Slow yer Roll

While we're cleaning house, could we get some professional talent in there to help Greg Sharp on sports nightly?

Husker Honks: " Act like you been there before."

Neon Dion:  "WHAT????????"

Tunnel walk of shame is missing some great material. 

So now we got Fraudst, and Chinaloser?

We should have a nickname contest.

I can’t imagine the GS defense has the depth to stand up to this very long. They already look gassed

Are we starting to lean on them?

I can't wait till it starts getting chippy down there.

Do we have to wait til half to get rid of Chinander. Just go pick some rando out of the stands to run the defense. 

I can't believe we'd have a worse record if we just let the kids do their thing sandlot style.....sans coaches.

At least we are not Iowa. Through 6 quarters this season they have produced, 1 TD, 1FG and 2 safeties and a grand total of 244 yards.  

I wouldn't bust their balls too much till after we beat them.  Hopefully in the next 10, or 20 years.

It's probably the ol' " Great athlete makes a poor coach"  conundrum. 

We could discuss the details of that forever.

Frost keeps talking about getting Rahmir Johnson involved; PUT RAHMIR JOHNSON AT SLOT RECEIVER!!!!! So obvious!

Welcome to the board Rahmir.

What?

Have you read this board...at all?

I don't know anything about gambling,  but I've been researching how to bet on nebraska pulling an amber heard today.

This is exhausting. #1 There is no such thing as a slam dunk hire. Scott was a slam dunk, Pelini was a slam dunk, and you look around CFB all sorts of so called slam dunks fizzle. Look at Herman, OBrien, Weiss, Franklin, etc. So many slam dunks have crashed and burned its asinine to think any single coach would have anymore success than the last.

 

The truth is there is something broken in Nebraska athletics that goes well beyond the head coach. Maybe it's the money, maybe it's finding players who know what real work looks like and are willing to do it, maybe it's boosters and their demands, maybe it's all of the above. Whatever it is, changing coaches will not fix it without finding the root and cleaning out the rot. I fear Nebraska athletics has become too institutionalized, too bureaucracized to find its way again. 

Then it needs burnt to the ground.

And start over,  just like a controlled burn in a CRP field.

There was plenty of s#!t that went on during Osborne's tenure. Y'all have just conveniently decided to forget it.

I always hear this, but no one ever elaborates.

Worst gossipers ever.

Would Gruden work?

If you could buy relevancy,  every team would be a contender. 

It still  comes down to a leader you would chew nails, and run through walls for. 

How about:

Flashes of brilliance, leading to over confident malaise, culminated with an excruciating bullet hole in our foot?

Or pent up frustrations  come flooding out and  they go all Ralphie on NW.

So, Covid finally found my family last week. My symptoms were very mild, but when I was on the upswing, my senses of taste and smell suddenly went away. Now, I absolutely love eating. Trying new foods, discovering flavors, and eating and cooking food is simply a major part of my identity. But now there is no joy in it. I still eat food of course, out of an obligation, because I am hungry. But nothing satisfies me, and I get no excitement these days out of eating, cooking, or shopping. I used to get excited to eat, but my last meal was bland. My next meal will be bland. But I am going to eat anyway. I hope to be excited about eating again someday, because I remember what food used to taste like. But lately I've eaten too many tasteless bites and have been disappointed. I don't know when I will be able to taste again. I won't be excited about food until I actually take a bite and sense some flavor again. 

 

And in my own self pity about food and loss of taste, I also realized this is a perfect analogy for how I feel about Husker football. 

Good take.

Road Hunting in mid to  late 70's with the game on KRVN.

That's my happy place.

Ssds

This is going to be a great game. 

Both teams are in a "must win situation", and being the first college football action of the year, the entire college football universe will be watching. 

Sounds like the manning kid chose TX.

I wonder what the nil deal was there?

Can he just retire now?

The kool-aid is flowing again. 

Seems early. 

Let's get one win under our pitcher before we start counting chickens.
