Set your clock to it.  Bet your retirement on it. 

yawn, same s#!t, different day. rinse, repeat.

it sure looks bad the way they cut Moos loose so suddenly. I suspect Ronnie Green is driving the bus and Frost could be getting off at the next planned/unplanned stop.?

doesn't appear to be much stability left here now. This is obviously not good.

I like the aggressiveness. I think he will be able to harness it in a college game, most of what he was doing was peacocking to the coaches in the stands letting them know he is physical. Its not like he doesn't know or has not heard that, that style of play can get penalties. I mean ohia state wouldn't have wasted a ship  on the guy if they thought otherwise.  Alfonzo Dennard style, will he get a penalty or two yep,  will he break up a  pass or get a pick 6  most defiantly, juice is worth the squeeze in this one.  

he has been beaten out by a bunch of NFL bound kids at Ohio State, so he had to move on. we will be happy to take their left overs.

Curious if we would take McCaffrey back, if he can't find a home.

doubtful.

all of this poaching seems bad for everyone involved.

look at Georgia, looks like A&M may have raided some of their kids?

Or, he sticks it out here and is developed into a good WR. 

boy, this is not good for Luke. Are there just too many kids who don't want to work for a starting job?

seems that way?

agree and the sad thing is we don't hear much about the special teams play and progress?

i am really worried that this facet of our game is still being ignored. Hope i am wrong, it is such a big deal for us.

Chin seems to be a bright spot now.

With the RBs, it's like we've got plenty of guys with potential, but the question is who can stay healthy? Remember that Yant is pretty much the only guy who was healthy all through spring. Hard not to like him, especially considering that we got him as a walk-on, but he's probably not gonna be an every down kind of back.

 

I'm thinking this fall is probably gonna be RB by committee, where we're just plugging in whoever is healthy at the time. Can we find consistency that way?

Martinez missed some easy throws, 12-20 is nothing to brag about. Smothers holds the ball too long and is indecisive. QB is going to be average at best.

Manning snd Betts dropped too many balls as well. RB by committee looks like the plan, with Yant getting at least 12 carries per game.

a lot of home town boys getting on this years roster, new trend?

.500 ball looks about right, stuttering defense and sporadic offense, just the reality after seeing what was showcased, hope i am wrong. Boring, except for last 2 plays.

i though strength and conditioning was supposed to fortify our guys to less injuries?  seems hopeless we have so many guys who can't get through a whole game or practice without getting hurt. everyone ends "nicked up" and then they are out for half the season or more. are we recruiting the wrong body types?  at least it appears so.

and look at Stepp, he gets off the plane in Lincoln and is immediately pronounced injured!  and we didn't know that?  he didn't know that?  right. we are desperate.

i was really disappointed to hear the comments on the performance of the offense. after all the hype and news, it still appears frost cannot get out of his own damn way!

what's it going to take? we hear the same old s#!t, "we're gonna get this fixed". "it's a culture issue". time is running out again, these guys on the O should be breathing fire, i don't even see smoke. it sure looks like playing .500 ball would be a miracle in accomplishment.  yeah, it was just one organized practice, it's early, the D is always ahead at this time of year, blah, blah, blah. really??  we have a coaching problem, just my thoughts. where is the progress and consistency?

good point, i mean no one else plays hurt, right?

why don't we just have a recurring draft every 60-90 days?  pretty much the same thing.  this is insane.

There would be a big net gain heading into this season if Robinson hadn't left.

 

I can see the glass as half full by bringing in Toure. But I'm still not exactly seeing a WR room that has the right combination of talent and experience that leaves me believing we'll be all that much better when it counts down the stretch in B1G play at the position.

agree, way short on experience, going to have to learn as they go

Army, Navy and the Air Force still run the flex-bone/triple option.  Georgia Tech was running it recently as well.  I still feel in the end superior athletes (both mentally and physically) and coaching is what ultimately wins football games no matter what type of scheme you're trying to run.

and the good teams make great in game adjustments, something our coaches don't do very well.

whatever he has done, eliminating the turnovers is critical. and Frost needs to reduce his carries, i think we all agree.

throwing the ball away and avoiding the sacs.

anyone know what is wrong with Manning?  has been a huge disappointment.  sorry if this is covered somewhere else.

all i want to know is if Jurgens has learned how to snap the ball!!

I think you've got it bass ackwards: we need great WRs to let our QBs shine. We might be throwing out WR offers like they're candy, but the fact is, Frost's only WR recruit that's amounted to anything (so far) is gone now. I'm still firmly in the camp that says we could've had Joe Burrow and wouldn't have fared a whole lot better with this supporting cast around the QB the last couple years.

let's face it, a lot of what Frost is doing is not working in the Big 10.

I think it's more fair to say that Nebraksa has recruited 2 non projects and 2 projects. AM wasn't a project QB and neither was Smothers. He had legitimate interest from across the country, but committed to Frost and shut down his recruitment. McCaffrey was a project at QB, but after taking AM the year before it was likely to go that way and he was great player. Haarberg is a project QB, but when he committed we had three 4 stars on the roster at QB so it was likely to be a project year anyhow.

i think clearly we have some coaching deficiencies. good teams overcome a few penalties and some minor injuries, we don't do this.

someone out west I'ld bet

yup. we have little chance.

yes, our offense sucks. Frost unwilling to change things up, IMHO.

someone will snag him

i am just hoping we get a decent 1-2 set of running backs with some speed, all these guys and we basically ran Mills last season most of the time, disappointing.

and we already hear Stepp will be the man, damn, all these other guys are beaten out before they get here? that's s true condemnation of our recruiting process.

a real problem for Frost.
