  1. Well, he knows written English Bipolar. This puts him one up on you....
  2. What should you brush up on? Simple. In order of importance: 1. Recruit 2. Recruit 3. Recruit "Walking out onto the field with the Selmon brothers makes me a great coach" -Barry Switzer
  3. What a price we've paid for the program's internal "good 'ol boy" coach networking. Nebraska's decline started when coaching selection and retainment became based on petty personal politics rather than ability and performance that continues to this day. It's no coincidence this team looks eerily similar to a Solich or Callahan coached team against top opponents.
  4. Cotton can't be canned. Period. He's WAY too connected inside the program. Perhaps a "promotion" to an administrative position in the AD offices?
  5. Nebraska's decline started when coaches were selected and retained based on personal politics rather than ability. It's continuing today with the on-the-field results looking VERY much Solich-like.
  6. After 4 years, I've come to the conclusion that 3-4 losses per year is as good as we're ever going to see. This coaching staff has reached it's level of competence in terms of recruiting, player development, game planning, and during game adjustments. Until changes are made, either in recruiting, assistant coaching staff upgrades, basic coaching philosophy, or head coach replacement, this is as good as it gets for Nebraska. No league championships, no BCS bowls, and no NC's. Ever. In 1992, Dr. Tom was at a similar place and re-vamped the entire program. It took quite a few consecutive bowl losses for him to swallow his pride and admit the need for wholesale changes. Needless to say, it worked. Just blaming the players or the schedule is a cop out and doesn't address much less fix the long term issues. Can Pelini admit things need to improve or will he take Dr. Tom's initial approach blaming "lack of player execution" as the reason Husker linebackers can't cover future All NFL Miami WRs?
  7. "Which is exactly what I said in point 3. Tim Beck pinkeled himself today". I'll drink to that!
  8. Great point!!!! How can we mere fans possibly know bad football when we see it?
  9. My vote is coaching. When systemic problems don't get any better thru the season, that's bad coaching. If some players can't learn and there are no quality replacements, it's poor recruiting.
  10. "Hmm, there were 110 THOUSAND people there. They cited THREE specific examples. I'll say he received heckling from less than 50 people. boo fricking hoo. Then he proceeds to admit that he knew what he was getting into. So the point of this article is __________." -Accountability Ever heard of the concept of "Statistical Sampling", Accountability? Didn't think so. Let me help educate you. In layman's term, what do you think it means if a sample of 50-100 randomly selected people from a larger population all have exactly the same attitude? Used all the time to predict elections. See, even the dullest tool in the shed can learn something!
  11. I suspect Penn State cynically used us to put on yet another positive PR performance to counter the horrendously bad press this scandal has dumped on them. Nothing more. http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2011/nov/12/penn-state-stadium-profanity-scorn-joe-paterno/
  12. http://www.washingto...rn-joe-paterno/ Ask any of the NU coaching staff what happened after the Happy Valley games in 1982 and 2002. Heck, I'm sure there are some Husker fans that would swear folks in Boulder are as nice as they can be.
