    Truth hurts most times.

     

    Not a smart play what so ever considering the opponent, the struggles of the team and the person returning the kick.

     

    it was nice to see the offense get out of that hole, but not a game you want to play against the Badgers

     

    and it’s the game thread, the greatest dumpster fire the board offers, so get over it

    Sniff

    Wow. It’s taken only one week for people to move into full fledged rationalization of what a poor season this has been. 


    and we haven’t even played Wisconsin or Iowa yet...

    So let's hear it. You're the A.D.  What's your plan?

    First, even though Frost identified Vedral and brought him to Lincoln, don’t you think he deserves play time when Martinez is clearly struggling. What does that tell you about Vedral if a struggling Martinez is still a better option according to Frost.

     

    Second, what have these high recruiting classes done thus far. Other than Wan’dale Robinson, who else has shown superior talent? We got beat by several teams with much lower recruiting classes this season. I know your response, we will be better next year once these recruits play, right? I guess we will see. We were also hoping for better results this season and it has not come to fruition.

     

    Finally, Ohio State has had excellent QBs that kept winning so there was no reason to go with Joe Burrow. It speaks to Ohio State’s ability to recruit superior talent. If Martinez was the same player As the one who ended the season last year, we would not be having this conversation. 

     

    Again, please understand that I am not calling for Frost’s head. I am just frustrated that he and his coaches seem so lost as to how to fix this mess. Blaming the players is not the right thing to do. He is the head coach and instead of blaming the players, why doesn’t he sit out players who have not bought in and play the ones who have bought in. I would take an average player who plays his heart out for the team than a four star recruit who is not invested in this team’s success. It is not as if the state of Nebraska is not paying Frost very handsomely. When are we going to see results!? It is a simple question.

    What a rambling mess of a take.  You first trash the players, then say "blaming the players isn't the right thing to do", then finish by trashing the players...lol.

    What Frost said about Joe Burrow and I quote: "You think he's better than what we got?" gives me great concern if it is truly what he said. It shows that he can’t distinguish real talent when he sees it. If Urban Meyer and Ohio state recruited him, he must be good. When was the last time Ohio state had a bad QB? If Frost and his coaches can’t identify talent, no wonder we are where we are. Think of Jurgens, he did not turn out good. How many others are not that good? 

    Wait... you're writing Jurgens off???  As a freshman??

    $35 million.  We get him for seven years.  

     

    Another article by Simple Sipple wanders around the old "needs more time" mantra we've been hearing for twenty years now.  Nothing about the defense, of course, just Frost whining about not sleeping and Sipple comparing him to great coaches in basketball and football who've had a few downs with their ups.  Helpful hint to Sipple:  One good year at UCF doth not a great coach make.

    Waaaaaaaaa!!!  I need my banky!!!

    Quitters wouldn't be on a message board on a sat night.  It has been an objectively terrible year for husker football.  It's ok to be realistic but still hopeful.  It's not ok to enable poor play by saying everything is alright. 

    Not sure where anyone said everything was alright.

    Just curious on who, we as fans on a message board, are supposed to be helping

    Do you know how any of this is going to turn out in the long run?  So the question stands, how is any of this "we're all gonna die!!!!!" quitters mentality going to make matters better?  I don't have a problem with reasoned debate about the state of Huskerland but saying 0% chance of winning is just false and not productive.
