Senior Day for the Nebraska men’s basketball team would’ve had a considerably different look had one player followed the lead of some of his former teammates.
That’s one reason Sunday should be extra special for Glynn Watson Jr. as he plays his final home game, against Iowa, at Pinnacle Bank Arena.
He held his word, deciding to stay when others in his recruiting class transferred after his sophomore season. Watson persevered through some tough times, and he leaves the program as one of the most respected, well-liked players in recent memory.
“Just sticking with it, not giving up on the system or giving up on what I had here,” Watson said.
