  1. What did Frost see on tape that said we should exploit the edges? Seems like it's been 2nd and 16 all day
  2. And all along there was a DT at Lincoln SE who excelled in the classroom, but "didn't fit" our scheme......
  3. I think Chip going to Florida can only help Frost's decision to leave UCF. It's going to be quite a bit tougher to recruit the state of Florida when the state school has your former boss, who will be running a similar offense with similar skill players. I know UCF doesn't directly compete with Florida, but I do think this does poke a hole in Dirky's "build a national power" at UCF theory.
  4. Let's get to 777 pages and then lock it up....Frost couldn't say no to that kind of karma!
  5. Do think there's any correlation between owning a Prius and having the softest o-line in the Big Ten?

  8. Dan Mullen (Mississippi State) or Gary Patterson (if we hire TCU's AD)
  9. Keep in mind last season we started Howell/King/Engelken as our opening weekend starters, so a lot can change by the time conference play begins. It takes time for everyone's roles to be defined within the rotation/bullpen.
  10. Couple things to help you feel better: 1. Meyers isn't pitching until Sunday so that he can play CF in the first 3 games. Can't have him in the outfield throwing right after he has pitched. 2. The forecast is calling for rain Saturday, so Erstad lined up his top 2 remaining starting pitchers (knowing Burkamper can't start/Meyers pitches Sunday) for tomorrow's double-header. IF they play game 3 on Saturday, I'm sure we're going to see Johnny All-Staff eat up those innings. Miller is just the first reliever who will start the game on the mound.
  11. Gotta perform on the field AND in the classroom.
  12. This pretty much confirms who our suspended starter is....
  13. Nick Gregath (ESPN 1480 2:00-4:00) does a really good job here in Lincoln. He's much more knowledgeable and level-headed compared to the 93.7 gang. Severe has been pretty good lately, especially when Joe Ganz has been co-hosting.
  14. As much as it pains me to say, they were right. Callahan's recruiting was stellar. That's my point. Yes, Callahan was a good recruiter, but that didn't translate into a successful coaching career in Lincoln. I hope to God Riley fares much better!
  15. Didn't recruiting analysts gush over Bill Callahan's hiring, too?
  16. Let's connect the dots..... So, we have a former sports media person (inside N connections?), who now works for a casino (relays info to Vegas sportsbook of his employer's parent company), which has now taken down prop bet, after listing Frost as a heavy favorite = JACKPOT!!!! Tressel HC, Frost OC and we are all so happy with this that we don't mind losing our prop bets!!! God, I love this!!!!
  17. I'm leaning toward Mullen now. IF the announcement is expected within next 36 hours, then that eliminates Frost. No freaking way Frost is announced prior to the Pac 12 Championship game. He wouldn't do that to his players at Oregon.
  18. I've only met Eichorst once, but I fully back the media's assessment that SE is a measured and calculated person. He comes across as someone who thinks five steps ahead of present moment. It would not surprise me one bit that SE has done a complete evaluation of the football program, starting at the end of the Iowa game last year. And, along with that evaluation, he has concluded whom he thinks is the right person to take Nebraska to the next level, while also curing the dysfuction that has plagued the football program. Who knows which coach he picked, and if that pick will be successful, but there is no doubt in my mind that he has had his mind made up for quite some time. I know alot of us are still scarred from the Pedersen/Callahan hiring debacle. Give this guy a chance, and appreciate that he wants Nebraska to be great again. There is no Plan B to worry about, because Plan A is a done deal.
  19. Well said, and I think this example is only the tip of the iceberg. The football program is/was one dysfunctional family.
  20. I've done the math, and I conclude that Mullen is coming to Nebraska, and Tressel is taking over at Mississippi State. Why else would he be ringing a bell today?!
