  1. I know there are some very intelligent people out there on this board and maybe even a few lawyers . Is there a way we can start a gofundme page or something similar to help out the athletic department / city of Lincoln? The season being canceled obviously sucks, but I hate that there are people that are going to suffer due to the cancelation/postponement of the season. We claim to be the greatest fans in college football, so lets show the world we are. How great would this be for us as Husker fans to take care of ourselves while we also silently use this as a F@#$ you against those clowns Wilbon and Howard? Not looking for people to break their budgets. Just looking for those folks who were planning on going to a game this year throwing what they would have spent into the fund. I haven't set up the account yet, just gauging interest and to see if there was anything illegal about this. Go Big Red
  2. Grant Wistrom/Jason Peter. They were basically one person right? Without hesitation... Read their book. The chapter about the work they pushed their teammates to do in the off season after 96 was admirable. Those dudes were insanely talented, but I LOVED the motor they both brought. Never took a play off and I think they would be able to light a fire under a young defense. They would also push that offense to new levels after playing against guys like that everyday in practice. Not sure how they would fit with a 3-4... but I would love to watch the boys play with some fire and reckless abandon out there. I really miss the Blackshirts of the mid-to-late 90's. Also Ahman Green. That dude was insane and could do wonders behind a line with mediocre talent. Pass catcher, not afraid to run inside and was fast enough to run outside if need be.
  3. I live in VB and will have to check out this kid this fall. His high school always produces some studs and is one of the best in the commonwealth. Anyone know where we are with this guy?
  4. What did Miami do to this kid? I may have missed something in the last 18 pages of threat. Either way... Theres no place like Nebraska... not even South Beach or Coral Gables. ( I mean that in the best of ways)
  5. I'm not a lawyer, but I took some Criminal Justice classes at DONU. Could a Lawyer claim this as pro-bono work and represent him free of charge? Would this still be considered an NCAA violation? Its a 'good deal' for any other citizen...not specifically the next great Husker RB
  6. Kids an incredible talent and I hope all ends well with this. I don't think he could have ever imagined having a video of an ex-girlfriend on his phone would have blown up to this. Hopefully he cleans it up and moves forward. I would hate to have another LP situation here.
  7. I've worked with enough team guys to know they're not all stellar athletes with impeccable coordination, even if they make it through BUD/S. If the guy had some speed, maybe convert him to one of the middle/outslide linebacker spots. At 6'2, he's not short. Look at some of the Husker greats in the LB position. IDK maybe I just want this dude to succeed due to his background.
  8. Anybody close enough to the program to know where he sits on the depth chart anywhere? I hope it works out for this guy.
  9. Guy, I get what you're saying, but look at the last sentence in your post... when have the Dakotas or Kansas been football powerhouses? Minus NDSU no Kansas or Dakota school would EVER be considered a powerhouse. I agree Rutgers and Maryland are head scratchers, but look at those markets (NYC, Baltimore, DC) and tell me they don't add some $$$. I think having them in the conference for other sports is good.
  10. This kid single-handedly beat Grand Island in the State Championship game. It was obvious he was the best player on the field during that game, and I'm a Grand Island alum. I hope he's 'N'. Good to be back after a hiatus. GBR.
  11. I was on vacation in New York and was in the subway leaving yankee stadium after my Red Sox killed them...and i thought it safer to wear a nebraska hat than my redsox hat and had numerous people comment and say go big red on the train and throughout the city that day... it's crazy what a lil red N on a hat will do, one of the comedians on the street even offered to buy my lunch for me (he was a husker alum) crazy lil world...it truly is a husker nation
  12. I was just waiting for the suspension to make it nationally and for people to start bashing callahan. I think that a kid in trouble needs something to keep them busy and out of further trouble. The kid isn't allowed to go into a bar, or anywhere else that primarily serves alcohol... for a college kid thats pretty tough. that is the social scene. i'm sure he's being run into the ground... Callahan is a disciplinarian...and he'll do it under the radar of the media.
  13. I only need one song at the games and its the one, the only Alan Parsons Project !!! GBR maybe with a lil more cowbell
  14. I work with tyronne and the dude is a class act... totally a cut above the rest. dude is incredibly huge, not really tall but is body builder ripped... glad to see him get in the paper.
  15. I'm not worried and i would be kinda getting sick of all the hype surrounding recruiting as well... i think that a lot of people in the state put too much pressure on instate kids... dont get me wrong i would love to have 50 kids from the state on the roster, but let him look at other possibilities... if pedey and co have the facitilities and the staff why would he want to leave...he just wants to have that bachelor party before he gets hitched
