Nebrasketball 2024-25 Season Notes Thread

Just going to say this now, if the boys end up in Dayton and win, I’m not counting that as a real tourney win.

I believe I would agree with you. I just don't think it would feel like it would be a real win.
It's an NCAA Tournament game so it would count. However, I do agree with you both, it wouldn't feel like a legit tournament win. I've always hated the play in games since they were created.

Boooo!

Tournament went from 16 to 32 to 64 (circa '85), and everyone counts their wins - regardless what their seed is.

I'll count the win, until it happens in the regular field of 64, all because it's Nebrasketball.
 
Time for a change?

The collapse at the end of this season was horrible and should require some heads.
How is he not on a pretty hot seat or gone? Especially when it really seems like we’ll be even worse next year.

One year removed from co-B1G coach of the year. Maybe they just let it completely fall apart next season to make it an easier transition while they line someone up. Who knows.

Yeah, maybe gone is too harsh; I am just letting my view of next year likely being awful affect my current view.

I’m with you. I would love to see them bring on a much better coach and then talent. Looking at the roster it suggests to me that Fred and staff aren’t very good recruiters. It’s a catastrophe as it currently stands and I’m not sure the portal for so much is a good idea with poor high school recruiting.
 
NCST made the final 4 last year and just fired their coach after going 12-19 this year. Obviously coaching matters but it often seems that right team chemistry/players are FAR more important
 
Imagine losing 2 of your top 6 players after the season begins, and still looking good to make the dance. Both were lost well before conference play began too. B1G women's projected to send 12 or 13 teams dancing.

Heck of a coaching job by Amy & her staff.

 
"Not going to get a better pure basketball mind" & the very next sentence is "roster management and talent" are biggest issues.

JFC Reynoldson is a retard 😂

Allow me to remind folks that Tim Miles was fired after a season of not making the dance when expected, but did make the NIT and went 1-1. Fired 2 days after losing to TCU.

Hoiberg - 28 games under .500
Miles - 2 games over .500
Sadler - 12 games over .500
Collier - 2 games under .500
Nee - 64 games over .500
Iba - 35 games over .500
Cipriani - 58 games over .500
Bush - 59 games under .500

 
"Hopefully do better next year" 😂


Screams confidence. Not.

Big Fred believer but something has to happen. Reduce salary + move it to NIL/rev-share, I don’t know. Figured he would elevate Nebrasketball to a different level, and he had the chance this season, and just completely pisseed themselves down the stretch.

Even for those who have wanted him gone, there’s no way THIS particular collapse was what was envisioned. One of the miserable watches at PBA (sans Pickle Smoochers last year) in some time.

I know they weren’t giving us much to cheer for, but place was even more dead than usual despite the crowd size. Stakes were high.
