  2. The only real question is were people just tired of voting for her the weeks she DIDN'T win?

  4. Definitely a strong Sophomore season. Hopefully continues to improve going forward.
  5. Here's another report. Not defending him. But that would suck when you already feel like crap.
  6. Not really a Cam fan although he had a great year. But this at least provides a counter-point. Apparently the two interview "rooms" were only separated by a curtain so you can hear the Broncos on the other side.
  7. You're just mad because he keeps beating the Pats in the CCG.
  8. Seemed to be in on Kongbo for awhile then didn't like his attitude when we visited him so cut off contact. Don't think we were getting him anyway. Hughes wasn't making a connection to Fant and the relationship went bad after Fant visited in may. We stopped recruiting him for awhile but then Riley and Thompson tried to get back in but it was too late.
  9. Open for Nominations for Cornerback, Strong Safety and Free Safety
  10. Safety: Deep Coverage - These guys are the last line of defense for any long pass play. They should be able to sniff out the deep routes and keep the opposing QB from finding a wideout with an open field. This poster can add those last few deep thoughts to end a thread or find the inside information from a local city that no one else has heard. Hard-Hitting, Old Schooler - Just like Larry "The Assassin" Asante, this guy hits you so hard that you think you're on the merry-go-round. His posts are right at the center of the issue and puts his opinion right to the wall. At the same time, he's so tough and dedicated that he can play (or type as the case may be) with a severed finger! Interchangeable - Many CB's switch to Safety in the "later years" of their career – Eric Hagg comes to mind. They still play at a high level, and can still return the ball to the house. They have the skills of a Huskerboard CB - quickness and jumping ability, just maybe not the blinding speed of "younger bucks"... This poster is a Husker Football guru during the season and has plenty of info/insight to add through recruiting season, Spring Ball and on through summer conditioning.

  12. Cornerback: Quickness - The CB must cover the WR's downfield, and when they start flying, he has to be right there to mirror their moves, a real Josh Bullocks type of guy. To me, this poster seems to be the "second man" in a thread quite a bit. When someone quickly adds a thread, this guy is right on the new topic and adds his own thoughts. Coverage - Since there are many routes a WR can take, the CB has to anticipate them and/or bait the QB into a false sense of security. When he knows the route, he can jump in and pick off the ball for his own gain! This poster is always ready for a funny "slant" on any subject, and if someone thinks his way is right, correction could be coming up behind you! Jumper - Since most CB's are shorter than WR's, they have to possess a large vertical leap. When the WR is looking to make the catch over his head, the CB needs to be in good position to get his hand between the ball and the hands of the receiver to knock it down. This poster jumps from thread to thread constantly in order to keep himself involved, and can make the stop when a thread runs out of control. Risk taker - This person ought to be one who is willing to let a WR go up against a safety if the opportunity to jump a route presents itself. This poster is willing to work with help from the other members of HuskerBoard, and takes a post hostage and in another direction when it's deemed necessary, but not all the time. Confident-He will do what he feels right and is behind his decision all the way. He posts his opinions with pride, therefore giving you a perspective. Awareness-He knows what actions to take when and where. He posts appropriately and knows where to post everything of course. He knows what hes talking about and the situation Sure tackler - when you're out on the island all by yourself you need to make the play in the open field. This poster can refute another poster quickly and concisely and make a good argument doing it.

  14. Ball moved, wasn't a catch.It's not relevant whether the ball moved. This wasn't an out of bounds play. It was in the middle of the field. The only thing that matters is whether the ball touches the field sometime before the completion of the play. It didn't, therefore it was a catch. The only reason it could have stood is they weren't certain whether it touched the ground or not. BTW, if you're going to the ground, you have to maintain control. Whether you're in bounds or out of bounds has no bearing. Maintaining control when you're catching the ball in the middle of the field means keeping the ball from touching the ground. That is all there is to it. Therefore it's important to distinguish between in bounds and out of bounds catches. If you're falling/running out of bounds and juggle it, you are not maintaining control. If you're juggling it and still in bounds and the ball never touches the ground, you are maintaining control. Rule wording: "If he loses control of the ball, and the ball touches the ground before he regains control, the pass is incomplete. If he regains control prior to the ball touching the ground, the pass is complete." If a player is laying on his back and the ball falls down to him and he catches it, it's still a catch, even though he didn't even touch (or "control") the ball before he was on the ground. If there's an example of any other play where the player caught it within bounds and it did not hit the ground and they say he didn't control it, please enlighten me. I remember the infamous Calvin Johnson TD but it's a different argument because he slammed the ball to the turf. Again, the reason this call stood is because they thought it touched the ground at some point - because that's the only way you can lose "control" while still in the field of play. (Unless of course you're not done completing the catch and decide to toss the ball to the referee or the sideline.) Gotcha. I read too fast - assumed "ball moved" implied it hit the ground. Admittedly a Broncos fan but I said this before they announced the decision: If they had called it complete, they may have been able to overturn it. As they called it incomplete I don't think there was conclusive evidence that it didn't touch the ground/was controlled before it hit the ground. Because it definitely touched the ground.
