  1. Eichorst and MR need to exit with Perlman.You never know it could happen. Spurrier just set a president doing it, and Riley said subtly in press conference that some players gave up or not bought in. I'd acually gain a lot of respect for him if he did hang up hat out of respect saying he isn't best fit to coach our team. One things for sure tho, Eichorst is gunna have a hangover this morning. No way he made it through last night sober.
  2. Please stop let me guess your marriage didn't last 7 years so now your bitter Your use of the "r" word is uncalled for. I understand you're a troll, but at least expand your vocabulary. Completely agreed. Back to back post with people using it is just sad. I have handicap sister, you never know who your offending with comments. Imo it's worse than any racial slur. It targets an entire group of people who cannot stand up for themselves.
  3. If we were going to start a qb based solely on his throwing motion, Darlington would be the starter.
  4. Best comment in this thread. I keep hearing people say that they're happy to have Tommy running the ball less this year, but some of his best plays have been accomplished with his feet! Aka Cable Tommie and Directv Tommie
  5. 80/20. lol Maybe we should wear leather helmets too. Ya that cracked me up too. He had some good points, but saying ATLEAST a 80/20 run to pass split would be insane. Hello 9 or more in box and blitzing on every play. But with that being said I'd love to see a 65/35 ish split with run pass. Also I agree that Riley doesn't deserve his whole contract if play continues like this. 99.9% of us when we found out Riley was hired had that letdown and or sick feeling in our stomach. But then we let our hearts be reeled into the false hope. You know the saying trust your gut, odds are it's right. The main reason that most of us changed opinions and opened up to Riley was his experience. We clamor here for just the idea of coaches not shooting the team in foot, and being a help, not a harm to the team. We all seen that in Riley, and bought the whole he did less with more hype. But here we are halfway through year one and you could debate 3 of our losses and 1 near loss all could be pinned squarely on collective coaching decisions. Riley has spent whole career virtually on West Coast with some South and Canada mixed in. Even the biggest of Mr. Rogers lovers have to admit that at his age, previous track record, and being in a foreign leauge that's style is complete opposite of everything he's ever known, is a big stretch.
  6. Which is why it probably didn't happen that way. Can you be completely 100% sure of that? I can't... No worries Walks, he's probably got Charlie Weiss as a fallback hire for a million a year and a Village Inn Pie of the Month Club membership. That made me laugh... Maybe we can get Mangino as OC, a hefty guy at DC, and have the 3/4 ton coaching staff... Ya and none of them would even have to get a permanent home. They could just stay at a hotel like Riley did and feast off the continental breakfast. I'd make a dream staff and put Rex Ryan as head coach, but he went all Subway Jared and gave up... Quiter
  7. I can't believe people are acually disagreeing about the article, and trying to use the fact that Bo's name was brought up in one paragraph to discredit the entirety of the story. The Author was spot on. I just know the checkbooks won't get opened up for awhile, and hope if things continue how they have been, that Riley shows us he cares about winning enough to atleast make a few changes to his coaching staff. One thing I really cannot stand anymore is buddy hires. Riley said he will hire people that know more about football than him, and it would be nice to see. Sadly for all we know that still may hold true even with Langsdorf,Banker, Stewart, Cav, and Hughes on this staff.
  8. I'm sure the hurricane type winds around whole country didn't have anything to do with that. There were 35mph swirling winds, look at Tommies numbers last week. Don't look to much into stats, Banker's still garbage more likely than not.
  9. Ya, so that completely throws out the "lack of talent" and "coaches need time" excuses.
  10. While Joe loves him some Joe and I question what he says, the results and the eye test seem to lend credence to his words. Yeah, but don't you think Joe knows what he is seeing when he sees the defense? He only practiced against it for 4 years. Joe knew today's defense as soon as they lined up. Banker needs to change something, and do it quick. I'm not denying what he said. He also said that Rileys offense in very similar to Callahans. I just remember what he said about Josh Freeman, and how that all proved to be untrue. So if Severe would have said it, you would find the statement more credible? When it comes to X's and O's I would have to think Joe knows what he's talking about. Of course, he isn't some guy on here who is "breaking down the o-line play" from watching the game TV replay. Ganz is acually extremely insightful and surprisingly very nutural. To prove that if you listen everyday, one thing Ganz consistently compliments is how they have improved Tommie under Langsdorf. Last year that was Ganz'job, and he wasn't very successful at it. So if he was reporting out of "spite" he wouldn't give that credit. Look at Damon Benning, we all highly respect his opinion because he was a former player. Imagine if he was on Bo's staff and had that attached to him, would that automatically make his opinion invalid? If you take anything Bishop or Peterson say seriously, you dam well better listen to Ganz.
  11. You can't get much more diverse than blondes AND brunettes! And just to think, all those girls could be the wives of the one guy in the middle.
  12. This is not a rebuild. Riley was hired, not to rebuild and not to maintain. He was hired so that a 9 win season starts to look like the floor and not the ceiling. Very well put
  13. Great video from first day at practice from Scout http://www.scout.com/college/nebraska/story/1571333-video-nebraska-opens-up-fall-camp-practices
  14. Ya don't feel bad, I was in your shoes a year ago. I would read comments all the time of people and loved their opinions, Just to get hammered as a newb and felt unwelcomed. Usually by people whose opinions you respect the most which was worse. Word of advice tho, don't EVER misspell words, use improper spelling/punctuation, or let your phone auto correct words wrong, because you will get hammered.That is why i read EVERYDAY for over 2 years but keep too myself! GBR!!
  15. Sorry, but things like this bother me. I'm not really sure why since I'm a Math teacher and not an English teacher yaYeah, I'm sorry now, or in future for any typo's. I do all my huskerboard reading and writing at work on break, so im I'm very pressed for time. But ill I'll be the first to admit that English was not my favorite subject in school. In fact its it's the only class i that I really didnt like honestly. Last time that I do that to you! Just having some fun. In all seriousness, I really like the look of this kid. I think he is going to be a huge contributor to the team. I love the way this class is starting to shape up. I just hope they can keep up the momentum and keep all of the kids committed! Okay, I get the point. Correct me if I'm wrong.
