Okay, okay if Moore did leave the team and it was because of Barney Cotton you better believe the room for error is going to be pretty dang short when it comes to Barney and our offensive line play this year. The most minor mistakes are going to be drilled and Barney is going to be scrutinized more than ever. Offensive line play will have to be darn near perfect. If this is true... well it will be "Shawn Watson's last year as OC" criticism times 100 for Barney. People will freak. If true... If true I truly believe Barney will be fired come end of season... If true.

I would sincerely doubt it. Moore isn't going to announce anything in the heat of the moment - his family knows enough to stop that. Several people from several different levels have yet to weigh in on this. There are personal considerations to take into account too, and not just the team. This story isn't over. Several more chapters to come out with yet. I figured I'd have to wait until Bo addressed the issue.

Are we going to find out anything of value about this say in the next 30 minutes because this guessing about whats happened is getting a little tiresome.

Did we practice today?

FIRE BARNEY COTTON!!! (Rabble, Rabble, Rabble)

so what's happening? I'm so confused.

I heard it was Barney Cotton that walked out of practice and quit.

Injured Oh Man! Bummer! How long will he be out? Day to day. Aren't we all!! Tell me about it.

Injured Oh Man! Bummer! How long will he be out? Day to day.

I hope the kid sticks! Maybe this time it will work out. I don't see him decommitting. For one I think Stanton's got more integrity then all those guys combined... imo.

He's giving away our secrets!

This. This + 85,000 more.

I don't much care for ESPN so I would have never knew anything about this if you hadn't posted this. I wonder how many Nebraska fans would have.

The only question is whether Alabama would let him play baseball too. We might have the upper hand... maybe.

Gonna be fun watching him play. The other LB's we're getting with Rose, Afalava, Brown, Love, Newby, Nebraska could easily use a 3-4 defense down the road.

Comparing Martinez's freshmen and sophomore years we can at least say there wasn't a digression. Sure some may say his passing took a step back, but even playing on that not 100% recovered turf toe and ankle sprain the stats are pretty similar. So I would say that his passing is a push. Neither went up nor down.. just a poor passing motion. But he made progress in managing the game with fewer turnovers, ect. This isn't all on Martinez though. If the whole team gets better as a unit, defensively, receivers catching balls, fewer mental mistakes, better o-line play... LOOK OUT!... This could be fun.

Anyone know how the visit went today?

West, North, and East were connected when they did the North Stadium expansion. They are not connected via bleachers, but they are connected via the main concourse inside. Yeah it is possible to walk around the stadium but I think the poster above that asked the question was thinking of having the bleachers being continuous with each other much like they are at Oklahoma St etc. I don't think structurally that would be possible. I would be for making it more enclosed in terms of keeping the sound in though. If you could put a roof type structure (like they have in Washington) and fill in the corners with a curved structure to keep that sound in oh man 92,000 fans would sure have a bigger impact on the play on the field. I think we're going to see a big difference in how loud it can get this season with what we've got done. A lot of blue hair hearing aids are gonna be on the fritz I hope.

So when teams were putting 8-9 guys in the box because they weren't afraid he'd take off and run? Didn't Martinez have 800 + rushing yards seasons both his freshmen and sophomore years? He had over 2000 yards passing last season as well. Seems like a dual threat quarterback to me. It's pretty obvious you don't care for Martinez at QB even though he's the best QB on the team and is why he's the starter. We're trying to win a championship you know.

This really shouldn't be even discussed. Martinez is better then Carnes and he's definitely better than Jamal Lord ever was. End of story. You'll get to see Carnes during the Idaho St. game for sure so you've got that to look forward too.

I see where you're coming from. I watched the video too, but after 4 years that's just who Bo is. He's not going to be chipper old jolly santa clause when he's doing interviews. Personally I'm okay with that. For other people, media and what not, not so much.

Does the team practice today or are they off on Sunday?

Man I love that helmet! And really the jersey isn't too bad. Just wish we had regular numbers instead of the N.

Tradition = Winning Tradition = football jerseys? If it does then... (Tradition = Winning) > (Tradition = football jerseys)

I could easily go through all the reasons I know Bo is a great fit for Nebraska. But it just becomes so repetitive and time consuming that I'll just say this... I support Bo Pelini.
