^^^^They seem to be making it sound like the injury happened because of the comments. Maybe they should call for an investigation that an American citizen was faced with violence after practicing her 1st Amendment rights. LOCK HIM UP!!!! oh nevermind, Trump's on the "right" side....

First off, I hope NU can switch Bryson because he's a talented player. But he's not the type of player in your post that looks at NU as some sort of Mecca. If he was, he'd already be switched. D1 athletes, at least most of them, will bleed for whatever school they play for as long as the pride is instilled by coaches and asked of the players. There isn't anything magical about Nebraska farm kids. "not"Funhusker

Basic, but I love the stiff arm run of Rex Burkhead against Wisconsin.

Can our new LB coach just create a bot or something to start following all these kids? Seems like it might be worth it and grown men won't have to embarrass themselves.

Does a person get paid if they have a certain amount of followers? What's the point?

If we have switched to talking about the weather, does that mean Josh Moore is as good as N? Isn't that kind of how the Scott Frost thread went?

I have family in Texas and they have the annoying "Texans are tough" mentality....until it snows half an inch.

Could the same be said for Moore and Alabama voters?

The barn is real, and it has another man's name obnoxiously large on it. Just not Bookie's. Just the "Bookie" is photoshopped. There is another large name on the actual barn along I-80....

Sounds eerily like Eichorst's introduction of Riley.... Except Riley wasn't supposed to "build this program", he just supposed to start winning championships.

Nick Saban?

Am I the only one that reads these posts in the voice of Jar Jar Binks?

Fans will be fans unfortunately. Frost's words were directed at media. Has the media ever tried to get stories from family members that weren't "newsworthy" on their own merit? I can understand why media asked family leading up the hire. They were asked for the same reason assistant coaches, players, support staff, and salt-water aquarium guys were asked. The reporters were looking for a source to tell them where Frost was going. Now that he's here, why in the world would anyone ask Scott's wife what his plans are when they can just ask the coach himself?

Has this ever been an issue before? I don't remember ever really hearing about Osborne's kids or the families of other coaches. Even Pelini's kids stayed out of the news. There will always be rumors of what family members may or may not have done, but I don't recall the media tracking down family members once a coach is in place.

Pretty sure there are pics of Bielema in a swimsuit on this site somewhere...

As a 37 year old man not getting workout/diet results like I want, i won't lie. I first opened this thread for the same reason.

Father Flanagan, Mother Theresa, Mike Riley...........aaaannnnnd GO!!!!

Mike Riley is a nice guy along with most other people. This isn't a knock on Riley. "Settling" for opportunities that are best for your situation doesn't make you not a nice guy. Riley is more driven then most, but so is Nick Saban. The "argument" of the article is that Riley is some kind of "nicer than nice" type individual. He just wasn't a jackass like a lot of other coaches.

What? Being able to "coach" is why they get paid the millions. Being a "nice guy" is an expectation of everyone walking down the street. My dad is a normal guy. Always smiles and never acts mad in public. He lost his farm in the 80's, he lost his passion and dream. He had no choice but to try and save it by taking on two extra jobs to no avail. He then ran for County Assessor, a job he hated, but knew he was more than qualified for. He did that for 16 years and outside of the people he worked with, I swear he hated every second of it. But no one could have told you that. He then took on a job as a network administrator for the local bank because of his personal relationships. Again putting in long and unappreciated hours. He is my Dad and a "normal" guy to most. Being nice when facing adversity isn't a "bonus" it is an expectation for a person in civilized society. It's the people that "give up" is who we tend to look down on, not as peers.

THE SELLOUT IS A FRAUD!!!!!

I don't think was "anger", it was honest. And to you pretty much agree according to this post. Eichorst screwed the pooch from the get go.

You should write a letter about them

Several positives: 1. The "Second thought was they ate too much" (very funny, he's at home with his buddies) 2. The "I hope they have to adjust to us..." (man has some moxy) 3. "We aren't going to win every game......" (This was the most comforting and honest answer he gave as far as I'm concerned.) I'm glad he conceded to #3 out loud. And the fact that he added Nebraska would be respected even in a loss. But it was good to get a reminder that traditionally Nebraska has been a winning program, but even in the years they weren't they were respected. They weren't respected because Tom Osborne was a "neat guy", they were respected because they played their asses off! I think Frost pretty much said today that "hey, we have some growing to do. But while we are reaching up, we are going to throw some upper cuts." I'm pumped!
