  1. This would be a ridiculously good get.
  2. Nance is going to pick during the Army All-American game.
  3. Jordan has been in other recruits ears just as much as Rose this fall. I would be shocked to see this guy jumping ship now.
  4. I was pulling for IU in a big way. Tom Crean has them on the right track.
  5. Agreed. The other thing that would help Doc a ton(recruiting wise) that TO would veto in a heartbeat, is hiring an assistant with strong AAU ties. Look at programs that were have nots, and not a traditional power in hoops, their head coaches have gone out and got assistants with these ties. Hell even some big time programs have this connection. A move like this would increase the talent here at NU easily, whether it was coached up or allowed to stay on the floor after one turnover is another story. Agree with all that. But the AAU is such a cesspool, I doubt T.O. would ever condone going that route, (especially for an assistant..............see Kansas St) I think the reason T.O. sticks with Doc is precisely because he has shied away from that...........(instead opting for multiple Euro's with only 1 good foot). Wasn't Doc tied to an AAU guy in Houston this offseason though? Nothing came of it, but I wouldn't exactly say he has shied away from it. If so, I don't recall it..................got any details...........?? From what I remember reading. It was a guy that started a Houston AAU team. He was some sort of investor for quite a few college coaches Doc, Danny Nee, I think Baylor's and a few others. Turns out the guy was being investigated by the government for fraud and ended up killing himself. Obviously nothing huge came of it Doc is still coaching, but it still shows Doc doesn't really shy away from shady AAU guys anymore than the next coach.
  6. Last I saw was about 1500 passing yards and 1000 rushing.
  7. The whole "were not thugs were gangsters" line was probably the worse possible thing to say during the post game interviews.

  9. Would he be a jumior next year? No I'm pretty sure the NCAA holds fast to the '4 years and 5 to use them.' His 2010 injury came in week 8 I think. You can apply for a sixth year but they don't hand them out very often. Case Keenum is in his sixth year at this point. The main emphasis seems to be on academics. Anyone know what his GPA is? He has already graduated from ND. If you transfer after graduating and study something different at your new school you don't have to sit out a season like other transfers.
  10. The most likely destination for him probably.
  11. It was done to preserve rivalries which I have no problem with. Any change that would screw up the UW-Minnesota rivalry would turn me into a NU hater for life. That's good because you can keep that Minnesota rivalry...Personally I would have liked our cross divisional game to be tOSU first and Wisconsin second. Penn St. will be licking thier wounds for awhile so I don't think they will be relavent any time soon. OSU was always going to be Michigan though. From a Nebraska perspective I would of preferred Wisconsin. Wisconsin/Nebraska being a yearly meeting could of ended up being the #2 rivalry in the B1G to OSU/UM. But considering the history in the conference it makes sense for the two new teams to get paired up.
  12. Tuberville is no recruiting slouch.
  13. Do we have any shot at Polo? I know he was a verbal to OU earlier in the year, but OU dropped their offer.
  14. Come on NBA. I don't want to see Paul waste another season in NOLA.

      Its Sterns way of getting back at the players.

      I hate the Lakers!

      I don't like the Lakers but they did get hosed in the Paul trade.

  15. While I can never root for a NU loss, it would have been better for the program if we did lose. A loss like this is the only way TO would even think of getting rid of Doc. Sans a single digit win season, Doc will unfortunately be back since we just got the new facilities and TO likes Doc. I don't get it. We get rid of Doc who the hell are we going to bring in that's going to do better? That is a terrible terrible mind set that will keep Nebrasketball in the exact same state.
  16. Weis wont stick around long. First slightly better job he will be gone.
  17. Welcome aboard. 6'2" and only 210. Get this guy a RS season and he will be B1G size and ready to go.
  18. So the sports world went crazy today while I was at work.

      I know, right? Andre Agassi was wearing a wig that whole time.

  19. Don't know about that--the year Texas stole its way to the NC game (at the expense of our rightful Big XII title), there were other teams more deserving that would have put up a better fight than the limp-wristed slap Texas gave 'Bama. 'Bama may have been the best team, but they sure didn't earn it in the NC game, which kind of defeats the purpose of having said game in the first place. The other reasonable options for that game were Florida, Boise and TCU. Texas was the only other undefeated BCS squad. I wouldn't call those 3 more deserving than UT that season. You're missing the point--Texass wasn't undefeated. And despite their fraudulent one-loss record (when they really had two), a one-loss Florida, an undefeated Boise State, or a one-loss TCU (whose only loss was to Boise State when they were ranked #3) would have given 'Bama a better game and would have been a worthy #2 over the vermin of Austin. Bottom line, we're supposed to be matching up the two best teams to play for the title, and the two best teams did not play that year. The BCS was created to match the two best teams to play for the title, and it's failed to do that almost as much as it has succeeded. Your argument has a pretty big flaw, Texas was undefeated prior to their game with 'bama... TCU and Boise(both played a weak schedule and don't deserve a championship game berth if another BCS team were undefeated, which Texas was) were undefeated prior to their bowl game. Florida didn't win their conference(the popular argument against Alabama this season).
  20. That would be one hell of a last two months.
  21. Parking down there is a bear. Not sure that 4,000 is going to cover what's needed - but at the same time, it may be too much. What is our average attendance now? Lets remember there will be a 2nd walking bridge over the railroad to the parking at Haymarket Park, I am sure the lot under I-180 will be used as well. There are also new parking garages planned on the new real estate on the west side of the Haymarket.
