I mean, how hypocritical would it be to separate children from their parents at the border while being on a human rights council? Better stop doing one so we can have our conscience cleared.

Diaco's soft, scared, passive, and play the CBs 10 yards off the line of scrimmage had more to do with that than anything else.

There was no pass rush because Diaco coached the defensive lineman to play contain and not rush the passer. So that's still the same problem. Just with one more degree.

He is trying to make it to the 2nd FNL camp.

Will attend the 2nd FNL camp.

Here at the Oline-Dline camp. Can’t tell who’s here or not. There’s a whole Prep school from creighton. I think G Nelson is here as well.

I rescued a baby robin this morning. There's a nest of robins in a tree branch just outside our second story bathroom. Robins nest there every year. This morning there was a ruckus out there at around 5:00 am. A bunch of birds squawking. I looked out and could see several birds flying around a robin's nest. They seemed to be attacking each other. When I went outside a little bit later part of the robin's nest was on the patio, along with a baby robin. I think blue jays tore the a chunk out of the nest and dumped the baby robins out. They might have carried off one or two other baby robins, because there is usually more than one. Anyway I was watering some flowers and doing a bit of yard work while it was still cool morning, and all the while the two adult robins were hopping around all agitated about their baby sitting there on the patio. I kept my distance to see what would happen because robins (or any bird for that matter) generally won't accept their own baby if you pick it up or mess with it. They'll just abandon it. But this baby robin was far to young to fly yet, and I figured it wouldn't survive down on the ground. So I got out a ladder, put on some work gloves, and carefully put the baby robin back in its nest. After that the two adult robins calmed down, and were hanging around the nest. I don't think they'll abandon the baby robin, even though I picked it up. Hopefully the blue jays won't be back. edit: Tonight when I got home from work one of the adult robins was sitting on the nest. So I guess they didn't abandon the baby robin.

His 0 star rating is really gonna pull down our average!

Kid is huge. Also would be cool to get a kid that plays for the Helsinki Roosters.

At first i thought Frosts low ranking was wrong, until i looked at the list of coaches in our league, wow . I think at this point, the above list is about right. That being said I wouldn't trade Frost for any of the others. I think hes the perfect fit here, and in a few years, i could easily see him being top 3 .

Coach Reggie Davis: It is tough to get complete backs to commit to DONU. Coach Held: Hold my beer! Dude is doing work. Completely changing that RB room in a hurry. Lots of speed and versatility seen from the guys they have targetted. Looks like Frost and Co. are serious about wanting to be able to run the football.

Don't expect him to play this year. In my opinion of course, but the big thing is getting him on campus for the academic redshirt year. If we do that we should be fine.

NU 26 and 4th in West and he has NW at 29 and 3rd. He has to be scoring from a strength of schedule perspective.

#26 with a 6-6 record?

What we've all been waiting for!!!!!

Three States of California So the proposal is to split California into 3 separate states. The article mentioned that it was done previously with the creation of West Virginia. There are also, according to the article, provisions within the US Constitution which allows for this. Questions I have: 1) Will splitting California into three states give them more electoral votes overall? 2) If California voters pass this, would Congress approve? 3) If this happens, will other states look to split? 4) Does splitting a state into two or more smaller states mean better economies or is it basic tribalism (only wanting to be around people who look and think like you do)? 5a) Why is this billionaire Silicon Valley guy so adamant about splitting California? 5b) What's his true goal/end game/motivation (because I sincerely doubt it is for the betterment of the average person)? 5c) How does this guy stand to financially benefit from this potential splitting? Thoughts?

As @Mavric said, Diaco coached the DL to push or squeeze the pocket, not to rush the QB. Playing your DBs so far off, and not requiring or wanting an effective pass rush, just from a schematic sense, is severely problematic. Side Note: My goodness, in the last ~11 years we've had: Kevin Cosgrove, Mark Banker, and Bob Diaco as DCs. Three of the historically worst DCs of all time in the modern era have all been on Nebraska's coaching staff. It's sad enough to make you cry.

Eh. I'd say barely having played corner before getting to college is most of it. He should be playing offense. I no fan of Diaco's but it's not like he was lighting the world on fire under Banker either.

Georgia, Arizona St., Florida, LSU, and USC all offered in the last couple days.

Uh... Isn't Fox News the biggest?

Listed as a QB by all three services but worked out at corner at Friday Night Lights.

For the sake of discussion, we've only had a top 10 defense about 15-20 times since the 60's.

Why do people keep spelling Dantonio without the last letter.... sorry, pet peeve... carry on.

Height can be good, but it also has a downside. When you're that tall, you lose the leverage battle, start bending at the waist to help compensate, then lose balance and power as a result. A player needs exceptional footwork to play offensive tackle at that height to use their length as an advantage and not a disadvantage.

No. I was not saying he isn’t as good. I was saying he is the best coach for Nebraska. I don’t think he’s the best coach in the league... yet. I wouldn’t trade him for any other coach in the country, but he’s done exactly nothing in the Big Ten. You can’t just plop someone at the #2 spot for going 13-0 at UCF when other coaches have already proven their mettle at the Power 5 level. I personally think he’s top three, but that’s not being objective.

Ran a 4.58 40 tonight and had a 32 inch vertical

Can you stand up? That gets you starting early on our OL. Oh wait....

Honestly, at this point I am getting Dismuke and Williams ready, and having Aaron as a "luxury". He is always hurt and hasn't earned untouchable by a long shot.

Unpopular Opinion: Nebraska isn't hard to recruit to

aka because coach of the year awards mean very little as a metric of determining who are or aren't the best coaches around

I get what he's saying. But if he was really full-go, portion control wouldn't be needed.

What in the bloody hell are you talking about

Welcome to Trump's America, snowflake cuck social justice warrior. Go cry in your Obummer pillow.

I found this post very interesting. I hate Wisky ... but they have copied the Husker model and over the past few years under Chryst have gone 10-3, 11-3 and 13-1, winning every bowl game ... AND THEY HAVE THE 8TH BEST COACH IN THE B1G ... now that would offend me if I was a Wisky fan. :-)

I dunno. Do you think Scott Frost would rather spend a day turkey hunting with Tom Osborne or deep sea fishing with Steve Spurrier? My money is on ... LINK

Don't know, don't care

So ..... more or less how Bo handled it.

It's kinda odd. We, as fans, have talked about lack of accountability on the team for some time. But, in our own lives, do most of us hold co-workers who are slacking off "accountable?" I would say most of us do not. Because no one wants to be the disliked co-worker. Same applies for these young men on the Nebraska football team--no one wants to be disliked in the locker room. But it is great to hear the issue being recognized as a problem and now being addressed.

Fortunately not all Evangelicals support Trump - hopefully a greater move away from Trump will materialize. I've come to believe that the greatest thing to happen to the Republican party over the last 50 years was the Moral Majority. I've also come to believe that the worse thing to happen to the church of Christ in the USA is the Moral Majority. While I may hold to one of the major tenets of the Moral Majority - Pro life - it has, as a whole, corrupted the Christian message in the USA and has politicized the church. Ironically, the church has thrived (as in spiritual growth and not necessarily in numerical growth) and fulfilled its mission best when it was 'not at the political table' and even more so when it was under persecution. https://www.vox.com/identities/2018/4/12/17216258/lynchburg-rally-red-letter-revival-shane-claiborne-jerry-falwell-jr-liberty-university Between these quotes the article talks at length about Liberty Univ - how it shuts down free speech of those evangelicals that oppose Trump. - Made me think - I wonder how Turner Gill is responding to this environment - as their football coach. As an African American evangelical - I would think he would have some concerns wt Liberty becoming defacto Trump Univ. See statement about black evangelicals in this quote: The bold line below is really important. The gospel isn't politics. Jesus said render to Cesar that which is Cesar's and to God that which is God's. The church's responsibility is to the 'least of these'. It doesn't mean we (the church) don't have a voice in the public marketplace of ideas but rather that isn't our primary calling. The good news isn't political dominion (See dominion movement https://www.politicalresearch.org/2016/08/18/dominionism-rising-a-theocratic-movement-hiding-in-plain-sight/ It is that which is spoken of in Luke 4: 18-19 "The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor "

My favorite PS4 game is, hands down, The Last Of Us. As Saunders recommended: The Last Of Us. You'll want to get the re-mastered version for the PS4. Fair warning (again as Saunders said): Play TLOU and be prepared to get some pretty heavy feels--up to and possibly including tears in places. I have a thread about The Last Of Us, Part 2 which as of yet still does not have a release date. But yeah, The Last Of Us is an absolute masterpiece and you absolutely need to play it.

Got my son a Switch for his birthday. It's his first video game console, so it's been fun to watch him baby that thing and figure out how everything works. He really likes Mario Kart (as do my wife and myself) and it's been simple enough for him to follow the menus and figure things out. Also got him Lego Worlds, but after a few minutes he was really struggling with the controls and reading the instructions of what to do next - we'll have to come back to that one. Overall, I really like the Switch, especially the parental controls and the joy-cons. His little sister was bothering him while he was playing on the main TV, so he paused, snapped the controllers on, and went to his room where she's not allowed to go. Sibling rivalry fighting minimized with no parent intervention!
