  1. LINK i borrowed that from the 50 best countdown thread. not having to replace any of the defensive coaches seems to be an overlooked component in the defense being stronger. with another year of experience with bo's defense the first year coaches we had last year should be able to teach the concept better and they have a better idea of the players' abilities .
  2. to add on, the university is the largest employer in lincoln before you add in all the subcontractors they employ for various projects. and they always have something going on. as for the complainers moving to GI, dear lord who would want to do that? (i can knock GI cause i grew up in hastings)
  3. erm, he lives in papillion and is a legacy. See bold. Reading the entire post is an important part of a message board. My point was a generalization as indicated by the quote but used Kenzo as an example in the generalized situation since this is his thread. Anyways, just keep trying to read every word in the post, and you will get there! I took it the same way as desertshox. Since Kenzo doesn't fit the generalization as an example, either your generalization or example make no sense. Before telling us to read every word, maybe you should consider what you're typing. Considering how all the words fit together to convey meaning is an important part of writing. Ok, well then I question your reading comprehension. I said "if KC was not from nebraska." then "out of state kids." then "kids" (twice; as in more than one, referring to a general example). then "they" twice. All of which refer to a generalized example that was opened up with a hypothetical situation involving kenzo cotton's name. you can take it however you want, but according to the diction, if you interpret it the incorrect way, that is your problem, not my word choice. If I kept saying "him," "kid," "he," that would be my bad, but this case is not. Anyways, I don't really care. It's fine if you misinterpreted what I wrote to all. What do you think about the comment "Oregon is currently a stronger program than NU". agree, disagree, why? you do realize that i was merely pointing out that you were using the son of a former nebraska football player to point out common knowledge?

  5. While I wouldn't go so far as to suggest someone in the admissions office has conflicting loyalties, it would not surprise me IN THE LEAST to find substantial levels of incompetence. A buddy of mine who is pretty connected to the program asserted today that the potential fault with Webster's eligibility stems not so much with the NCAA, but with Nebraska's admission office. He compared it quite openly to the Roburt Sallie fiasco, and flatly stated that if Webster is not eligible by the time school starts..."Heads will roll". Take it for what it's worth, since I have no idea, but in fairness, this buddy has been pretty spot on with most of his insights to me on Husker basketball. Heads should roll, it's f'ing ridiculous all i am seeing is he isnt certified by the ncaa. how exactly is that unl's admissions fault?
  6. did they not keep individual fumble stats back then? or did you go back and give crouch credit for the bad pitches he'd make that the rb would get credit for the fumble? and if they didnt keep individual fumble stats, your second comment is moot.
  7. I thought it was today, but just cruised past Devaney and saw no discernible signs of a parade....... creepy
  8. who is now a loser. (well that sounded a helluva lot meaner that i meant it to.)
  9. yes, but the concept of 9 wins is slightly dated - and the way in which the 4 losses that accompany those wins is what is going against Pelini. 25 or so teams had 10 or more wins, another 10 or so with 9. Even Vanderbilt in the SEC can find 9 wins, or a rebuilding UCLA team. Is that the standard? A top 35ish or so team? Because 9 wins will barely get you into the top 25 now. 25 years ago 9 wins was almost a guaranteed top 10 finish. i understand reading comprehension is optional on a message board. i am not arguing a standard or a goal. i am stating that things have to get worse before something drastic can be done. firing a coach that has been producing 9-10 win seasons is pretty much going to limit your options for a replacement. we saw that with what happened replacing solich.
  10. It considers what you think Nebraska is? Are we a top program that should be competing with other top programs? He gets paid millions of dollars every year. He has to eventually start performing. I would say Bo needs to have 1 of 3 things done soon. 1.top 10 finish. 2. conference championship win. 3. bcs bowl appearance. Not to be a smartass because lord knows we have a few guys here at Huskerboard that keep the smartass thing covered X10 for all of us. But I would say at this point your statement is almost a captain obvious thing by now and not even worth debating. In other words, I agree with you, but I don't know anyone that isn't an absolute PPP that doesn't agree. well there are still some on here that goal is still too lofty. i dont think it is they feel that goal is too lofty, they just understand the asininity of firing a coach that is producing 9-10 wins a year. you'd think that after seeing what nebraska got after firing their last coach who won 9 games in season, people would be more hesitant about clamoring for a new coach.
  11. where did you find that article from july 10, 2003?
  12. Jack Fordon -- 67 isnt he a linebacker?
  13. different offenses. beck probably could have found a place for him on offense. beck's offense seems to have a little more "playground" in it that allows him to use whoever he wants wherever he wants.
  14. at least he put more info into this thread than just his typical "editing".
