He has to be killing it in practices to keep getting shots in the games. If this is the case, then it is definately a mental thing.

I am not even sure what the point of this thread is? Callahan had 4 years to produce and failed, not sure comparing the feedback each coach got in the first year makes sense. The only comparison that matters is 3 years from now. Bo will/should get a similar shot.

You take that back!!!!!!

I was thinking the exact same thing that night. I stayed off this board until today so I didn't have to witness the NU fan on NU fan violence. However I forced myself to watch the whole game and I thought they played better the last 3 quarters. Once the onslaught of mistakes was over, the team was in a fragile state and I was happy to see the team still trying out there. Hopefully this is what will carry over to this week for the team and not the negativity of the 1st quarter implosion.

Why would you not want it, just because you might get blown out? The players need to play in these big games, to understand what it takes. You saw the team take a big leap forward after the MU game, both the coaches and players changed. The coaches modified their game plans to the team's current strengths and the players started practicing better.

lol! saddest thing about that pic is you know some KU grads BMW was onboard. There goes their graduation present. BTW Cy, you never let me know if you hooked up with an ugly for me to get some MU/ISU tickets First of all...she isn't "ugly", she's....uh...unique. Why yes, Fro Daddy, I did make a point of hooking up with her and asking her about tickets...haven't gotten an answer yet since she's been off work on maternity leave....totally coincidental by the way (I really hope you enjoyed the ISU/Nebraska game CMB... ) . I wish you could have seen my face reading that second part. I went from "OH MY GOD" to "Silly, Chain Gang CY" , then to "No tickets yet to ISU/Mizzou" Anyway, thanks for the effort wait, you hooked up with a pregnant woman?

Seeing as how he played his College ball at Iowa, I don't see why he would even consider. Sure he grew up in Ohio, but I would imagine he is fonder of Iowa.

rivals Louisiana-Lafayette? Seriously? Well, it's a bowl.....a "SUCK-TASTIC BOWL" I don't see a finish below CU. I would guess Insight Bowl at worst, 8-4 should get an invite to the Sun Bowl.

The Wrestling Coach Won, but Ragoni did cross the goal line 4 times!!!! The one where Ragoni hurdled Manning was absolutely priceless!!!!

I agree, I think in those two areas he is similar to what Reggie Bush and Michael Westbrook do. However Westbrook is a much better in true RB plays, which IMO makes him one of the best backs in the NFL period. As far as the practicing part, I do wonder what Marlon would be like today had he had a coaching staff push him as hard for the past 3 years as Bo and Co are this year?

I think he is talking about learning the ofense at wide reciever, not running back. Plus, some of that stuff can get confusing. Yeah I am pretty sure Bo was talking about having to learn a new position over the past few weeks.

With the attrition they had from last year's class and Cody Green coming in this January, could his scholly count against last year's total leaving room for one more?

Sounds good to me!!!!

Well if that happens, I would think NU would be high on his list then so maybe it wouldn't be a bad thing. Who is better, Rex or Chris? The rankings don't reflect it, but I'd take Rex everyday of the week. Between his athleticism, diversity in skills and leadership, I don't think Whaley can match him. Rex is one of those guys who in 2-3 years will make this his team. You need 3 yards? He will churn you out 4. Need a hard hit to set the tempo? Rex will do it. Need a solid influence in practice and off the field? Rex is it. Kid is just filled with talent and is a coaches wet dream. Honestly, if you had to dream up a perfect player to play under Bo, I really believe Rex would be as close as you could possibly get to a perfect player for our coach. Well let's hope UT keeps slow playing him, I would have to think he is getting tired of the waiting game.

Well if that happens, I would think NU would be high on his list then so maybe it wouldn't be a bad thing. Who is better, Rex or Chris?

I haven't forgot about Mendoza, I think he will be to the running game, what Swift is to our passing game. Looking forward to watching him next year. I think the coaches will be hard pressed, not to get him a lot of playing time. IMHO GBR!!! I think they have 7 I-Backs on the Roster. Plus any incoming Freshman. They could move him to LB and gain some needed depth. I think he could start at LB next season. I don't know about him being able to start, I think you are under estimating players on the roster. Not to mention if they sign the current verbal commits. Sean Fisher and Will Compton will be a dynamic duo.

Beats a $4 hot dog...but we had those too. That beats a $8 hot dog at Yankee Stadium though

Maybe the win itself is over rated, but I think it has more to do with how you follow it up. NU beats OU and just like what happened after the wins you mentioned for KSU and CU, a lot of hype will come NU's way. National Pundits will suddenly declare that NU is back on the way up. Recruits will take notice too and I think you would see several of the big timers commit this season, just like it helped CU. However if NU wins then subsequently goes back to a 50% or sub 50% winning record for the rest of this year and next, the win was nothing but a nice footnote in history.

I think that the fact that this game is on the road will actually be a help this week. For some reason the team seems distracted in the first half of the home games, then gets it rolling in the second half. On the road, once the storm of home team emotion is weathered, NU can make the adjustments and make a run at winning the game. The team doesn't seem to come out as flat on the road making this possible.

Stoops may not be overly concerned with his pass defense, but he should be for this week. If he thought Freeman was mobile in the pocket extending plays, then he should be worried about Joe Ganz.

Is it possible that the TEAM is the one who has gotten better? All the Watson bashing was unfounded earlier this season, and will be again the next time the offense has an "off" day.

I like how TO awarded the Trophy

150-200 yards on the ground if we have 300 or 250 yards in the air. Anything less in the air and obviously the ground yards have to go up. I think overall Offensive total yards is a better measuring stick in this offense. I would like to see at least 450 total yards a game.

something just ain't right 'bout that one.... Nice!! Yeah, that 4 popped collars guy has the "I'm gonna rape ur daughter" creep look down perfect. As a parent I look at that guy and think there is absolutely no way you are dating my daughter.

I think the thing I like the best about that is it gives great insight to just how committed Chris Williams really is. Getting a verbal is one thing, getting the signature in FEB is a whole different level.
