  1. Allowing Craig James a platform to lie and then run for Congress was an early turning point for that network.
  2. Lived with a UW fan during “Tosh Day Massacre.” I think 2-3 of those verbals ended up backing off, but he did get Shaq Thompson to follow him.
  3. He f#&%ed up with Frost, but his contribution is easily far greater than any of our own
  4. Gotcha and yup. Need some quality wins - as much as I love Creighton spiraling and their fans shutting the eff up, our “best” at the time doesn’t look so good anymore.
  5. And lost early in the NIT edit: or was that 18-19?
  6. Might be slightly too young to recall correctly, but this is more the university’s doing, no? If I remember right, that script “Huskers” became really popular in the 90s during the championship runs and the university was taking action against businesses using that term and font.
  7. The kilt photoshoot was the nail in the coffin.
  8. You don’t have to recruit everybody, just those that listen and our morals and motivation don’t reflect society. Some people were shocked Hugh Freeze got another shot - Auburn already hired Bruce Pearl. If Mickey wants, he’ll coach again and there will be families with athletically gifted teens looking for an opportunity.
  9. Yup. If he had any defensive impact it’s tackling a RB or QB 8-10 yards beyond the LOS already.
  10. His expectation of what “discipline” looks like could usher some current players and recruits out of the program come spring and fall camp. That’s a hiccup I could see this coming season, but I believe that’s a necessary component to parlay future success much sooner. I was holding out that the previous coach was taking this approach, but he just alienated players instead.
  11. Is that a pun about how many surgical repairs he’s had completed?
  12. Someone should tell Mickey that felons belong on the team, just not on the staff
  13. Whoa. Just looked over the drive chart, I’m firmly believing that their punter was the game MVP. Three punts >60, another he kicked 59 yards. Two punts were pinned to the 3, one punt to the 2, one was fc at the 10, another at the 7 after a penalty. 3 of those led to 3-and-outs and drives <50 yards. Good call.
  14. I don’t really have an opinion either way, just hope he works out at NU. Heck, maybe Rhule gave him some ideas
  15. Be funny if Satterfield knew he had two weeks to show something and told Rattler he’d bring him with, hence the boost in offensive production from USC the last two weeks.
  16. The players are making more money than most kids coming out of college with a degree.
  17. My favorite “shhhhh” was after the Kenny Bell one-handed grab and score. Shushed his OWN student section and drew a taunting penalty.
  18. A lot of former players should stfu. Not saying that he would have *liked* him at LSU but Scott Shanle tweeted out Doug Pederson and Matt Rhule as potential future coaches of LSU during their latest coaching search. If he’s so against the hire what changed in the last year, and taking a second hand account “eye roll” is just a flimsy argument. Give some substance. I wouldn’t want PJ Fleck’s personality but I’d like their record. I’m also content with Rhule only being around for 7-10 years and moving on. Build the program for the next person to elevate it. Not ideal, but the past decade has gotten me to that point.
  19. I think basically we have adults in the room again. Riley was one but he was soft and led by incompetent administration. I fully agree with Compton, from the top down (Carter, Trev, Mickey, Rhule) there are adults in the room and continuity for the first time in how long? edit: added Mickey
  20. Let’s see how Trev and Mickey finish out this transition to Rhule, but this should be a smooth change. So much dysfunction going from Bo to Riley and Riley to Frost. All three personalities were drastically opposite of each other, but I’m optimistic that what we’ve seen from Mickey will propel the program in a positive direction for whoever the successor is. I don’t believe they have a “culture” issue or personality flaw to deal with from the head coach, instead learning how to be a football team and win together.
