Eli Rice enters the transfer portal. Freshman Been out due to an ankle injury since the end of January https://247sports.com/college/nebraska/article/husker-freshman-eli-rice-enters-the-transfer-portal--229334853/ This one is a little more surprising. He was getting time and seemed to be a natural ...

Nebraska guard Ramel Lloyd Jr. enters transfer portal Nebraska guard Ramel Lloyd Jr., has entered the transfer portal on Monday morning, per a source. Lloyd, a former three-star recruit out of Sierra Canyon High School in California, redshirted in his first season on campus in Lincoln and did not a...

I know we were one and done in Memphis. But wow I wish I had gone. Had some friends fly down and they said essentially everyone on their plane seemed to be going down for the game. Then just up and down Beale St was lined with Nebraska fans. Said it was such an awesome experience and they felt lucky...

The Rocket Carwash signs are gone and replaced with for lease signs. Finally some good news for this area. What's all the bad news that's been happening in that area? The Library and the Crossroads in a suburban intersection. If the city wants this to actually act as a usable, walkable and vibrant ...

I absolutely loved and love this show. We'd watch it every Sunday night during it's original run. Only thing I didn't like was the dream episodes. Those just weren't for me.

She will be tough to beat this cycle. There are a lot of projects in progress along with GLM/HOA that are complete to tout. Any challenger, regardless of party, would need to show up with some pretty significant clout and vision to have a chance. Plenty of room to improve in areas, but I can't hate...

I think next year will be telling with Tominaga and Allick gone, if they can put together another 20 win season I think Hoiberg will have proven himself here. Obviously we built off last season's momentum when selling Allick and the others on the program. Gets even easier now with the season we jus...

I think this is really good for the local area (and I mean Omaha metro, not just Bellevue). If this had been around when my kids were younger, I would not have hesitated bringing them from NW Omaha. That being said, they seem to be indicating it being a regional draw and I am not sure I really see t...

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?

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.

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...

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...

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:
