  1. Is it the Riley-Spielman connection that accounts for so many Huskers signing with the Vikings?

      We are the minnesota vikings feeder team! JD will get drafted by them when he is done at Nebraska, and I can't wait to see how he turns out.

  2. I think it is high time that someone takes their civic duties seriously and posts the Nebraska spring game on Youtube. The nation demands it.

      Sounds like Reimers too. RUMOR

  4. Here are two questions about Nebrasketball. What factor(s) went into the decision to retain Miles? Answer this first, then read my next question in the comments.

      So, cut the fat like UNO did with football and wrestling? Well, those are terrible examples as both were champion caliber programs.

       

      I guess the real problem is how much fan support and ink the basketball program gets. Maybe we should forget about basketball, and talk more about wrestling. I do that now anyway, just need some other fans from Husker Nation to get on board.

      Oh, I don't mean cut the fat. The analogy is more of like...I think it's cute when Oregon State fans talk about their program "stagnating" under Riley, for example. You're Oregon State, chaps. Be happy to make a darn bowl. Don't fire Gary Anderson if he doesn't consistently make the Top 25 in his first five or six seasons, etc.

       

      Or the USMNT. Great, we fired Klinsmann and took it out on Honduras. But you know what, it's still going to be US soccer unt...

      ...il something fundamentally changes and that takes time. So be thankful when you have a coach with the right demeanor and vision. Maybe give him more time at the helm. Like Iowa and the unfireable Kirk Ferentz.

  5. Nebraska had their walk-on tryouts early this week. Anything noteworthy there?

      I'm aware of this conversation, but no that was not what I was referencing.

      @TTRR- Yep, I said ALL the f'n crooks. I doubt there is one single person in our government or that city that don't qualify.

      I thought one of Trump's campaign promises was he was going to personally pay for all his travel? Did I misunderstand? Not that I expect him to personally pay for official business and security etc. but isn't that what he said?

      No. It's not ATbone. Those were not business related trips. And the Obamas were not billionaire.

  9. Great weather on a Saturday. I'm going to take the kids for a hike and have a fish fry after. Plans?

      There are some interesting names. Folorunso Fatukasi seems like a real name.

  11. What are we back in the Big 12? 3 Big hosses from Texas.

  12. Should we really be saying "chili", or is the PC term "Latin American stew"
