Martinez looked off. Mentally, physically, every aspect of the game. He didn't have the energy we normally saw last year either. Like some have mentioned, he's either sick, hurt, or dealing with something personal that's affecting his play.

 

I don't think we're going to find out. I expect coaches to chalk it up to just having an off day and that's it.

Did you see him yelling at his team during the 4th and 10 late in the game? Composure was completely off

No excuses, we look terrible. Back to hoping we finish with 7-8 wins... 9 or 10 is out of the picture

GO BIG RED. (i had a nightmare that we were losing 31-14 at one point lets hope that doesnt happen)

This is the best video I’ve seen to date. Frost was the keynote speaker at the Empowering Tomorrows Leaders Conference put on by US Strategic Command. He is speaking to military leaders at Offutt, AFB. Humble, well spoken and wise. I’ve watched it 4 times. It’s roughly 50 minutes of tremendous insight. 

 

This... is Nebraska.

Damn just watched it, gives me chills man... a dynasty is brewing that's for sure.

Regardless of his commitment whenever that comes, I'm holding out the slightest hope that a good season by Nebraska could change his mind before NSD. 

Yep. This was similar to how Henrich's recruitment was going until the very end. I think Frost will be able to convince him in due time.

Sigh. Another big one  off the board. They need to find two OLB badly this class.

Hopefully we can steal Kaden Johnson from Wisconsin that'd make me happy

Watts and Omar Manning please

I see I’ll be missing the first game because of work. Again!

If it's a non-career job, I'd call in sick and risk being fired to not miss the game 

My friend at Burke (talks to Watts) who told me about Henrich and Hickman being solid to Nebraska before it was reported has just told me today after Betts commitment that Watts is thinking pretty hard on committing to Nebraska. Still not solid but its a lot better then his stance a few weeks/months ago

Recruiting blowing up and we offered him first... noice

Talking last season about some drills he had his guys doing and a little coaching philosophy. 4:55 to 5:55

 

 

 

He fits right in with our staff after watching that. Scheme and all. Love the hire

It makes a really big difference whether the Athletic Director and/or the department lied to the public about a criminal investigation into one of their players and how they were handling it.

 

However, I'm rereading the timeline and the statements and it's plausible they didn't know the details.

They know what would happen if they lied during that first statement and that all the info would soon be present. What purpose would they have to even think about lying? At this point people are just reading too much into it to be drawing conclusions like this

People are blowing this story up into something more then it really is. I do not understand why people are up in flames all of a sudden thinking we are the next michigan state/baylor etc.

Also, she still hasnt reported it as an assault. Her parents are just now "thinking" about pressing assualt charges. This very well could be a video guys sent him out of spite bc it was his ex.  We dont know.  NO WAY am I trying to say she is not a victim, but I also am in NO position to say he was completely in the wrong....any more than tons of teens with nudies. Imagine Washington seeing everyone INSTANTLY turning their backs on him without knowing entire story. Family??

 

Again, IF he is guilty of malicious intent, or malicious felony, then narrative changes, but how about innocent until proven guilty !

Lets not forgot the parents likely received/saw the video years ago and if they hadn't, they definitely did now because in the article it states the girl was told not to look at the video because her parents had an ipad app that lets them look at all of her messages (aka they watched the video). Rape/sexual assault would be pretty easy to tell from a video i'd assume and parents would jump to press charges immediately for rape if that were the case

or those that drink and drive or smoke pot or use PEDs as well....what he did was petty as hell but we dont know the context of it all 

This. The punishment is obviously going to be opinionated and not everyone will agree no matter what. 

For me personally people get kicked off teams for domestic violence, sexual assault, rape, physical bullying and so on

suspensions would be skipping classes, PED's, smoking pot, lying to coaches, and obviously what mo washington did here.

Obviously there needs to be a zero tolerance policy in regards to child pornography.  

 

Right?

Don't know if it matters in regard to law or not but I think he was 17 when he received the video and she was 15. Don't know if that could still count as child porn or if he could claim he just forgot to delete it off his phone once he turned 18 or what quite honestly.

What I'm saying is that if he sent that, even if he didn't know about the sexual assault part, it's still a terrible act. The fact he might have been acting out of anger or jealousy or whatever might make it more relatable, but it doesn't make it any less atrocious. And I'm deliberately making the hypothetical because I'm pushing back against the notion that it's no big deal even if he did it, which is separate from whether he sent the text or not.

 

Getting kicked off the Husker team is not life ruining. As we've seen over and over, he'll many other chances from other schools.

What's the point of kicking him off the team then if this issue happened before he was a member of the team and he is going to end up getting other chances anyway? Suspend him for a few games and move on. This really isn't that HUGE of an issue like rape/sexual assault/domestic violence where it screams "kick him off the team"

Just now, RedDenver said:

There's nothing she could have said to him that warranted the kind of response that involves revenge porn.

No but it doesn't mean it should be a life-ruining thing. This is not the same thing as actually committing sexual assault, rape, or domestic violence. This was before Mo had good influencers and he should still have a chance to change as a person. There are MANY college athletes who are s#!tty people/were s#!tty people doesn't mean they should be completely removed of any chance in life for being or having been s#!tty

1 minute ago, Hedley Lamarr said:

what did she say to him? How did they break up? Did she cheat on him? There is another side to this story. Is what he did immature? Yes. Was he a high school senior talking to his ex high school girlfriend? yes. I am not saying slut shaming is ok but I think this whole thing is going to make a lot more sense rather soon. 

Agreed. It's annoying seeing so many people just ignoring context just for the sake of wanting to see an athletic program go up in flames (talking about reddit). Obviously what he did was really s#!tty but it shouldn't mean he doesn't deserve a second change/get his life ruined over it. Obviously I'm assuming he didn't know the video was rape/sexual assault and thought it was just consensual. He obviously felt like the girl was only texting him because now he is "famous" in a way and wanted to remind her why he still has ill feelings towards her. That's my guess atleast 

Just now, RedDenver said:

Forget the rape or sexual assault or legal aspects for a moment. If Mo sent the text, then he sent a sex video in order to humiliate this girl. Is that not enough for him to be kicked off the team?

Yes this does make him a s#!tty person and it may be a stretch but obviously Mo grew up in a very bad background if you have seen his documentaries where he likely had no good influencers whatsoever. This whole incident happened right before he got to UNL so him being under Frost & Co's wing might have changed him as a person. Yeah it's only one year but the culture can change his whole mindset. No, it doesn't mean we should necessarily keep him on the team but I wouldn't be critical of Frost/Staff if they did keep him on the team (obviously people of other fanbases would and would use it as trash talk material for years to come). Lets not forget that Frost got Hughes out of Juco who I'm pretty sure was only in juco because of a domestic violence charge or something like that

I'm already exhausted reading the premature outrage everywhere and everyone's go-to move of screaming for someone to get fired even for something as little as this. Blows my mind the way people think on reddit/other message boards when no information is even being presented. It's just a bunch of low lives looking for some action and crave seeing people being fired no matter what it's for as long as it's not their program. And no, I was not commenting on any of those threads during Schiano/Urban Meyer/Michigan State scandals etc until actual firings/statements and other actions actually started rolling into place. 

If they kept similar mechanics instead of the crappy new madden mechanics and updated everything in NCAA to be up to date including the playoff system (being able to choose between 4 and 8 teams), I'd be more then willing to spend 200$+ on that game... been waiting for years

My first attempt at putting together and editing a video ever, hopefully it turned out well, let me know what you guys think: Adrian "2AM Closing Time" Martinez || Official 2018-2019 Freshman Highlights ᴴᴰ
