Thanks!!! I've got a job (been working it for 2 1/2 years), web developer for UNL. Good luck to all my fellow grads that are still on the job search. Pretty sure I bleed Crimson and Blue though. Crimson is pretty close to red though.

They don't call names at graduation commencement, you just line up and go grab your stuff. People just recognized Suh and yelled "Suuuhhhh"

The Suuuhhh part was awesome (I graduated Saturday too). No joke, the girl sitting next to me during the "Suuuuhhh" was totally clueless. Here's the conversation I had with her. She - "Wow, he must have been popular" Me (thinking she was joking) - "Haha, funny one" She - "No really, who is he?" Me - "Seriously, he's Suh, a Defensive Tackle that should of one the Heisman." She - "Oh, I see, who was the last person to win the Heisman (for Nebraska), Tommie Frazier" Me (not wanting to waste my time on some clueless chick) - "No, Eric Crouch was" She - "He lived by me" Me - silence

This has been discussed on the KU boards plenty. While there are some fans that don't like the Gill hire, I for one am pretty pumped. So much so that I'm buying my season tickets next week and going to make the trip to Lawrence every week. There was also a good amount of KU fans that were iffy about the hire, but after hearing Gill's first presser are sure he is a guy that will get the program on the right track. The dude for GA can suck it. And if you look around which many of you have there is a site like that for about any coach you can think of.

"Recruit, Beat Missouri, Recruit, Win the Big 12, Recruit" "I did not come here to use this as a stepping stone to go to a football dynasty. I came here to make a football dynasty here at KU. Rock Chalk Jayhawk" Biggest mancrush ever right here... Welcome to KU Head Coach Turner Gill! Going to by my season tickets right now (and going to make the trip down from Lincoln for each one)

The damage is done, he's as good as gone. Lew successful ran this smear campaign against the fat man and is getting what he wants. I for one am disgusted with our AD. I do think he has a coach lined up ready for the spot because Lew isn't the type of guy to pull some stunt like this and not have a plan, here's to hoping we don't get another "I'll be your best friend" Terry Allen. This year has been horrible but it sure as hell beats being 2-10 every year and losing by 50 points all the time.

I'm afraid he's out the door. He's a fiery coach, not afraid to get in players faces and rip them a new one if they are messing up. Not so much different the Husker coach. Difference is that we have players whining about it because they aren't getting enough playing time. It makes me sick that the incident causing all the fuss was him poking a player in the chest. In high school my coaches would rip me around by my facemask if I was f'ing up.

I'm still around but wasn't one posting a lot of preseason crap mainly because I was worried about our defense. Now I'm more worried about our offense as they o has been free falling and the defense has stepped it up (really a lot of the scoring has been off of turnovers on our side of the field lately). If KU's offense (er... Todd Reesing) decides to show up it could be a very entertaining game to see one of the top offenses in the Big 12 go up against one of the top defenses (if not "the" top defense). If Todd continues to piss his legacy down the drain, you guys win big. I know you don't have an offense but if you get the ball on our 20 you'll punch it in. I'm going down to Lawrence for the game, and will be cheering my Crimson and Blue ass of. Have fun in Lawrence husker fans!

They do the same ceremony when Missouri plays in Lincoln at halftime

Actually the faculty / staff dependent scholarship only covers 15 credits an academic year and you still have to pay $3 a credit hour so technically it's not free. And you still get raped by fees and books.

I am too... but I'm not your typical Columbus boy. Rock Chalk!

Tech doesn't have a defense. I guess number 3 in the conference in defense behind Texas and Oklahoma means not having a defense. Not that the numbers are impressive. Oklahoma 55 nationally in Total Defense, Tech 60 nationally in total defense. Then offense, Tech 2 nationally and Oklahoma 4 nationally. This is about as even as they get, I think this game gets decided by a field goal, not by 14.

Also, there have been various defensive breakdowns. He could of been up in the press box watching with a better view of what's happening / coaching the new defensive coordinator on what he's looking for and how to fix it...

Mangino isn't leaving... you've got to be foolish to believe some random article with not a single source listed. I could see tension building though, seeing that we lost a lot of assistants last year and that it could of been Perkins saying no Mangino wanting to give the guys the money to stay in Lawrence. Mangino has the program heading in the right direction for Kansas, I mean when's the last time Kansas has been bowl eligible 4 years in a row... never, or even 2 years in a row... never, gone to a BCS bowl, never... actually been competitive in big 12 play consistently, never... etc. etc. He's got the chance to be something really special for KU and I really don't see him bolting. Although if he did leave, I could see the Offensive Coordinator Ed Warriner getting the head spot and in which case, I don't think much would change at KU.

Yeah, Dezmon Briscoe is the man. He was our whole offense in Lincoln too. He was my sleeper coming into the year, but I think everyone knows about him now. He will play in the league someday.... And it does suck. Maybe we will get up for Mizzou and things will come together. Reesing looked bad today, I think he got hurt in Lincoln. Briscoe was great last year and is better this year. Is he only a sophomore?? Where the heck is he from? Was he recruited by NE and if not, why not?! Briscoe's from Dallas if I remember right, one of the recruits the Texas schools didn't want so we stole him. And yep, he was a true freshman last year so he's at least got one more year left.

Okie State?

Mangino and Stoops are known to be really good friends and have been reported to call each other weekly... Don't know if they talk football but I don't see how they'd be able not to.

Check the date, it was last november, somebody bumped the thread.

I'll agree... the late hit on Suh was questionable at the end. But what about the roughing the kicker on them... Last I checked when I guy from the punting team throws a guy from the receiving team into the punter, it's not roughing the kicker. Just trying to bring up the point that the refs made sh**ty calls both ways, plus they had missed some earlier late hit calls on the skers as well. It was mistakes the cost the Huskers the game, as previously mentioned in this thread.

A b******* will never be executed in full at Nebraska... why? Because there is already a tradition of wearing "RED" to the games on Saturday, not black, not white, mother effin "RED". #FF0000 for my computer geek brethren. Just wear red, the only people wearing black will be my peers in the student section who think it's a great idea to do a b******* because it's "cool". I'm a Jayhawk fan and I know this much, this question wouldn't need to be asked if you were a true Husker fan.

To those husker's complaining about Jayhawks being dicks after they won in '05 and '07. Let me go this far, I haven't missed a Kansas vs. Nebraska game since '96. I remember being a younger kid either hanging out with my parents as they were tailgating in Lawrence having grown adults come up to me and say "How the f#*k could you be a Kansas fan, they f'ing suck, hope you enjoy getting spanked by the Huskers today" or even telling there kids to come over to me and saying similar stuff, afterwards giving their son a high five. I remember walking into Memorial one year having one person toss the remainder of his "red plastic cup" on us (so much for a dry campus, eh?), also having one person and his son budge in front of line at the concession stating "Don't worry, their just Kansas fans", and getting taunted continuously the whole game. Don't try to act all holier than thou on me here huskers, don't bitch about us enjoying spanking you when you did the same for 30+ years.

Judging by this photo at the spring game, looks like he's already losing some weight. Rumor on kusports is lap band surgery. As far as the beakers go, I'd be more than happy to see an 7 or 8 win season out of them. I'm not like some ku fans out there who think we're national championship bound, but I think we'l have a good season all around. I will predict that everyone's beloved huskers blow another streak this year, and you all know which one I'm talking about.

Beer not allowed on campus... ha. I haven't been to a tailgate on campus that was without beer.

It can pretty much be summed up like this for me. Hate: Mizzou Like: Not Mizzou Love: Kansas

Too bad Chasey boy doesn't stand a chance after throwing a baby fit on national TV.
