In post-season play, there can only be a handful of teams that end their season with a win. Fred Hoiberg’s Husker squad did just that, winning the inaugural College Basketball Crown with a 77-66 win over UCF on Sunday. While cynics will lament that it’s not a significant tournament, I (Greg, FYI) choose to view it the same way we look at the football team’s bowl game appearance this past season…more basketball to play means more practices, and more spotlight on the program.
And in the days after Nebraska’s win, with the transfer portal open, the Mayor welcomes several new and familiar faces to Lincoln.
But sadly, the portal door swings both ways (seeing is Fred actually reads this) and Nebraska is no exception. It was announced ate Wednesday that Husker guard Nick Janowski was entering the portal, but earlier in the week, Nebraska wrestling fans were shocked to learn that 3 NCAA qualifier Lenny Pinto was entering the portal as well. That’s a potentially huge loss for the squad that just finished second as a team at the NCAA tourney.
And of course, what type of Husker show would we be without talking about football in April? From team dismissals (we Hardley new ye) to all of the latest happenings from Spring practice. I’ll be honest (me again, Greg), I’m really out of the loop on everything that’s gone on in Lincoln the last two weeks. So I’m as excited as you should be to learn and then instantly react based on pure emotion!
GO BIG RED! See you tonight at 9pm Central on YouTube, Facebook, and of course…X.
