  1. I don't want to turn this into a Bo vs. Turner, but just the decision process--doesn't that seem a bit short-sighted? I mean, you're looking at hiring a young guy, probably hoping to keep him in the job for 20 years, right? Do you really do that based on an immediate weakness in the program?

     

    I suppose if it was dead even, that's a reasonable tie-breaker.

     

    Seems logical to me. It's nearly impossible to fix everything at once, and the defense was probably the easier and/or most needed immediate fix.

  2. I'm going to catch a lot of heat for saying this, but Dr. Tom seems to be getting more conservative/anal retentive every year. He really seems to think that he's become the bible thumping morality police for everyone in the state.

  3. If you don't mind watching it on your computer in a rather small window, check out www.channelsurfing.net.

     

    No guarantee that it will be on there, but my guess is that it will.

     

    I tried that last year and they don't have the ppv games, nor any other site that I could find such as justintv. I don't think those sites can get away with ppv feeds. Believe me it is a pain because out in NY it is tough for me to see these games.

     

    Well crap-it's never stopped them with any UFC or boxing PPV event.

  4. a little off topic but you know what i am sick of on ESPN is farking Brett Farve 24/7....sorry but why is the guy such a big deal... what polling does ESPN use that says SOOO many people care about this guy...

     

    I'm ready for someone to take Brett out once and for all-especially after that blatantly cheap chop block that he laid out last night.

     

    Maybe Herbstreet just hated Bill Callahasshole.

  5. Here is my take of Herbie and Lil Red.

     

    Herbie has been around for ages, and he is a huge part of the tradition to NU.

     

    Lil Red was an attempt to bring a newer more hip mascot into the NU tradition.

     

    Quite frankly, i think the Lil' Red mascot has failed, and Herbie maybe be the oldest, but he is the best that we as fans relate to. Herbie the Husker is the best and will remain the best mascot for NU.

     

    I do believe i read an article on Fox Sports, believe it or not, Lil' Red was in the top 10 worst mascots, and Herbie was in the top 10 best mascots.

     

    Personally i love how we have one of the best mascots in college football, but we also have one of the worst. I support Cy's plan to pop Lil' Red. :)

     

    We used to have mascot just like Lil' Red for Bellevue East High School, and i didnt really care for him.

    "Are you serious? With a Porky Pig face, red overalls and a cap turned sideways -- yeah, it still doesn't make you look hip -- this plump little boy in a blow-up type costume is creepy. Herbie the Husker is much cooler"

     

    They pretty much summed it up with "Are you serious?" KILL IT!!
