Matt and Mike do some Nebrasketball talk and look head of their season at the Omaha Baseball Village.
-Nebraska announced yesterday that they'll place Butler in Chicago on November 22 nd at the United Center, one week after playingBoise State in Sioux Falls. With games scheduled in neutral sites with Boise State, Butler and Providence, the non-conference isn'thorrible---but there's just one problem..-The problem is that the home slate is just awful for non-conference. Home games vs. Le Moyne, Lindenwood, South Dakota, Mount St.Mary's, New Haven, and FDU is all to show for before conference play---and even the Creighton game is on the roadOur Sponsors:* Check out Hims and use my code hims.com/EARLYBREAK for a great deal: https://www.hims.com* Check out Progressive: https://www.progressive.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
-Mock drafts right now are pleasing to read, because nearly the whole first round is college players---not a ton of foreign players,especially not in the Top 10—and as we watched college hoops more closely this year, the names are recognizable-Players like Darryn Peterson (Kansas), AJ Dybantsa (BYU), Cameron Boozer (Duke), and Keaton Wagler (Illinois) have high grades…Our Sponsors:* Check out Hims and use my code hims.com/EARLYBREAK for a great deal: https://www.hims.com* Check out Progressive: https://www.progressive.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

We parse over Nebrasketball's non-con schedule, and we still have questions as to whether or not Brendan Sorsby should be allowed to play college football.
Cole Stukenholtz & Nate Rohr are back for a normal week after both baseball and softball seasons have come to an end. Softball made the WCWS but went down to Alabama and Texas. Amie Just from the Lincoln Journal Star was in OKC and she recaps the amazing season. Plus, Lori Sippel announces her retirement, and Jordy Frahm will be joining the staff in her place! Husker baseball came up short in their first home regional since 2008. NU lost to Ole Miss and Arizona State, but still had their best season in 21 years. Cole & Nate take a closer look at the huge football recruiting weekend. They wrap the show by running down the Nebrasketball offseason news. GBR!
We get an update on what's happening with the Nebraska Men's Basketball Program. Guys are getting married, movies are being made, and Hoiberg is trying to schedule high quality opponents.
After an extensive conversation about the roster construction for Creighton, we turn our attention to Nebrasketball's roster. After an historic season, what strategy is Hoiberg using to build on the success?

-Husker Online's Sean Callahan wrote yesterday that Nebraska athletics finished 3 rd in the Learfield Cup standings in the winter (only behindMichigan and Ohio State); and sits at 8 th right now in the spring standings, with a chance to make a big leap based on whatsoftball/baseball/track and field do in the postseason-No one saw the type of year that Nebrasketball had coming; and very few saw what baseball has done coming….softball? Maybe could seethat, but they've backed it up.
