Knothole Seats @ 50 Cents

You brought up two things on which I wanted to comment. HH fumbled after taking that very hard hit. I could not believe that play was called after the type of hit he took. He should not have been put in that position. The ball should have been handed off. I literally shake my head when we line up in the shotgun on 4th and 1. Unfortunately I don’t see this changing

I did not view this as a glorified scrimmage. I really liked some of the emotion shown by the kids, especially by Sherman on defense. The ball was on the ground way too much for my liking. Perhaps some of that can be attributed to the defense and some to players trying to prove or over prove themselves. Rhule and staff will have to work hard to clean things up because we are nowhere close to being good enough to overcome a lot of turnovers come fall. Sims and Kemp showed some nice things. So we have to feel good about that. it was great to see Frank back in the stadium. The huge smile on his face just shortly after halftime said it all.

Was wondering if someone would post the tie-in with Miller & Paine. Runza did that for several years then backed off. Miller & Paine had the absolute best best cinnamon roll in Lincoln back in the day. Great store.

A chance for 3 “Hip Hip Hoorays.”

Perfectly fair questions. The timing could not be better. I wish I had some decent answers. Husker Nation has been through a lot and now we get today’s news. Thanks for your post.

Absolutely spot on with regards to contract language being sufficient.

There is no question that stress can cause people to do things they would not normally do.

Sad to see. No one should pass judgment at present.

Klieman has been at the top of my list for nearly two months now. I would to see him chosen but have doubts it will happen.

Well, to be honest, you best get Trev on the Bat Phone and quick!

There is apparently a Booth Family Hall of Athletics.

I believe it’s a fair statement at this point to say the situation could be very fluid. We’ve had recent reports of Klieman moving up, Ruhle being close then moving back, Meyer coming (doubtful), and Leipold gaining momentum. All the while Mickey Joseph’s name is not exactly going away. About the only constant, other than the numerous guesses, is that Leipold’s wife, Kelly, has not come out to say she no longer plans to be back at The Booth next fall.

Classic motivational interviewing.

Can you tell us more about this supposed “push” for Fickell? Source, if possible.

I’m thinking it’s more like people grumbling about fighting that northwest wind while walking to their vehicles.

All fun aside as we continue to await things, I hope so but have my doubts at the same time. I listened to Alberts on Husker Radio last night. I knew he wasn’t going to say anything of note and he didn’t. He is, as they say, “corporate smooth.” My sense of things tells me there is no way Urban Meyer is the guy as he seems to have a pretty good gig at present. Nor is Deion Sanders. Matt Campbell’s star has faded this season yet he still may get the call. Dave Aranda was interesting at one time also. Lane Kiffin would be great but I don’t know if he would want to inherit the mess he may observe. I have no idea about Gary Patterson. Matt Rhule can spend his days figuring various ways to invest his millions. Why come here? Lance Leipold knows Nebraska and may very well want to get out of a shaky Big XII Conference. I would prefer Chris Klieman of Kansas State, to be honest. No one named Stoops is coming. Luke Fickell, from a distance, seems locked in Ohio. Again, why come here?

I appreciate the inquiry but am sworn to secrecy until 7 p.m. on November 25.

I am told that progress to this point has been slow…

Most accurate post of the day…

Passing? Upset? Not us…

Spot on re: Klieman. I posted back in September that I liked him. I thought his name made a lot more sense than others that have been mentioned ad nauseam.

Mike Green.

One of the funniest things I have seen this weekend. Thank you!

Isn’t 485 pages of trying to find a good fit enough?
