    Eh, I still have student loans to pay off and I haven't had my current job for a year yet. 10 years from now I will (knock on wood) feel a lot less vulnerable.

    I picked $50,000.


    Just another point to add, if I had $5 million I could use it for things more important than Husker football. I could save someone's life with that amount of $.

     

    Picked 50k as well. Thatd at least pay off my student loans. Id go as low as 30k honestly.

    I don't know, man. D1 sports strength coaches can be, in general, pretty dumb sometimes.  I'm not saying Frosts guy is dumb, but I think you could argue that the state of D1 strength coaching is kinda crappy.

     

    See the Oregon story from last year where a bunch of their players got rhabdo.

     

    When you've selected for the most elite athletes, it's not hard to hide behind their talent.  These elite athletes are going to grow up and get better because that's what they've been selected for.

     

    A strength coaches job should be to make them stronger anyway and certainly not put them in the hospital.

     

    Man, I say we hire DaveH. Screw eppley and Duval! 

     

    Lol if you actually think this new staff or the strength coach is "dumb" then you have no clue what you're talking about. 

     

    How on Gods green earth could you argue that the state of D1 strength coaching is crappy?! Please, give me links that back up your opinion because I really am curious. 

     

    If you don't think eppley and Duval know what they're doing, especially on a subject I was taught in a health and fitness general education class in college you're crazy

    Not sure, Allan maybe a couple years before you?

    Ever tried saying what you believe even when you know you are going to catch hell, or do you just jump like a lemming?

     

    If Scott cared so much about NU, why did he bolt the state for Stanford?  

    Why didn't he throw his hat in three years ago?

    Other than cold green cash, why would he want to come to this meat grinder conference, crushing fan and media expectation, with real recruiting difficulties, a place where coach careers go to die in the last 15 years?

    When he can wait for a better spot, equal cash while playing annually for CC's?  

    Love of the state?  He seems a little too goal oriented for that to me.

    Hmm seems to me you just characterized all blueblood programs minus recruiting difficulties. Remember, Florida just fired a coach that had 2 divisional championships in 3 years. Our coach had the worst season since 1961. Which one should be fired? 

     

    Maybe you should go be a fan of another team

    My guess is that since you were suspended or banned, whichever prompted this accusation, the Mods have nearly been turned over.

     

    Back in the day it was me, zoogs, AR Husker Fan & BRI doing most of the heavy lifting. 

     

    Today it's Mavric, saunders, Enhance, Huskerzoo, Thanks_Tom & jsneb8675309, none of whom were Mods about two years ago. 

     

    So if there's a whole different set of people running the show, and they're still making decisions you're not on board with, maybe the problem isn't the mods.  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

     

    Lol I didn't even know I had been banned before. Weird

    I think it's almost a lock that Tanner Lee is Nebraska's starter next year. Interpret these as you will but these are his career stats after 2 years at Tulane:

     

    Games played: 19

    Completions: 328

    Attempts: 612

    Completion %: 53.6

    Yards: 3,601

    Yards per attempt: 5.9

    Touchdowns: 23

    Interceptions: 21

     

    Those stats DON'T make me feel good about TL. Low comp. %, low yds per, but the real kicker is nearly a 1/1 TD/INT ratio. Plus, lest we forget, Tulane went 3-9 in each of the 2 yrs in which he started a ttl of 19 games. I repeat, this is Tulane.

     

    One would hope the alleged phenom POB could beat this guy out no prob it that also concerns me if he can't.

    His 2nd year he played with a broken bone in his throwing hand. So that had an effect on everything.

    Seems like riley is getting desperate and is trying to hire anyone with former husker ties just to make good publicity since he doesn't have much else going on for him as far as the rest of the staff goes. All "his guys" seems to be flaming out and as not as high quality of coach as we were told. Anyone that did their research would of known that though.

    Lol quite a stretch there with all your assessments

    Who on the staff doesn't have much going for them? Donte? Williams? Bray? Parella? did diaco have former ties? Donte? I'm really confused by your statement it really doesn't make any sense at all to be honest with you

    Tortilla Tony is better off earning his chops at an FCS school imo

    Before we lost Leitao, I agreed with you. I said let's go get another big time recruiter. Now, TT came through in the clutch to land the guy we actually wanted first. I think afford to give TT a shot. Heck, he is the most talked about GA since Marrow... look what happened by not giving him a spot...

    Pretty sure Rafdal was our #1 priority since the beginning

    As long as you have to carry three or four quarterbacks, you will have a high school stud whose dream isn't turning out the way he planned.

    That's almost the norm nowadays, though. QB attrition is higher now than it ever has been.

     

    Do you have stats to prove this or are you just talking out of your ass?

    So 40% of the top 5 signees since 2010. I guess if you're a school getting a top 5 signee then maybe you might have more to worry about.

    Neat? I don't think it's just QB's who are transferring schools if they aren't happy with their playing time but that's on you as a coaching staff also to recruit guys who might not be prima donna 'flight risks' also.

     

    Do people think POB is one of those possible kids who if he doesn't get pt might transfer? I'm old school so for me my attitude is let him go then.

    Well, you asked for stats....

    This made me lol
