  1. Wow. We're currently ranked 30th on Rivals team rankings. Numbers 27-29 are Michigan, Wiscy, and Sparty in that order. What a log jam. We need to finish strong. I want to one up those chumps.

      It would be nice. I am surprised Michigan isn't higher....they usually are.

      They can only ride the "new hot thing" so long without producing....

  2. Thrilled about the recruiting connection to Georgia Warren has brought to the staff. That's a leg up we sorely needed and GA is a state we should collectively be willing to give Knapp's left nut to start recruiting from.

      Sorry HNN, GA > LA in HS football talent.

  3. Alright HB need some help. Thinking of finally venturing into the tablet market... stayed away for as long as possible (did this with smartphones too). I think I've schooled myself fairly well... don't need something super top of the line. That said, I'm either going to save some coin and go with a Nexus 7 or Kindle Fire HDX or splurge a bit more and get an iPad Air. Advice...?

      Just FYI: there is a little discussion about tablets here:

      Nexus is a great tablet.

  5. Mods, can someone please explain to me why my status just got deleted? I was asking for suggestions on tablets and it's mysteriously gone.

      i think its on the next page since there was a rush of status updates after a decommitment: http://www.huskerboard.com/index.php?/statuses/id/29787/

      Mods hate tablets? Or maybe it just went off the page due to all the new status updates? With NFL playoffs and high profile NU recruit decommiting and going to a garbage school, things change pretty fast.

      Yeah, it just got bumped off the latest list. Still here: http://www.huskerboard.com/index.php?/statuses/all/page__st__15

       

      Repost it, or make a thread in the A/V forum.

      Just get an android phone. I finally upgraded from my dumb-phone, and it's amazing. I wanted a tablet, but now I don't know what I would use one for that I can't already do with my android.

    2. The Dude

      The Dude

      Yeah if you have a smart phone, I can't really imagine why you'd need a tablet.

  7. Wow, I didn't know Alabama physically had the space available to contain two douchebags that large... but apparently it does.

      Alabama's next trip to Tenn is going to be epic for the people watching.

  8. Not trying to be Buzz Killington, but this great recruiting push ain't gonna mean jack if we don't learn to hold onto the football on the other side of the ball and block for a punt return. The majority of our losses are due to stupid mental mistakes on offense.

      A kicker that was fair to partly cloudy? Do you mean punter? We missed a few XPs early in the year, but we missed 1 field goal all year. We have been spoiled with our kickers for a long time, but don't assume that the next guy can do better than 12/13.

    3. Foppa

      Foppa

      It really doesn't matter how good of punt returner you are if you have 7 players tackling you the second you catch the ball.

    4. Danny Bateman

      Huskerzoo, I pulled this from a recruiting profile... Whoever we're talking to about being a PR, the first question they need to be asked is "Can you make 5-6 unblocked men miss after you catch the ball?"

  9. So did EZ-E get the wrath of the ban hammer brought down on him or just step away for a bit...?

      It was about stuff that's already passed now. Just some things happening with the Regents, Harv and Bo.

      da skers, you are worse then a girl giving blue balls...you damn tease

  10. Please send any and all e-hugs directly to the PM box of Mr. Accountability... c'mon guys let's all chip in. He really needs this. Let's make a difference.

      Mr. A dosen't need our sympathy!

       

      **If there is a thread somewhere in this mess of a board right now where Mr. A really needs our e-hugs for some extenuating circumstance and this was in fact not a sarcastic post, then I apologize. All my e-hugs and +1s will go to Mr. A for the next week.**

      ... and ByeBye is jealous.

       

      Seriously though, you and Mr. A are tearing it up in the presser thread right now. Very entertaining stuff.

      What the hell do I need a hug for again?

  11. In dire straights for QB-- who to start: Manuel vs. ATL, Palmer vs. Philly, Fitzpatrick vs. Indy, or McGloin vs. Dallas? Need to shoot for the moon...

    1. True2tRA

      True2tRA

      I've been hearing good things about McGloin.

    2. True2tRA

      True2tRA

      Glad that McGloin didn't get that Touchdown. Jennings is my RB. Who did you end up going with?

  12. Really, really disappointing we didn't punch it in somehow on that drive, but on 4th and goal from the 1, considering how this defense has answered when the bell has tolled this season, I'd probably tie it up too.

  13. Dude... This is PAINFUL.

  14. Is BTN2GO knocked out for anyone else?

  15. @ Stumpy--- I'd actually disagree. Ross Els as ST coordinator needs to be the first to go (keep as LB coach).

  16. And that's how we regain leads over teams we shouldn't lose to.

  17. Don't look now... but GO ARIZONA!

  18. What is the logic behind the quick swing going to Burtch of all our recievers...?

    1. Count 'Bility

      Count 'Bility

      What's the logic of doing it on 3rd and 1 period? Just another head scratcher. Even if successful I dont understand.

    2. HANC

      HANC

      Run for 7 on 1st down, then throw to Burtch twice on swings behind LOS for total of -2 yards...makes ZERO sense. But coming to expect that from Beck

  19. Still crap blocking on the punt returns... Grrr. I understand coming out in a punt block look there but this is consistently terrible.

  20. What the hell are we thinking on our punt retun blocking? This has been a problem all year. One of the moves this offseason needs to be pulling that tag off Ross and getting a real ST coach in who can do something.

    1. It'sNotAFakeID

      It'sNotAFakeID

      Yeah, I've been flabbergasted by what we decide to do on our punt return. No wonder why Jordan has fumbled a couple. You would to if you had 8 guys in your face.

    2. Danny Bateman

      Danny Bateman

      Holy crap? That first one? He literally had 5 PSU players right in front of him and 0 Huskers. Cannot comprehend the logic.

  21. In case you don't already know: this week is the biggest game of the season thus far. I know that changes every week, but this is a pivotal game for this season. Win, and we hold the tie breaker with MSU. Lose, and we'd need them to drop their two remaining games as well as a Minny loss to Wiscy to sneak into the Big 10 Championship. Scared of MSU or not, you should feel excited and anxious. If we lose this game, it's off to the Crap a Palooza bowl.

      I like it when people tell me what I should feel. What else can you tell me about myself?

    2. Foppa

      That you sound like one of those Willie Wonka memes that everyone makes.

    3. Danny Bateman

      Danny Bateman

      Lol. Well played Foppa.

  22. So let's just cut the crap. Is Bo or Beck trotting Taylor out there even in the midst of injuries? The way I understand it... Bo is forcing Beck to start Taylor? Even though Beck possibly would rather go with TA/RKIII? If I am wrong, correct me. If I am right, that's a TERRIBLE look for this program and Bo as a head coach.

      i agree with Lyons. Unless of course Bo is lying. But he said straight up Taylor told him he was ready to play.

      The thing I wonder is what is Martinez doing in practice (or the others not doing)

      that makes the staff believe he's the best option.

    4. Fuzzy

      Fuzzy

      no one knows the truth, its all conjecture.

       

  23. Is this craptastic offense on Beck or TMart?
