Nebraska is super young and just 12-16 this year, but they're better than their record indicates and have beaten Purdue at home and Maryland and Indiana on the road. They're a poor jump shooting team and lack true scorers outside of their two guards, Glynn Watson and Tai Webster. Nebraska's a good offensive rebounding team so Jordan Murphy will need to continue his run of improved defensive rebounding. They're also a decent team defensively.

Visitors today are Race Thompson, Tre Jones, AJ Green, Tyrell Terry, and Daniel Oturu. Thompson of course is a huge 2018 targets, and the Gophers are in a good spot for him. Jones was kind of an afterthought and he hasn't listed Minnesota as one of the programs recruiting him the hardest in a long time, but with the recent success, maybe the story will change. Everyone still thinks Arizona and Duke are the leaders, though. AJ Green is a Rivals150 point guard from Cedar Falls who visited earlier this year. Tyrell Terry is a high IQ point guard that has the potential to be a Rivals150 player.

Also, the NCAA March Madness Instagram story will be at the Barn today. The last three games they were at were Baylor, Kentucky, and Louisville.
