Welcome back, Richie Schueler, we've missed you:

"you have to be able to rebound the basketball to win basketball games"
"in Mountain West circles"


IN MOUNTAIN WEST CIRCLES


"a terrific basketball background"
"they determined it was a basketball play"

!

"the sneaky athleticism tool"
"skill set"
"all energy, all the time"
"a high IQ basketball play"

787 - Nebraska at Georgia Tech
December 4 at McCamish Pavilion in Atlanta, GA
ESPNU

Game 46 - Rhode Island at Nebraska

December 13 at Pinnacle Bank Arena in Lincoln, NE
espn3.com

Yes, Nebraska erased an 11-point deficit and won 70-67 on the court, but slightly off the court? Commentator Kevin Lehman was the star on Sunday afternoon.










He started with this:

"This is not a game you want to wear a tuxedo to. This could turn into some mud wrestling."

Pardon?

But that was just the beginning for Lehman.

Let's take a look at the rest of his top 10:

9. "With the defender in his cylinder"
8. "A bit of a rock fight"
7. "Coach, give me the pill, I'm ready to go!"
6. "Put your seat belt on, baby, strap it in!"
5. "Have defense, will travel"
4. "A little taste of the tin"
3. "Big tree of Hurleys, and they are related!"
2. "They look like they eat weights for lunch!"
1. (On freshman receiving a lot of information) "It's like taking a drink of water out of a fire hydrant"

** Also, with Rhode Island up 52-44: "This team will not go away"
