WELL, I GOT LIL RED. PLEASE EXCUSE ME WHILE I RUN INTO TRAFFIC

At least you'll bounce off the cars since you are an inflatable.

I guess I read it as that's exactly what he's saying. Maybe it's not worded exactly right. But I thought he was saying the same thing from the other point of view. If you let your mind listen to your body and quit when you think you can't do any more, you're shorting yourself. You have to make your mind tell your body to keep going.

WTH, I got Flat Herbie. Sorta feel like Charlie Brown on Halloween...I got a rock. But at least I didn't get Lil Red

Good ole Harry Husker...dapper and professional and ready to cheer on the Huskers

I mean i guess when you put it that way it might be, but I think you may be the one taking things too seriously.

I dont know. I think this team was far better than last years team but that was because they had better players. This team has struggled to win games it should in the past and it overcame that this year. I think for a stretch, they did look like an NCAA team. The last few games, they didnt but at a point, they looked dang good. That is more a testament to Palmer putting the team on his back. I can say the only thing that Miles truly did to improve the system they ran was the 1-3-1 zone and figuring out how to stop the 3 ball better. They were awful a few years ago and seemed to get better at closing out on the shooter. I do think the team improved as the year went on. I do think they team improved from last year. I dont think that was because of coaching changing or improving. It was because of the guys getting more experience with one another. The Miles sunshine pushers are one extreme but Seaofred92 is so dang negative. Dude, regardless of our soft schedule, we won a lot of games. Try to enjoy that a little bit.

Sasse can take his sanctimoniousness elsewhere as far as I'm concerned. He's had nothing to say during the utterly dysfunctional year and a half since Trump has been elected because he got Gorsuch and most of their policy goals have been strongly conservative. Now he finds his voice when we pass a spending bill he doesn't like and decides to hit us with a big dose of "both sides, look how above it I am?" The complete and total lack of moral courage on the part of these so-called conservatives is extremely damning.

4.4 for me. Hell, I'd even take a 7 second 40.

Old school Herbie for me!

I got little red too. *sits on a porcupine* I'm like way smarter than GSG

I don't want to be negative and I apologize if my criticisms come off that way. I want us to win every game we play and obviously want Tim Miles to do well. I'm also just trying to provide a point of emotionless evaluation of the team because unfortunately a lot of people got caught up in the win total and thought "hey this team is pretty good!" when in reality the statistics show otherwise. I think a lot of the people view this as such a successful season is because of the poor past 3 seasons. So I do agree with the premise that we have improved over those seasons but the reality is we almost set the school record for losses in a season three years in a row. I just think when you put this season into context and you look at the games we played that really mattered, it was obvious that Miles was outclassed and the team was unprepared (minus Michigan and I guess Minnesota 1). This is unfortunate in my view because I was nervous it was going to make Moos lock up Miles to a long term deal and we would be stuck with this mediocre/sub mediocre team for the foreseeable future. Thankfully, Mr. Moos appears to be cautious about doing just that.

The whole premise of the thread is who would beat who in a fight, FFS.

I think in a sense that is what he meant. The body will always be able to do what the mind tells it to do (to a degree) the part you need to train is the mind to keep going when your body "feels" tired. The body will keep going and do what is asked of it if the mind simply asks.

I'm still a little butthurt over the Whorns owning us for about 15 years, starting with the B12 Title game in 1996. There's just no explanation for some of those losses. And it still bugs me.

Also I'd point out Sasse is one of the conservatives who voted eagerly to add $1.5T to the deficit with their tax cuts, but now he complains about less than due to spending. What a complete and utter phony. Silent throughout but magically pops his head out of his hole when he sees the opportunity to fluff his conservative bonafides and "both sides" us. What a joke. We deserve better than we're getting as a state.

Apt, considering the current voting in this thread.

What a change that we could give up 16 points and blame the defense for losing the game.

Just thought of another one: The int that Tommy threw in OT against Miami and the field goal to win was so close to going wide.

@RedDenver What do you think of this? Personally I really like Bryce. He's been a media darling for any folks of a liberal persuasion that are aware of him. I think he's the best candidate and if anyone could knock off the current Speaker, it would someone like him. Working man persona, great personal story, rejecting PAC money and strongly progressive views (universal healthcare, strongly pro-union & wants to fight right-to-work laws, $15 minimum wage, arrested protesting DACA, etc.) is such a strong contrast from someone who's been in Congress forever and seems to have forgotten his district for his position of power. However, they still picked a candidate before the primary. Are your thoughts different on this because they picked the most nationally visible candidate or the most progressive one? I ask because you posted a story about them weighing in on a race in TX and were quite against the move.

Purely anecdotal, but... It seems to me whenever the perpetrator is white, the question of domestic terrorism is shot down very quickly, almost out of hand. However, when they aren't, it's not necessarily called domestic terrorism, but they sure don't shoot it down as quickly. Often it's some cautious answer about how its too early to tell before all the facts are known. This indicates to me implicit bias is at play. Maybe not necessarily THE cause but certainly a contributing factor. Most LEOs seem more comfortable ruling out domestic terrorism if it's a white person.

Signed the funding bill. As usual, his bluster is just all talk, no action. Trump is very good at posturing like a tough guy, but never follows through on his threats. Also, this: He's just SO ignorant about just everything in general. This man has no idea about any given topic he talks about and he runs the United States government.

It doesn't matter. This is a message board where people like to hem and haw over what a recruiting profile 40 time really translates to

Discussion about procedure and validity of timing matters to some people. If you don't care then that is also fine. Yes he is plenty fast enough.

Visited USC, UCLA, Cal, Ore, Stanford. Will visit A&M April 14th. Will be back for our spring game. Wants to visit ND, UF, BAMA, UGA.

I think they looked fine. They did a good job and had a nice season. If the Big Ten had been tougher they probably end up with only 19 wins but they probably also end up in the dance.

Imagine thinking that playing for Lovie Smith is a good idea.

The nut job appoints a greater nut job to DNA as noted above^^. https://www.vox.com/world/2018/3/22/17153338/john-bolton-national-security-adviser-trump-hr-mcmaster My response: Nothing like war to get Trump sex scandals and Russia off of the front page.

Committed to Illinois this morning

So essentially what you're saying is the people who understand the game of basketball and watched the team all year long without seeing real improvement were correct in their criticisms of the team's performance? And the people who hopped on the bandwagon after 20 wins who bashed the people that watched the games all year long for their criticisms don't actually know what they're talking about? I'm shocked. Shocked I tell you.

Totally, because Trump would probably keep going low and headbutting like Holyfwild

I love this kid's film. There is an attribute that I want people to watch when he runs. You'll see a subtle bounce when he's toting the rock. I know that sounds a little crazy because he is running, but if you train your eye to notice, you'll see it. It is an attribute that says a lot about the players agility and movement. Yes he is fast, but the other important part is that he has tremendous balance. This allows him to curve and change direction without it being obvious. It is a defenders nightmare.

I always said anyone who blamed him for that loss didn't watch the other 59:45 of the game. We had all the opportunity in the world to win that one. Whether it was his fault or not is sort of irrelevant - it shouldn't have even come down to that one play.

Trump is a blob of gelatinous material. He would get winded a minute in. Also, this is why we need a woman president.

How long till we hear Trump say he wasn't really involved in legal affairs and they never even met?

20 year anniversary of no conference titles being next year.

Shawn Watson Shawn Watsoning the 2010 Conference Championship. Also Shawn Watson Shawn Watsoning the entire 2009 season.

Big 12 championship game against Texas when they put 1 second back on the clock to help Texas win. That one game is the reason I hate Texas so much now.

The entire Texas A&M game. You know the one.

I think there are plenty of capable (35+%) 3 point shooters on the roster: Allen (35.4%) Copeland (36.9%) Roby (40.5%) Thor (40%) There are also guys like: Palmer (30.9%) - this percentage is lower based off of the type of 3's Palmer mostly takes. Almost all of his are off the dribble/pull up three point attempts rather than catch and shoot which naturally will make the percentage lower Akenten (25%) - known as a shooter in high school and this will probably improve Watson (29.1%) - serious regression last year without the ball in his hands. I wonder where he fits moving forward and to be honest I wouldn't mind him coming off the bench as I think Allen pairs more naturally with Palmer than Watson The main problem is that we don't run an offense that utilizes catch and shoot/corner threes. We do a lot of dribbling around the perimeter with our dribble weave until someone eventually jacks a tough shot. We also have approximately 0 bigs that can pass or do anything on offense besides put backs or be a black hole once they get it on the block. If you've followed the 2018 recruiting class at all you'll know that isn't changing anytime soon either. If Nebraska did a better job of spacing and ran an offensive system that consistently reinforced ball movement and only shooting 3's and layups this team would be exponentially better. Michigan is a great example of a team that spaces the floor well and moves the ball to maximize the amount of "good" shots. Nebraska should strive to run an offense more similar to theirs rather than what we are doing now.

Yup. Since at least the 2018 cycle.
