I'm enjoying me some Husker BBall!

It's nice to use "a$$kicking" in the same sentence as Husker basketball, and not be on the receiving end. :D Nice win by the Huskers!
I was afraid to post anything during the game last night because I didn't want to jinx anything. Defense is what made it go last night. Rebounding, assists. A real team effort.

Now,let some of that spherical perfection run over to the oblated side of things
 
Iowa beats the living crap out of huskers. This is what a top 5 team versus one of 5 worst power 5 teams looks like.
Not a surprise at all. Got to get the big guys inside and better guard play.
Now its time to make a run in the Big 10 tournament. I'd take a couple of wins and build for next season.
 
Well, they had a couple game winning streak but they showed what they had been all along to end the season. I suspect a few guys won't be back. I'd like to Thorbjarnson come back. His leadership will go a long way next season. Hopefully there will not be too much attrition this off season.
 
They ran out of gas both mentally and physically. Making up all those missed COVID games and all that travel was too much for them. You could see in the second half of the PS game they were fatigued.
 
Hoiberg couldn't have stepped into this situation at a worse time. He does have some fine recruits coming in and the team should be much better next year.
 
Ouedrago transferring as well as walk-on Porter. Hopefully roster doesn't purged too much more but there are rumors that may be 2-3 more. This program needs stability. Nebraska keeps popping up "contacted list" of quite a few players who have entered transfer portal.
On a side note. Creighton lost commitment of highly rated point guard TyTy Washington and Huskers have made contact with him. He and current Husker Eduardo Andre were teammates so may have a shot. Per another source, if could secure commitment from him one of the recruiting websites projects next years class would be top 5 class.

Not too surprised with Ouedrago transferring out. He was losing minutes later in the season. Opens up a scholarship I believe.
I hope there isn't too much more attrition. I could potentially see Stevenson and Arop moving on as well depending on minutes available next season.
 
Are all these transfers coming from encouragement by the coaches? Or are these people the coaches wanted to retain?
 
Wood and Arop now gone also. 4 departures (3 on scholarship) and no front line players...yet. This opens up some decent transfer options, but how would it affect things for next year. Wonder if an offer to Millard North's St. Thomas will happen?
