Looking at the film on Shapen. More fluid and technically sound than what we have. Accuracy and touch look good. Doesn’t show great arm strength or velocity. Some running ability. Has a lot of time in pocket and receivers running free. Would he have that here? Would like to know more about his ball security, decisions under pressure, and roll out busted plays proficiency. He’s better than what we have so definitely interested. Baylor OC Grimes was let go. We can find a role for him here. I sort of liked what Grimes did with the Baylor offense.

So why is Howard leaving KSU? He’s been a good QB fit for them.

The call out for Cam Ward earlier in the thread caught my attention. Wazzou is in a weird no man’s land. The kid is talented enough to play P5 at a high level. If he goes in the portal he would be high on my list.

Interesting. OC Grimes was on the rise a few years ago. TX connections and knows OL.

Yep there is a lot of stuff that I and many other fans have seen for years. We need accountability, development, identity. And I’ll call out our NIL. It should be one of the best in CFB and I haven’t seen squat.

Jerkeyes c’mon!

Ball broke plane in control. How many times do you see them hit nose of ball on pylon and lose control and it’s a TD. Easy call.

Yep I’m sick and tired of both programs. Michigan can beat OSU. I don’t think McCord is the dynamic QB OSU has had in past. I would love to then see Oregon or Washington beat Michigan in the playoff with Harbaugh back. The new teams coming in to the conference can then say what’s the big deal, haha.

TE coach.

Get Paul Chryst for co-OC and QB. Improve the offense and stick it to Wisconsin as well. Lots to like.

Agree. I don’t see any coaches like this either. Rhule is fine as the sober voice at the top but I see no coaches getting after it. It’s the same crap week in, week out.

We agree on a lot and I could have written a lot of what you did. I have brought up Paul Chryst. If you want to keep Satt give Chryst QB coaching duties and you at least have another credible voice on the offensive side of the ball. I am a firm believer not one skill player is going to save this offense. We have seen that trick at places like Purdue and Indiana and it never goes far. It has to start with the OL and the reason I have wanted Raiola out is because I don’t see our OL control games we should win easily. Every game is a struggle. Our RB’s never get going, our QB’s are not well protected. I thought the RB’s with all the injuries made the best of it. Our WRs are young so jury still out. But this OL scares no one. OK we improved in penalty yards? How could you not improve from such a hole? Who did we push around? Who did we wear down in the second half? It should have been teams like MSU, Maryland, Minny. 7-8 wins was very achievable and so that is why there should be consequences. The staff is not cutting it on the offensive side. Need players and coaching both. We agree on a lot and I could have written a lot of what you did. I have brought up Paul Chryst.

When I look at the various things we can do, I wouldn’t mind starting over on offense entirely. We need superior coaches for OC, OL, QB, WR, TE…it just goes on an on. But who is that hire and what others can he bring with him? Do you look at Peetz again?

I miss Pelini’s passion but when it started going bad he just couldn’t be the spokesperson for Nebraska. Rhule is a good spokesperson and has some passion. But I have yet to see it in the other coaches. Where is my dawg recruiter or my motivator position coach? I don’t see it, especially on offense. I want coaches that coach toughness physically and mentally.

Agree with a lot of this. I expected the coaching to be better and get us some close wins. What made it more disappointing was the teams we faced were not as good as I thought they would be and we still lost. The defense was the brighter spot and you can see they have improved. The offense needs wholesale changes both with coaches and players. We need a road grader OL coach and players that create an offensive identity and make sure the games we are to win are never in doubt. If we don’t have an OL we can lean on and wear other teams down we will continue to struggle with the game on the line with shaky kicker leg and shaky QB arm.

We all have had the same lesson for years now. Screw what did learn. How about what needs to happen. This whole way of losing again sucks but it brings complete clarity to the situation. This has to be rock bottom. I’m not saying it is rock bottom but it has to be for the coaches and players moving forward. We must demand accountability and thus we have to make big changes. This was an easy schedule and we pissed several games down our leg. We won’t even have a chance in future to urinate on ourselves to lose the game because Oregon and USC will be up by 24 in the third qtr. Use NIL. Get a stud QB, Tackle, and Punt Returner thru NIL. Pull a Deion on offense. If you’re not good then be shown the door. No coach or position is safe. I’d let Raiola go, the OL was not in sync and continues to be a liability. I’d target a OL coach that can be a pass/run game coordinator to be in sync with the OC, if you keep Satt. Get a kicker. Get a stud edge rusher. #25 in recruiting is not going to cut it. Must do better. Playing time is now for most positions.

I hear you. Frost left us nothing but there!s a portal, there’s NIL. IMO our NIL has been a failure.

I watch a lot of college football. We are terrible. The defense is alright but the offense could be the worst in power 5. If Rhule can’t see this we are in huge trouble. The PC talk is we are getting better but the schedule only gets worse. If we do not get some difference makers on both sides of the ball we are done. Why we can’t make FGs or return a punt is inexcusable. Pay me and I could get better results.

I actually think Nebraska nice needs to go. Sure we need good sportsmanship but it has morphed into this soft mentality and playing for participation .500 seasons. I live in So Cal and there are real dudes playing HS football. None of them even know what a Nebraska is.

I’m tired of the s#!t accountability, lots of coaches are axed the day after a couple losses like this. We have 5 inexcusable losses. Rhule is safe but he has to flip this roster and coaching staff. DO NOT be fooled by 5 wins ahead of schedule talk. We all saw the games. We flat out suck. All the teams coming from the PAC 12 will absolutely murder us. This better be rock bottom.

Gotta flip a lot of the roster and get better coaches. This is rock bottom and better wake Rhule the hell up. He better demand accountability and if he doesn’t he’ll be gone in year 3. This is it boys. I would have liked to bowl. But clarity could not be clearly. We had a soft schedule and played like s#!t the entire year. Iowa has a losing record in most other power 5 conferences.

You know what, get this s#!t out of here. Our players had a lot of chances and we dropped the ball and missed the kicks and threw the INT and gave up the big run. I don’t think Satt is great but s#!t these players deserve some criticism. We are soft and play poorly in key situations.

I’m pissed. Refs clock players coaches. It is all bad!
