What are the chances of a mid season firing?

We got out coached the second decade.

Or brother with NFL level attitude/pointers.

So he’ll be here Monday then?

Haha. Me too! If it helps at all, I think there’s a “swaaaaannnggg” in there somewhere. But I’m not sure. Maybe like, “da da da da da da swaaaaanggggg, da da da da da da swaaaaannngg. Da da da da da da swaaaaaaang, da da da da da swaaaaaannggg.” But even that that could be completely wrong.

I’m old and out of the music loop. There’s a hype song that plays at football games and basketball games which is hip hopish and I really can’t make out enough lyrics to even run an internet search. Anybody cooler, younger people than me mind posting links to any of the hype songs you can identify in hopes I can put a song with the one that goes, “daaaaaa da da da da da da da, da da da da da da da daaaaaaaa?”

Wait for it.... Wait for it.... Nevermind.

One thing I will never forget Frost saying after one of the early season games where A-Mart threw a bonehead pass, Frost said, "He made a bad decision for sure there, but Adrian is the kind of guy that, now that he's done that, won't ever do it again." At the time I rolled my eyes a bit after watching our previous 5 QB's continue to make the same bad game decisions over and over again. But sure enough, as the season played out, Adrian DIDN'T make those same bad decisions over and over again. The kid really does learn from his mistakes. As a freshman, there are many mistakes to be made, but I guarantee he will never throw backwards toward the sideline to a receiver again, etc.. The kid is jaw droppingly mature for a senior, honestly, and he's not a senior.

1) we don’t have the size or talent yet to match up with the best o-lines in the big 10. No scheme or d-cord could do any better without exposing glaring holes in other areas. 2)yes 3) yes 4) yes 5) D came up big in several crucial situations today, you just don’t notice the stops they did make. Can’t expect them to be 100%. Key is, don’t allow the team to get in a position where every drive in the second half is a crucial situation. 6) see #1, you’re saying the same thing here in point 6. 7) yes. 8) yes 9) yes. GBR!

Disagree. His head was up, looking at the play, the helmet to helmet contact was just incidental and that is legal.

Meh, you can hand wrestle 5 yards if the ball isnt in the air. Ticky tack fabrication of a hold even if that was the call, which it wasn’t

Give ‘em the throat slash!!

But he didn’t leave and that is all of the difference.

Scott was a safety in the NFL, if you think he doesn’t value defense I think you would be mistaken. I think it’s more of philosophy of, take with the game will give you. As mentioned above, currently the rules heavily favor the offense. Good news, Scott runs one of the best offense of scheme’s in the country, and as such can recruit premiere athletes that want to come play in it. Defense, no matter the scheme, just isn’t a sexy sell to anybody, and as such I think these coaches just understand they will probably not ever get all of the best defense of players signed on. I guarantee if you offered them a Suh, Amukamara, and Lavonte for next years team, they would not say no. They just know they can be in the driver seat on offense, so they’re going to focus there for now. Nobody is conceding to having a crappy defense, they are just being realistic with in the confines of Nebraska football as it currently stands.

Who is this Guy?

Sure. But the pull for Wendale to stay home was strong. Now he can have the top two things on his list. Close to home and guaranteed featured spot in a promising offense playing for a rising coach.

Because now Brohm is in his backyard.

They’ve improved so much this year, I don’t doubt for a second next year will be another light year leap in the right direction.

But it’s pretty much fact, correct?

Obviously I’ve never had to try to kick one, so can’t directly speak to how easy it hard it is to pull off. That said. I’ve seen hundreds of attempts over the years and have NEVER seen one go the way yesterday’s went. I honestly do not think getting the kick executed in a forward manner is that difficult. Now, the perfect angle and bounce? Ya, that’s a different story.

Yes and no. He didn’t just mess it up. Messing it up is it going out of bounds or not making it 10 yards. He’s a scholarship kicker that didn’t even get the ball heading downfield. That’s pretty much on him. Nobody is even talking about him at all if it was just a failed onside kick. It’s the manner in which it failed that makes him culpable.

I think you’re misunderstanding the random part of random coin flip. I understand that in hindsight his decisions can be criticized, but, imo, he had method and justification for calling them exactly as he did. Freak meltdowns by the inferior team left him on the wrong side of the coin flip each time

Wrong. Not naive at all, he’s still going to set the tone, absolutely. He never said he was going to do it in the first 6 games. In fact, he basically said we aren’t going to be real good out of the gate, but you’d better hope you don’t get us towards the end. Seems like it’s been pretty damn accurate, actually. I hope he never changes a thing. Many things that look folly with mediocre players/fit automatically look genius when things are corrected.

Pretty easy to prove a black eye, stitches and dislocated shoulder.
