I just have a feeling that Niko will be able to retain the guys he wants back- at least off of this team. JCJ followed him here. Asuma has been all in for Minn. Durkin is made for Medved's offense. Those are the big 3. I'd guess Willis returns as does Grove. Then you have Vaihola and Omot- who...

We lose Tyson and Reynolds who are both really good players, but this team lacks size and enough shooters. Niko is going to go out and fill those holes. Who knew how good Tyson and Reynolds would be? We will start with a far better returning nucleus that we had this year. Just get three or four...

For sure. It makes it a little less painful as we kind of know that this team is headed nowhere and the way we have played has been pretty. Today was the most frustrating because we played so poorly against a team we should have beaten.

It seemed like the whole game we would get a Penn State player stuck at 5 feet from the bucket and our other defenders would not help as they wiggled out and scored almost every single time. No way that guy should have been able to get that shot off. Easily our worst defensive game in conference.

Oh my. We just can't win.

We are just not a good shooting team, but we have no height to go inside. Us staying in a game depends on defending, and they just haven't done that today

It took the announcers about a minute to figure out that it was a challenge. We should get this

Penn State over the back of Grove there.

Yep and the guy got smoked because he fouled Tyson and got into his space. That was a terrible call.

At least Tyson is playing ball- the other two...not so much.

Asuma....rough start to this one for him. He just continues to shoot poorly and we can't afford that.

His shooting, in particular, is really hurting us. He is now 34% for all FG shooting- that is awful. 30% from 3pt range. He has made a nice step forward as a player this year and his defense is really good but he has to improve as a shooter. He gets a lot of wide open looks because of Durkin...

Yep. If we win it will be down to the wire.

As I look at Nebraska today, I see what we will be in a year or two with more size and shooting.

The U is really good at not appealing to big money guys.
