Leo Curtis arrived at Nebraska as a promising 7-foot-2 prospect learning the college game.

One year later, the sophomore center believes he's ready for a much larger role.

Curtis appeared in 17 games as a freshman during Nebraska's run to the Sweet 16, gaining valuable experience while learning behind veteran center Rienk Mast.

"You go and play in a tournament game and make a big basket," Nebraska coach Fred Hoiberg said. "That's important... That's great for your confidence to know that you can do it."

Curtis spent the offseason in Lincoln rather than competing internationally, allowing him to focus on adding strength.

The Iceland native says he's gained more than 20 pounds since arriving on campus and now weighs more than 250 pounds.

"Obviously I want to improve my game," Curtis said. "I especially want to be more aggressive and improve my offense and defense."

Hoiberg believes the decision to remain in Lincoln accelerated Curtis' development.

"I'm proud of Leo and I'm excited for the season," Hoiberg said.

With Rienk Mast now pursuing a professional career, Curtis enters the season competing for a much larger role in Nebraska's frontcourt.
