  1. I think this is a solid hire. I know many wanted Marvin (including me) but Warren is a high-energy relentless recruiter. Not to mention he is from Atlanta and there is a lot of overlooked talent down there. I lived there a couple years. Plus he has connections all through the Rockies which will help as well. Color me excited to see what this guy can do.

  2. If Petrino can go back to Louisville, then Marvin should be able to come back to Nebraska. Oh and BTW, Vance Bedford d-coordinator and db coach at Louisville to Texas. Means Duane Akina should be available. Thoughts on Akina?

  3. ** I will throw this out......... Can anyone name 1-2 All-Conference (in a BSC conference) or an All-American that has transferred from Nebraska ?

     

    Harrison Beck...

    Can't remember if it was Harrison or not but who was the kid who signed then transferred because his mom was mad he wasn't getting a lot of playing time or was upset he was going to have to compete for the starting position and wound up at some Ivy League school and was horrible? Seem to remember it was that kid from Florida?

     

    Patrick Witt? Transfered to Yale...sucked there...

  4. 2. Quarterback Tommy Armstrong will dazzle in the Red-White game, running a basic offense unlikely to resemble the system in the fall designed to fit his strengths.

     

    In #4 he talks about Stanton being the #2 QB. But I truly believe when spring and summer is over, Stanton will be the clear QB1 heading into the fall. I believe Beck will adapt the offense to better suit Johnny's skillset in more of power run, play-action offense.

    I think that's one thing we as fans haven't given Beck credit for. That his offense is adaptable to whatever QB is in the game. He didn't necessarily have to worry about that at KU because although Reesing weighed like 150, it seemed like he never was hurt.

     

    Back to my earlier point, lets not forget that Stanton was leading last year's Elite 11 camp going into the final couple days. He was leading the likes of future all-american Christian Hackenberg and 9 others. Folks he has what it takes, I just hope he gets his chance and when he does, as Fla-Ga Line says he gets his shine on...color me excited!

  5. I don't think Ed Cunningham hates Nebraska, but I do think he speaks his mind on controversial calls more than most commentators. It just pisses all of us off because we're usually on the wrong side of those controversial calls.

     

    Agreed. I hope our guys have been practicing great form tackling with their heads up! All I know is the 2nd Cunningham says something negative about one of our players or coaches, I'm hitting mute. Guess I better just listen to Greg and Matt the whole game then...

  6. Wisconsin is the lowest National seed at #12 to ever make it to a championship game. And we swept them this year! Hope they can beat Penn St. For some reason, Penn St.'s Russ Rose is like Ohio St.'s Urban Meyer to me....don't really know what it is but just don't care for either of them much...

  7. Thoughts? Could be worse, right? I love Mike Patrick for the CWS, but football I'm not so sure about. I do remember in the late '90s or early '00s watching the CWS on tv and they showed Mike Patrick with a lit cigarette in the pressbox talking to Orel Hershiescher (sp). I lost it!

    Used to live in St. Louis from '06-'09 and I loved listening to Mike Shannon slur his speech worse as each inning went along in the Cards games. What a great color-guy though!

  8. Other than Nick Gates, the only other high school OT's we have a serious connection with are Frank Ragnow and Brian Wallace and those connections are fading a bit recently. We were in on Ragnow early last summer when he camped here but didn't offer him then and he started looking around. He appears to have lost interest in us and may be leaning to his home state Minnesota.

     

    We are still in on Roseville,Ca 4* OT Kolton Miller. Word is the ship has not sailed on him and he has only taken 2 visits, one being to Wisconsin. At 6'8 290, would love to get him N!
