Hey All, I was listening to 1620 the Zone this afternoon and the boys were talking about an event planner who is going around to many of the universities and planning something called 'Grid Iron Bash'. The event is described as an event "which will take place the eve before Spring Games -- April 18 -- at top college football schools across the country. Gridiron Bash (football’s equivalent to March Madness) will broaden the fan experience to include a live concert, interactive fan area, giant pep rally, chalk talks/autograph sessions with school football legends, a truncated practice, and a $1.75 million scholarship award contest." Do you think this would go at UNL? Some of the Big 12 teams have already signed up (Texas A & M, K-State) They have big named performers (i.e. Fergie, Goo Goo Dolls, Alan Jackson to name a few). Mike Severe said it sounded like a great idea for our spring game. Any opinions? TLS2

It was great seeing Baker's name/picture this morning in the Parade Magazine's All American Football players. He was their top lineman of 2008. Did anyone else see this? GBR! TLS2

Hey All, I just heard on 1620 'The Zone' that Collin Okafor has decided to stay at Nebraska! Good News for us!! I also heard that Marlon Lucky should be coming back for his senior year as well. Kevin Kugler said that Okafor spent alot of time with Marlon Lucky this weekend. Fall 2008 can't get here soon enough!! GO BIG RED! TLS2

Thank you for serving our country!!!! God bless you and stay safe! TLS2

Merry CHRISTmas all! It's been great being part of this board!! Here's to a hopeful 2009! Be safe everyone and enjoy your family and friends!! GO BIG RED! TLS2 Luke 2:6-11 "In the same region there were some shepherds staying out in the fields and keeping watch over their flock by night. And an angel of the Lord suddenly stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them; and they were terribly frightened. But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid; for behold, I bring you good news of great joy which will be for all the people; for today in the city of David there has been born for you a Savior, who is Christ the Lord."

The link you shared says that Grobe will NOT be at Arkansas next year, he had a change of heart. Grobe will be at Wake Forest next year.

I checked the USC official board and there isn't anything on there about a retirement except that one of their players won defensive player of the year. The report is bogus.

Well done, Coach!

Thanks. After I wrote that post, I found an article in the Omaha World Herald sports section this evening with Gill saying the same thing. Osborne said it was the hardest call he ever had to make but Gill was ok with it because he saw that he was needed at Buffalo and it just wasn't time for him to be a head coach anywhere else but where he is right now. Good Man, that Gill.

I'm still waiting to hear what happened with regards to Turner Gill. Did anyone hear anything or read anything? I've browsed online but wasn't able to come up with anything.

What planet have you been visiting? its called "real world, just because i want something to happen dosen't mean it will" world. regardless of what you're hearing right now bo pelini is in his office off skip bertman drive... and will be unless "the above mentiond" takes place. at least until jan. 8th Ummm sorry friend but Bo Pelini was announced as the Head Coach for Nebraska last Sunday afternoon. (December 2nd @ 4:00 p.m.) You're a little behind the times.

Another university is picking him up. 8) With the interview I saw on TV with Gill, not being able to hide that little smile.. I knew something was up. Did some home work... and you'll be happy! BRING BACK HERBIE! <--- This would complete the HUSKER NATION 2008! You Tease You! Do tell all! Inquiring minds want to know!!! LOL

Besides Callahan's spitting, the nervous tick he did with his mouth needed to be stopped, even if he had to get counseling in order to quit it. It was one of those things that you didn't notice until someone pointed it out to you that bothers the $hit out of you. I always wondered if he had TMJ syndrome (Tempro mandibular Joint syndrom) People that have that have difficulty opening their mouths. It drove me nuts as well!

Interesting. After the interview either Dave Weber or Ross Jerstrom commented that now that LSU is number 2 and could be playing for the national championship, Bo is mulling over whether to go back and coach it. Would NU allow him to do that? I think it would be a nice thing for him to be able to do but I'm wondering if his workload here is so large that he won't have time to do it? What do you all think?

Yeah, HUSKER FAMILY (No more Husker Nation!!)
