  1. Never thought a thread I started would ever have gotten 10k views. Darn I miss sock puppet! At least he was darn entertaining!
  2. First Nebraska game ever. 1995. Nebraska home vs mizzou i had 50 yard line 6 row tickets!!!! I got to see Ahman Green boat race Mizzou. It was glorious
  3. Least that is story Balfour and appraiser told me separately
  4. 14 years ago I always dreamed of having a piece of Nebraska. I found a National championship ring for sale but was wary of a fake. So I called Balfour. Balfour confirmed ring was real and told me this story which my appraiser confirmed. Apparently the ring is one of Lance Brown wr rings. Lane would tell Balfour he lost a ring then get a new one made and then sell it on line. He did this 3 times. So if Nebraska 150 rings in 97 then that year they made 153. Balfour stated it was 100 percent same as all the 97 rings. Since lance did this the ncaa put in the Lance Brown rule where if u want to get ur broken or lost ring replacement you have to have athletic director permission. So my appraiser finds this out and tells me that essentially this ring is priceless because it can’t be replaced by normal person. All ncaa rings are with roughy 500$ in 10k gold but the intrinsic value of this ring with a National championship and the irreplaceable nature of it makes it more valuable. Like a misprint of money at mint.
  5. Trust me. He has already held it. After awesome awesome advice. And my son saying it will help him remember me when he is old. I’m gonna keep it. If if someone wants to hear the story of the ring. I’ll share
  6. I am now rethinking my position about selling it that I had yesterday. Good advice so far
  7. That’s an awesome post tg. Your right it is a piece of my heart. And don’t need the money. Just felt a lil guilty for having a toy per se that could maybe put to better use if liquidated. I am still on fence but leaning towards keeping it unless I was made an unbelievable offer in the future
  8. It does have a wonderful story. Told it once on 1620 unsportsmanlike conduct but had never shared story outside of family before that. It would be in thousands range. I love having it but it but feel a parental responsibility to despose of item for benefit of my child. It is cool to have though!!
  9. Hey all on the horns of a little dilemma. About 14 years ago I acquired my one piece of Husker memorabilia that I always desired. A National championship ring. 1997 to be exact. I loved the Huskers since I was in diapers and it was a dream item. Of course I was single and had disposable income. Now onto to my dilemma. Now I’m married, have a child and the ring sits in a safe deposit box. I bring it out maybe once every couple of years to show Husker family that haven’t seen it yet. Im wondering if it’s time to sell the item or hold onto it? As I said It’s in a safe deposit box and I’m wondering if the responsible adult thing would be sell it and take that money and invest it for my son. I’ve had my years of enjoyment and it has a great story attached to it. I don’t NEED to sell it but I have a gut feeling it might be time to pass on to another owner?
  10. Does anyone know why we haven’t named a new S&C coach yet? Is it because Zach is getting the UCF guys ready for bowl game?
  11. I’m N. Time to come together
  12. Forgot to add. I would have fired him after Minnesota game (but that’s why I’m not the ad) crow isn’t bad if u can handle the feathers as I swallow it down
  13. I would have fired him after Minnesota game. But I cannot deny moos results. Crow isn’t bad if u can handle the feathers going down.
  14. I didn’t say he had. Just was asking Hedley if there is a chance it’s signed and maybe sitting in moos drawer. We all have heard it’s a done deal via Lars, espn guy. So was wondering if Hedley sources knew yet
  15. Sure was!!! And you have zero clue he hasn’t or he wouldn’t. I have been wanting frost at NU for years and will feel better once his signature is onnpaper
  16. Hedley. Any chance frost has already signed the contract but they haven’t and won’t announce it till after game? I’d feel great if I knew ink has gone to paper yet. Can you ask ur people??
  17. Any one have a link for the press conference? Is it gonna be on btn?
  18. Valid point. But as a coach you have to be decisive and he knows the sooner he states he is staying at UCF the madness is over. If his intentions were to stay. He would have announced it.
  19. If Frost was intending on staying at UCF don’t you believe he would have already stated so to the media? This would take him out of picture and end the madness. But he hasn’t. If he had signed an4.4 to 5 million dollar extension with UCF don’t you think Ad white would be wagging it in our faces? If stories are are true Scott has turned down Florida twice. You think the third time he would say yes? You ask then”it” girl to the dance twice and she says no. Do you think asking her a third time changes her answer? i believe hedley. Scott will be a Husker soon. My opinion
  20. We need a Nebraska like bat signal to appear when Hedley has updated news!!!
  21. This of course is just a guess. But doesn’t Frost have 3 Nebraska guys already on his staff? It would be very hard in my opinion to believe that if given the option to come back to Nebraska that he wouldn’t do it. 1. More money. 2. More money for his assistants and 3. He and 3 of his coaches could come home to Nebraska. Plus Rittenburg is showing that Nebraska will push hard and make him an offer he just might can’t refuse. I don’t agree with Damon Benning for many reasons. 1. I don’t believe the job will be open the next time he might want it. 2. I personally think Damon holds a grudge internally that Frosts involvement with LP gf and what happened led him down the path to LP demise. Just a theory on why he is dismissing Frost.
  22. Did anyone hear what Matt Davison said on tbl with sevier? I was driving and missed it. Appreciate a synopsis. Ty
  23. Mods. If sock isn’t gonna post. Let’s close this thread. Same stuff being mentioned elsewhere now
  24. Except for those two coaches in major conferences fired already. Yeah. Doesn’t happen
