[Husker] Husker Hoops pound Buffies 70-55

[Steve Reichenbach]

Not quite enough.

At the same point in Nee's career as Collier is now, Nee was 0-4 in
the conference tournament and 0-0 in the NCAA tournament --- the same
as Collier's record to date.

I don't object to the opinion that Collier's record is not what we'd
like --- it isn't.  I do object to the false claim that Collier is
falling well short of high standards that Nee set.

Nee didn't set high standards (despite inheriting a program that had
a winning conference record under the previous coach and went to the
NCAA tournament the year before Nee started).  And, Collier is closely
matching Nee's record in conference to this point in his career (despite
inheriting a losing program with little talent).

Collier's teams play better basketball than Nee's did.  Collier's teams
are getting better year-to-year.  With the better talent that appears
to be coming in this year's freshmen class and next year's freshmen,
the future looks brighter.  I see more promise in seeing what Collier
can do for the next two years than I do in disrupting a program on the
upswing and paying the price of hiring a new coach and giving him
another 4+ years to get "his own players and system".
