Not sure how much of a jab that was. Nonetheless, hoopspanda aka pandatangent should not be getting paid by OWH for writing about his beloved Huskers. I appreciate the frequent Jays coverage from the paper, but the Big Red pieces are Rivals/Scout pieces with slightly better writing. It's funny that some Huskers fans seem to think OWH is too critical of the guys in Lincoln. I guess in comparison with the fluff from the LJS, it is.
Solid pick ups by UNL today, though, even if both guys are realistically about the same level of prospect as guys Doc and Barry signed (I'm sure the same fans who used to love Doc would tell you that these two players are better, and Fuller may prove to be a slight step up). Nebrasketball's got a long way to go, but is very likely to move up 2 to 4 spots in the Big 10 with their new facilities. However, I see very little correlation of what they do with what we do, other than that I'd rather play an NIT or better caliber team once a year than the squad we faced last season and will be facing again this fall.
