Sadler Confident In Return To Huskers
Photo by Scott Bruhn/Nebraska CommunicationsIt’s no secret that Doc Sadler has reunited with Fred Hoiberg and returned to the Nebraska men’s basketball program in large part because of his defensive coaching prowess. To wit: When he was head coach at Nebraska from 2006-11, Sadler’s Huskers led the Big 12 in scoring defense three times in five seasons.
Asked if he’s still the same defensive coach, Sadler quipped, “I better be.”
As he has many times before, he credited his good fortune of learning from some of the best defensive-minded coaches in college basketball throughout his career.
