WOW.....that Reeves pic in a Corn Husker Uni. What Y'all think? Sad for Reeves if that's what he's shooting for....ouch.

I don't think this is his destination. I'm still guessing that he ends up a Badger, but I have a feeling he will have some bigger visits on the horizon.

So, who would agree another year at old State U. is better than a year at Nebraska??
Current state of Nebraska? I’d stay at ISU. Playing B1G teams is cool until you go 4-16 in conference and finish dead last.

Are there different limits/restrictions on visits etc for transfers or are they same as HS players?

People were probably saying the same thing about Iowa state in 2020:)
No, Nebraska has a bunch of "clowns" on its team now, and also has a pretty bad record for the last few years. Iowa State has a pretty decent lineup and a pretty good record overall over the last few years. Nebraska: 24-67 under Hoiberg last three years, under Tim Miles before a couple NIT bids but just barely around .500 last two years and before that 3 sub-.500 records. Iowa State: 22-13 this year into the sweet sixteen, before that the 2-22 year under Prohm but before that 3 NCAA bids in 4 years with 23+ win seasons.

My advice would be to go to a school with a shot at dancing, and with that said...nebraskie has no shot.

I agree. If I were advising him, I'd tell him that if UNC, LSU, Wisconsin or Ohio State offer a schollie I'd take it and go dancing.

So, by your logic, ISU had a bunch of clowns as well.

LSU will be a probation and most of rhe existing players left. I would pass on this one too

Touche, I forgot that in addition to Wade's termination they would likely face sanctions. Scratch them.

Go to ASU.
Reeves and Horne can then take the Sun Devils to the NCAA and we can live vicariously through that program.

I don't know that the addition of Reeves would be enough to get them over the hump to the NCAA.

Do we really know if Dj and Tone want to play together again? Dan kept on saying that the team was closest then any team he's had before. Dj wants his shots and Tone wants his shots neither is a true point guard and DJ is ball heavy and idk if they played that well together when they were both here. My thought is Tone wants to go some place where he can can shots and buckets and not sure that's at ASU.

Not sure what you think my "logic" is, but my sentence said Nebraska had a bunch of clowns AND a bad record. And was trying to convey Iowa St. had a much better group of guys but had a clunker year mixed in.

ISU? I'd say for the most part they had good guys on the roster, a couple chuckers, but no real "clowns" (I spose Mahorcic might fit that description for me). Some guys who needed to get focused a little more. But for the most part "good guys".

Poor attempt at sarcasm on my behalf. My wife always tells me I think I’m funnier than I am. I disagree, but maybe….
