  1. Past hour
  2. I care about fixing the things that were bad last year and making the things that were good, better. In that vein, a lot of what we did this spring were plays we ran last year. Those plays were run so much cleaner this spring. The execution was by no means perfect, but the proof of concept that we can fix these things is on tape. It's now a question of taking the confidence gained this spring in knowing we can execute and refining that through summer workouts and fall camp. I don't think securing the football is a talent issue. Put two hands on the ball, they rip it free....those things happen at times. Watching your QB dangle the football out like he's feeding a horse some carrots, that's just not acceptable on any level.
  3. That A$&hat needs fired pronto. What a douche. Why Punish those that are actually acting appropriate during this disaster caused by all these Leftists on campus. Utter joke.
  4. Umm.... Shilo was not the one ordered to pay restitution here. Dion was according to this article: Sanders Ordered To Pay For Brutal Assault
  5. Because turnovers regress to the mean so heavily year over year, they're actually one of the best predictors for this sort of thing....in both directions. If you have a team that won more games than otherwise expected but they had a large positive turnover margin or lost more games than otherwise expected because of a large negative turnover then they are strong candidates for their record to also regress to the mean the following year.
  6. For us to actually be one of the top 25 teams in the country, there'd be a huge assumption that we've pretty much completely ditched the problem with turnovers & false starts in one offseason. I find it really hard to believe that will be the case, but hopefully we at least put a big dent in the problem.
  7. These are both really good examples. Definitely a good point that when a QB intentionally throws to a guy who is covered like glue, that's an execution problem by the quarterback. I do still think that a lot of mistakes the team has made over the last six seasons are rooted in some kind of team psychology/mentality sort of thing. I think that checks out with how our relative recruiting talent level stacks up against so many of these middling Big 10 teams...in yet we're on a seven year skid of losing seasons and constantly rank in the top 5 or top 10 in turnover.
  8. Today
  9. The grades are not the professors. The grades are the students, those grades belong to them for the work that they did. His/Her job is not to "play god" with the grades, his/her job is done, the class has been taught and the grades are recorded.
  10. Hill is supposed to recover in time. Don't be surprised if Bootle makes a similar transition inside one day. This staff wants more length on the outside. They train most of these DBs for multiple positions so they can play at what they are ultimately best at. Hartzog may still make an occasional start outside if needed, but ultimately you move a guy where he's best at, if at all possible. Cooper in his early spring press conference apologized for putting Hartzog where he did last year, citing injuries as a prime reason. He's said he wants him exclusively inside this year, rather than moving him around all of the time. He also flat out said moving Hartzog was about Hartzog and not a reflection of strength at the corner position. Cooper April Press Conference
  11. Looks like a major lawsuit that some lawyer would love to take up against the professors. And, maybe the school should sue them for all the pay they earned this semester.
  12. Truth hurts when you're a propaganda arm of the party.
  13. Whoa - that caught the Fox News anchor by surprise. Can't unring that bell.
  14. I don't feel you can write them off at all. As an example, see a post of mine from after the spring game comparing the final interception in the Maryland game to Raiola's first TD of the spring game. Same play, same read, better execution by both players and coaches in the spring. Did the coaches start making bad decisions because they were scared of turnovers? At least in the Wisconsin game they did. Played super conservative for OT when the right choice was to attempt to win it in regulation. Hard to blame them based on previous games, though. Too many fumbles were just sloppy ball handling, especially by the QBs. The interceptions were a combination of not recognizing defenses, especially Safeties and underneath Linebackers, and poorly executed routes and throws. A lot of the interceptions last year were clean pocket throws. I strongly feel, based on the tape, that the number one culprit was bad execution. Not pressure from the situation, often not even because of the opponent's pass rush, but bad execution. Sims threw the game sealing INT against Minnesota right to a Safety playing Cover 1. That ball should never be thrown against that Coverage, but he did that kind of thing constantly. He just can't seem to read a defense. His third pick against Maryland comes game tied, 12 mins left, 1st and 10, cleanest pocket you could ever ask for......throws it into triple coverage.
  15. Great.... Now the normal students with their poop in a group are going to have to protest to have the grade they earned released! What a f**king mess that should have never gotten remotely close to this out of control.
  16. That...looks like a bulls#!t rumor mill 'source' with no attribution.
  17. Baseball America has a good article regarding post season "bubble watch" teams. Article Link The B1G 10 breakdown is spot on. Here's the Nebraska outlook:
  18. Waaaa...waaaa....waaaaa...... Keep asking!!!!
  19. I’m not sure it’s 100% ideal but with the injury to Blye Hill and theoretical addition at safety it makes a lot of sense. Ethan Nation & Bootle are both of the same build and are vying for that spot now. Probably the two top guys after Hill went down.
  20. He was gonna he a stud too.
  21. Monte Harrison just committed to Arkansas. Was a 2014 recruit and committed to Pelini in 2013. Opted to play baseball after being drafted by the Brewers in the 2nd round of the of the 2014 draft. Got a cup of coffee in MLB with the Marlins and Angles 2020-2022. He's currently 28 years old.
  22. This is just "War on Christmas" repackaged.
  23. Thank you for protecting my new pizza oven! Ha

  25. As I said a few weeks prior, expect Nebraska to appear on these sorts of 'darkhorse' type lists because the numerical indicators are very strong. The spring only reiterated that Nebraska is fully capable of turning last year's negatives into this year's positives.
