  1. College Football Live on ESPN has Turner Gill and Skip Holtz (Lou's son) as candidates for the Kansas opening.

     

    Personally, I'd love to see Gill running our offensive coordinator and help in recruiting the kind of talent at QB and WR we'd like. I also like the "tie" to the past.

     

    I know there will be posts as to how and why this can't/won't happen.

  2. Carter and Gabbert both seemed to be high on Watson......I take their recent decommits as signs that Watson will be gone after the season

    This is a possibility, but why would Watson give them that impression? I don't believe he would. Plus Gilmore was the one who met with Curtis, not Watson and I don't think Gilmore would let on that Watson is out after the season. Unless Gilmore is also out too. While I can see this as a possibility I think it is less likely.

  3. Here's why I think we have the coaches telling these guys,"If you aren't solid then we are going to look in a different direction."

     

    We have a limited number of scholarships this year, that is known. Maybe there are more players interested in coming to Nebraska than we have spots open, so the coaches made an executive decision to tell these recruits, "either you're in or you're out" so they aren't holding a committment but aren't solid. Therefore these committments aren't being wasted without the player wavering. Maybe after this last weekend a few more D recruits have become more interested and they need to make room.

  4. A few things I noticed from the stiffarmtrophy.com rankings....

     

    They say Johnny Rodgers put Suh at 3 even though the link they provide says he has him on his ballot but would not reveal any of his places.

     

    I have a feeling this happens with several others, since there are many who have only one place listed for a player.

     

    Dan Patrick's vote is not listed and neither is Tim Griffin's. Patrick had a poll on his site for his vote and Suh was a landslide. Griffin would also have Suh for sure on his ballot.

     

    Mark Schlabach also does not have his ballot listed and he said on Jim Rome he had Suh #1.

     

    Just some quick observations....

  5. All I know for sure is previous winners get a vote, I don't know about getting invited.

     

     

    They are invited to attend the ceremony // be in the background behind the players, if he isn't high enough on ballots to be in the top 3-5, he will be at the ceremony.. just sitting in the background with the other previous winners who choose to attend.

    He'll probably be crying in the background....

  6. Alcohol will be served in club sections only. Per Big 12 rules, the rest of the stadium will be dry. You can thank Texas/CU fans for that

     

    I think you can thank T.O. and other Big 12 member AD's and reps who are against alcohol. T.O. has come out against it before.

  7. I don't think we should be writing off K-state with Bill Snyder as their Head coach.......Sure it will be an emotional night for Nebraska but there is a lot at stake for KSU as well.....Plus they do have a good running game with a big back and we saw last week against a supposed weak O-line that Nebraska can be run on. The run D this year is statistically worse than the pass.

     

    I just don't think we should be discounting them much. Same goes for Colorado next week......I guess that is my attitude before everygame though. I am always nervous no matter who Nebraska plays because sh*t can happen (see ISU)....

     

    Just my thoughts....

  8. Wow yeah he has an offer. That is ridiculous I am certain he got an offer just because of his daddy. I am not liking some of these offers the coaches are handing out. Does this mean that barney offered and recruited his own son??? If so....WOW!!! I do not like this.

    Carl Pelini is listed as his recruiter. Sounds like we are stuck with Cotton at OL coach because we have his sons here...

  9. Is it fair to Cody to be asked to play an away Big 12 game and to start with a whole new batch of new recievers who are young and getting a first start? To me this a recipe for West Coast offense disaster and a Waco meltdown! :dunno:blink::madash ?

    You could look at it this way.... Green has been working with these second team receivers more in practice with the 2nd team offense. So if he and a couple of these guys start they would be on the same page more than he would with Holt and the others who are not starting.

  10. I was at the game. There was no booing at all. Period. Just groans and disbelief....But there was absolutely no booing and the reporters who have written about in the LJS and OWH have noted there was no booing.

  11. Planning on leaving around 7:45 - 8. Just wanted to make sure we get there and have time to tailgate a for an hour. But I haven't been there on game day this year so I was just wondering what the construction situation is. And if any wise and sage-like veterans have any alternate route or know the recent travel time to games this year. Thanks for your input.
