Who Are We?
So – How Did the Scarlet Shootaround Become?
As huge fans, we never felt there was enough coverage of the basketball team to quench our thirsts. We yearned for a greater community to share the excitement/disappointment with. We joke about it all the time – this idea spawned from a text one day, and we said “Let’s do it”.

What They’re Saying…
First episode was filled with great information on ‘skers basketball. Love hearing these two talk some hoops! #GBR
I have followed and appreciate the content you have produced for Nebraska basketball over the years…Keep up the great work and content, your Husker Basketball followers in Ohio greatly appreciate it.
I mainly cheer for Illinois but have a lot of Nebraska family. I like to stay current with all the other Big Ten teams (although with expansion that will be much harder) and podcasts are a great way to do that.
Hey guys, long time die hard fan here. Been listening to almost every episode for two years. Great work. Just wanted to say thanks.
When UNL becomes the next men’s basketball dynasty, know that these guys were one of the OG pods for all things Husker b-ball. Great analysis and stats! GBR!
Thank you guys for all that you do! I love listening to the podcasts and following your live tweeting! Definitely a much needed market with no one else covering Nebraska Hoops.
