- Really didn’t think it possible, but men’s hoops is becoming even more painful to watch
- Pretty sure their effort is bleeding over into the women’s squad. Stop that.

- Dennard’s being talked about as a potential pick by the Lions. This would not suck.
- Major flaw in the list of “most-disliked” athletes: Richie Incognito wasn’t in front of Suh. Of course, being voted in actually requires people to know who you are.
- Pelini’s staff needs to be on cornerbacks Chris Hawkins and Priest Williams along with safety Tahaan Goodman. Those three alone would add to one of Nebraska’s best defensive back hauls in well over a decade.

- Not sure who’s more excited for baseball season to get underway: Fans, the team or Darin Erstad.
- Apparently Tom Osborne met with Erick Strickland in regards to helping the basketball program somehow. Doing so as head coach is the absolute last way he should be contributing.
