  1. Once again I get why people want to post on the message board asking fans not to tweet at recruits and that it can reflect negatively on Nebraska that I can understand. But, I do not think that anyone reading these statements is going to stop sending tweets at these recruits.

     

    Some people are just natural internet/social media trolls or misguided fans and I feel like if you own a twitter account you need to understand that you are going to get people who are going to post on your account that either are annoying as all get up or send negative tweets. As creepy as it is to tweet at highs school athletes it is going to happen.

    In 2010 we were back, climbing to #5 in the nation at 5-0 before falling to Texas. Then we climbed back up to #9, 9-1 record, before losing to A&M, then Oklahoma, then Washington.

     

    In 2011 we were back, considered the new bullies of the B1G, ranked #8 before getting curb stomped by Wisconsin. We beat some good teams and got back up to #9, before losing to Northwestern, then Michigan, then South Carolina.

     

    In 2012 we were 10-2 and ranked #14 with a presumed upcoming win over 3rd place leaders division Wisconsin in the championship game. We got beat by 40 points, then lost to Georgia.

     

    In 2014 we were 8-1 with just a close loss to #7 Michigan State, we were ranked 11th going into Wisconsin. We got beat by 35 points, then lost 3 of our final 4.

     

     

     

     

     

    It takes a lot more than the first 3 games of a season to even start asking questions like this.

    +1 (only because the computer won't let my add a million zeros behind it)

     

    If 'Nebrasaka's back!", then Pelini resurrected this program about 5 different times and got canned for it. I'm excited about this season, it's fun to be optimistic, and I'm glad we have the chance to have a discussion like this. But, like Landlord pointed out, this isn't really anything new either.

     

    Soooo ... we are not back... I will have to cancel my special order "We're Back" Nebraska T-shirts and matching tube socks. Can't do the same about my forehead tattoo though...

    According to Tom VanHaaren (ESPN), Darnay's dad said they won't take any officials now until November. Meaning he isn't going to Michigan this weekend anymore. Michigan, Ohio St and potentially NU will get officials with Georgia and Tennessee potentially getting unofficials.

     

    Exactly the reason I have been telling people to pump the breaks on this kid. He likes Nebraska. Has been here many times. I think we are definitely in it until the end.

     

    Just need to let this LOOOONNNGGG process play out.

     

    Man I am so confused I thought it was "all gas no breaks".

  4. Beating a dead horse, but I REALLLLY wish he would have stayed. Easily could have been backup this year/seen playing time.

     

    I agree as well. I was really excited to get this guy in a husker uniform and thought he would be the natural starter at quarterback, but it didn't pan out.

  5. I think I would agree with Count on this one, but I can see the idea behind keeping the crowd in the game to help impress the recruits. I am no expert on how to get recruits to commit, but if I came for a Nebraska game and saw them struggle to win a game that they should have easily won I might begin to question a possible commitment.

     

    I believe it comes down to a couple different kinds of kids or combination of the two. One is a kid that wants to be surrounded by talent to have the best product on the field and the other that wants no competition so that he can come in and play right away and be the star. Of course there is always different ideals for each kid, but if I remember correctly I thought he said he wanted to go to a school that had talented kids already on the roster.
