Big 12 not looking as good. Toppin, Jefferson, Saunders. That is a lot of star power not playing.

He was born there...

How long did he live there though? Seems like accounts vary

Stuff that none of the talking heads will ever acknowledge

Big 10 has looked pretty good, but honestly hasn’t The Big 12 & SEC too, per se…..

Looks like The Illinois women are about to win too. That’s 11-12 in the 1st round with the only loss being the Husker girls in a close loss to Baylor. And they were 12th in the BIG this year

If a tree falls in a forest……

"Lincoln is a special place for our family. I was born in Lincoln, my grandfather Jerry Bush was the head coach at Nebraska, my other grandfather was a long-time professor there, and my parents are proud graduates of the University of Nebraska. Nebraska has always felt like a second home."

Quote from Fred's introductory news conference in 2019.

That's not the hoiball of ten years ago.

Valuing defense could have gone a long ways but oh well.

Definitely not….they played Big time D this year & they never used to.

 

[Cyinthenorth]

Think of all that Omaha NIL that will be going to Lincoln now.

Creighton about to go the way of DePaul, Butler, and Georgetown

If a tree falls in a forest……

The answer is yes

Arkansas is just freaking horrible on defense...and yes, I need them to cover to win a 3 leg parlay.

 

[FerShizzle]

Creighton about to go the way of DePaul, Butler, and Georgetown

I mean… they better not miss on their next coaching hire.

 

[Pitt_Clone]

Arkansas is just abusing High Point down low.

Doubt that….Creighton has a huge following for women’s & mens Bball both! Wealthy school & alumni as well.

 

[ISU_Guy]

Maybe high point or Arkansas should think about help out defense? Just layup after layup

High Point's on-ball defense may be worse. Getting blown past every possession.

 

[stormchaser2014]

That'll do it

Sir, this is a Wendy’s.

Something about Arkansas I really can’t stand

Already made it. Alan Huss. He'll do well.

 

[bluestarcyclone]

Yeah, that was nuts. Never seen a half court shot halfway down like that. Good for Nebraska though. I used to hate Nebraska too, but I’m fine with this. We’re better off with TJ than if we still had Fred as well…

I've honestly been pulling for fred and nebraska.

Nebraska basketball and football are different. Their football can continue to lose every game. But its fun to watch Fred have some success, and for their basketball fans to finally experience some fun.

Sir, this is a Wendy’s.

Honestly tho. He just lurks in all chats trying to bring up EIU.
