    The guy that wrote this is an idiot. Not only did Thompson beat out and start over a guy 9 tiers ahead of him, the dude who wrote it got the situation entirely wrong "Card was Texas starter before going down with an injury"...no he was Texas starter until he was pulled the first game and replaced with Thompson who won the job long term. That took 5 seconds of research.

    I am surprised and disappointed Rutgers did not make it.  They had a solid year and played well enough IMO.

    That was my first thought, but took a look at their schedule and woooof. Played one top 50 school in their non-con and lost 15-10 (single game). Played 3 top 100 teams in conf play and went 3-7 against those teams (with 6 of those at home!). Rutgers with 1 top 50 win, compare that to a bubble team that got in, Dallas Baptist, who had 13 top 50 wins. B1G teams really need to revamp their non-con schedules, racking up wins against nobodies is gonna keep you home in June.

  3. Will be interesting to see how AM does at KSU. He's got some decent size shoes to fill when it comes to Skylar Thompson. Thompson was an NFL draft pick (7th Round), 16 TD to 4 INT over his last 300 pass attempts, Adrian 14 TD to 10 INT...Thompsons top two targets were a 5-7 return specialist and a 5-6 Running Back - where Adrian was throwing to NFL draft pick Toure and an NFL caliber TE in Austin Allen. Adrian has the edge on athleticism, but has also been banged up every season due to over use in the running game. Adrian will have a better OL and Running game but how will he fare with worse receiving targets? Will he be able to throw guys open and hit the smaller receivers/RBs in the flats with consistency?

  4. What has me excited for this season is we have finally reached the end of the line. We're either watching December/January football or Frost is on the unemployment line.

    Senior Obama administration officials engaged in a secret meeting with Iran in 2018 as part of an effort to undermine the Trump administration's diplomatic push to isolate the hardline regime, according to an internal State Department document.

    Pompeo's group the whistle blower on this? Didn't he just visit the President of Taiwan?

    If this was without the knowledge of the administration, then I hope the official(s) are charged the same as Flynn.

    Flynn was charged with lying to the FBI, right? Not violating the Logan Act?

    I don't see why the dem party in Nebraska doesn't actually pursue this.  Outside of Omaha, Lincoln and a few local races here and there it's a lost cause.  And those people could also run as Republicans, correct?

     

    Just fold up shop and have everyone switch to GOP!

    I gave up this year. It did feel good to actually have my vote matter for once. I don't think I'll ever switch back, there is really no point in being a registered dem in my county. I think the less crazy R strategy is the new normal for me.

    I suspect no one really knows how they will react in such a situation. Some might lock up. Who knows how well trained they are. There was a church in Colorado Springs that was attacked and the security guard did great and stopped the dude in his tracks. It has worked sometimes. 

    If we can't trust cops or security guards or good guys with guns, then what really are our options? Keep guns out of crazy peoples hands, or just be cool with kids getting mowed down?

    The police are going to have a lot of explaining to do. The more we hear about this, the worse it gets for them.

    Just saw this stuff....what the ever loving f#&% were they doing? Did I read that an off duty border control officer went in alone and killed the shooter? How many more kids dead if it was up to the PD? 40% of the cities budget so they can play solider every day except the day they are actually needed?

    Thanks. But didn't the season not go their way mostly bc of team issues, nutrition and injuries or do I have it all wrong as to why their season didn't pan out like they wanted to?

    Lots of factors. But I think Bolt would tell you he didn't build a team that loves to compete and win. We lost some key arms to injury, but we looked lost at the plate at times, lost focus in the field, and absolutely did not know how to finish.

    Any of those names big losses?

    Bragg is probably the only one that would see significant playing time next year, and even then it would be just bullpen work. This seems pretty calculated by Bolt. He does not want a repeat of 2022.

    First of a tonnnnn. This thread should be busy. Bolt isn't messing around with the roster flip. 

    Insider on another board posted these names as gone.

     

    Mason, Feekin, Bradford, Bragg, Banjoff, Palmer, Steihl

  13. Hard for me to point to one reason for 3 different situations. Baseball was disappointing, but Bolt had our best season in 15 years last year - and sometimes baseball is funny like that - Mississippi St won the CWS last year and are sitting at home just like us. Frost thought he was good enough to copy and paste his program building formula at a school nothing like Nebraska, and it wasn't until year 4 that he had a boss tell him he needs some help. Like Frost, Hoiberg tried to use a formula that worked for him, but it appears the college game had caught up to him while he was away for 5+ seasons. To summarize, Bolt the jury is still out, tough season but I won't ignore what happened last year, could just be flukey baseball stuff. Football and Basketball "struggle adjusting" is probably the closest to the truth. Flat out refusing to adjust until they had a decent boss might be even closer to the truth...

    IIRC they are in same conf as Omaha.  Would love to see some younger arms on the mound for Huskers in this one. 

    Yeah, this one is irrelevant in the grand scheme of things. Maybe send out Christo and let him try and get comfortable against D1 competition. We will need him next year.

    Why run a small lab in Idaho, when you can use your medical background to grift? Add Cole to the growing list of opportunistic grifters who want to exploit passionate, uneducated folks that want to be coddled. Guessing Dr. Cole is swimming in money.

    I want someone other than Biden.  But, so far, it appears the GOP is on one path and that is to nominate either Trump or someone trying to be Trump.  I can't vote for that.

     

    If it's Biden or Trump/Trump-want-to-be, I will find someone else to vote for.

     

    Pence is one big hell no for me.

    Biden/Trump part 2 would be depressing as hell. I read an article about Jared Polis positions and how that touch of libertarian could play well in the general election. I doubt that's a route democrats go, but it would be intriguing to see how well a pro weed, pro choice, anti lockdown, pro 2A, pro LGBT (obviously) style would fare in the general.

    It’s not as simple as saying Ohio State is the better program right now.

    Then goes on to explain how its pretty much that simple haha.
