  1. Hence "unproven besides David". No one wrote him off, I'm not sure where that's coming from. I'm pretty sure proven in this context mean someone who has established himself as an asset to the football team. David's the only guy that fits that description. The jury's still out on all our other guys.
  2. Deion Jones expects to visit for the Chattanooga game, not sure if it's official.
  3. I'm willing to overlook you spelling errors. I agree with everything you've laid out in this tapic.
  4. ^ Indeed, it is a very impressively sized package.
  5. That is something that the haters like to throw out, but I am of a differing opinion. The media, in all of their self-righteousness, decided to jump a couple of Big 10 teams over Nebraska while all we did was win, and with rare exception, win big. Why, do you ask? Well, I think that the media 1) got tired of Nebraska kicking everyone's asses, we never were a media favorite 2) likes to take down people that are well respected and revered, especially when that person is a Christian (see Tom Osborne, Tim Tebow) and 3) it was backlash for the Lawrence Phillips/Christian Peter/etc, situations from years past. fify I disagree with #2, I don't think the media tried to take down Tebow, quite the opposite, I remember the media talking him up like he was Jesus himself, declaring him the greatest football player ever. The general public doesn't hate Tebow because he's Christian, the general public is Christian. They hate him because he's a raging doucher. Kurt Warner is uber Christian, but he's not a raging doucher. Therefore the general public doesn't seem to mind him.
  6. Seriously? What kind of situation were we in last year when we didn't have a single proven LB then? Now we have David, Compton, May, Fisher & Whaley back. Martin could even drop back in 3-4 situations. Last year that was our same depth chart! Plus Fisher now! No other position do we have the entire depth chart back, yet this seems to be the one everyone goes off on regarding the lack of depth. (oh, it's the scary Big10 now) We didn't lose anyone! (minus Grove and his 5 tackles) We return 197 out of 202 tackles by a LB in 2010. I am pretty excited about the LB spot this year. Guess I'm the only one. Yeah, the vast majority of those 197 tackles were by David. I think it's fair to say he's our only proven guy.
  7. I believe Rocky Balboa defeated Mason "The Line" Dixon in a simulated fight, then lost the real fight. Although I'm sure Rocky would have beaten him in his prime, and it wouldn't have been close. Anyways, the moral of the story is: the last thing to age on a person is his heart.
  8. I think it just means the offense will have a little pizazz.
  9. I'd vote for Ron Clarks KR in '49 just because from my understanding NU football has very little to be proud of from that era. Also it doesn't seem right leaving Kinney's 2-yarder off the list, although I understand why you did. Dude was one tough runner. Definately deserves an honorable mention.
  10. 19 Obvious pick. I haven't read the whole thread, but if it hasn't been mentioned I'm going to be seriously disappointed in you all. Edit: nevermind, it's just Knapp I'm disappointed in. Fer shaaaame.
  11. More like bring the book to the game, and not rip the tickets out. But nice try. Edit: Boo yeah! Nice pajamas.
  12. Deleted by The Dude - brain fart
  13. I agree. But I think baba will take the money because Bo pissed in his face fast.
  14. Your source is zoogies? I can neither confirm nor deny.
  15. My source can confirm his snapping has improved. My source is very trustworthy. He wears a suit, has a million dollar smile, he's handsome, well adjusted, has a firm handshake, and his hair is dapper.
  16. What the eff is a blink 182? John Bush Anthrax is the only Anthrax I like. I agree with Opeth & Mastodon, stoked.
  17. No, actually these things usually turn out to be complete BS. The OWH has been trying to get ahold of Gammons to confirm his unfounded BS, which wasn't even published by the way, so far no dice. Twitter isn't a legit news source. It's an online hair salon, where ladies get together to gossip.
