 Coach [[Kevin O'Neill]] was quoted as saying: " Joe has a good shooting touch up to about 15 feet and he is primarily a crasher and rebounder. He's the kind of banger we need on the boards. His all-out effort on the floor will be good for us if he can control his emotions. He will have to do a good job for us defensively inside. Joe will be battling for a starting spot right down to the end." \\ Coach [[Kevin O'Neill]] was quoted as saying: " Joe has a good shooting touch up to about 15 feet and he is primarily a crasher and rebounder.

 +===== Personal =====
 +"Joey" "Nater" Nethen earned somewhat of a personal "cult" following of fans, endeared by his punky appearance and tastes in music, at one time sporting a Mohawk, and ever-present combat boots.In the mid to late 80's, MU still had the reputation as being a traditionally "preppy", conservative, Catholic campus. In Nethen's own words, "(I) loved to "entertain" on the court". His bombastic personality on the court, and "bad boy" antics and outlandish fashions off the court, are the stuff of many hilarious (and some disturbing) MU campus "legends".  
  
-     +Nethen has two sons.
