hey guys what's up?

Despite how numb I am about the entire situation, it still shocks me that anyone thinks MR will become a consistent winner. At what point does history finally predict the future for some people? Next year we can hope to be .500.

plus 1 for you, sir.

 

Why taylor at RB? What has he done? What about Cross?

Cross not here next year, homie.

 

OH SHI-!

as far as i'm concerned, continuing to use the 'Surrender Whites' on the road is a firing offense.

Agreed. The Surrender Whites suck. All-white uniforms make the players look like a bunch of tampons on the field.

Riley said so on the radio tonight. He had no idea that the scarlet are our traditional road pants.

 

hey, guys, it's me. been a while.

anyhow, i'm the one who called in question. and yeah, i was FLOORED when he said 'no-one' told him about that about our road uniforms.

really? NO-ONE at the university made mention of the fact that since before the time of Devaney, nebraska has red road pants?

He then started to go on about how, well, equipment manager and others make the call yada-yada and then trailed off.

does anyone here actually believe he doesn't have any input on this issue?

i can believe this happening: whoever is maintaining equipment decided that it would be easier and cheaper just to stick white pants. riley probably just shrugged and said, "yeah, sure whatever" and went back to devising ways to wreck the program.

so yeah, i can see why nebraska wears white on the road and the cost benefit by making the switch. and if this is the case, it's ironic.

after all, riley did take the job because he'd have access to R E S O U R C E S. you'd think of them would have been the proper travel pants.

hey guys what's going on?

when i have problems with my bowel movements, i use the thundercats battle cry...

okay, front and center: i'm a bo supporter and don't think he should be fired. then again, i never thought solich should have been fired but whatevs.

bohl coached back-to-back FCS teams at NDSU and the Bison are #1 seed this year. whatever his issues were as a coach when he was run out of town in 2k2, he's become a way better at his trade over the last decade.

and he's done it with Nebraska-born players. he's made no secret of the fact that he poaches the state left, right and center. in fact, if calvin strong isn't picked-up by nebraska, i fully expect NDSU to make a play for him.

you could do worse than bohl.

of course, NDSU isn't without its baggage. make of that what you will.

if pelini is gone, get rid of him now. start healing the program now. if he's not gone, then freaking say so, move on and let him focus on next year.

giving pelini "enough rope so he can hang himself" is bs. sh*t or get off the pot. it's that simple.

Everyone needs to own up and look at their involvement in this entire debacle. Don't get me wrong, I am not totally defending Bo but these situations are never one sided.

 

Media - Doing our job is flat out an excuse. Our entire journalistic media in this country is crap. They are paid for a bunch of opinions and make more money from stirring the pot. The media will feed the fans. If the fans only see negativity from the program, regardless of 9/10 things are positive, they will be negative to the program. The media is absolutely part of this mess and "doing our job" is crap.

 

Fans - Irregardless if you are behind Bo staying or being fired be honest. If you got beat up that badly at work by your "boss" would you be happy there? If "fans", or the media are going to always skew things to their benefit, you have no hope of improving your work environment. You would be out searching for a new job and I don't blame Bo for seemingly wanting to leave. Should he handle it better, sure. At some point I don't care who you are, you would have similar reactions. Anyone that says they won't is lying. Our world is entirely to hypocritical and we can rarely handle those that aren't, we call them out and force them to be the same.

 

Players - Should our opinion matter more then theirs regarding Bo or the media. That's a big fat no. His players would take a bullet for the man. Why do we marginalize that? If your opinion of someone you cared about was marginalized to that, extent how would you feel about that other person. Fans and the media are absolutely creating the us against them mentality. Those boys played their rear ends off in major pain, severely depleted by injuries, and what do we give them We give them nothing except try harder, your not good enough, your coach sucks. If you and your family feel that attacked by others your leader doesn't have to brainwash you, those you feel attacked by naturally become our enemies. Again put yourself in their shoes and tell me you wouldn't feel the same.

 

Bo - Come on man. There are ways to handle your frustrations and anger without looking like a 5 year old. I do not blame him in anyway for his feelings or even showing his frustrations. He should know that he is in a fishbowl to begin with and have only made it worse. It started your first few years before he actually began working to control his emotions/communications. Obviously it is not a talent of his. If you were Bo and you saw your efforts going nowhere you lose your patience to continue those efforts. What do you get? You get today's outburst when all of your frustrations from the media and fans overflow. I greatly appreciate his honesty, but there are better ways to communicate.

 

I would argue that much of this still stems from poor and inconsistent leadership within the athletic department for years. Tom helped but didn't have enough time to truly make the changes stick, plus you still have Pearlman. We have passed the point that Bo can succeed here but in the future we need leadership needs to mentors the coaches in all aspects. That leadership needs to market and manage fans expectations and knowledge of the programs.

 

Don't kid yourself about that finding a new quality will be easy. The grass is rarely greener. On top of leadership issues, which Wisconsin doesn't have and makes it attractive, we are NOT a top 10 coaching destination. Many schools throw money at football, have ridiculous facilities, academics, strength and conditioning, and anything else you want to add to the list. We have 1 thing many other schools don't, only 1, and that is tradition. Tell me what does tradition get you anymore.

 

Irregardless isn't a word.

*this* is how you troll, y'all.

jordan westerkamp's porn stache is giving an interview.

MOTHERFREAKING CRAZIES MUTHERFREAKIN END EVAH!!!!!

this game is bananamas!

HOLY NUTMUFFIN!

and that's the game kids.

this game is way more exciting than it needs to be.

i will say this: the game does not suck as much as i thought it would at this point.

 

tommy armstrong and jordan westerkamp are going to be the team supreme going into the future.

 

Well, thank goodness for low standards.

WTF is low about the standards of those two players?

 

im guessing he is commenting on the fact that he thinks the game doesn't suck as much as he thought it would...has nothing to do with the two players.

offensively, nebraska has bright future: armstrong, westerkamp, newby and cross... i like what we got.

and i'm not willing to write off the D either. they'll figure it out... eventually.

SACK!

i will say this: the game does not suck as much as i thought it would at this point.

tommy armstrong and jordan westerkamp are going to be the team supreme going into the future.

Great throw by Armstrong, but very risky. That's two risky throws today.

that a freshman decision.

dunno about that.

husker down.

the red shirt freshman quarter back is gonna have to bail us out.

be the man, tommy!

burned with the option. nice.

swear to freakin' god.
