Seriously. this game has nothing to do with Hoiberg's job status since this is his first year at Neb. To me if he plays these two players he is a huge hypocrite with what he was saying about building a good culture at Neb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if we really go 1-1, I wouldn't feel 100% safe. My guess is we somehow get the 10th seed, and the selection committee would deliberately put us in the region where UK is the 2 seed.

I wouldn't mind a game against UK with no Ashton Hagans and no bench. Probably more to his "out for personal reasons".

Who hired Fred for five years. But fired him long before his contract ended, due to failed expectations. Man has a track record. However, I do agree with you in terms of playing those guys. For me, Fred is stuck between a rock and a hard place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one expects NE to go far in this tournament even with them, so he can suspend them, look tough, and not really worry about getting bounced earlier than he might have anyway. It would be tougher to do if they were fighting for an NCAA bid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that is what you meant then I stand b what I said and that is that n matter what happens this year does not jeopardize his job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just has to set a pattern of success, is what I meant. Lose this game would not contribute to his history. Still a good coach. But not the way, I am sure his university expected from him and the way they wanted him to go out. Hey.... YOU and I are good. Thanks for all you do for our board.
