  1. True, but Tressel would fight it because it could potentially mean millions to him, and of course that would go to court and get public and ugly, so the most likely scenario is a negotiated buyout. Nobody wants their dirty laundry aired like that. If Tressel is canned he won't fight it. Violating rules of conduct and the law is most certainly in his coaching contract as grounds for termination without compensation. If he violated NCAA rules and the school acts to terminate him because of that then he has no grounds to sue. If they fired him because of falling short in BCS games then he could sue for rightful compensation. In this scenario the former would be the case. He wouldn't drag it out since no judge would accept the case. A more recent and somewhat similar example was Mike Leach at Texas Tech. However, Leach was fired amid allegations of player mistreatment and there were no formal sanctions from the NCAA. Thus, it is debatable whether he violated the codified code of conduct in his contract since that dealt with legal and NCAA sanctions. Tressel's contract and all of them for Div 1 coaches contain clauses which allow justifiable dismissal if sanctions are levied. It's not like Tressel is in the drivers seat at all.
  2. I found the oldest thread and bumped it.
  3. This thread should be stickied for the awesome quote.
  4. Bahahah. How anti climatic. The big post is, we will meet on a Friday to discuss and figure out what to do. The student's aren't terrible at games. The problem is half of them are split from the pep band and it's hard to coordinate cheers between East and South stadium. IMO move them all back to the South End Zone like they were before 2008.
  5. You can ultra sound / stim it with a few corticosteroids to reduce the swelling. Normally they just immobilize the toes / front foot. A lot of times they will put you in the pool for a good 2-3 months and then on an elliptical so that you aren't pushing off with your toe. Turf toe strains the ligaments on the ball of your foot so you can't push off. Your only real option then is to give it time and not push off. A really popular rehab for it is so have people do things with their toes since you are not supposed to stretch them back. This normally means picking up junk with your toes. pencils / marbles / scrunching towels etc.
  6. These three are actually from Nevada. One man's Nevada is another man's Arizona.
  7. In my opinion we should move Carnes to #2. Give CG a RS year and move him to another position like TE. No use burning another year of his eligibility if he will never see the field at the QB position.
  8. Yea, I don't like how the east seats are basically the same height as the superficial fluff on top of the west stadium. About the sound, when the athletic department polled alumni and fans about the sound system there was only like 2-3% of people that complained about it. I think it is terrible in the stadium but I guess the overwhelming majority of husker fans don't think so. Thus, nothing will happen with it.. which is a shame because it needs a major overhaul.
  9. BLEK! I am moving to Iowa City in June for grad school (full ride at Iowa > full ride at UNL despite the abhorrent city). Anyone know of any decent hawkeye forums? I imagine I will have to be somewhat fluent in that garbage team to make my way through the day. Or are there any SKER fans in IC that want to have watch parties on Saturday's? I can't find anything in Planet Husker.
  10. this +1.never abandon texas or florida. they're just too rich in talent to ignore.Too rich in academic talent?if it's the question between a team of players who average close to 4.0 but goes 2-10 and a team that averages 3.5 with a conference championship and a BCS bid, i'll take the later any day of the week and twice on a sunday.i suspect most would share in that opinion. and if you don't, it must be because you hate seeing nebraska playing during the holidays. and to say that you *can't* find a good student athlete who can excel in both academics and athletics is flat-out wrong-headed and sells these kids short. Reading comprehension fail. How do you guys get student athletes out of an article that is entirely about academic students? It appears some of our forum members are some of these highly talented academic students from Florida and Texas.
  11. http://www.collegerudyawards.com/cfra-ballot.htm Sound the alarm. Get this kid an award. He's losing to Alabama's Will Lowery
  12. This must be an act of god. He was limping like a lame horse when I was in the Hewitt today.
  13. Keep him on staff and move him to full time recruiting coordinator and have him help out with drills. Hire Scott Frost from Oregon as WR's coach.
  14. why can't they? I really want Tmart in the slot with Jamal Taking the snaps at center and Burkhead in the backfield. Enunwa and Kinnie wide and Kyler Reed at TE. We'll spread them with speed.
  15. No it doesn't. He's a pitcher. It's not like it's an outfielder tearing their ACL.
  16. The article says he missed a mandatory meeting today. Which in turn led to the speculation that he had quit. I'm not big on rumours either. But often times, there is truth in this stuff and the rumours only blow that truth out of context. My guess is there was-is something there and it's being dealt with. How could he have missed the mandatory meeting? He wasn't supposed to be at it today. The meeting today at the hewitt was for all first year freshman student athletes. It was a zoo today. However, he is a second year freshman and therefore didn't have to be there.
  17. The OP is probably eating a lot of crow on this one.
  18. Charles Jackson West It keeps getting better and better.
  19. @KRC1995 It's an ABC 2:30 regional per ESPN

  20. @KRC1995 isn't it an ABC?

  21. Rumors of the Lions moving to pick up Moss. This week gets better and better.

  22. Not at all. He's a 3rd generation Legacy at Miami. There is no way anyone is going to steal him unless Miami ceases to have a football team. The kid grew up on cane football.
  23. GO USC!!!!!! Hope they can upset the Ducks!
