There’s this old cliché in sports that says players need to make the most of their opportunities. We have heard it time after time after time. However, if it has been applicable to any Nebraska Basketball player over the past couple of days, Johnny Trueblood would certainly fit that distinction.
Trueblood’s sudden rise to stardom if you will came in the regular-season finale against Iowa. It only continue to grow throughout Nebraska’s short-lived run in the Big Ten tournament. Heading into the first game of the NIT tournament on Wednesday, I was intrigued to see what Trueblood would be able to do.
