Not inflammatory at all. I wish the kid luck at Illinois. If I am fooled by the photo, I will be the first to admit it. No bad intentions on my part. 

You must be the guy who tells his wife “hey honey, looks like you’ve got a little guy hanging out there.” And then after getting the look of death says “no bad intentions, honey!”

…Arik Gilbert was buried on the depth chart otherwise he would have seen the field more.  Same goes with C.J. Sherman….

“He’s buried on the depth chart. He’d play more if he wasn’t buried on the depth chart.” 
I mean… sorry man,  but, that’s  ridiculous.

Who??????

Dude, chill. He just said there's a chance that some won't qualify. That's always the case with every school every year.

“Being around great minds” is the excuse that is used. There are so many qualified coaches out there, who don’t get the same opportunities because they aren’t related to someone who’s been in the game for decades prior.

True, but that’s also the case in pretty much every profession

I am glad they are staying and don't want to be negative.  Sipple said this morning on 1620 that Crawford is a LONG way from being a P5 wr.... not sure if it is due to his injury or other reasons.  Sip said that Crawford should not be a focal point of this staff.  Fairly harsh words from Sip regarding Crawford.  Said we needed to make sure we keep Washington and Brown and bring in guys who are ready to step in and play right now.  Keep Crawford as a guy you need to develop.

Wow, Sipple. That’s pretty cold.

This thread is to discuss coaches/players coming and leaving. NOT to argue about who is delusional. NO ONE CARES!

If you think huskerboard can get through more than 2 pages of a thread without derailing the topic then you are delusional. 

This swing of emotions makes me think of a 4 year old kid begin given pumpkin pie, looking at how weird it looks and saying he hates pumpkin pie, screams and rolls on the floor, crying that he wants something else (probably cherry) and that mom is the worst cook ever, then mom plops some cool whip on the pumpkin pie and the 4 year old takes a bite and the tears dry up, he looks around the room with a huge smile and tells everyone that pumpkin pie is the best, its his favorite pie ever and no one can ever cook better than mom

Long story short, its funny when adults act like 4 year olds.

Gonna go ahead and guess that most of the people commenting that Rhule won’t succeed are the same people who said Frost was the best hire since Tom Osborne. 

Calling Deion all flash and no substance basically means you don't like touchdown or interception celebrations and you'll judge a player simply based off whether he celebrates or not. People who think Deion is too flashy probably think Barry Sanders "did it the right way." Deion is literally one of the best corners to ever play the game, and that was while he was also an all-star caliber MLB outfielder. He has more "substance" of success than almost anyone to ever play sports. 

Regarding Deion's abilities as a recruiter...

I think the issue of Deion's recruiting at JSU is a bit more nuanced than what people think. HBCU interest and enrollment in general has increased since 2020, largely due to the increased discussion and aftermath following high profile events in the country around that time. It sends a significant message for a big-time recruit to choose an HBCU. 

Nebraska is about as far from that school/community culture as possible. Equating Deion's recruiting success in the south with young men interested in their cultural heritage with his supposed recruiting success here is an assumption with pretty flawed logic, I think. 

That doesn't mean he couldn't succeed recruiting here. It means he has not proven any ability to recruit outside that lens of HBCUs and the resurgence of interest and enrollment at HBCU schools.

I think the qualifications of a successful coach are quantifiable. Past results are usually indicative of future results. Frost caught lightning in a bottle. Then failed miserably. We need someone proven 

And therein lies the rub. 

It was clear in the stadium that frost was more involved in the sideline huddles at the beginning of every new drive. More than once Whip was on the sideline while Frost sent the offense in during the second half.

I'm just "meh" today.

 

Love CFB on TV today.  But I don't see this being a season worth getting excited about.....yet.

Your name is funhusker…

Notice the release isn't quick or special, and the timing/decisions are about average-ish.  But that's our Huskers guy (offer)

 

 

FSU’s line looks worse than ours!

Nothing false in any of it.  Read the articles on interview with MJ and radio show with Sharp.  Exactly the message. Period.  It’s simply a terrible thing for Frost to say and do.  No wonder the team seems to believe they are destined to fail / lose.  He says No fear of failure and I don’t know how to help you win.  

Objection, your honor! Speculation!

I have no idea if this will work out but I'm fully behind the new staff and hoping for great success.

I see you didn't share your vision for Miracle Whip's success as an offensive coordinator at Nebraska, and I appreciate that.

Excited for Coach Donovan! High level playing experience at an O Line factory, got to be in the NFL O Line film room and on the field for everything with that group... Learned from veteran coaches and players... Raiola nasty streak... what's not to be excited about? Other than y'all's fear of the unknown?

I have been seeing some flights from Lee's Summit (KC Area) into Lincoln and am wondering if that could be Sean Snyder for ST instead of Busch? Thoughts?  Or perhaps its just for some recruiting activity.

 

My favorite hobbies include:

- Cooking

- Woodworking

- Board Games

- Asking tall people if they're in the NBA

- Speculating on what person might possibly be on a flight from one city to another

- Jumping to conclusions

The problem with this staff is, they don't know how to coach around it.
