  1. This. 100% this. If our O-line is at least average in being able to protect the QB, I think we are set for a pretty good season with ample opportunity for AM to grow into the position. But if not... it's likely going to be ugly, regardless which freshman QB we throw back there.
  2. I hate to hear that. So much talent, but sometimes your body just isn't up to the task.
  3. 4.43 Holy cow - I had no idea he was that fast.
  4. As a parent of a transgender child, I appreciate this thread, and I wish I had decent answers for you. Our oldest son (born daughter) came out as gay as a sophmore in high school and then as transgender not too long after that. He is now a sophmore in college, out on his own, living with friends, and overall is doing pretty well. One of my takeaways as I've thought about this is that while gender is often viewed as binary, it really isn't - it seems much more of a continuim. Looking back at his childhood, we recall both birth-gender non-conforming and conforming behaviors from a young age. To some extent, these different expressions still continue today. And I think that can make it hard for parents to recognize what the best path forward is for their kid, despite what their kid is telling them. I think most do not want to 'jump the gun' so to speak, but denial/dismissal is certainly damaging as well. It's difficult.
  5. When is the next scrimmage supposed to take place?

      Oh yeah!  I like the future of this young man as a Husker.

      I am now officially mixing up the pitcher of kool-aid.

      Now to get him physically here, start getting him in shape and see if he can help the team.  I'd hate to see him get hurt early if he is out of shape.  The jump from high school to D1 BIG 10 is considerable.

  6. Pretty much sums it up...
  7. I was wondering the same thing. I'm sure it's posted, but I don't remember seeing any specific dates/schedule.
  8. From last month. At Santa Fe. We are failing our kids.
  9. Yet another school shooting this morning, to be added to our ever-scrolling list of gun tragedies... and our 'representatives' continue to do nothing substantial to address it.

      Take it to the P&R Forum: http://www.huskerboard.com/index.php?/forum/151-politics-religion/ The rules about political posting in status updates hasn't changed. 

       

  10. I agree with that, and with the statement that sometimes s#%t happens despite all precautions, but some were trying to minimize what happened here and it rubbed me the wrong way. With that said, I can also see how this could more easily happen when the staff is new and doesn't know the athletes, and vise-versa. It probably would be easier to tell how much is too much if you had a history with the players and knew how they typically respond to stuff.
  11. I'm sure you're right. It just seemed there were comments that hinted it (i.e. blaming the players rather than the staff). I'm sure this was not at all an intended or expected outcome, but the staff (and the two players) dodged a real bullet here. It is nothing to mess with.
  12. It's a serious matter. If your opinion is that getting the team in shape is worth risking the lives of the players, you need to rethink your priorities.
  13. Does he have the flu, or is it something else?
  14. Christ on a cupcake people. What did people expect that Sr would say, given that he has stated repeatedly in the past that Riley was the reason Jr was here. I agree it lacked character to throw Armstrong under the bus and he shouldn't have done it, but how many of you were on here bashing Tommy for not being able to throw? I seem to remember quite a few. As for the comment by somebody that the whole Calibraska thing was stupid... what an ignorant and harmful thing to say. Good luck competing in the P5 with a team comprised solely of Nebraska kids, regardless of who the coach is.
  15. Any new info on when we might expect a press conference Saturday?
