Lisch, yes. Liddell, no.
I think, hypothetically, when Liddell didn't qualify, had to go to prep school and then was allegedly recruited by Lon Kreuger and UNLV, Majerus would have cut the strings. [edited] The palm-balls, the mental mistakes killed us yesterday. My Dad, who was watching the game with me at an area Buffalo Wild Wings asked me repeatedly why he even plays Liddell.
The way Majerus swoons over Lisch makes me believe he would have put on a Nebraska-esque full-court press for Lisch's services. Lisch is exactly the type of player Majerus wants to recruit and mold into a player who gives 110% on the court, is a leader and makes everyone around him play better. I bet Majerus told Reuben a thousand times to "watch Kevin." Cotto had a good game yesterday, so maybe that is paying off.
We definitely know our strengths and weaknesses following the UNL game. Let's hope we can Rock Detroit.
