Obviously would have loved to have won Friday night, That being said, at the start of the year was just thinking post season and primarily towards the NIT. Even that seemed a bit of a stretch goal after where most were predicting us to finish in the conference, 12th. There was also tremendous uncert...

A&M averaged 28.4% from 3 all season and then shot 56.5% last night. Yeah that's when I knew we were in trouble. I know aTm was a better version of Maryland (which was the roughest in season match up for NU) and would have a big advantage on the glass and especially offensive boards. I thought ...

I would add Chicago to the categories.

I hate to be that guy, but anyone else surprised this will be $175 million and only add a net 40k sq feet? Idk, depends on the details of the project. The convention side sure does need a refresh and, compared to other recent conventions I've attended, seems fairly undersized in terms of breakout s...

ESPN Analytics is giving us a 48.6% chance of winning. Wonder what changed. I didn't look at it directly myself, but two days ago it was stated that the Husker % was just over 52.X % 1620 had someone on earlier in the week and I believe he was an analytics guy (if not might have been an oddsmaker) ...

They are probably a long shot to get a bid. Mainly because of the airport and the metro’s smallish population. If anything I could see them hosting it maybe once. Looking at current cycle, 2023-2026I don't see it as a long shot. Greenville, SC, Greensboro, NC, Albany, NY and Spokane, WA are all hos...

And now magically there's a priority candidate to be Univ Pres? https://www.ketv.com/article/nebraska-regents-name-jeffrey-gold-priority-candidate-president/60255138 Anything else they want to magically fix today? Not going to end well... Really? Gold looks like a home run hire for NU. Strong on ac...

The KC Star is reporting it will cost $487 million to build.

Sure, he is the Washington AD, but only been there for six months. Not stating that as a good or a bad thing, but it is fact Saw that when he was at Tulane he supposedly got to know Rhule pretty well. Was also very successful at Northern Iowa. Was Athletic Director of the Year while there. Wonder i...

Still can’t believe Alberts left. I think the university took him for granted because he was an alum. They probably thought he would never leave. The athletic department’s been cursed for a while now, except for the volleyball team. This is basically what I’m thinking it came down to. Not so much t...

They were talking about this on Sharp and Handley this morning. Discussing Nebraska being in the top 15 in men's basketball coaching salaries going forward:

Wasn't there some concern that Papillion Commons at 84th & 370 would cannibalize the customers and brands of Shadow Lake Towne Center? Yeah there was. I think that's going to be much more on the residential side of things. Papillion Commons probably wasn't on the radar of the stores that have g...

Between Rhule's press conference yesterday and Hoiberg signing the extension today, that's exactly what the Doctor ordered for the Big Red faithful.

Back to the Big 10 tournament for a moment. Obviously, the tournament's primary locations have been Indy and Chicago and been successful in both places. I think going forward you will still see an occasional trip out east since the BIg 10 has eastern time zone schools. I also think it will end up i...

But, my comment about Cletus and Ethel is how it makes people look like hicks with nothing else to do when you get that excited over fast casual food just because it's something new. That seems fairly normal. Remember the wait to be seated at IHOP when it first returned to Omaha? Remember the drive...

Rod Yates’ ‘Good Life’ vision grows further to $5B, 3,000 acres. He’s got fans, critics, history. Cindy Gonzalez Rod Yates walked his way onto a Huskers split end spot in the early 1980s and has been making bold moves ever since to try to nail the next big play.

Great info from the mayor.

Back to the garages talk. I don't think they will free up any currently available spaces until the development fills up. I know there was an office building planned next to HDR in the space that currently has the sand volleyball courts. Seems like that might have fallen through but I imagine they w...

Nebraska star recruit/signee had a great post season. They ended up losing in the final though, which would have been a 4 peat as they had won the previous 3 state titles. Looks to be an immediate contributor:

The ratings locally for this game will be at an all time high. Holy cow.

Ok seeing enough posts on both ends of the spectrum. Hadn’t planned on going but now I feel I have to. Curiosity got the best of me. Will post after I have tried it.

Illinois goes on to win the tournament, 93-87 over Wisconsin.

Would I have liked to have won yesterday? Absolutely.

That being said, can’t feel bad at all about the weekend. First ever double bye. First time we made the semifinal in the Big 10. And we get extra rest for the tournament.

Illinois wins 98-87. A tale of two halves.

And 3 on Hoiberg.

Gary with 4 fouls Mast with 3, far from ideal.
