  2. A booster is a booster whether you go to one game your entire life or give two million a year. The letter is very broad and makes it sound like you can't talk to a recruit at all. They're just being safe I think and making sure we arent giving them any bling or cash. At least that's what I am thinking I could be wrong.
  3. Our strength and conditioning is perfectly fine we do everything they do in this article
  4. I seem to remember a semi-pro league ran by the WWE that went bust. However, I must admit that it certainly was entertaining to watch. They had cheerleaders in hot tubs in the stands, the dance routines at half-time were almost x-rated, there were no kick-offs, instead it was something like a scramble for the football. Totally unconventional, but pure entertainment for the enjoyment of the fans. That was the XFL. And we don't have to go that route. But I'm thinking we let them coordinate the gameday experience. As I'm envisioning it, that would involve the best sound system money can buy, cool music that appeals to young people, pyrotechnics, all kinds of visual effects, etc. Update the band as well. The "Pride of All Nebraska" needs a refresh. Like the rest of the gameday experience, the band routines seem tired, worn-out and more appropriate for 1983 than 2013. So let's look at and emulate what schools like Ohio State are doing with their bands. Then integrate that into the game day presentation. But the point is that our target market is 17 year old predominately black kids that we're trying to recruit. It's not 60 year old white guys that think the "Tunnel Walk" is still the epitome of cool and that "The Wave" is the highlight of game time experiences. I don't go to games any more. My family has good tickets and I get an invite once or twice a year to go. I simply have no desire to. The stadium sucks, the seating sucks, the gameday experience blows and it's not worth spending an entire day getting down there attending the game and then getting home. I'd rather watch the games from the comfort of my recliner than smashed into a tiny seat with some asshat with one of those seats with a back jammed into my kneecaps. And there are more and more like me who don't care about attending games. A big part of that is that the gameday experience just isn't that big of a deal. That needs to change. The stadium sucks????? I understand everything else you are saying but what do you mean the stadium sucks? Not saying my opinion is better but I've been to every stadium in the big12 big 10, sec except for Vanderbilt,Kentucky,auburn, and the only one I thought was even close to as neat is Florida
  5. A good analogy for the D is A pilot who goes to school to learn how to fly a plane goes to learn how to fly a plane not how to build a plane. The defense can be compared to a pilot who has learned so much on how to build a plane that they've forgotten how to fly it. This is an analogy that can be used for a lot of sports and I think right now the defense has Been taught so much that they all probably have tremendous knowledge and could probably become great coaches but they aren't coaches right now they're players. Pelinis defenses are such that te strong safety is educated not only on what he is supposed to be doing but what the d line linebackers etc are also doing. This has some positives but at the same time if your mind is constantly studying and learning it can forget the overall instincts of the game. I'm not saying to dumb it down but to learn and understand first what you're specific duty is on defense and perfect it. You could also think of it as an undergraduate student who hasn't declared a major. They know a little aboit a lot but haven't perfected anything. A phd student knows a lot about a little. The undergraduate student is like our defense they know know a little about a lot and its doing them no good because they are forgetting the main objective and that is to perfect their job at hand
  6. I've seen some decent arguments that it was a dumb article. Yours isn't one of them. If that's what you got out of the article, you need to work on reading comprehension. So if I'm reading this right you're telling me to read more and post less? Ok on a serious note I feel like we still have an edge. I don't live in the past but the past isn't forgotten. That can still be used as an edge. When a recruit or anyone really, walks through the north doors of south stadium past the weight room, locker room, out of the tunnel, into the academic center all the way to the training table you won't find anyone that doesn't say whoa. People will say "every school has these facilities nowaday" (they dont). With the exception of jays fans the entire state of nebraska plans their day around husker football which would both be an edge. We just need to win. I just got done visiting the facilities in Gainesville and am driving back to atlanta and I think as a program we still have an edge. I do agree as a football team on the actual field we need to get the blackshirts in order because that is an edge we can have in a state like nebraska. Disciplined, hard nose physical defense and no doubt we can get that back. He made some great points I just felt like it was an unfair assessment of the program

  8. Great points lets just drop football. Dumb article
  9. I wouldn't put much thought into what he said. He respects the defense of Georgia I guarantee. I don't think he was talking trash
  10. I would say Alabamas run is a dynasty but not quite as good as Nebraskas run in the 90s. One of the most overlooked dynasties in college football in my opinion is Florida State in the 90s. I think people forgot how good they were for that 10 year stretch because they were in the shadows of Nebraska. I'm not exactly sure on this but I thought I remember reading that they never finished outside the AP top 3 from 1990 or 91 to 2000. Nebraska was the team of the 90s but I bet if you do some research that Florida State could possibly claim themselves as the team of the 90s as hard as that is to believe....atleast for arguments sake they could
  11. It was legal and a bad call there is really nothing else to it. When ur teammate has the ball you try to block for him... If that was on the other side of the field yes probably unsportsmanlike and should've tried to just disrupt him
  12. This won't be nebraskas year against creighton.
  13. That's what they used to say about the sec too. Who's to say that the defenses aren't just that good We went through this all year. When we beat NW, it was "meh, wait till we play Michigan". We won. "meh,Wait till a play Michigan St on the road". We won. "meh, wait till we have to play Penn st" we won. "meh, we'll choke against Minnesota" we won. "me, we're definitely due for a letdown at iowa" we won. Exactly, maybe we're just a good team. Now there is a thought that has been missing on here. Finally! Great post
