  5. Can't wait for a certain HB member to comment about the number of passes that Frost calls in this game and how he's not being criticized as much as other former NU playcallers.

  8. So, uh, about that "angry violent protest" at Tucker Carlson's house. Apparently - and you'll probably want to sit down for this because the shock could kill you - Tucker Carlson may have lied about what happened. Here's the rest of the thread. You can read it in its native format if you want to click on the tweet above.

  9. Living in West Lafayette and working at Purdue I can tell you the mood has suddenly shifted from "Brohm isn't going anywhere!" to "Oh S*&t!" real quick. Half of Brohm's staff are also Louisville alums. My neighbor is Reggie Johnson, D-line coach for Purdue and played D-tackle at Louisville. He and another coach have daughters enrolled at Louisville right now. Purdue fans can talk about how great of a job Purdue is. My neighbors even said to me a couple weeks ago,"Why would he leave when he has auto-wins in Illinois, Minnesota and Nebraska in the division?" The truth is that while Purdue did upgrade football facilities for the first time in forever (and they do look sharp), finally got lights on their stadium for primetime games, and the academics are top notch but these factors do not overcome the city of West Lafayette and Lafayette. WL is very much a college town bubble but Lafayette is as rust-belt as it gets with smoke stacks spewing into the sky. There is very little to do here, Indy is an hour away. The mentality that the Big 10 West is easier to win that having Clemson in your division at Louisville is also a fallacy. Coaches like Brohm don’t get where they are by shying away from challenges and taking the easy way out. Also, they can't sell out games. Purdue athletic department was advertising tickets still available for the Ohio St game 3 days prior for $45. A commercial yesterday went across the screen for this weekends Wisconsin game, $15 tickets. The stadium isn't that big. Purdue fans don't quite understand that their cute little football upstarts hold nothing to the big dogs. Louisville may be a mess but they have better everything but academics IMO. And Brohm has already pulled in the top WR in Kentucky from Louisville. He also another top WR from Indy that is undecided. Wandale may be back in play for him at L-ville as well. I think he would get a quick infusion of talent at WR where he needs it to be successful.

  10. I was thinking about this today. Not trying to take anything away from Martinez because he's a stud. And he's definitely made a huge difference. But he can't do it by himself. And basically every other significant contributor on offense was here last year. Linemen. Receivers. Ozigbo. Etc. Washington is really the only other new guy who's made much of an impact at all. The rest of it is pretty much all getting more out of what we already had.

  11. I always got a kick that Trump supporters like how he "tells it like it is" but then when he says something stupid, racist, sexist, etc they say that's not to be taking literal

  16. Devine Ozigbo spent the off-season losing 30 pounds and getting into better shape. 30 pounds is a lot. I don't think anyone was wrong about him. He was a reliable, hard-working short yardage back sharing carries with the speedier, shiftier featured backs. Everyone liked Ozigbo, but there were probably more people thinking Newby or Cross or Bryant or Wilbon deserved more carries. Just a few weeks ago, Scott Frost had him behind both Washington and Bell. Ozigbo literally worked his a$$ off to be a better running back. Doesn't seem like the kind of guy who wanted to prove the doubters wrong. More like a guy who had to prove it to himself. Glad he's getting the chance to shine.

  21. Frost is not pass happy. The offense has a very good balance between pass and run. Sometimes I wonder why we go away from the hot hand but it could be because the player is either tired or has some health-related issue. To be honest, as long as we keep scoring on teams, I could care less how the scores come. If the pass game is working and spielman and Stanley are doing great, then keep passing. If Ozigbo and washington are running effectively then keep running. Interrupting the pass game because the fans like it when we run the ball is plain stupid. Also, passing when the other team can’t seem to be able to stop us is also not smart. I will say this again: I do not understand why we keep talking about the offense when the issue is the defense. Our offense is clicking on all cylinders and we keep the opponents guessing. Our defense is the one that can’t stop anyone.

  24. It is a very complicated issue for sure. It is not black/white or pro-life/pro-abortion. Each situation is different and requires different approaches. I'm far from being a supporter of abortion as a form of birth control, and I'm confident most Democrats would agree with me. But the Democratic position of "choice" refers to recognition of complexity in these situations. To allow families and medical practitioners the ability to confront these issues, Democrats are fully aware of the potential "ugliness" that can follow. That is why they support programs and initiatives to educate young people and give them resources to prevent unwanted pregnancies. Like I pointed out, if you are for a woman "choosing" to end her pregnancy of a dead child, you would likely support "late term abortion"

  25. Why do some unethically act like the press has an obligation to cover Trump 50/50 positive/negative? He's a reprehensible person doing reprehensible things: Widespread tax fraud exposed Updates on campaign finance crimes Acosta saga Childish response to journalist WH publishing doctored video Revoking press credentials Heartless tweets re: California fires Accusing voter fraud without evidence (again) Appointing Acting AG obviously to protect him WW1 Anniversary Travels to France on taxpayer dime Doesn't partake in planned remembrance because of light rain Merkel and Macron do, because they're not soft Instead, tweets re: California fires Manufactured pre-election INVASION drama, abruptly disregarded after election Berated WH press April Ryan for legitimate question re: Whitaker During midterm campaigns, claims Democrats are party trying to do away with pre-existing condition coverage (idiot or ignorant?) (I'm sure I missed something...) Honestly, has Trump done anything good lately?

  26. Instead of "eyerolling" can you please tell me what you think "late term abortion" means. And if you claim it means a women wants to end the life of a healthy baby 2 weeks before the due date, please show evidence of this happening with a safe medical procedure....

  27. The partisan but jovial Andrew Breibart freely admitted he made up stories and inflated unsubstantiated rumors in order to get back at people he simply didn't like. Breitbart, much like Steve Bannon, followed his ambitions to LA and the entertainment industry, where his career didn't go as planned. Breitbart and Bannon found new careers getting revenge on the people who didn't let them into their club. It's a common theme among the conservative press. But again, HuskerNation1: a story is being reported. Your family's life hangs on who is telling the truth. Do you listen to the New York Times? Or InfoWorld?

  28. I always cringe when someone leaves the program and then a poster practically exalts that we have another scholarship available. Its not that easy, we have now missed out on a couple of years of development and the new guy, if we can get one is starting from scratch. Think about #21. If he had left last spring what are the chances that a new guy would be playing at the level he is now. Granted it took about four or five games for him to wakeup but, personally, I'd like to keep them all and develop them. I know that Mazour and Weinmaster were awarded scholarships this year but they would not count against the 25 initial counters because they have been in school for at least two years. So our biggest roadblock is convincing enough guys to enroll early so they can be included in the '18 class and then get 25 solid recruits to show up in the fall.
