I don't know about that. It's my impression that rolling out the pocket protection is an even harder thing to block. If the other line was recruited for power blocking, this would expose them even more than regular assignments.

It cuts your throwing lanes in 1/2!

The intention, though, is to at least give him a throwing lane.

You can be talented and not fit the scheme.  You take a HOFer like Dirk and try to force him into a back to the basket, fight through the contact 5 and he will struggle, make him try and be a pick and roll point guard and he will struggle even more.  Only so much coaching can do.  

The skill set needed by linemen to run macs offense is very different from that needed to run the SL scheme.  

 

Sorry, gotta speak up for my man, Dirk here. Dirk actually does great posting up with his back to the basket and does play the 5 in the small lineup. He's one of the most efficient post-up players of all time, good even against bigs. His problem at 5 is Defense.

      I also think the Crown Tournament gave you a better field. If they took Tulane and Boise State, they'd have taken us. Now, what I don't know is if that tournament is a buy-in or not. If it was, there's no way this administration and AD would do that. We aren't under Smatresk or Wren Baker anymore...

      Viewers NIT Semifinal

      Anyone know if we got any revenue for making it to the NIT semifinals? Probably just expenses if I had to guess. Still, the media was better then no media. The extra games were not beneficial to the whole team (like football bowl games) since no bench players played and the whole team basically gets replaced each season now.

      Jason Edwards transfers to....Providence?

      A move like that kills all sports unless you've gotten all of our donors lined up to agree that they will, in fact, still give the same amount and are 'Ok' with using that money on basketball only. I suspect that the reality is that MANY of our big hitters are here for football first and basketball second. Kill that off and you likely lose them entirely.

      Viewers NIT Semifinal

      The Crown that Fox created gave Nebraska $300k for its NIL, while giving UCF's NIL $100k for making it to the final. I did see that Tulane and Boise State were both in this. I wonder if we got offered a spot here. If so, I'd have to wonder if its not the smarter path. At least the winner of this event gets something we need badly, $$$$. The NIT Final Four was fun to see mid majors, but it isn't going to translate for eyeballs, as we just saw. I was impressed with the coverage Fox gave this thing--they had their main pre-game guys doing coverage, and then had their #1 CBB team covering the games in Vegas. ESPN treats the NIT like its, well, the NIT...

      2025 Spring Portal Entries

      For 2025 we have 12 recruits (11 high school and 1 JUCO, I believe). We have 26 transfers in and 30 transfers out (although not all have found new schools). This is what it is now, a revolving door roster although not to the level we saw last year. It will be interesting to see what the recruit (high school/JUCO) to transfer is over time. For 2025 for every 1 recruit, we brought in 2.36 transfers. It seems this is what we've been asking for...to hit the portal hard, but is this ratio too low, too high or just right?
