Chadron State picks new basketball coach and Short Takes

Chadron State College picked up a prize today naming Brent Bargen as their new coach. He was previously an assistant at Long Beach State in California. Long Beach State led Division I in scoring last year with app 84 points per game. Bargen is a Nebraska native and comes from a basketball coaching family. Chadron will get a nice addition to their high school athletics as the new coach's daughter started as a freshman in volleyball at a high school in Long Beach State which has an enrollment of 5000 students. Bargen's oldest son plays football and basketball also. The youngest is a 5th grader.

  • Does anybody know where Aaron Brandt from Wahoo Neuman is going next year for college and what sports he plans to go out for? He was an excellent basketball player last winter and he leads all classes in the two hurdle races with exceptional times.

    Nebraska recruit Ricky Henry is headed to North Dakota State College of Science this fall. This is a JUCO and he wants to play for Nebraska when he gets his studies done.

    Leon Jackson may stay at Nebraska. After thinking about his decision, it appears he will remain a Cornhusker. One factor was that NU will not release Leon unless he transfers to a Division II school.

    The Henry and Jackson takes were off of the Rivals website.

    Fifteen college underclassman that opted for the draft did not get drafted. They include Marcus Vick of Virginia Tech and Charles Gordon of Kansas.

    The ACC drafted 51 players followed by the SEC with 37. The Big 12 was fifth with 29. Texas and Oklahoma had 6 each. Nebraska and Colorado had four players each drafted. Only 12 players were drafted from the North Division in the Big 12 with 8 of them from CU and NU. USC had the most players drafted of any college with 11.

    Remember to vote next Tuesday!!!!
