You are very right. We will need to get these guys based on what we know now. However, the peer recruiting they want to do will be much easier if we have a good year.

I don't see anyone disagreeing with that. Fact is, KJJ is believed to be the first of a group to commit that could be an extremely good corp to build the class around. That group includes McQuitty, Holmes, Gebbia Those 4 have said they want to commit early and peer recruit. We have had players do that before. However, this group hold a little more cred than a lot of other players. Will it all work out that way? Who the heck knows. But, it's going to be fun watching to see if it does. And...yes....a good season next year will go a long ways to making it happen.

I am thinking about getting into fly fishing. Does anyone have experience with this. And, if so, have you purchased this combo before? Thoughts on if it's a good buy for someone just getting into it? LINK

Meh.....still not my cup of tea.

You're so predictable that Riley could have gone and hired anyone and you would have said the same thing.

Oh Great, a coach who still needs to learn how the DL is supposed to play.............. I hope you missed putting in the sarcasm emoji.

With all the talk about how deep the D line is in this draft, I hate to say it but it doesn't bode well for VV. I hope he can go to the combine and do something absolutely amazing to turn that around.

Good. They needed a new one 20 years ago.

I'm not too familiar with him. Big question is, can he recruit? I have no idea if he is good. But, I'll put my money on that he is better than who he is replacing.

I wonder if they realize how bad Ogallala's gym is. I know they are supposed to be building a knew one. But, I thought that wasn't supposed to be done till late summer/early fall.

So...if it is him against Hillary, I wonder if Hillary will remind him in debates that he has said before that she would be a great President?

Absolutely....Riley didn't even look at anyone else. He knew who he wanted and went out and got him.

I always find it funny when this happens so soon. Wiki already claims he was hired on February 22nd 2016 as Nebraska' D line coach. So...it must be a done deal.

If true, I'm fine with that.

I wonder if Trump and the Clintons are still good friends.

I hope you realize that he exposes peoples' lies like no one else. In turn, that leaves him susceptible to a counter-attack from other candidates, and the only response anyone can seem to muster against Trump is "He's so rude!" Gimme a break. Ummm....no. You obviously haven't paid attention then. He is a hot head that will say whatever he thinks the crowd standing in front of him wants to hear. Heck, he has changed his stance on issues since he even started campaigning in THIS election. I'm sure that's dependent on who he is talking to. He has not put out any detailed plan to do anything other than build a wall and make Mexico pay for it and don't let China screw us. Wow....that's some great in depth plan there. The guy is an empty suit with a loud mouth. And, no, that is not saying I don't like him "because he is rude". He simply never says anything. I have listened to some of his speeches and all they are is..."Hey....I'm so great. I'm the greatest in all the world....We are going to win...bla bla bla..." Sorry if that doesn't impress me at all. It might get your heart pumping faster but it is empty and has absolutely no substance.

Does this make anyone else uncomfortable? What he is basically saying is, if you spend money against me, I will drag you through the mud and make your life miserable. There is something about that that is simply just wrong.

I think it still is worthy to point out that this is 33-35% of the Republican base witch is roughly 23% of the entire voting population in the US right now. Typically I would not say this about a candidate. But, as you pointed out, he is stuck with his fanatical group of voters and I don't see him winning votes much outside that group. In the general election, I will be shocked if he gets more than 25-30% of the vote. And, that might even be really high.

I won't duck the question you posed to him. If TO were Riley's age, I would rather have TO coaching the team. However, he isn't Riley's age so, with as old as TO is right now, I would rather have Riley coaching at Riley's age. BTW....TO will be 80 tomorrow (February 23rd). Happy early Birthday Dr. T.

Then you're either incapable of trying to understand perspectives other than your own, or you're unwilling. I can easily understand and grasp why someone would honestly vote for any candidate running on either side. It's not that at all. The reason I can't understand is because she's a lying, manipulative criminal who should be locked up in a penitentiary but somehow isn't because of political favor. With pretty much every other candidate, I can understand why they'd potentially vote for them. For example: Bernie - If they don't understand finance and don't believe in free enterprise. If they believe in taking money away from people who have earned it and giving it to people who haven't. People who vote for Sanders view him as a Robin Hood-type figure. Trump - If they believe that he will get the wall built, bring back thousands of jobs, leverage China to order North Korea to stand down, shut down Obamacare, etc. Someone who will be firm on issues both at home and abroad and won't back down. Cruz - Another one that I'm really not sure about, honestly. He comes across to me as a liar and will say whatever he thinks will get him votes. Rubio - Lots of people - If they're impressed with his stances on Christianity and religion in general. If they like the smooth talking, intelligent sounding spokesperson that he could potentially be. Jeb - If they're not appalled by the idea of the Bush family being back in the office, and if they agree with his stances on issues that differ with Trump. Carson - If they want a person who will be (in my opinion) the best person at delegating responsibility. I think he's in over his head and would get pushed around a lot, but I think his intelligence and being very level-headed are a great strength of his. Kasich - I'll honestly defer on him and say that I honestly don't know much about him. So as you can see, I can absolutely see why people would vote for a majority of candidates. Just not Hillary (and Cruz). I'm going to assume that when you talk about Hillary being a criminal that your complaint is about the ongoing email server thing. We can't make people care about her sending classified data from unsecured email servers and plenty of people simply don't understand what the big deal is. There are also a lot of people that simply see it as a smear campaign and after hearing about Benghazi Benghazi Benghazi for the last 18 months it's hard to not fault them. Hey...it has to be a "Vast right wing conspiracy" right?

Here's my issue with issues like gay marriage. I am perfectly fine with people changing their minds on issues. Heck, I have changed my mind on many issues throughout my life. Other politicians have changed their minds on issues. So.....it is clear that at some point, Hillary changed her mind on gay marriage. That isn't that big of a deal. BUT....when she now comes out and says...."I have supported gay marriage all my life"....That is absolute total BS and is just an example of a politician saying whatever it takes to get votes even if it clearly can be seen as a total lie. And...no, she is not the only one that does that. I just wish a politician would come out and say "hey, at one point in my life I was against gay marriage. However, since then, I have listened and learned more about the issue and have changed my mind." That would garner one heck of a lot more respect from me than the crap she (and others) spew.

And, with the normal attrition that happens every year, I would expect we should be able to take 27-28 next year.

Hell....that's how I see both of them. Can not figure out why anyone would vote for either one.

As to your second sentence, it's make believe. He was asked a question about Donald Trump, and responded with an answer about Donald Trump. Per your posts in this thread, am I to conclude that you have a focus on God? You seem to be mentioning God quite a bit in your responses. As to the superstition, I would love to see your empirical findings of how exactly it is superstition. If you have something to say, say it. I can handle it. I already said it. You quoted it up above there ^. It's almost always amusing and interesting to see when people show up throwing their weight around, dismissing others, and expecting to be taken seriously when they have no clout in the community or just pop up out of nowhere. Hmmm, the only thread where I have mentioned God is one with a pretty high religious component in it. Go ahead. Check. It would appear that you are looking to try and promote a false image of me which is pretty typical of one who doesn't like their outlook questioned. It doesn't take a genius to figure out that the Pope and God have quite a relationship now does it. I will concede that the pope was asked about Trump so it was a natural segue for him. As for throwing my weight around, I am just giving my opinion. Is there some type of schedule here where you have to wait before posting something that might hurt a more seasoned posters delicate sensibilities? And I am not dismissing anyone. I am merely giving an contrary view. If you hadn't dismissed me so instantly, you would have seen that. Wait.... The pope has a relationship with God? Hmmm. Who would of thunk it?
