  1. Our backups need real reps. Ryker threw a pick on a bad read yesterday. I'd rather that happen when we are up 40 and have him learn from it, than have him come in green if we need him to make a play in a meaningful situation.
  2. I don't know if that's a good strategy. Wr: what do we do here coach? Megatron: be the tallest, fastest and strongest person on the field, with the best hands. Wr: but I'm not... Megatron: well sh*t, I don't know then...
  3. Maybe we can keep him as OL coach, our WR's have been better blockers than our linemen.
  4. If he wasn't from nebraska would we want to snag the coordinator of the best offence in the country??? Think about that for a second bub... The real question is, if Scott frost wasn't from nebraska, would we think we had a shot in h*ll of getting him?
  5. Does that speak to the obscurity of the coaching hires Pelini has made? You're missing the point, my friend. This guy has coached in the NFL. He coached in the Pac-12. The media all claim to know him personally. The coaching world is a pretty small world. I find it hard to believe his path hasn't crossed anybody on this staff at all in his almost 40 years of coaching. EDIT: Apparently, I may be missing the point. Are you saying it's more telling about the previous staff that a guy so well known doesn't know any of the outgoing staff? I honestly think this says more about Bo simply hiring friends and yes men. If a guy this well connected and respected doesn't no anyone here.
  6. I'm completely shocked that the coordinator of the best offence in college football, who has ties to us (which is the only reason we'd even have a shot at getting him to make a lateral-ish move), hasn't at least been contacted about possibly making a move here.
  7. Yep, when I think of Corvallis, I think of a happening beach scene. Seriously, and that WAS THE FIRST THING HE BROUGHT UP!! Methinks someone hasn't been to Oregon. Cannon beach has an awesome surf! That's the very north end of Oregon thoigh.
  8. Coach Riley is a done deal, but this ride isn't over! Oh mighty sock! What say you? Scott frost for OC?!? Please say it's happening!
  9. why do we need an old, old wooden ship in the FBS???
  10. "I have imagined this moment for a long time. Is it real?"
  11. I live in Illinois here too and know what its like to be a Cubs fan. Frankly I stopped going to games and paying attention to the team as they have not proven its worth my time to invest in them. I agree that fans need to unify and boycott. I actually started the "Let the Sellout Streak End" thread last November after the humiliating loss to Iowa, and some were appalled at the thought of having that happen. But you are right...as fans we have to find a way to get the message out that it's time for a change. Pelini could go down with 2 notorious records as the Huskers coach. First, giving up more rushing yards to a single back in a single game in NCAA history. And 2, being the coach that let the streak end. Hey now, The Cubs are spending millions to renovate wrigley, have one of the best farm systems in baseball and hired joe maddon. I wish nebraska was making moves to improve the way the Cubs are right now.
  12. Hmm I like the sound of that a lotYour HC wouldn't like having the next guy in line right next to him I understand that, unless it's a guy like tressel, who is looking for an opportunity to coach somewhere, but realistically, is someone we probably wouldn't be able to keep in lincoln for too long before he moves on anyway. Or even an older coach, looking for one last shot at glory. There are ways to find a good hc who would understand the circumstances.
  13. Would it be a lateral move if Frost was given the title: offensive coordinator/assistant head coach and given a pretty big pay raise? Knowing he'd be the head coach in waiting? Sounds like a move up to me.
  14. There has got to be a qb on this roster who can complete a pass.. A change is needed, what is there to lose? The qb play can't possibly get any worse today.
  15. If would sure help out our cause if we could keep that Gordon guy under 20 yards per carry...
  16. I'm convinced that Dr Tom got the committee to drop nebraska down to 16 to light a fire under the kids before heading to camp Randall. Now the kids are fired up and are going to lay the beats on wisky. Smart man, that Osborne. We'll be up to 9-11 after this weekend.
  17. Have we ever handed it off to the receiver when we run that jet sweep? Seems like it has always been a fake. would be nice to see Pierson els get that a few times.
  18. I think this weekend will be very indicative of how far this SEC bias really goes. There is going to be an SEC team that's in the top 4 with two losses. If they don't drop behind all the power conference 1 loss teams. Then we'll know all the commitees talk about wins and losses being most important was BS.
  19. I think we could make it more interesting within the school. have to of the captain's do a draft. Just make a bigger deal of it.
  20. We've seen TA fake the pitch and take it up field on multiple occasions. He does a great job of forcing defenders to either commit to him, or the RB. Not worried about Tommy's ability to run the option at all.
