Is it funny yet? I'm not sure why but I'm laughing, I mean.... normally losing ruins my day. I just can't stop laughing.

I was actually laughing my ass off the last 2 series......pathetic.

HAHAHAHA! I poped on the TV to watch 2 series and they both sucked pretty bad. Has the whole game been this way. Im glad Im not watching and beng more productive with my saturday.....Riley sucks and so does fyfe.

 

I love when the idiots come out of the woodwork calling for the AD like they have a clue about running an athletic program at a power 5 school.

 

It's like watching good will hunting. A janitor that knows complex math equations.

But in "Good Will Hunting," wasn't the janitor really good at complex math equations? Or maybe I'm just missing your point.

I believe he was a custodian.

Here's the reality. Get ready. Riley isn't going to get fired. We are on the hook for Bo's contract and Riley's contract now. If we fire Riley we are paying 2 staffs salaries with no coach on the sideline....people with the money don't like this. There are several more attractive jobs that are coming open, or are already vacant on the CFB landscape; USC, South Carolina, and probably Miami, plus a few more I'm sure. That leaves NU pretty far on the pecking order, meaning we probably get stuck with another scrub. The truth is we probably can't afford a top flight staff at this point even if we could convince said staff to choose NU over more attractive jobs. We are just going to have to take it up the tail pipe for a few years untill we can clean up our mess. Just my 2 cents.

I bet tommy...the real tommy that is....was thinking the other tommy runs like a scrub.

Mike Riley and staff are not good at coaching college football...that is all.

I came to terms with the fact that this is no longer 1994 a long time ago. you would do your self favor to stop holding todays team to the standard set by one of the best squads in CFB history. just sayin....we won the friggin game on the road vs a team that beat us the last few years....baby steps my friend.

Iowa doesnt strike much fear in me for some reason. i hope they come in all fattened up, highly ranked and undefeated. That might be just what our program needs right now. If we can knock off an undefeated sparty and Iowa....well my friends, the legend of Mike Riley begins!

by the time MR gets things running the way he wants with his system, his culture and his guys he will be pushing 70 and looking to retire; that is, if he is allowed to stay that long. then where does that leave us? on to the next coach who has a completely different system I imagine. I want to get all "Riled up" about Riley, but I just dont see this turning out well for us. I hope Im wrong, just my 2 cents and yeah I'll give him 2 years. GBR!

dang...we got some good ones this week!

I hear Frank does more with less over there with the bob cats.

He was nice in his press conference. He didn't yell at a reporter.

The good, if the weather holds out, I'm getting the boat out and going fishing next Saturday.

Even if my thread gets deleted.

any room in that boat next week?

Cycle after a loss--

(rest of) Saturday: pissed, angry, slightly depressed, how could this happen?, etc, etc

Sunday: still pissed and angry, but golfing makes it a bit better

Monday: starting to come around, but then I reflect on the game more and become pissed and angry again

Tuesday: cooling off

Wednesday: cooling off even more and looking ahead to the next team and the challenges they bring to the table

Thursday: eh, if we do x, y, & z, we have a shot on Saturday

Friday: we could definitely win tomorrow

Saturday: GAMEDAY BITCHES

nicely put!

may be a nice consolation prize.

When Nebraska was on top, it had a local (TO) who was head man. Throw money at all those others, and your just throwing away money. They don't care about Nebraska or its football program, but they would come here for the fringe benefits of money. If Callahan taught us anything, it should have been that. He recruited 4 and 5 star talent to Nebraska, but it was ininspired talent playing for the name on the back of the jersey, not for Nebraska. Why would any other coach ever come here for any other reason than for the money. Yeah, Richt or Kelly would win 9 games a year, but how long would they remain in place before glam job came open? Callahan and Pelini won 8 and 9 games for the most part, but didn't have the love of the program or state in order for it to ever succeed for a long lasting time. Fire Eichorst, fire Riley and bring in Trev Alberts as AD and he will bring in Scot Frost. Those two men know Nebraska Football and love the program still to this day. This would then bring in your alums that made this program what it once was. Stop with throwing money at the hot new hire like a bunch of spoiled rotten bitches and realize that this is not Alabama or Texas. Get back to what made NU football great, and that is pride in the program, and pride in the STATE of Nebraska. Thats how its been proven to be done in the past, and thats the only way it will ever get back to its ways. Devaney made it work for 9 years, but it was Osborne who sustained this program for 25 years and made it what it was, more than most will admit or realize. It was Osbornes program.

 

this is actually a pretty good point.

If you want option football back...hire Troy Calhoun

doesnt he also do "more with less?"

I learned that it doesn't take forever to start winning games, and making an impact.

 

I'm sitting here watching Florida go up 26-0 on #3 Ole Miss, in game 5 of a new regime, after being pitiful the last few years.

too bad we didn't snag McElwane when he was on the market...would have been better than MR it would seem.

anyone is available for the right price. It depends on how deep the university and boosters want to reach in their wallets.

I bet Bo is laughing his ass off right about now.

anyone know how long staff is under contract?

Let's all hope the Eagles continue to suck hot garbage and we can get Chip Kelly

thats funny, I was just thinking that a few weeks ago

Seriously, I am now beginning to doubt we even make it to a bowl this year.....Sad times.

Thats the new norm of nebraska football

sure looks like it.

We should all pitch in and rest a bi-plane to fly a flag over the stadium during game day.....hurricanes style.

What a joke.
