This thread is still going?????

Bingo. After his "i was always this good" answer, he paused and made a "oh crap" face. He has been shielded since he's been here, and it's his first time under the lights.

Yes, of course. Florida and Texas didn't win MNCs with a Zone read offense...

The short answer is no.

Worst nickname ever.

You're right. We now send the village idiots to Iowa.

I'm sorry, but you're just making stuff up. If Bo was the jackass that you portray, then why haven't we had massive transfers, and why the hell are kids coming to play here? Maybe because Bo's a little better with his players than you give him credit for? Boo frickin hoo... I've seen Bo chew a player out, and 2 plays later, give him a pat on the head and an arm over the shoulder.

Can we all do this, and drop the "T-Magic" name? It sounds really douchey....

I've seen this type of report a few different places as well. Maybe why Bo is playing things so close to the vest? Saturday can't get here fast enough... He can't name one position without naming them all. And since he has said he's not releasing a depth chart, it doesn't make sense to proclaim a starter at quarterback now. Oh, I agree that's why he hasn't released the depth chart either. At least last year, we had one pre-season (and in 2008 too). That's what leads me to believe it may be Martinez due to Bo's cloak and dagger operation. Paranoia, Paranoia, everybody's coming to get me......

I would bet my house it will be...

I nominate this for dumbest thread of the year...

Bo. Freaking. Pelini.

That's not entirely correct. I'm taking multiple sources, not one. Also, Taylor did play Scout QB as well as WR. When we were practicing for a Mobile QB, it was TM, not Kellogg, who was QB. I do know that he worked out at QB and WR last year. As for the other questions, I don't have all the answers. Who knows what goes through Bo and Wats' heads? This whole thing started when I pointed out that the myth of Martinez not being brought in to play QB was untrue, which I have proven. Then I got jumped on.

As a matter of fact, I don't. Sean Callahan was the one pimping the WR/DB line for Martinez the whole time, while Scout, HP, and a couple others said different. Also, if anyone actually took 5 seconds to read my points, it was that Martinez may have been listed as an "Athlete" but he most certainly was coming in as a QB first and foremost. HOWEVER, because of his unique skillset, they knew he could play somewhere else if QB didn't work.

That's so awesome...

was just coming to post this. pretty funny stuff. vindication, eh saunders? It's not about vindication, but the truth. So many people take what they hear at Huskers Illustrated as gospel, without checking around for 5 seconds. Many of the false rumors seem to originate on the forums there as well.

Even though my thread just got deleted (for whatever reason) I just wanted to point out something in today's press conference. When asked about Martinez, Bo said "We recruited Taylor as a Quarterback."

Or maybe don't make ridiculous arguments that are inherently wrong.

Soccer has a worldwide following. NASCAR does not. Please don't compare the two. 120% Correct. Actually NASCAR does have a worldwide following, so you would be 120% wrong. do a little research before you knock something you obviously haven't got a clue about. Just because you don't like/understand the sport doesn't mean you have reason to knock it. For arguments sake auto racing is WAY more popular worldwide than American football, not even a close competition. I am just as big of a Hukser fan as any one of you, but complaining about a time slot and knocking another popular sport isnt going to get anything done for you. The schedules are set YEARS in advance for races, contracts signed and so on and so on. They will not change it for a game!! get over it! As for people that like more than one sport and myself i will have a nice long day of watching Husker football and then the race. Cant wait Um, no. The rest of the world follows open wheel/formula 1 racing (Indy car) not Nascar. Also, turning left for 3 hours is not a sport.

Most boards clamp down on it, for good reason. I'm surprised it gets zero attention here.

Obviously I'm totally and completely in the wrong here. Afterall, if everyone else does it, that makes it right.

So, essentially, we are required by some misplaced sense of loyalty to travel to an art museum to view a painting and pay for admission rather than just google image it. Like I said..I'm all for people receiving credit for their work. I think ripping music is wrong, but that doesn't mean it's going to stop. A line exists between being trivial and being realistic. What you are saying is trivial and an overstated representation of how things should be. Last but not least, it was an article from a free website, and free websites subject themselves to the possibility of the very thing you are campaigning against. Is it right? No. So, at least we agree on something. I think it's time this thread got back on track before this commentary forces a mod to lock the thread. I love how people go to extreme examples to derail an argument. What you are saying is that basically, it's wrong, but you don't care. Good to know. I find it odd that it's frowned upon when someone posts "premium" info from a site, but copying an entire page from a site that isn't "premium" is no big deal. It's not necessarily this particular site that I care about, being seeing it happen over and over again is just plain wrong.

You're right. I'm obviously in the wrong here. Someone copying and pasting an entire article from a site verbatim is exactly the same as someone summarizing a story when telling another person. If someone asked me what Star Wars was about, telling them "it's about good vs evil in space" is identical to downloading bootlegged copies from the internet and burning copies for them. Exactly the same. i've been watching this debate, and it does seem trivial, bu ti think he was saying that it is more like if you get the paper delivered to your home, and you take that newspaper to work and a co-worker grabs it off of your desk and reads it, would you stop him/her and make him/her go out and buy his/her own to read? I understand what you are saying. But I also think that it's unfair to site creators/writers to not receive compensation for their work. I have dealt with these issues with my job numerous time, and having someone basically lift your work, without compensation is not cool at all. I find it extremely hypocritical for someone to say "I can't be bothered to click this link" due to convenience or whatever, when the article is over 3500 words... i do not think you are wrong. i do look at message boards as being tantamount to verbal conversations, but it is very gray and a policy of visiting the source site would probably be better/more fair/more ethical/etc., unless it is to an article written by chip brown, then i think we can all agree that only one person should be sent on that mission to retrieve it, and no one else should have to be subjected to the site. Amen to that!!! Your entire argument is pointless anyway because I DID post the link at the bottom in the original posts. If you didn't make it that far that's not my fault. It's not pointless at all. BFD if you post the link after posting the whole article. What's the point in posting a link if you copied the whole friggin' thing? I'm not dumb, even though you keep trying to say that. You obviously don't have respect for the work of others, so I'm not surprised.
