  1. I don't know enough about the case, but I'd be in support of a longer suspension for the players. Riley admits that one game may not have been long enough. Really hard thing to judge, imo.
  2. I hate to be a wet blanket, and I actually really like the hiring, but in doing research into Coach Riley, this is one of the most recent things to come up and something I've seen mentioned nowhere. Obviously, this is ten years later, and Riley apologized for his statement, but this is a pretty sad and repulsive display of leadership. Kinda don't know what to think. http://www.oregonlive.com/sports/oregonian/john_canzano/index.ssf/2014/11/canzano_her_name_is_brenda_tra.html
  3. The Tennessee grey uni was a color they used many years ago. They also incorporate the checkerboard and images of the state. Would be cool to have something that says Nebraska besides the N. Although not totally proprietary, maybe a horseshoe or even the skull and crossbones
  4. LOL...Maryland has some of the ugliest uniforms know to man. That very well may be true, but pure aesthetics aside, they make sense.
  5. Awful. And I like the modern uniforms. No rhyme or reason to any of the design. An "N" on the inner right arm, but not the left? Looks like a cheap knockoff you would find on the streets of Tijuana. Look at schools like Tennessee, Maryland, even Indiana. Uniforms that make some sense and aren't garish for the sake of being garish. Fail
  6. I'd love to see a win. Especially revenge vs Minny. But Miami is cool too
  7. Happy offseason, Looking to come out to Lincoln next year for my first game. Will be staying at my gf's family in Omaha. Was wondering which game would have the highest probability of a great experience (weather, tailgating, play, atmosphere) and would love your input. Was initially thinking Miami or Minnesota. Thoughts??? Thanks!!
  8. I know they are great young men, but Kellogg and Westercamp are terrible football players.
  9. Im definitely going to the Minnysoda game. Love to see us smasu some Randy Gregory revenge in Lincoln and take back control of the series. As much as I want to go to the Miami game Im afraid my big game attendance curse will cost us a win so Id better watch from home. Good points. Would Miami be considered a big game? Dunno how good they are supposed to be next year. Also curious what another year of global warming will bring for the Minny game .
  10. Mel Kiper predicted Ameer as a third round pick last week. Honestly, I don't see him getting higher than that were he to stay. So it may be in his best interest to leave.
  11. At the expense of starting another thread, I'd love to hear suggestions on what home game to make the trek from the East Coast for next season. Would like a competitive game, good weather, tailgating, etc. Can't predict those. Was thinking maybe Miami, Minny, or that powerhouse Purdue.
  12. Gregory would be somewhere around a late 4th round pick were he to leave now. Has the potential to be a first rounder, especially in a 3-4. I'd love to have him on the Eagles.
  13. Just win, baby. It's been long enough in the Big Ten to get acclimated. Wisconsin and even Michigan State have established themselves as superior programs right now. Michigan, PSU, and tOSU have and still do own the conference. Maryland is trying to become Oregon East. Players win games. Recruit smarter, coach smarter. You can talk about it all day. Moral victories count for nothing. Just win, baby.
  14. I am hoping this is the game Ameer goes completely bananas.
  15. Tommy will certainly feel pushed by Stanton and hopefully Darlington can fully recover during his tenure. That depth and competition is great for the future of the position.
  16. I was just replying to the thread topic about being all in with TA. Of course there is room for improvement in everyone's game, but right now I would still consider TM the guy if he were healthy and I look forward to a competition next spring for the job that TA may very well win
  17. Did you not see the Minnesota game? I love TM, but let the guy heal for goodness sake. Of course.Taylor seemed to be way less than 75% for that one though.
  18. This may not be of popular opinion, but, while I'm impressed with his leadership ability and poise, Tommy's actual qbing skills are pretty poor. Arm strength, mechanics, savvy...all seem to be lacking. Even for a freshman. I am very much looking forward to seeing Stanton next year. And would go with Taylor if he is 75 % or better.
  19. I know there has been some talk about strength and conditioning (or lack thereof) . Showtime' s 60 Minutes Sports did a great piece on Alabama and their S&T program. There are good facilities and training programs, but then there is Alabama. They are making machines over there. It is on demand and certainly worth a look. http://www.al.com/alabamafootball/index.ssf/2013/11/live_updates_alabamas_scott_co.html
  20. I, too, am hesitant about a first timer, but the thing Frost has going for him is how he is truly part of something unique and that furthers the game. It's like taking a less experienced person from Google to run your tech company. I'll take that
  21. There are obviously ways to progress with the times and keep tradition. Just look at Ohio State, Notre Dame, Penn State, etc.
  22. Pull a Petrino. I don't think hed make it out of Philly alive. Coming from Philly, there is a better chance of Desean Jackson doing this than Chip.
  23. This post is going to look hilarious in a 6 weeks. Indy? This team? This coach? Not a chance. Ditto. You really think that's possible? Putting aside the fact the coaches aren't good enough for such a task, the players aren't up to par.
  24. The guy for the job is Al Golden. Now, getting him to leave a more lucrative position is going to take savvy and money, but he's the right move. He can recruit and that's a major issue, imo. I saw him do him do great things with Temple and if could get kids to come to North Philadelphia, he will be able to get them to Lincoln.
