    You are correct.  I was looking at a site from Huskerpedia and didn't notice it didn't include 2003-2004.  If I recall we did finish about 8th or 9th in the conference.  But the point being we haven't really seen any major improvement in the program since he took over.  And, like the football team it goes to recruiting.  Collier has had very few difference maker type players since he has been here.  I really think this season's Big 12 schedule for the Huskers could get ugly.
