    Yeah, I’m guessing he’s gone after this season. He has a family so I’m pretty sure he’s not going to take a $8.5M cut in guaranteed pay just to be able to spend more time hunting pronghorn in Palisade.

    Yeah, I’d imagine he’s made pretty good money between playing in the NBA for a decade then another decade of front office/coaching roles. He could probably say this isn’t worth it, hide out for a year or two and get another job if he wanted to.

    I don’t know. He seems like the type that isn’t happy till he succeeds. Failing in Chicago and failing here will haunt him.

    Up 5 with 30 sec. left and we still had a 0% chance of winning that game. Players knew it. Fred knew it. Whole fucking world knew it.

    my wife had a friend over for dinner and I was watching the game. They were asking me if I was excited that we were going to win when we were up 5 and I was like :yaoface:. First timers to the Nebrasketball experience just have no idea.

    I have discovered lately that having zero confidence in them or football to pull it out just makes watching the game so boring. Same thing happened with football vs MSU. You’re just sitting there waiting for something to happen so you can’t get overly excited.

    I flipped on the second half. She's obviously the GOAT but she's a pretty nice player too, looked like the best player on the court.

    They do look better since they made the change to utilizing Walker more. Some of the post moves he’s made I literally had 0 idea he had in him. Odd it took this long to utilize him more.

    However, the problem still remains they still shoot like dick from outside and miss all their open looks.

    I think they had a chance to cut it to 5 with 2 wide open 3’s around the 5 minute mark. Sparty goes on a 12-2 run then they proceed to hit a 3, steal & dunk, hit a 3 around 1.5 minutes because they only make shots when it no longer matters

    So frustrating.

    The-athletics NBA mock draft write up on Bryce.

    30. Golden State Warriors
    Bryce McGowens | 6-6 wing | 19 years old | Nebraska

    I don’t really love Bryce McGowens as a 2022 draft pick because I think he’s a ways away from helping an NBA team in terms of efficient, smart play. But his talent as a shot creator is real, and NBA teams are interested in his intersection of positional size at 6-foot-6 and playmaking ability. On one hand, he’s averaging 16 points and six assists. On the other hand, all of his best games have come against Nebraska’s worst competition. In Nebraska’s six games against what KenPom qualifies as Tier A or B competition, McGowens has posted a sub-40 true-shooting percentage and has shot 4-for-27 from 3 and under 40 percent from 2-point range. He also has not been particularly good defensively.

    It’s worth noting that he’s playing next to a Stacy Patton-level black hole of basketball in Alonzo Verge, a talented, creative guard who seems at times almost solely interested in pounding the ball into the ground at the expense of any sort of ball movement. The team has been pretty substantially better with Kobe Webster in the game instead of Verge because the ball doesn’t stick. Per Pivot Analysis, in the minutes McGowens plays with Verge, the team averages 101.8 points per 100 possessions. In the minutes he plays with Webster and without Verge, Nebraska averages 115.4 points per 100. Nebraska coach Fred Hoiberg has benched Verge a few times throughout the season despite his gaudy counting numbers — including in the team’s most recent game against Ohio State. It’s possible we don’t get a real read on McGowens until we see more minutes like that.
