  1. I'm hoping the young guns are just in need of a year to get bigger, stronger and faster. Because watching Utter, Hahn and Conrad completely whiff blocks and go plays without touching anyone is getting hard to watch.
  2. Wow....Really puts football in perspective Heart hurts for the family and Nebraska brothers You will be missed RIP Sam
  3. Wow, what a pos thing to do. KW seems like he is insecure and has anger management issues, no wonder he loved Bo so much. His next head coach and position coach can enjoy that baggage.DB and Sharp were talking about a screenshotted conversation, between KW and another party, that got out. I thought they alluded to it being a text convo between players, but could be wrong. Anybody else hear that too or see it? They were referring to this "conversation." And I think someone above nailed it: you're talking about a guy who spent 5 years at NU, went through several injuries, earned a double major, was granted a 6th year of eligibility and decided to move on. He specifically, on several occasions in the interview, said that the current staff was not worse or bad, just different. You can question is reasoning when it comes to making the move, I have no problem with that. But for Peter to say KW (and apparently other DL who left this year) lacks heart and balls and were faking, is at least as out of line as ANYTHING, including the drugs and bust comments, that KW said or tweeted. You're wrong. It does lack balls to quit on a team on your own volition because of self interest. For the record KW was insinuating that the coaching was inadequate. A respectable person would have left, and said nothing, and certainly would not have agreed to go on the radio.. KW was irrelevant, and he wanted to be relevant so he went Big Red bashing one last time. I have a hard time with this thought process. Are you saying that you have to stick with the first job you ever get because if you quit you are quitting on your "team" and only are thinking of yourself? I have less issue with him deciding to leave and I think it's best for him and the Husker team that he does move on, but it's the narrative behind it that raises a brow. I know we won't ever hear the true story from either KW or the coaching staff and I'm fine by that because I take his words on 1620 worth a grain of salt.We all know JPs history and his attitude, which doesn't excuse his own tweets, but KW going out of his way and comment like that is inexcusable and lacks maturity. It's one rough moment in his life and it doesn't define him, but dang does he have some work to do on himself to grow up. He mentioned wanting Husker fans to understand his decision, to support him, and doesn't want to leave on bad terms...not exactly the look to earn that respect. Defending him by saying that he has been in the program for 5, would've been 6 years, may provide reasoning for him to move on, but it doesn't excuse his own actions. I totally get what you are saying but look, on this site we have people ripping him and that is "okay" but he can't do an interview and really in the end not say anything all that bad at all?I may not be following your point the way you intended, so for that I apologize ahead of time, but if I am gathering your point correctly, I'm not ripping his decision to leave...I more so don't understand it nor do I buy into many points he made about why he's leaving. My raw feelings I'll keep to myself, unlike JP KW and some message board posters. I'll say this though, his response to JP opened the door for criticism, it doesn't make it right, but it's expected at that point. As is JP getting ripped from people here as well.I don't recall who called me out, but I had a beer and split a bottle of wine tonight, did I do that right? ...use the word narrative? Heck, I'll call him a chicken f***** I want a goddamn litre o' cola!
  4. I don't see it's imperative that he sees the field this year. There have been very talented QB's who started as redshirt freshmen without seeing the field the prior season. If POB wins the backup job, it's a different story. But, right now he's #4. Who are you thinking of? I'm having a hard time thinking of one who had a strong season as a redshirt freshman, especially in a pro system. I prefer not to have 2017 be a "throwaway" season during which we are breaking in a new QB. That said, I don't know that POB should be considered the QB of the future. Maybe it's Bush for 2017. Just saying that if POB starting in '17 is where the coaches see it going, then they should get him live reps this year. It's a delicate situation, to be sure. Jameis Winston for starters?
  5. I've seen Tommy make a lot of smart and instinctual plays too. His play against Michigan for the win as a freshman (?) comes to mind. People put too much emphasis on his supposedly awful decisions and forget he makes at least as many great plays too. Trying to think of those great plays against Iowa this last year. Tommy is the type of player that makes you drop your jaw whether its good or bad. QBs have to be steady and that's something he has struggled with immensely.
  6. I think you guys are underestimating NU's chances especially with two of his best friends committed here already
  7. Well if Bo didn't have a problem covering up Randy's failed drug tests I'm sure he didn't have a problem doing it with academics as well
  8. For me, it would be crazy if we could have had Coan and just decided to pass on him. You get both committments here if you can. Kids want to be told they are THE guy
  9. I've heard 12 CT He's announcing tomorrow? Husker nation will either be or
  10. Adding the TE reverse after Michigan State ran it against us worked pretty well.That's putting in one play. It's not a complete overhaul of the offense. How many offensive minded head coaches have you seen make a complete overhaul of their offense
  11. Sounded like the coaches just wanted him back in the bullpen
  12. I really enjoy Sam's takes when it comes to practices as he isn't a sunshine pumper like the boys from the Journal Star and Sam has pretty good insight
  13. Me TOO I can't stand McValley...I am shocked he has the class coming in that he does. I think they should have hired Collins or Wojo instead of him. Can't stand him because your coach isn't able to beat him? Lets look here if Greg doesn't get hired by CU that means Doug never comes to Creighton. Creighton would most likely still be in the MV so all in all it was a genius move
  14. Was a good weekend....Hopefully Big Ben and Scott can stay hot with some days off this week
  15. Hater.....Hope you're ready for another whoopin next year in Lincoln
  16. The Ball State loss*That TT drubbing The Purdue drubbing I would put those 3 losses ahead of Wisconsin. There's absolutely no way I'd put any of those games above either loss to Wisconsin in the B1G title game or the 408 game See...by not putting Purdue over those...it goes to show how crappy people though things were last year and how lowered the expectations became. We had a backup QB playing on the road it's a bad loss but nothing like the Wisconsin games Getting run out of the building in the Big 10 championship game on National Television by a mediocre Wisconsin team has been the most embarrassing game I've ever watched Everyone on Purdue's team is a backup... Wisconsin's QB was Curt Phillips who the #### is Curt Phillps He threw 6 passes and they scored 70

  19. She's so easy to hate. In terms of most despised characters in that universe, Voldemort would be #1, but Umbridge is my #2. Yes but it's easy to respect the power of Voldemort......Umbridge was just a fat toad (Got in the Harry Potter reference for the year)
