Hmm, a comparison between character issues as an adult and things that happened to someone before they were even born?

Hmm, a guy who was originally a 2* recruit, who has already been kicked off of one team?

Woody Hayes was gone a decade before Bo's playing days.

Reebok does nothing to get us away from the scandal - they're owned by Adidas.

Where's the one where Saban was, by his own description, giving Lane Kiffin "an ass-chewing"?

@jsneb83 Nah man, K-Swiss is where it's at!

@Dilly Dilly They decided to forgo their bowl bonuses that year. It was an agreement with Eichorst. Riley said "The credit belongs to the university for having that APR." http://www.omaha.com/huskers/husker-coach-mike-riley-wholeheartedly-agrees-with-no-bonus-pay/article_e6b05df0-9912-11e5-ba97-1f47dcfcde93.html

"I've never felt very comfortable here," he said. "I felt when I took over for Bob (Devaney after the 1972 season) that it would be uphill. I thought it would be difficult to last more than five years." Osborne often has said he almost didn't see a fifth year at Nebraska, such was the heat on him at the end of the 1976 season. That fourth squad ended the 1976 season with a 27-24 triumph against Texas Tech in the Astro-Bluebonnet Bowl. It seemed a rather mundane triumph. Hindsight shows it was a monumental victory in the program's history. "That evening, one of the regents got me aside and said, 'I'm glad you won tonight because if you hadn't, you would've been fired,'" Osborne has said.

2001 was pretty much The Eric Crouch Show. As much fun as he was to watch, it was hard not to notice that some things had slipped. I've often said that Jamal Lord's biggest 'flaw' was that he couldn't be a one-man offense like Crouch was. Of course, he shouldn't have needed to be a one-man offense, but once he took over, it became painfully clear just how far things had fallen. Honestly, Solich's biggest failing may have been the same as Riley's: both of them failed to take control. It's no secret that some of Osborne's assistants who stayed on never entirely treated Solich like The Man in Charge. And when he'd made his decision about Newcombe vs. Crouch, he ended up having to beg Crouch to come back instead of putting his foot down and saying his decision was final (or, you know, making the right call in the first place) (though there's still some who insist that Solich just drove up to Omaha for afternoon tea with the Crouch family). A good question is just how much had changed in 2003. He made some necessary changes to his staff, and they were probably more loyal to him than some of their predecessors. I'm curious as to how things were with the players, though - was Solich really the boss of the team at that point?

If we never hear about Verduzco talking about The Strain, that will be a win. TBH, I'm just glad we finally have an actual quarterbacks coach. That's something that's been sorely lacking over the last decade or more.

It was launched like two years ago. Not very old, but long enough for Cox to decide there's no money in it, it seems. Reminds me of HuddlePass, another here today gone tomorrow site that started like 5 years ago. They had I think Eric Crouch and Zac Lee contributing on that one, but it never really caught on.

No love for Lovie?

Does Solich have any known retirement plans? Not that I'd complain if it happened now, but I feel like waiting until he's done coaching would be more appropriate for a Memorial Stadium appearance/tribute.

Here's the tweet:

The stench can linger long after the nasty stuff has been flushed away...

'First look' would probably be a good way to put it.

Held did previously say that seniors at least get first crack at it....

@Enhance Nah, if that were me, instead of "EAT" it would say "FAT."

TBH, I'm surprised we finished ahead of Meatchicken in that poll.

*twitches*

If anyone's interested in Besiege and Rocket League, they're available for cheap in the current Humble Bundle ($14 for both, plus a handful of other games): https://www.humblebundle.com/games/hooked-on-multiplayer-2018-bundle

Yes.
