      Well again, when it's priced out at 75 B a year and gains from the tax are estimated at 300 B a year the tax covers. Even in a dynamic system with increased enrollment the spread is covered. You'll even notice that there is a category with an expected gain of 21 B a year with no cost. So arguably that money could go to tuition as well.

      Again, this is you trusting one person and me trusting another with neither of us doing math. That said, the article you cite + the 21 B raised by cutting loopholes approaches covering.

      Didn't realize my comment would create a storm. I don't really care for Republican or a Democratic view. I'm a Conservative Libertarian I suppose. More then anything, this video shines light on what America better resolve. We are in debt, we must get back to work and have the smallest government possible.

       

  2. The sooner the NCAA makes Saban play by the same rules as everyone else the better. With their current roster and the players they are looking to sign, they are roughly 8 spots over the 85 scholarship limit. Saban is either going to have to cut 8 players from his current roster, or he will have to drop 8 HS seniors on National Signing Day giving them no time to explore other options. http://www.rollbamaroll.com/2014/1/27/5349996/2014-roster-lookahead-the-number-crunch

      Div1 football isn't a hold-my-hand-and-sing-kumbaya event. If a player doesn't perform, they're not holding up their end of the bargain. Apparently accountability can only go one way here?

      again youre missing the whole concept. the coach owes it to the player. Theyre the one(s) that begged the player to come. Obviously your being the only one arguing this means youre the only one who just doesnt get it.

      I don't know man, he's been really, really bad so far this year. There's no denying that. We'll see if he can get it turned around, but it's not like I'm making this stuff up. The fact that he's had a legendary career doesn't mean he's great or even good in 2015. "It is what it is".

    3. True2tRA

      True2tRA

      He's not been really good, but I don't know about really, really bad. KC and Baltimore have very good pass rush defenses and Denver's offensive line is a mess. I think those things combined with the new staff and new system have made Peyton look a little worse than he actually is, but no doubt he's not the same guy. But not the same guy is still not being outplayed by half the league or more. Not even close.

      @knapplc, I don't feel ripped on at all with the responses.  But ya, I'm not ditching anything we've accomplished in these few short days of recruiting.  It's miraculous.  Which is all the more sobering ... because I'm grateful for what his staff has accomplished ... and yet, it feels like we lost ground to OSU ... even this year.  We probably should lose ground this year with the coaching change ... but dang, OSU has had an amazing recruiting year.

      Recruiting matters. So does development. I like Nebraska's chances in this conference going forward with Frost and Friends.

      huskered17

      T.O. Didn't have recruiting classes like Meyer, but did just fine developing them. Frost knows what it takes first hand, from his days with Tom, and Tom's still there to bounce things off of. I like are chances to get back to the top of the heap, in a few years.  

       

      GBR!!!

      @krc1995 Don't we always pride ourselves on being honest fans? They're being hypocrites if they said stuff like Dez did, but s#!t up when U of M and tOSU say it too. Really those guys just look like idiots and it'd be nice if everyone knew.

    3. krc1995

      krc1995

      But why get triggered? We are all fighting for a season.  Want to bash on ESPN- yes, please, but why react to the Field’s petition with “but if we did it,,....” it seems whiny. 

    4. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      @krc1995 I don’t get where you’re coming from on this. Nebraska fans aren’t whining about Fields or that Michigan and tOSU had basically the same stance on the season cancellation as Nebraska did. Repeat, it’s not whining. It is done to point out the hypocrisy of Desmond ‘Douche’ Howard and the other talking heads that jumped on his bash Nebraska train while not saying squat about others who were saying the same things. Did I mention that Dez is a douche?

    3. Michiganball

      Michiganball

      Michigan is outstanding, on defense, the offense is to inexperienced and lacks leadership. Nothing we didn't see coming though, looking at 3-4 losses this year, 127th youngest team of 130 in college atm. 5 turnovers last game, 11 penalties in the first half this game, it's noob city.

      Indiana is not that good, neither were Spartans, if Huskers manage some offense and dont commit a silly amount turnovers they will win.

      @NUance, I caught a virus after being on a cruise in early February ... sickest I'd ever been.  Knocked me out for about 21-22 days.  Over the past year I've had a weak/compromised immune system and get have caught most anything.  I've never gotten sick but a few years back after losing my folks, then my marriage of 25 years, working through an addictive mind, I discovered my body was in "adrenal exhaustion" and I was at level 6 heading to the final level.  Had to even stop running as I was depleating myself in some of my core resources.  So, I'll be curious to see how things are in a month or two for folks like me.  I'm experiencing incredible peace and each day is full of love, life and liberty.  Be well, enjoy the day.

      If we're going to be worried about recruits seeing this board then HB should probably be shuttered. I never did buy into this message board thing adversely affecting recruiting. If they can't differentiate the nutjobs of the fanbase, they aren't going to fare too well as a collegiate athlete.

      I'm constantly reminded and told by the board of this effect. I did not say this. So, I'm implying that the board should address the issue since they believe it could possible affect recruiting. FYI, I'm using the thought to my advantage. :-)

       

      On another thought, I'm of the opinion that Husker Nation does not have the best fans on earth. The proof is how we act when we are no longer at the top of the college football world. I read thoughts from some real lose...

  14. Love K-State, they have recruited 3-4 four star athletes since 2009 all the rest are 2 and 3 stars ... and they put a great product on the field. I admire that.
