    No, Rhule  said it was described as a high-ankle sprain on the field but didn't appear to be the multi-week kind. Sounded like we expect Sims to play Saturday, but too early to say for sure.

    Yeah if I am Rhule I bench him for a game for performance. No way you can have a performance like that and have no consequences. I predicted we go 1-11 anyways and I stand by that Northern Illinois in not a game a believe we can win with Sims at the helm. I don’t think we can win with HH either, but if we don’t turn over the ball we have a chance

    Our program has been on life support these last few years and did/does not have the luxury of being able to grit through a long rebuild strategy that may not even payoff. More losing seasons = slipping further and further into irrelevancy, more fan disengagement (especially the younger generations), lower perception and less interest from high talent athletes, less resources, etc. 
     

    We have been in desperate need of a something/anything to re-energize our fan base and recruits FAST. Rhule’s hire, given his slow build track record, was a risk for Trev. So was not fully embracing NIL and using one of the few potential advantages our program has to improve our talent pool. 
     

    Hidden-gem identification and player development is not what we needed - nor may it ever be the solution to get us back into a top 10-15 program. Most mid- to bottom-level programs try to operate this way. Difference is most schools don’t have the same financial resources we have to take advantage of NIL.

     

    Nebraska needed an elite recruiter that embraces NIL and operates with deep urgency to improve our roster quickly. Success builds on success - buy more talent to start winning games now and we become more appealing to future recruiting classes. Urban definitely could have, Deion has shown he would have, etc. TALENT is what wins games above anything else - and we dont have enough of it. It boggles my mind Trev didn’t recognize and prioritize this.

     

    Trev may have had one final shot to save this program, and it’s looking like he floundered the opportunity. But thank goodness we’ll have $300-700M in beautiful stadium updates - it will look real nice half-filled on a BTN mid-day broadcast.

    Trev is booty checks

    You can’t put sims back out there. You just can’t. 

    He’s not even viable as a backup. This is insane to watch I am not sure if I have ever seen a worst performance at any level he can’t even take a snap. I remember Rex Grossman having a couple bad performances with the bears this is worse
