, averaged 23 wins/year, was an NBA head coach and NBA executive
this is why we suck for 50 years and will never be a factor in anything. We accept what you just typed. Stupid

At some point you accept reality and reality can hurt. No "elite" coach is saying, "Gee I should really take a look at that Nebraska job."

A more realistic scenario would be to strike gold on some young hot prospect and they develop into an elite coach (similar to Roy Williams start at Kansas). Still likely a stretch but far more realistic.

UCLA was athletic. Shooting teams are probably more of our Achilles heel. USC only makes 6.4 treys per game and their defense is pretty bad. We should find points and also get to the line plenty.

Their season/schedule has been wild. They appear to be improving massively as the season goes..They went from scoring just 36 points on St Mary’s to beating Illinois on the road.
So they’ll hit 12 treys tonight?

This is a pretty big game playing at home in which a loss would be devastating moving forward the rest of the season.

This would be the first year to not make the Big tournament for any Big 10 teams.

No you posted if he doesn’t make the BTT..
Big Ten Tournament.. That is how I interpreted it.
Yes, if he does not make the BTT this year, so if he is one of the bottom 3 teams and misses out on March Madness for the 6th time in 7 years, he should be fired.

I really don't feel like that is that insane, is it?

I did not think about that.
Of course they could have their pick of a lot of people. Other former assistant if they want to go that route would be Alan Huss. But maybe McDermott stays a number of years yet and DeVries takes a shot somewhere else, like Iowa after this season. Don’t know if the Hawkeyes make the big tournament or not and might be retirement time for the giant crybaby goofball they have as a coach.

Not all that hard to understand. But it doesn't matter.

It is clear that if he doesn't make the BTT in the VERY FIRST YEAR of it being with 18 teams after ONLY making March Madness 1 time during his time at NU, he should be canned. Don't you think?

No you didn’t.
Not making the BTT in seven years is the big 10 tournament.

Hoping the reverse jinx works! 4 minutes…
Why they STILL set it up for 2 hours is insane. Set it up for 2.5 hours. Add in one more "forced" break per half and you still have studio time after the game.

Start the 1st game at 5:30 CST and you can still have the 2nd game at 8:00.

Doesn't care about this argument.

Dude, you must work in a field where you are not around humans. Because you struggle to pick up on things.

Vacuum repair man?
