  1. While A&M presents a challenge in itself, he leaves his Alma mater on his own terms rather than what he perceived to be an upcoming bitter fallout. Tough to swallow, but he leaves to take the reins over an athletic department that needs stability in the most competitive conference with more recent success in nearly every sport. Pillen comes off like an ex bargaining to maintain a relationship. And at the end of the day, it seems like a good long term result for everyone directly involved.
  2. What’s to the rumor of Gold being named the president and Gold and Albert’s potential for butting heads?
  3. Hoiberg wasn’t happy either and in the ears of refs quite often. Very slow/delayed whistles.
  4. This has been a trend the last couple years, coupled with a few teams coming out of their byes when we played the week prior.
  5. Stinks that both our byes coincide with our opponents byes too.
  6. Part of me wonders if the Athletic Departments want a players unions or some further regulation so the schools/coaches can eliminate the unforeseen variables. Right now is kind of like the Wild West for the prospects and they should run with it until the grifters leach onto their NIL money.
  7. Rhule‘s son-of-a-preacher-man background was ripe for a town/school like Baylor. If Rhule is the man, I really hope the culture in Lincoln is strong enough to keep Rhule around through retirement because this state needs another positive uplifting coach, kind of like John Cook. Don’t need the anger of Bo, the knock off version of Mr Rogers, or the immaturity of Frost. Rhule and his staff will make more mistakes but I have a good feeling he learns from them and adjusts. Outside of winning and winning something big, what else can one ask for.
  8. There has to be something Rhule sees in Satterfield to keep him around. My guess is that he sees enough in scheme/play design (maybe?) that he’ll give Satterfield one season in a lesser (but yet important) capacity to pad his resume and find another job. Probably wrong, but just a thought I had.
  9. Bump. I’m digging for something else, but found this thread and comment particularly interesting and not at your expense either. I think most would have made this statement when it was made - I would have. Baylor had 1 recruit. Rhule comes in and has them top-10 by Year 3. I swore to myself I’ll not get excited about Husker football until they gave me a reason to, but this is another example giving me a lot of optimism.
  10. People have some pretty defensive and accusatory justification over simply identifying how the biggest upset of a #1 team, playing the game in your local market, is not easily accessible as flipping to a channel. The streaming service is a disservice to the casual fan, especially when there are dozens of cable stations dedicated to sports alone. Oh how the times change from when we missed the first 5min of a bowl game because UCONN women *losing* is played on 3-4 ESPN stations.
  11. One of my favorite aspects of last night is simply how this game was Peacock…I mean, of course it takes an additional payment based subscription to watch a local school take down the nations #1 ranked team.
  12. Rebounds, turnovers, and fg’s/% pretty much indicate the better team won by the right margin. Correct me if I’m wrong, but it doesn’t look like a terrible stat line. Appears Wisconsin is just better offensively and NU needs to play a helluva lot better defensively if they going to beat ranked teams.
  13. MK 64 was and forever will be one of the greatest games on any console.
  14. This played out pretty well. Pretty stoked to have two stud QB prospects in the same class. Gotta tip the cap to Rhule for creating competition, that’s the stuff that gets one excited about the direction of the program.
  15. Nope. The county has an obligation to criminally prosecute domestic violence with physical assault, there’s no evidence he did anything. No way Lancaster County would let a man off the hook for DV
  16. IMO, this is more about attitude than skill. Not saying NU girls aren’t mentally tough and not taking away from what Texas is doing, but NU ladies are more talented than what’s on display and need to elevate their confidence and mental toughness.
  17. Asia O’niell has about as much experience as our team combine
  18. Wisconsin had poor defense tonight, they looked slow
  19. I always had a subscription just for the articles
  20. Im just throwing crap against the wall after reading people question why he would entertain a visit to a dumpster fire program. Not asking this snarky, but do you think UGA would cut him loose for visiting his dad’s alma mater?
  21. If a HS athlete signs, what’s their window to backout? Could be a nice way for Raiola to help NU lock in some dudes with the buzz this is creating.
