Nebraska Cornhuskers News: Caitlin Clark and the Block N, more
- No, Caitlin Clark didn't wear a Nebraska Cornhuskers jacket on SNL.
- Keisei Tominaga's accuracy.
- Florida guard transfers to the Huskers.
Nebraska Cornhuskers fans were more than a little weirded out this weekend when Iowa Hawkeyes star Caitlin Clark made an appearance on Saturday Night Live. Not because one of the best women's basketball stars in the country was on TV, but because of what she was wearing.
Many noticed that Clark was wearing a black jacket that had a suspicious Block N on the right breast. letter looked rather identical to the Block N that has become synonymous with the Nebraska Cornhuskers. Considering that Caitlin Clark played for the Hawkeyes, this struck Husker fans as might odd.

It took freelance reporter Bri Lewerke to put the rumors that for some reason, the women's basketball career scoring leader was wearing Nebraska Cornhuskers gear, to rest. She pointed out that while the Block N did look like the Huskers' there was a much simpler answer. It stood for Nike.
For everyone asking about the “N” on Caitlin’s jacket from SNL.. that would be Nike lol pic.twitter.com/AWoE1wWu9q

Nebraska basketball fans are still getting over the fact that we won't get to watch Keisei Tominaga rain down threes next season, but a new statistical outlay shows just how much fun it was to watch him. It turns out that he was actually the most accurate shooter in all of college basketball when it came to pull-up jumpers.
Yes indeed, the Nebraska Cornhuskers are going to miss Keisei something fierce.
The Nebraska Women's Basketball team added a talented player to its roster for the 2024-25 season. Alberte Rimdal is transferring from the Florida Gators.
In 96 career games for the Gators, Rimdal averaged 6.8 points and 1.6 assists per game. Playing both guard positions for the Gators over the last three seasons, it’s thought that Rimdal will primarily play shooting guard for the Cornhuskers.
They talk about it before a practice rep. They’re deliberate about it in drills. They keep it front of mind throughout spring camp.
