Lots of Sports!

Omaha World-Herald's Lee Barfknecht compares Tim Miles to Bill Snyder. Pretty good comparison. He says "Like Snyder, Miles has created an internal standard of excellence in how you practice and how you play that won't be compromised.
Like Snyder, Miles has refused to put limits on what his program can achieve in a single year, regardless of the roster composition.
Like Snyder, Miles has identified in recruiting which players fit his style. Miles' simple mantra is "he better be able to pass it, catch it, and shoot it."

Miles says that Terran Petteway, Walter Pickford, and Deverell Biggs look good at times but he is unsure how they will perform in a game situation.

The Kansas City Royals should be fun to wach this year. Guess who is hitting .486 in spring ball. Alex Gordon, who has gifted $1 million to Husker Athletics. Very Generous!!!!!

The Husker baseball team beat the 14-5 UC Irvine baseball team on Saturday.Sophomore Josh Roeder saved the win with the bases loaded in the ninth. He came in and got a popup, strikeout, and then a flyout for the Husker win. The Huskers are 6-10 going into today's game.

The NCAA men's and women's basketball selections are coming soon. The men's this afternoon at five and the women's tomorrow. Always a great time of the year.

Is the Big 10 the best basketball conference in the national. Most say yes. I guess we will start to see starting this Thursday.

Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio St.are very good. Michigan and Michigan St. aren't that far behind. My sleeper is Illinois.

Congrats to Rachel Jelden for being named the Kearney Hub's Girl's Basketball Player of the Year. Also good luck to Holdrege's Paige Hasty, the leading score for North Platte Community College. They play No. 1 seed Mesa, Ariz.
