  1. I would not. It's nepotism and a bad look on top of it all. It's how the Hunter Biden laptop s#!t show was cooked up. It will be used as ammunition for your opponents at some point in time, no matter how clean you operate. Hard no. If your kids are qualified for a top administration job they'll do fine without your help while you're in office. If you're elected president, the country takes precedence over whether or not your kids are appointed to your administration. I'm not sure why ethics are so hard to understand.
  2. I have this uneasy feeling that right now we're in the calm before the storm as far as our democracy is concerned. The forces that propped up and enabled this narcissist are still active. My prediction when he was first elected was that tanks would roll...in our own country. How close were we to that happening? I'm also concerned about friends and even moreso family I have that follow this psycho. The old saying birds of a feather, flock together has real meaning. If one can't see through this s#!t, are they equally as f#&%ed up? Let's just hope in the end that this guy is marginalized to the point of being harmless. But if he ever gets in power again, heads will roll, literally. The last four years will seem like a cakewalk in comparison.

  4. https://gfycat.com/pepperyadeptaldabratortoise Yeah that doesn't work
  5. At this point Jurgens isn't going to learn how to shotgun snap. That's something that he would have become at least passable by now if he was going to get it. I'd move him to guard. He's got the feet to be great there but he's as big of a liability as we have on offense at center. If they want to keep him there then move under center but that doesn't fit with what they are trying to do.
  6. Lol... now even the editor of the National Review is growing concerned about this s#!t show.
  7. Remember that model that came out at the start of this pandemic that showed 1 to 2 million deaths were possible if we did nothing? The one that the right blew off as fake science hyperbole? Well, we're on our way. Happy Holidays
  8. They're eating their own. No way a party cannot implode like this. The problem is whether it takes down our democracy with it. Are there any legit attorneys, scientists, military officers, intelligence officials, doctors, etc that still identify as Republicans?
  9. The quitters have infiltrated a recruit's thread now? You all can think it but what good does it do the program to actively state recruits should play elsewhere?
  10. You're in a thread discussing how you'd fix the problem. You've been pretty good at shooting down ideas so far. How about contributing and throwing out a few of your own?
  11. Can you post a photo of the Cyclones' trophy case please?
  12. Yeah I get it. This thing is so broken I don't know if anyone has the answers right now. But Frost came from that system. If anyone could at least incorporate elements of the I-bone it's him. I'm not so much getting hung up on scheme as I am saying figure out what it is you're going to do and master the basics first. It seems OCs out think themselves with scheme and thus out think their players. Frost knows it
  13. I think this is part of the problem and developing a niche to recruit to was the genius of Dr. Tom. With the challenges of recruiting to Nebraska to think we are going to go head to head doing the exact same thing as everyone else means we'll probably be middle of the road at best. No top program would recruit an Aaron Taylor now. That said, I think another part of the of the problem is everyone, from the administration to the fans, are getting ahead of themselves with goals. Sure it's great to want to play in the CC and playoffs but this team needs to master the basics of blocking, tackling, assignments, and execution first. This was another of TOs genius. It was about competing with yourself to perform the basics to perfection and with that the wins will follow.
  14. Well we're getting pretty good at this. New hire, hopes are high Two years in, hopes are crashed Then calling for the firing of the assistants. Next calling for the head coach's head. And soon looking for a new coach Then hopes are high again. Rinse/Repeat. I'm wondering if it's something psychological with trying to live up to the blue blood standards around the program. I'd be happy just to see some semblance of sound football. You gotta learn to walk before you run. Nobody has an answer right now. All I know is this is deja vu all over again.
  15. Yeah that was about as gruesome of an injury as it gets short of amputation
  16. Just pull a Solich and run it every damn down until they can stop it. Scott's got game. Do this, build oline confidence and move on.
