With Fidler going to Michigan State will be interesting to see if Hepburn follows. Was hoping these guys would end up at Nebraska or at least stay local with Creighton. Still a shot though with Hepburn. Would expect him more likely at Creighton though. I believe William Kyle III still hasn't committ...

I was thinking, maybe the new Creighton baseball stadium, if that still happens. I think that's a done deal as the state approved the money for it and it's going to be used by the CWS. I really hope so. Would be nice to have the Jays in a better situation with a true home field advantage. I love wh...

First phase of $650 million development around the stadium, and riverfront promenade, approved and moving forward. Some great renderings in the article:

Crazy now we are waiting another year until construction is supposed to start. I will believe it when I see it. What a joke. If they are not confident of this very big investment, it's better they hold off and not build something half-donkey. Large projects can be more sensitive to the economy. It ...

I would imagine. It appears the Chasers are home those days.

Most likely at UNO, as Creighton/Morrison appears to be hosting the high school playoffs then.

Nebraska makes Frankie Fidler's final four. He's visiting Michigan State this weekend. I've seen a lot of posts about him having Wisconsin out front and reteaming with Chuckie Hepburn.

I agree, that whole area seems to be done fine, on both sides of Dodge.

And from last night: Last night, we reported on a series of fights at Gene Leahy Mall involving groups of unaccompanied juveniles. Less than two hours after our initial post, another fight at the park broke out involving around 50 minors. During this melee, a Good Samaritan was attacked and assaulte...

The Utah Transfer is a 6-foot 4-inch guard who averaged 9.9 points a game last season.

This is great news. Wonder if this has any influence on Ahron Uli staying or going?

I have been reading elsewhere that it is possible that Mask will be out all year due to knee surgery. Nothing solid on this but it does seem to have some life to it. We will see.

I think we have our primary candidates. Ewing vs Stothert. I have always assumed Pete Festersen would run for mayor (from a long time Omaha family, he went to Central). I have kind of assumed he's waiting until Stothert doesn't run and will then make a move. I think he'd be awesome. Not getting the ...

Even in their losses, they've been in every game. I am so glad they didn't hesitate to sign Bobby Witt Jr to the massive contract. I am really really enjoying their games.

This will definitely be popular and another good get for Nebraska Crossing. KC just got a another LEGO store in their new airport/terminal. Kind of caught me off guard.

When my boys were young we took them to the Legoland at Crown Center in KC, and also hit the Lego store at Mall of America.

Kiewit Hall, the 9-story residence hall on the western side of campus, is scheduled for demolition next month.
