Wow! Lots of storms in the Omaha Metro! Tornado near Louisville. Sounds like Cass County got hammered too with hail. Did Lincoln get much? I hope everyone is safe!

I know most folks think that beauty pageants are a waste of time but we’re so proud of Miss Nebraska-Sarah Summers who won the Miss USA pageant. This was the first time a candidate from Nebraska has won.
This young woman is a graduate of my city’s high school and attended the elementary I taught in. She was always the type of kid who helped others and is s great representation of our state.

Nice listing of the 2018 I drafted free agents and where they went. Some Nebraska kids on this list: https://www.sbnation.com/nfl/2018/4/28/17293694/nfl-draft-udfa-signings-tracker-results-2018

Does anyone know where you can find morrell mushrooms around the Omaha area? When I was a kid we would go mushroom hunting all the time in the Spring. They are delicious when deep fried and served with homemade onion rings made from Vidallia onions.

There is a lively discussion in the Football Forum on whether or not the Tunnel Walk song should be changed. I was curious as to how it all started and found this: http://www.huskers.com/ViewArticle.dbml?ATCLID=1087317

If Michigan pulls off the win tonight the Huskers have the satisfaction of knowing that we beat them this year. (Beat the NIT champs-Penn St. As well.)

Well, my bracket went into the toilet tonight. Nova played lights out basketball tonight.

TEXASS CHOKED!!! Proof that neither Texas nor Oklahoma should've been in the Big Dance!! (I picked Nevada! Whoo Hoo!)

Bruce Rasmussen Interview on 1620 the Zone-Wow! It was really good and helped me to better understand the criterion for selecting the teams for the Big Dance. Bruce shared that Nebraska was in the mix to the very end. (Game Time with Nick Bahe - March 13 Seg 5: Bruce Rasmussen)

ESPNU should just rename themselves ESECU. It disgusting.

Going through old newspapers I’ve kept relating to the Huskers. Ran across the OWH edition of Bo’s firing and laughed at these headlines:
Shatel: Eichorst Sounds Like a Man With a Plan
Shatel: Don’t Expect AD Eichorst to Flounder as Pederson Did in 03 (No he just set out to destroy our program!)
Chaitlain: Eichorst Proves He Understands NU Tradition, Standards (HUH?!)
I’ll bet both of these reporters cringe at these articles!

For those headlines. Eichorst was a man with a plan (the plan ended up not working, but it was a plan). Eichorst did not flounder like Pederson did in '03, he found a guy and hired him. Again the hiring ended up back firing on him, but he did have a plan.
The Chatelain headline is one that does not work, but was there anything at that point that indicated that firing Bo was a bad move. IIRC most fans were at the point ready for Bo to move on.
Hindsight is always 20/20 and I don't see a problem with 2 of the 3 headlines (with the Chatelain one coming off the fact that most of Eichorst's firing press conference was spent discussing the fact that while 9 wins was ok, we should be striving for more).
-
If Eichrost had a plan, he would have fired Bo the season before when Bo challenged him to do so. Eichorst did make a quick hire, but it was heavily questioned by all, though everyone agreed Mike was a "nice guy". To say we had to wait until hindsight before we could understand the missteps of those choices is misleading.
Also, it was well documented that the fan base was completely split about firing Bo.

Sad to see the Husker women (basketball) go down.
