My eldest daughter's brother (1st wife's son from second marriage), played for Vanderbilt in basketball. Great kid, and great person. Was joking with him on facebook about how crazy this must be for him this year. He might be in mourning today .......

After he graduated, he went to work for NIKE straight out of school, working NCAA teams and basketball. It was a fabulous job because all he did was go to games and talk to college ADs. Got promoted, and went to work the NBA.
 
There is what amounts to a level of cognitive dissonance with rankings from services regarding Nebraska. If you scan the national rankings at Massey you can see this. Here is what I am talking about though, people have Nebraska ranked everywhere from 27th to 2nd. That is a much broader range than other teams in the top end of rankings.

Nebraska is the team of 35 year old men at the YMCA on a Sunday afternoon that smashes every single team of young kids because they simply play smarter and harder than anyone else.

I honestly think the worst game we’ve played this year was Michigan State.
Interestingly enough they are also probably the most athletic team outside of maybe Oklahoma we’ve played this year as well

Coen Carr is the most athletic player in the Big Ten. But if you go up and down the roster, I would argue Illinois is more athletic than Sparty.

The weird thing is the I anticipated having issues with both teams due to their athleticism and Im not sure that when we did have issues it was because of that
