  1. They should discuss the mouth guard inserted on top the helmet. Because it is sooo Fetch.
  2. Combine reminds me of the early 2000's Crossfit. Super great at exercising and moving fast. And with NFL Measurables, GM's are getting wood with their cocktails at happy hour.
  3. Edmonton Oilers 74 points 35-21-4 and on the heels of the Begas Golden Knights for 1st place in the Pacific And that includes 6 losses and a tie in their last 10 games. Which is how the Oilers play in the playoffs. Maybe they will skate like the 80's and become champions. Or not.
  4. See above homie
  5. Won't you come... And wash away the Rain That's My Soul up there....
  6. @huskerfan92 Bruh, I gave yall the benefit of doubt, but you were way off. Just because Neb has a position with a GM title - you apparently didn't understand what a General Manager means in football. Husker GM Padden was a scout team manager guy that managed and prepped the assistant coaches with scout team players and their development. He was also expected to engage with the newbie/younger guys. That is not what I or many people think of when you hear "Football General Manager". But, Padden was given a General Manager tag title as the Huskers GM. So let's compare what NU'sGeneral Manager was doing, with Andrew Luck's responsibilities as a Football General Manager with Stanford. Which is what I was original excited about. Now Compare.... GM Andrew Luck' role and responsibility: Adopt a professional sports model. Husker's GM / Padden? Nope. Navigate the complexities of NIL deals plus player development. Husker's GM / Padden? Nope Manage the coaching staff (that includes HC). Husker's GM / Padden? Nope. Roster management - Manage player personnel and roster. Husker's GM / Padden? Nope. Recruiting - Oversee player evaluation and recruiting strategies. Husker's GM / Padden? Nope. Alumni relations - Build relationships with boosters and Alumni. Husker's GM / Padden? Nope. Fundraising - Help increase attendance and secure sponsorships. Husker's GM / Padden? Nope. Stadium experience - Oversee the in-stadium experience. Husker's GM / Padden? Nope. Husker GM Padden on his roles - "Whenever there's sort of something new, Rhule kind of throws me at it and says, 'Alright, figure this out,'".... β€œIt's really just a fun way to stay on top of the young guys,” Padden said. β€œI grade every one of their days so that I get a sense of how they're developing, how they're coming along. And it also allows me to engage the younger players on the team with regard to their development. Sometimes guys end up on scout team and feel like they're lost. Well, I lived on scout team for three seasons of college football, and so I know what it's like.” - GM Padden No offense, but I just don't think you understand what hiring a GM means in today's college football environment and the responsibilities that comes with the title. And that is what I alluded to from the beginning. Maybe this new Husker GM will have more of a real GM responsibility? If not, then just forget everything and let's create a lesser titile. By the way, Padden is still on staff and was move to a different position/role. He was also a guy from Rhule's past during the Temple days.
  7. I think Omaha is nearly a lock with a guarenteed shared title RN. Would love to see the Huskers and lil Omaha make it. Just glad that if the Huskers Du, they won't have to play the #1 seed like Omaha. And that's crazy when your goal is to make it to the playoffs... you achieve it..... Now go play Auburn, Duke, Alabama or Florida in Round 1.
  8. Loved your take. I don't think Husker Nation really wants Hoiberg fired. But it is okay to blow off steam and call him an idiot - especially losing by 17 to Penn State - a team that lost 12 of their last 13 games going into it. That just should not have happened. At least be competitive and make it a 2 possession game. Sheesh. I think his seat should be warm - not hot. But also, it's his s#!tty offense that he runs. Dribble down the clock, try to get it to Brice who's always covered, and hope Gary can help out taking it to the paint. Result - "if they both make buckets, we win!" It's awful lol. Keep Hoiberg. Just change the offense playbook.
  9. That's a good point about the Athletic department. I would assume it's because to pay for better players it's nearly a "one-and-done" investment on those great players. And then repeat each year becoming costly. I know they got size with Meah, Morgan and Berke. But you are right again, because the skill is average-to-good (morgan & berke). Subpar for Meah. And yes he's had a few good games. Offense still sucks. There is no ball movement. No consistent shooters outside. And the transition game is pretty weak. Plus the offense chews up a lot of clock and allows defenses to get settled.
  10. This is hilarious and awesome! I am really happy for Omaha. And will be rooting for them. Tournament bound. Will likely get to play a #1 seed for making it to the dance lol. It'sooo not fair.
  11. Yeah it was mostly tongue-in-cheek LOL. Actually I have been pretty impressed with Auburn & Alabama, Florida & Tennessee. Together they are 93-15. That makes me think that 2 SEC teams will make the Elite 8.
  12. March Madness about to start soon Which of these SEC teams are going to lay a turd in the Tournament ?! Auburn, Alabama, Florida, Tenn, Missouri, A&M, Kentucky, Ole Miss, Miss State, Vanderbilt, Arkansas, Georgia... or all of them. We already know the B1G always stinks in the tournament (sadly) because, no B1G officials calling their games.
  13. The bats are always behind when the season starts. And sometimes it might be confidence or bad weather and always playing on the road a few weeks to start the year. It's been the same thing ever since Bolt became the Manager (Coach/Skipper). Even though I give a slight pass with starting out on the road a lot every year, Bolt's offense is pretty s#!tty year in and year out. And relies on upperclassmen. I am just hoping he figures it out. Because his offense makes hitting a baseball seem impossible with aluminum bats and 3 star schollie players. It's difficult, but sheesh it's not that hard. I mean, runners in scoring position, put a swing on it and put it in play. Day 1 stuff.
  14. I had planed on being there for a long time. But I sprained my ankle last weekend. High ankle sprain. Very painful. Can't move without a crutch. Sucks because I had been looking forward to seeing NU in person.
