Calmer Than You Are
Meanwhile, in Tim Miles' office this morning...
it depends did Kansas just sink 160 Million into a state of the art and world leading facilities I might think about it. Lowered expectations more money and a more forgiving fan base. Could be a nice spot plus Kansas has proven that they can creep into the top 5 more recently then Nebraska so I might think about it.
I never once was screaming for Collins nor have I ever claimed to even know who he was up until recent weeks. What I have been "screaming" for is a proven coach. I firmly believe that Nebraska doesn't have to settle for a up and comer in any of our athletics Let alone one we just put 160 million into.
My WHOLE ARGUMENT is to go get a proven coach and pay that son of a bitch to stay here. I am not talking about hiring a assistant I want a head coach that is proven and has a above .600 win percentage. and I don't think with all the money we have in this state that paying for success should be given a second thought. We have "nothing to do here" so lets invest in our major revenue makers in this state. College sports and have them pay for themselves with merch and ticket sales.
Collins was not a proven coach before NW hired him. That's why the worst program in the history of College Basketball was able to hire him.
And now Nebraska is the worst program in the history of College Basketball.
Whatever man you're right. I don't care anymore.
cant we get that uCONN dude that has won like 100 million straight games. do you think womens bball could translate to mens?
How many projected starters transfer though? Most of the transfers seem to be guys who want playing time and make a move. That's not really the case here, with half of our transfers so far being in line to start next year. Add in AW3 last year, Petteway and Pitchford both leaving early, etc. etc. Having 1 player exhaust eligibility over 5 years is absurd.40% of all scholarship players transfer. Nebraska isn't that much of an outlier
I'll give him his last year, but if we don't make the tourney it's time for him to kick rocks.
I'm sick and tired of our most talented players transferring away. That is not a Nebraska issue, that is a Tim Miles issue. It's a common thread in his time here at Nebraska. Again and again and again, players leaving to "make themselves better."
We struggle enough to get 4-star guys to come to Nebraska, and then when we get one we can't even fucking keep them here.
Ed Morrow was one we couldn't afford to lose. He's a bigger loss than Andrew White was going into this season. This makes me sick.
