  1. He makes the list because of my favorite NU roster situation. QBs: Taylor Martinez (1), Armstrong Jr. (2), Ron Kellogg III (3), Johnny Stanton IV (4), and then Ryker "Fyfe" Someone here recognized it, I think. It still make me chuckle.
  2. 15 years ago, or so, a tornado ripped through Hallam, NE area and did a TON of damage. Basically leveled the town. One of our customers, who had great prices, asked to be charged list price because he was getting paid a percentage of material costs by an insurance company. I'm sure he wasn't the only one.
  3. True. 2-5 is where the debate is. Number one is TM; I think everyone will agree to that. Well, except that one poster...
  4. Over the last 15 years? College QB? Easily Taylor Martinez. 1. TM 2. Tommy Armstrong 3. Adrian Martinez 4. Joe Ganz 5. Ron Kellogg Then the rest...
  5. I don’t think you can say 2020 was a lost year. It was definitely crazy, but it still included recruiting, practices, and games that everyone was trying to win.
  6. So the man is making money off of stories of him killing people? No thanks...
  7. So spend a ton of money on stadium and facilities? Seems like your beef is with the NIL donors. Feel free to pony up!
  8. That’s why NU needs the extra money from the Big10. I feel like this conversation is going in circles.
  9. It's not about how much money the school makes. The NIL cooperatives are about donations from boosters, or even just allowing kids to make money for doing their own things. If anything, that extra "$50 mil" is important if boosters are going to give to the NILs instead of the universities. Huskers still need cash for everything else.
  10. Next year’s schedule is not much tougher. Id say its about the same as this year.
  11. I also think the parody of teams made coaching jobs more even. I didn't follow coaching jobs 30 years ago, but were OCs and DCs of teams like Nebraska, Michigan, etc really interested in going to directional state non power5 gigs?
  12. Well, that depends. Do they just strongly support the stances of the Nazi's of Hitler's Germany, or were they actually alive and part of Nazi Germany? Because a lot of people roll their eyes if you call anyone besides 90 year old German men that fought against the Allies "Nazis"...
  13. Really? Disney talks about how Twitter needs to do something about hate speech, and certain Twitter posters cancel Disney accounts to retaliate. One could assume that only people who partake in hate speech would be upset with Disney.
  14. It was just a joke... I'm still a "Boliever"!
  15. There is real issues of stealing for the NCAA and conferences to deal with, like assistants stealing signals…
  16. See!!!! Pelini knew what he was doing. Win the games you were gonna win, and just make sure the losses were ugly enough to keep fans happy!!….oh wait…
  17. Is he announcing that he's taking the A&M job???? !!!!!?!?!?!?!?!?!
  18. I was looking at next years schedule, and I do think OSU is a "for sure L", I'm not too worked up about the rest. Assuming Rhule and his team advance on schedule: Colorado in Lincoln should be a fun game! The other two non-conference games should be wins Illinois, Purdue, Rutgers, and Indiana should be a stretch of winnable games. UCLA in Lincoln during early November isn't a real intimidating game. USC will have a new QB so who knows...even with the Heismann winner they were beatable (most likely an "L" though) And then it's Wisconsin and Iowa again. So again, only one "sure" loss with a hand full of very competitive games. I'm pumped for next year; I just hope I'm still excited a year from now!
  19. This years one score games were played by a young defense. A rotating door of QBs that struggled as the offense was never allowed to evolve around what worked but instead had to re-create the wheel to best match the QB that wasn't injured. A stable of young RBs and converted WR's. A line that was facing injuries. And a staff that was in year one that has historically shown that years 2 and 3 are much better than the first. Ask me again in a year, and I might have a different opinion.
  20. I agree with Mav and Rhule. Some new players can of course help in some areas but I think the best teams rely on young talent coming in and growing together with sprinkles of new talent here and there. Even a stud QB transfer is likely to have struggles until he develops some timing with WR's and understanding of what coaches are trying to do. The Husker defense may be downright scary in 3-4 years as the current guys gain experience together. Rebuilding rosters through transfers brings in a lot of variables; more than likely way too many. Colorado tried it this year, and it failed.
  21. Do you prefer NFL? The football is usually much better than any college teams.
  22. Brain fart!!! kinda forgot championship games are next week…
  23. I thought I saw somewhere that Army and Navy need to have 6 wins by today. Isn’t bowl selection tomorrow?
