I think this makes it so there are already 7 coaching vacancies in fbs. A lot of the open jobs are considered more favorable than coaching at Nebraska, so we need to let the whole "fire Mike Riley now after one year" fade away. it would be unwise due to the fact any coach would be wary to come to a school that fired their coach after 1 year after firing a coach that never won less than 9 games and then you have places like south carolina, Miami, USC, and Maryland open that some people find more appealing anyways (maybe not Maryland but that's left up to individual opinion)

Perlman needs to go ASAP. NU has had way too many bad coaches in a row.

The run it up Reeve's butt play needs scrapped. The interior Oline is putrid. For the love of God run to the edge. Play into the strength of your skillset

Tommie Armstrong is not a winning QB. He is too inconsistent. He missed several wide open receivers today. He was also late on the throw for the attempted two point conversion. Nebraska will continue to be a program of the past with him at QB.

Nobody is getting fired this year. We don't even know how this year is going to end. Threads like this are becoming redundant and annoying. Go troll somewhere else.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You obviously font understand why we lost it.

 

I know Perlman snubbed the whole meeting (and its attendees) where the vote took place. Not cool when Harvey only needed two votes to prevent it. But you obviously knew this already and are dismissing it for some reason. Care to explain why?

One of the things I read about the process that ended with NU's AAU membership being terminated was that Perlman was allowed to make a statement but wasn't called into the meeting until they were ready to hear his statement, and then he presumably had to leave while the vote took place. I may be remembering this particular process incorrectly but I am 100% sure there was some sort of process that Perlman had to follow.

 

And if the AAU counted agricultural research dollars this would never have been an issue. Also, if NU had been allowed to count research dollars spent at UNO this wouldn't have been an issue. This issue was largely out of Perlman's hands because of the AAU's rules and how they count research dollars.

I believe UNO is counted. It's UNMC that isn't counted, IIRC, as it was separated from the NU system for other reasons that perpetuate its existence.

 

In short, DoNU got screwed by the AAU not counting Ag Research money...which is quite a myopic move, considering how Ag Research is going to become increasingly vital in the next decade or so.

What the frig is "DoNU"? You're the only one I've seen using this acronym for NU.

Homecoming this week right?

nicely done video!

 

Question on Kalu's pick-six: Didn't we commit an obvious block-in-the-back on his run?

 

 

Are we wearing the ALTS this week as well?

Yep

 

 

Remembering those discussions about different overages:

 

Banker acknowledged to reporters that the Huskers didnt consistently cover Minnesotas tight ends and wideouts, especially on corner routes. Nebraska had switched coverages to address the problem.

 

We got in a different coverage, took it away and thats where the two picks came from, Banker said.

OWH

 

 

So we run a different coverage scheme and get two quick INTs, one returned for a TD. Hmmmmmmmm..................

It only took 3 1/2 quarters to make an adjustment..... #progress

 

Mike Hankwitz - Defensive Coordinator

 

 

 

Walter White

 

 

 

Punt return game worse than ever.

What?!

We let two punts roll a long ways yesterday, and we fumbled one the prior game. One punt we didn't catch was downed at the one yard line against Minny. Not executing the fundamentals is killing this team. We need DPE with that fearless, I can catch everything and take it to the house, attitude he had last year

Nice

 

 

Where's the offensive PI for the pushoff?

That was what I was thinking. It was very obvious one at that too. BIG refs are incompetent on good days and then there is crap like this. Now I am waiting for us to get called for an offensive PI..smh.

I've heard rumblings that a Nike deal is in place under the table

Appears Rusillo and Kanell may be fans of the alt unis...helmet is on the show right now. (Edit: I'm sure they aren't really fans...) image.jpeg

 

 

 

I would group them like this. Had to guess on a couple of them.

 

Defense (14):

Holding - 1

Pass Interference - 9

Illegal Helmet Contact - 1

Offside - 3

 

 

Offense - Procedure (19):

12 men on the field - 2

Delay of game - 1

False Start - 9

Illegal Formation - 3

Illegal Procedure - 2

Illegal Shift - 1

Substitution Infraction - 1

 

 

Offense - In Play (13):

Illegal Block - 2

Ineligible man downfield - 1

Intentional Grounding - 2

Holding - 7

Pass Interference - 1

 

 

Special Teams (2):

Illegal Formation - 1

Roughing the Kicker - 1

 

 

Misc (13):

Personal Foul - 6

Unsportsmanlike Conduct - 6

Proper Equipment - 1

 

I am not saying they didn't happen I am just wondering when we roughed the kicker, didn't have proper equipment, had offensive pass interference or had 12 men on the field. I just don't remember those being called.

 

 

 

 

Randy Edsall for DC would be very wise and realistic hire, IMO, and we potentially fire Banker tomorrow and pick Edsall up. We'd only have Edsal for a few seasons (unless we pay close to 1m/yr for him, I'd wager) and he's made some excellent defenses out of nothing more than chewing gum, hockey tickets, toothpicks, and 2* recruits that even MacGyver would be jealous of.

Has a connection with Hank Hughes. And although Edsall didn't work out at Maryland, the guy can recruit very well. If only Riley wasn't married to Banker

Also has a connection with Stewart. Stewart was his DC from 2012-2014.

I remember Collins getting called for offsides with his helmet over the ball a couple times this year, and I see this all the time and it hardly ever gets called.

Just a look at the opponents we played both years so far.

 

 

Last year, Nebraska's secondary gave up 359 yards passing to Miami. The defense gave up 31 points

This year nebraska's secondary gave up 379 yards passing to Miami. The defense gave up 33 points. OT FG not included.

 

Last year Nebraska's secondary gave up 261 yards passing to Illinois. The defense gave up 14 points.

This year Nebraska's secondary gave up 251 yards passing to Illinois. The defense gave up 14 points

 

Last year Nebraska's secondary "gave up" 46 yards passing to Wisconsin. The defense gave up 59 points.

This year Nebraska's secondary gave up 322 yards passing to Wisconsin. The defense gave up 23 points.

 

 

Well you cant doubt we looked much better against Wisky this year than under Bo. This transition is gonna take time. It is what it is. I think it will turn out ok.

Didn't Wisky also have several starters out?

 

 

We really could find something in the next week and rattle off 7 straight to end the year. Seriously. I know the mood a lot of us are in right now, you say no way in hell. But step back and think. Would that really surprise you? Knowing what we know about the craziness of college football these days. What would "shock" you at this point? Winning 7 in row wouldnt. And niether would losing the next 6.

I think that the future is bright, but this just isn't the year. Doesn't seem to be enough depth yet and while there was definite improvement all around, the players are still learning the system. I don't think we should completely count out a bowl game this year, it just doesn't seem likely from what we've seen at this point through 6 games.

Are. You. Serious. Minnesota and Purdue are the only 2 games I can see us winning but in a toss up. No way we go into Rutgers and beat them in that environment. Get ready for 3-9 or 4-8.

 

still cant snap the ball decent

It's these kinds of details that are hurting us. (I'm also amazed at the consistently poor snaps)
