Ain't gonna happen, time moves on................

Some of the stuff on this board is unbelievable. For the record, I think CU has improved from a 2-10 first year under Hawkins to 6-6 this year. They are playing Alabama in a bowl game. They beat Oklahoma this year, who was at or near number 1 at the time. They do have a nice history, w ith a staff making some real progress. Kids see this, along with TV exposure, and want to be part of it. Let's give them a little credit. As far as I know, you don't have to learn Spanish to live there ( nice comment ), and they don't offer girls to recruits. Maybe recruits want to be part a positive and upcoming program as was said before. Maybe some of them even read this board and draw conclusions from the discussions...........

Maybe it is time to look at NU in a different light. All things ebb and flow. Remember the great Army teams of th 40's and 50's, the Syracuse teams the past, Fordham, etc. Their times came, and went, based upon a variety of factors during that time period and beyond Maybe the same is true of NU. The college landscape has changed, for better or worse. Maybe the days of Nebraska, or anyone for that matter, dominating year in/year out are gone - and an adjustment for expectations is in order..........
