  2. Oh give me a break. Republicans controlled everything for two years when policies were put in place causing this. Over those years, not one branch of the goverment gave one turd about the deficite. Trump himself claimed to be the “king of debt” while campaigning and republicans didn’t care. This doesnt have one thing to do with a congress that won’t work with trump. And, if he doesn’t want “hatred”, stop being a disgusting incompetent lying idiot.

  3. I don’t understand why this wouldn’t attract a top coach. This team just went 3-14 in tge last half of the season and this is what the team saw when they took the court. On top of that, they have the best practice facilities ...etc. teams without tradition typically don’t have this. Plus, I think the program is poised to spend what it takes.

  4. hskerprid I think more people here agree with you than not, s don't be so quick to put up the gloves. What I find interesting is that you feel the way that we get back to that normal is to become more conservative, go back to what worked in the 1940's. Don't you think there is some value in recognizing that as the clock moves forward and the world changes, we have to change our approach and reevaluate what we need? We need to reevaluate who we are ... we are not the same america as we were in the 1940's. BUT, if you think post WWII was an example worth looking at as a strong period in america, we had a big surge in immigration during that time, recognizing that the people suffering from horrific circumstances in Europe needed to get out and coming to america was a safe harbor. Did you think that was part of what made us great then? We had communities helping each other, women working in factories to support their families while husbands were overseas, government food kitchens, food stamps and rations etc. A lot of what was happening then would be what some conservatives would disgustingly call "socialism" today. Yet it's part of the glue that brought us together then. Men came back and were awarded GI Bils and ways to purchase a first home. It was a strong time for america, because we cared about all americans and helping each other out. And we cared about the people who were new to our country, we wanted to welcome them and show them that what they heard about the US was real. That it is the greatest country in the world, that opportunities are available for those that work hard. But if you attempted to roll any of those ideas out now you'd get accused of being a liberal and get to join the fun club here where we chastise people, berate them and then pat ourselves on the backs with witty repartee.

  5. The farther left this country slides the more it no longer even remotely resembles America. Don't kid yourselves either. Russia is sitting back and enjoying the demise of a once great nation. When do we become Americans again and realize that overly liberal ideas and overly conservative ideas are not to the answer. The threat of our southern borders being overwhelmed by those that this country can't support is real. We're slowly being pulled apart from the inside. I'm sure that I'll be chastised by the overwhelming majority of posters here that are liberal Democrats. Before you berate me and Pat yourselves on your backs with all the witty repartee that I'm about to receive. Remember this, during WWll America came together in an amazing way. We were all Americans working together. I GUARANTEE that would not happen now. What happened people?

  6. Probably they could find a place to take ground balls individually but they need to practice a live game to simulate the action of hearing the pop of the bat, getting into position, fielding the ball, having runners sliding at your feet and making the throw to the base. I don't know what those indoor surfaces are. Fielding off of a fake grass floor over concrete or carpet over concrete doesn't give you the same experience as a dirt infield

  11. Maybe you should look at the first sentence and realize that maybe you're contributing to the country not being able to come together. And the part in bold is just untrue. The immigrants coming over the southern border are a tiny fraction of our population. Blaming them for our problems is just finding a scapegoat.

  14. I don't think this win impacts Miles future 1 iota. But it was a nice home win to send off the seniors and for Miles and a bit of payback for the fans. Nothing more except when you can stick it to Iowa ..it's always a plus!

  17. This has been my attitude on it for a long time now. Obama tried to work with the Republicans and got absolutely s#!t on by them and got nothing out of it. He should have tried to go far more left on some things since the Republicans couldn’t have been much worse than they already were.

  20. Specific games aside, the general increase in wins after a major coaching change is said to be 2. Frost effect doubles that to 4. Difficult schedule flipping gains are least 1, maybe 2. Ergo, we win 9 or 10. Simple stuff really...

  23. Word is the coaches really like Hixson and also really like Farniok’s leadership. They don’t sound as eager to move Farniok to OG as originally thought. I still think Farniok ends up inside at some point but it sounds like they have a little more luxury to make sure Gaylord or Benhart is really ready to get in there before making that move.

  29. Exactly, we've had a few games this year where errors cost us the game. Plus, we have had too many SOs. Batting practice indoor is not the same as live outdoor pitching. Starting pitching is looking good. My only concern is erstad pro mentality and to beat good teams, you need to play a little small ball at times.

  32. When is a good hire going to come if you enable the same crap trending downward to continue??? I am serious, what has Miles done to make you so ardent to want watch more of him??? And if the new guy brought in the local kids, I’d bet the mortgage he could get those kids to outperform their limitations and never have to question their effort or passion. Kinda hard to say that about timmyTimmy

  33. Frost UCf offense in year 2 was quite a bit different than year 1 expect the same here sure part of it had to do with personnel but part is due to experience everyone but vedral was a year one pupil heck the quarterback was a true frosh Riley left a team that was as we all knew very weak mentally and physically frost did what he had to do work culture and physicality The playbook will open up with the recruited speed expect more long tds this year 2 frost film shows frost getting his team into plays where the defense has little chance due to x and os advantages, taking advantage of coverages, reads and alignments were going to see lots of false pulls and window dressing this season saw a little taste of that last year later in the season they threw a LOT more in year 2 this year expect to see more of the buck sweep plays here Larry fedora style with pulling center and guard at about the 40 second mark expect more deep passes and seam throws to the tight end off play action

  34. Cant exaggerate this enough. The third leading wide receiver last year was Warner with 17 receptions and only 5.6 ypc. That average should be twice that. The lack of threats last year meant it wasn’t as hard as it should be for opponents to play man coverage. This has an impact on the running game, too. If you don’t fear the deep threat it’s a lot easier to bring one or both safeties near the line. When we really needed to run the ball last year, that’s exactly what happened. If only a couple of these young speedsters can come online it becomes very hard for Big Ten West teams to match that much speed. That forces defenses to play more zone and that then opens up the QB runs and all of the flood type concepts Frost loves.

  41. Well it’s on him and him alone. Dude can’t recruit has no offense planning has no control over his team no teaching skills meanwhile Nebraska gave him a new shinny arena money more money some of the best facilities in the big ten Moos gave him an extra year to drive the Cadillac into the dance and he drove it off the cliff....blindfolded. I really don’t know what Nebraska could have done.
