That all sounds good on paper. IMHO I think the odds of us changing coaches and ending up better off are really slim. So you'd be fine with the status quo rather than aspiring to be the best? I don't know if I could live with myself if I had that attitude.

I'll wear red and not give it a second thought. A football game isn't a fashion show, and I don't give a care what anyone thinks about my attire.

A team doesn't win 9 or more games each year of a coaching tenure if things are seriously dysfunctional. You just keep hanging your hat on that absolutely worthless stat while we keep ending the season ranking in the 20's with our 9 wins. (of course people like you who keep pointing this out always leave out the 3 or 4 losses aspect of the 9 win season. I suppose that's not important to what you're trying to sell though, is it?)

Like being one of only four programs in the country to have won at least 9 games each of the past five seasons? Honestly, that puts us in pretty elite company Yes. Let's beat our chest and be overly proud of losing 1 out of every 3 games we play. This place used to be the home of champions. Now it's the home of "good enough".

I'm fifty and have been a fan my whole life. Well........that's not entirely true. I did not pay real close attention during the Clownahan years. I now inderstand why the name didn't click for me. Are you sure you're 50? Resorting to a childish name like "clownahan" sounds more like something an 8 year old would say. And if you were 8, I could understand how you wouldn't remember a very good player like Stewart Bradley. In fact, that would be the only excuse I would understand. And if you were actually a fan, you'd pay attention even in the down years. If you don't, you're nothing but a bandwagon rider.

Pedey was the devil. Seriously He got rid of Frank, so he's ok in my book.

Hello. I'm new here, so I thought I'd fill this out. I've been a member of a couple of other Husker boards over the years, but the conversations there have dried up. I won't always be the most active poster, but it will be nice to not feel like I'm the only person on the board for a change. Thanks for having me! 1) How long have you been a member of Husker Nation? 45 years 2) What/who led you to The Nation? Born into it 3) Where are you from originally? Central Nebraska. In the Kearney area. 4) Where do you live now? Omaha. But probably not for long. 5) Favorite Husker memory? Neil Harris batting down that ball in the end zone against OU in '83 to preserve the victory. 6) Worst Husker memory? Turner Gill not connecting with Jeff Smith for 2 points. 7) Number of home games attended? Around 70 8) Number of away games attended? 20 or so 9) Favorite Husker memorabilia/apparel? Too many to single out. I used to have a Husker themed motorcycle, but I sold it last year. 10) Favorite place to watch a Husker game? (section in Memorial, bar, friends house etc.) South stadium nose bleeds. Love it up there. 11) Favorite all time player? Brook Berringer 12) WCO or Option? Little of both 13) Stevie Pederson or Billy Byrne? Bill Byrne, but I'm not convinced that Steve Pederson is the devil. 14) Lil Red or Herbie Husker? I hate Lil Red more than death itself. 15) Favorite Husker play? Any one that ends in us scoring. 16) Favorite game-day beverage? Beer. Many different flavors will do. 17) How did you find HuskerBoard? (referral source) Followed a link from another board.
