Ryan Kalkbrenner gets his flowers at media days, Nebraska has a lot of dudes

In the latest episode of Half-Court Press, Wilson Moore and Jon Walker hop on for the final time before the regular season begins to discuss takeaways from Big East media days as Ryan Kalkbrenner was named the league's preseason player of the year.

The guys talk about why Kalk got his flowers over the course of the week over some of the other top players in the Big East and some other questions that stemmed from the media days like why Dan Hurley's first-place vote went to Marquette when Creighton finished second in the poll.

Next, Wilson has a dialogue about what he learned from Nebraska's availability including learning that two players are injured but might still play in the season opener.

This leads to a deeper conversation about who might get left out of NU's eight-man rotation as 10 guys seem viable to play minutes.

The duo then have a conversation about both teams' frontcourt groups with Jon exploring the fact that Fedor Zugic may or may not be available for Greg McDermott and is a big question mark at the 3-4 position. 

The guys wrap up the episode by looking ahead to the upcoming exhibition games and what they're most looking forward to watching before Jon closes with this week's "Pressing Question."
