6'4" Guard Nick Zeisloft joins Hoosiers

[rebelhoosier848891 9,588]

Thinking him and Jimbo will lead the B1G in free throws....

 

Very possible-----I just cannot wait to watch our backcourt develop this year---I think it's only going to get better and better!

Nicky Z had an off night against Indy. Trying to do too much. He'll be fine going forward.

We only have 10 active scholly players heading into this year. We have only eight who are capable of being rotation players. If we have as much as a sprained ankle we don't have enough guys to run five on five in practice!

 

If we sign a great student, a great kid for team chemistry, who has logged many minutes against D1 competition, and who would not affect the scholly situation going forward, that's a VERY good idea.

 

You do realize Nick Zeisloft averaged 25.7 minutes for a D1 team last year, and shot 90.0% from the ft line?  You would rather have Tim Priller play as a freshman if we had foul/injury trouble?

 

Let's put it this way; we're on the road in the B1G up by two with the ball with 45 seconds left in the game. Max Hoetzel sprained his ankle and Rojo is back in Virginia for his sister's cousin's daughter's birthday. Devin, and Stan fouled out. Who do you put in the game...Tim Priller, Jeremiah April, or Nick Zeisloft? If you don't pick NZ you're bonkers.

 

'Scuse me while I bump myself:

 

Well...today we were up by three with about 25 seconds to go on the road in the B1G, and Max's ankle is fine.  And Nick only hit one out of two to clinch the win. BUT STILL:
 

Nick Zeisloft = 1) Shooter, 2) LEADER

 

And a big pro wrestling/Will Sheehey style muscle flex as he walked off the court victorious.

did anyone see the tweet on Bleacher Report stating that IU adding Ziesloft was like "finding a $50 bill in your washed britches" (paraphrase).

That seems about right.

Work on those free throws, Nick

Work on those free throws, Nick

Wanted to punch someone when he missed the first one.

[OliviaPope40 6,651]

Free throws in a game are crucial in a situation like that but it is called the charity stripe for a reason.

[rebelhoosier848891 9,588]

Z3 did his part---no gripes here.

 

Besides the 10 points he had some great hustle plays too!

 

He is sleeping with a smile on his face tonight! :)

I was mentally preparing myself for him to miss the second as well and what would happen next, along with the broadcasters' reaction to it:

 

 

"Second free throw…no good! Here come the Illini with a chance to tie! Nunn…OHHHHALJAIEJIFJLWEJF;LAFJ;#@$W#IJOAFEJWIELAJFWEOFJI4J#$#Q$FQ#$JOJF3JFAKJFIWJEFOJ2!!!!!!!!!!!"

same. Didn't accept that we would win till he hit the second.

IU adding Nick Zeisloft was the equivalent of finding a $50 bill in your pants after you washed em. Has been like found money for Hoosiers.

This was yesterday at 3:05 pm.

[rebelhoosier848891 9,588]

That is a great quote----and so true!

 

Z3 was money yesterday!

Our boy Nicky Z's definitely on track to graduate at the end of this semester (or during summer).

[IUsafety 2,775]

I wish Rebel was around to serve up some crow pie with a side dish of Z. I miss his positive spin on everything......
