  1. Big benefit of being in a Disney Cruise tonight - The Last Jedi showing at 7pm!

      Flipping awesome- what a great memory

  2. Bill Moos handed out extensions like candy at Halloween.  And then we ended up paying him $3M to go away.

      Seems more like hush money. 

  3. Can we get a "new coach mega-thread" and merge every new thread someone creates about Urban Meyer, Zac Taylor, Bill O'Brien, Jim Tressel, Jon Gurden, etc in there?

  4. Clay Travis, online provocateur, routinely rants about how twitter mobs are killing our society.  Clay Travis, Vol fan, incites a twitter mob (including posting AD Currie's cell #) to stop Schiano from getting hired.  I mean...

      Travis is an ***hole, plain and simple.

      @dudeguyy except that he's only linked to Sandusky because someone on the stand threw him under the bus. He was investigated multiple times (including prior to his NFL gig) and was found to not be involved at all. 

       

      And Schiano would have been a good hire for Tennessee IMO. Oh well, looks like Tennessee will go from having a coaching vacancy to possibly having a coaching, AD, and possibly School President vacancy. :facepalm:

       

      Oh and to add insult to injury, multiple sites have suggested that Schiano could successfully sue Tennessee for the $20m that the contract was worth. I know he didn't sign a contract, but a LOI was signed by both parties, which would be enough.

      Is Tennessee still OK with Manning or is their outrage just selective when they didn't get the coach they wanted? 

  5. Despacito - good song or great song?

      I'll check it out.  I wasn't a huge fan, but I liked them enough to pay money to go see them.

      Yea, not everyone's cup of tea, some of it is not just dark but just depressing, then again, some rocks, some is powerful, some electronica, some avant-garde and some is funky, real mixed bag. That Austin show, has a bit of everything and he has a couple female backup vocals that give the music a different vibe.

      If you liked the song cars, this is a really cool on stage cam performance with Gary Newman.

      I saw NIN back when Closer To God was a big hit.  Great show actually.  I'll be seeing them again in a few weeks here at Riot Fest.  Not sure what that will be like.

      ESPN's FPI has their best chance to win a game vs ASU at 19.1% lol 

      Second best is this weekend vs Cal at 17.8%

      Followed by Oregon St 5.4%, Oregon 4.4%, Washington 3.5%, Utah 3.0%, and U$C 1.6%. Woof 

  8. Finally remembered to make my donation for season tickets with 3 days to spare to catch my "tax break".

  10. Had wrist surgery this morning.  They put a nerve block on my arm instead of putting me under. Arm still feels asleep and like it weighs 200 lbs. No pain yet though, so that's a good thing...

  11. Happy "halfway between the National Championship game and the Ireland game" Day!

  12. Heading to Vegas tomorrow.  I am just tagging along as my wife has a conference Thurs-Fri, so my days are free.  Thinking poker tournaments and just wandering.  Should I hit a "dispensary" and get some brownies?

      Those are the best trips. My wife had a conference in Orlando for a week. I tagged along and had the days free. It was awesome. Saw a space shuttle being ferried in on top of a 747 purely by accident as I was driving over to the Johnson space center and I could now lead tours at Epcot. We had supper every night in a different country at Epcot. Good week. If it was Vegas, I'd prly still be in debt. :lol:

      I wouldn't f#*k with edibles unless you have an idea of what you're doing.

  13. Hey guyz - my source is telling me that Riley is going to be fired (or retire) and that we are going to go after Scott Frost to replace him.  Feel free to pass it on.

      1620 lists post their daily shows by segments.  11:00-11:30 would be Nick Bahe segment 1 or 2.  You should be able to find them on their app or website.

      @ladyhawke I wonder if McElwain sours the waters in Gainesville to replace him with another group of 5 coach, like Frost.

  14. Hey mods, 2 suggestions 1) Can we get a "Frost Megathread" and whenever someone starts a thread with "Frost" in the title it gets dumped in there?  2) Can we get a "Talent Megathread" and whenever someone starts a thread with "Talent" in the title it gets dumped in there?  thx

      Hmmm... I can see if Red hasn't already been taken.

       

      Seriously, the jessica person starts a thread for any random thought/tidbit it hears.  See the new Bounds/AD thread.

      HuskerBoard desperately needs a rule prohibiting people from starting new threads until they have 100 posts or 100 rep, or both.

      If Frost turns us down we'll need a "Frost Meltdown" thread.

  15. Hope @Saunders is doing well.  I really liked the season preview stuff he would do.

      Hey Guys, thanks for reaching out! I'm doing well, I've just absolutely swamped between work, and coaching multiple kids sports teams since January. I also noticed that the preview sources I used to use have been fairly dry, so I haven't really had as much to work with. That being said, I'll gear up to get that stuff posted in the next couple weeks. Once I start getting preview mags, I'll really dive in. Looking forward to the season! #GBR

      I went ahead and created the master, and I'll try to get some placeholder threads done by the end of the day.

  17. I took the kindergartner to soccer then coached the 2nd grader's basketball team.  Anything happen when I was out?

  18. I've been basically non-existent online since Wednesday afternoon.  Anyone got some Husker Cliff Notes that I could read of the last 5 days?

      But also, Colorado Buffaloes have wicked cool gold helmets and a new Prime Time coach ! chuckleshuffle

       

      (My apologies, but I haven't been a CU hater since it wore off around 2005 and following, and they been in Pac 12 for like 12 years soooo....)

      @BigRedBuster @Cdog923 Thanks guys

       

      @admo I'm good.  Was just in FL for my kid's soccer tournament and was fully engrossed in all that goes with that.

      ^if he the seasonally miraculously turns around and we finish relatively strong Riley retires. If we limp out the rest of the way, he's fired. Personally I think he's a good coach who played his hand too late. Husker fans think in warp speed. 

  20. It's fun to finally get some good coaching rumors after almost 2 months of :crickets:

      But it’s irritating that some people keep harping about hiring Urban Meyer when the guy has made it clear he has no interest in the job.

      What about Nick Saban!? I think he could be a good fit. Ryan Day too!

  21. Leaving tomorrow for a Disney Cruise.  Wish me luck that our ship doesn't lose power in the middle of the Gulf and has to be towed back to port!

      This guy had the balls to send a letter to the judge in the case stating that "he is struggling to deal with victim statements and is uncertain in "my ability to be able to face witnesses these next four days, mentally.""

       

      My response would have been to force him to listen to every statement, on loop, for the entirety of his life-long prison sentence, which would hopeful be short and agonizing.

      I dunno Cdog....I feel that this is one guy that needs a long and agonizing prison stay.

      @Judoka He absolutely does, but cons don't look too fondly upon child molesters. 

  23. Mods, can there be a new forum called "arguments over coaches" where all the Solich/Callahan/Pelini/Riley crap can go?

  24. Must win tonight for the USMNT vs Panama.  I believe...

      Argentina's in more danger than the USMNT, I think. But we could totally screw it up.

       

       

  25. Not sure if I am more excited for Les Miles in the booth or Holly Sonders on the sidelines for the Northern Illinois game
