  1. Hard not to feel like he twisted the knife a bit but I’m sure there were internal frustrations and tried his best to change them. Still, very unfortunate timing on it.
  2. It’s been ugly but it was 27-8 just a few minutes ago and it’s now 27-15. Some life back in the team.
  3. Figured he was a ‘25 recruit when I saw it on Twitter and wondered why we were locking in such a prospect this early in the cycle. But a late addition add to ‘24 makes more sense.
  4. Fwiw I gave you a +1 because I do have some concerns and I like your general point. But there is still a lot of time and there’s going to be a big exodus of transfers after bowl games and then again in the spring with grad transfers so I wouldn’t be surprised if some of that is the plan. Also, I think the numbers are really tight right now and they’re planning for some additions (and subtractions) after Raiola announces he’s coming here.
  5. Definitely like a few of those transfers they got. They certainly have the scholarship room to grab up a bunch of transfers. Vandy WR looks very good. Still not worried about them though. Our DLine will feast even more next year with everyone getting experience and this time our offense won’t turn it over and over. Plus it’s in Lincoln.
  6. Felt like a bit of a tweener to me. Wouldn’t be surprised if he’s a tad short for his projected position. Tulsa seems like a good landing spot for him.
  7. Fwiw there’s simply too much smoke around Raiola for there to be just negative news. I think worst case is Raiola delays signing leaving us in a bit of limbo. But I’m pretty sure he’s N.
  8. Think this confirms we get Raiola but it would have been nice to have both.
  9. I think our NIL is probably pretty underrated at times.
  10. The first loss that’s a bit of a bummer. Thought he played pretty well when he got PT this year - but I also felt that other starting corner spot could have been his all year and it’s probably not a great sign that he never took it. By all accounts though, he brought good energy to practice and I am rooting for him to land at a good spot.
  11. Fwiw I definitely agree with you about Sapp. That looks like a disaster hire from the outside (have they made it official?). But it looks like Loadholt was interning under Bedenbaugh last year. I actually think that’s a really savvy hire given their resources - they weren’t likely to poach a great P5 coach so the next best thing is an up and comer who got some seasoning under one of the best OLine coaches out there. We are still beating them in Lincoln next year though.
  12. A much better hire than I would have expected for them. That conference money is good for everyone.
  13. Ty Robinson got one in the Colorado game and had to miss a half against Northern Illinois. I think that was the only one. Although we probably should have been called for one against Iowa lol. But still like you said, a very noticeable improvement. Edit- I’m dumb, he got one in the Minnesota game and had to miss a half against Colorado.
  14. Honestly wild we gave them their easiest win this year. What a brutal loss looking back. Probably the first real sign the offense was going to be a bit of a roller coaster.
  15. The Illinois game had a lot of pressure on it. If we lose that game, we go into the bye 2-4 with an 0-4 record against P5 opponents. Would have been hard to have any positive outlook on the rest of the season if we lose that one on the road. Instead, we gutted out a win that never really felt that close thanks to our defense. It gave us a nice spark that lasted through October. Might have been my favorite win of the last couple years.
  16. Weirdly feel more comfortable on 3rd and long than 3rd and short. Airing it out some.
  17. Cignetti should be the top choice if he wants the job. Some solid names here.
