It was, then I ate an Abelardo's breakfast burrito.  

TBH, I'm just extremely sad that my daughter is getting screwed out of a football season during her last semester at UNL. Two out of three ain't bad.....unless we're talking Husker football.

And yes, I left an OOC beaut in there for y'all. 

I see it!  Crafty

That's kind of where I'm at, Mav. I almost expect there not to be any fans for most (if not all) of 2020, but I'd be surprised if the season didn't go forward, on time even. I think you'll see testing expanded, and used on players and staff before games. It's also possible that there is a medicine out there that could successfully be used off label while we wait on a vaccine.... Also read this morning that the NBA has a 25 day plan to come back.... At some point, the economy begins to matter, and college football is essential to most athletic department budgets. Without it, prepare to see a lot of schools, cut a lot of programs.

@Mavric and, what have we had to do to get to the peak?  We have shut everything down and preached social distancing.  If you all of a sudden open everything up, how does the virus continue to be contained?

There's a point of return. I think it's important to keep that in mind. 

@huKSer no, not at least...at most...and it was an unearned and undeserved half of a natty

@ZRod  We literally did own them, including Boulder

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nebraska_Territory

When gold was discovered in Colorado we didn't want that land part of Nebraska due to the type of people it would attract.  It explains a lot.

A new territory was formed from land that other territories did not want thus constraining all the gold digging jackholes in 1 place.  They called it Colorado  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colorado_Territory

With Big Ten officials?  They'd probably call targeting on Nate Gerry on that play now.

Intentionally kicking the ball is not legal, even at the time.  But unless they could somehow deem it intentional I would think they'd have to let it go.

I think it would be a catch now just like it was a catch then. Saying that, I really don't know what a catch is anymore so it probably wouldn't stand after 20 minutes of replay. 

How can you have done something all day? It's only 1:30pm. I woke up not too long ago.

You have to submit 3 choices...and we get to vote.

Ha nice try

I vote for Ha.

Yeah that was awful, dude is a 61yr old Stroke and Cancer survivor and a living legend.

This reinforces my theory that every time Nebraska gets national exposure for anything it makes us look awful. Lol

At least we aren’t “Florida Man” status?

FWIW I'll be the first to admit I haven't always been the best version of myself over there (not saying that's the case for you).

Logical, well thought out, and sourced discourse is always good. Drive by potshots that muddy the conversation add nothing to the threads. Opposing views backed with facts, logic, stats etc only help strengthen arguments.

Upset????

The fu......

I was going to post something about how remarkable it is to have gone 4-8 and recruiting #14, then saw Arkansas was 2-10 and recruiting #16

Yes, Frost definitely has this thing headed in the right direction. I'll always believe it is important to recruit relatively well (which we have been doing) but it is much more important to develop, utilize and foster a winning culture.

Agree with Tom on this. 247 Composite is the best overall ranking.

Except that it includes ESPN

I have us at #12 in my rankings, with a chance to move up to #1 if we can land one more 3-star prospect.

Kind of gives you an idea about where volleyball falls on the old pecking order at ESPN

I wish they'd give it a little more of a chance. E.g., they could have one flipping spot on their list of news stories that mentions that the national championship game is on ESPN2.

ESPN, it's not for everyone.

I think Eichorst should just focus on flipping burgers somewhere.

Who?

Henrich, Berhart, Mills. 

Bookie, Narcisse and Bubba Starling

@Redux you forgot Owa

I like Dabo too.  He’s the kind of guy who is comfortable in his own skin and a heck of a coach. Very down to earth.  My husband would say he’s the kind of guy you could have a beer with. 

Bonus points for using the term "babyface". 

Nah. He sucks. He doesn't wanna share his millions with the players who make his money. Sensitive subject for him

And maybe do something with the corners of the stadium, make it so they don't look like they were made out of Tinker Toys?

Why would they expand? The stadium doesn’t need to be bigger. 

Even if they didn't increase total seats, they could make some benches wider...

From what i've read huskerboard gets info fairly quickly  on updates on recruiting so I'm not sure I'd spend the money. Mav and a few others here are on point. 

If you want to look up a recruit's ratings and such, yeah, totally go for 247. If you're looking for rumors and such, though, I wouldn't bother, as that stuff usually gets around to boards like this one pretty quickly.

The 6 losses were a necessary evil IMO.  Tough love is always more beneficial in the long run.

which board?

@RedNebraskan Post a link? I mostly see delusion so far. Not that they'll win the game (that's not delusional) but that Nebraska is some s#!tty bottom feeder B1G team. It's like they're screaming yelling "I can't hear you" and pretending Mike Riley is still our coach.

They’re still Nebby & always will be. Let’s not get too worried.

How dumb can you get?

Lol, + 1 for taking the pressure off me. I thought maybe I was not seeing what I was seeing. 

1. Bethune Cookman is on the schedule

2. The team is bound to come together for at least one Big Ten win

That's about all I can hope for after the past couple weeks.

I'll visit that feeling in December.  Right now I'm busy expecting to beat Purdue

Uggg, honestly this has been such a drag and seems so freaking long that I am not even excited for Saturday yet, I am like spent.  I know come Saturday it will be awesome but right now it just seems to DRAG.

I am going to report this...for posting about using drugs and for bad acting.

Nope.

He reminds me of a wrestling heel, which I always find amusing.  I don't remember him at all, so that also has something to do with it probably.

He was 3-9-1 against Nebraska. We kept them out of the 94' title game and that was his last season. CO was damn good that year beating 5 ranked teams, but not NEBRASKA

I like it that they are writing in the CO papers "hatred for Nebraska" and "People who wear red hear about it."  We don't have this with Iowa or Wisky.

I mean, it was more heated and competitive for the last 20 years of our time in the Big 8/12 than Oklahoma was. 

Not a rivalry.

Each of the services evaluates players a little differently so I'm guessing Rivals places a higher value on the recruits we've signed so far versus some of those other services.

Ended the day with 24 guys and the #22 class per 247

@RedNebraskan Riley probably didn't want to mess with too many things at his age and stage in his career, and he probably managed the players like that at Oregon State and let the players be accountable to themselves.  In some years, that probably worked great.  In some years, it probably worked poorly.  That's how you get to be a career .500 coach.

I dont know the answer but one thing is for sure -- they're going to be stronger and more in shape than they ever have been and have the best team chemistry ever, too.  (I actually may believe that this year, hopefully not to my detriment)

It's possible Philipp was a good coach but the coaches above him refused to let him give any kind of punishment. E.g. the threat of reduced playing time or not starting.
