  1. The narrative that Ameer was a 2* has somehow made its way into Husker lore. It's wrong. He had offers from Auburn, South Carolina, Tennessee, A&M, and USC. And yes, I know Nebraska was the only school that wanted him purely as a RB. Ameer was rated a 5.7 and 3* on Rivals. (For those that don't know, a 5.7 is the highest rated of 3*, a 5.8 is a 4*.) He was the #17 ranked athlete in his class (other athletes of note that year were #1 DeAnthony Thomas, #6 Bubba Starling, #15 Nick Marshall, #25 Tanner McEvoy). He was also the #9 player in the state of Alabama, ahead of #12 Sammie Coates, #14 Jacob Coker (Jonathan Rose was the #5 player in Alabama that year). For a comparison to this year's class, JD Spielman is a 5.7 3* and the #37 ranked athlete.
  2. Not trying to be rude, but what made you think that we were going to be close to leading the nation in sacks?
  3. Really? We're running more plays this year? With a huddle offense? That seems odd.
  4. How is it related to Bozo? Its related to a parody of Bo. Therefore, its related to Bo.
  5. Minnesota vs Nebraska: The Broken Chair Trophy needs official recognition http://www.thedailygopher.com/2015/10/14/9530165/minnesota-nebraska-bits-of-broken-chair-trophy-official-recognition
  6. If we had canned Bo a season earlier, I think that we would have had a real shot at Petersen. But as you said, it would have been a tough pull with both our job and UW open at the same time.
  7. I think recruiting it is a huge reason why the Nebraska job isn't "top tier". With that said, its up the coaches to use it as an excuse or not. If you asked 100 coaches "where would you rather coach, Nebraska or Georgia?" I would guess it would be >75% for UGA.
  8. Disagree. Automatically giving someone x amount of time is being a blind supporter. Evaluating performance every day and acting accordingly is what a sane and rational person should do. Should USC be giving Sarkisian the rest of his second season? If Riley shows up drunk to a booster event and a practice, then yes, he should be fired midway through the season.
  9. We need to be up 9+ points in the final minute or we'll lose.
  10. I'm not sure the problem is Stewart. I think it's just a horrible defensive scheme, a Banker problem.
  11. I almost ran over KJJ, Gebbia, and Holmes trying to turn onto I-180 from Q St after the game.
  12. Could you send a link or list of all these top notch recruits, please. TIA. I've gotta feeling that the stadium will take its queue from the coach, I don't expect much excitement, unfortunately. If you really wanted to know, you could find out in 3 or 4 clicks of your mouse.I don't have a mouse attached to my phone, sorry. Amend my quote to 3 or 4 taps of your finger
  13. Didn't he talk to the team the Friday night before the Miami game?

  16. Suh is opening a NikeTown in the old/closed Nebraska Bookstore building on 13th and Q.
  17. Glenn didn't move 1/2 through a season. The 6-0, 235-pound Glenn made the switch midway through spring ball in 2008 and excelled in the Huskers’ defensive scheme.
