  1. He was a late add but was someone I was super excited about when they got him. Never got to see much of him to know how he matched up, but the little I saw didnt really excite me. I just assumed he is 18 and will take time to learn. So hard to know when you bring that many new guys in who will rise to the top and who wont. Probably trying to get out now so he can maybe be available for another team 2nd semester next season? Probably a good thing that we have another scholarship to play with. Much more excited for next year with Stevenson, Walker and Banton available. I wouldnt be shocked to see a few other guys bolt after this season. Akol Arop is one to watch.
  2. I like the idea of a fast linebacker/ flowing hair... He seems to play fast, but of the video I watched it seemed like he would pick a spot and sort of run to it... change of direction could cause problems but I think having a fast LB would be nice. He is one of those guys I think you just let loose on 3rd and medium to long and tell him to go get that QB...
  3. If the police investigation is still ongoing, a 2.5 year ban from UNL might be least of concerns. I dont know how many times men need to be told "Just because she doesnt say no, doesnt mean she is providing consent" If she doesnt provide consent and you have sex with her, that is rape.
  4. Pretty clear this is a Nebraska decision based on the timing and his tweets. Either we got someone better or we found something out that scared us away. I appreciate if they did pull the offer they did it with enough time so he can land on elsewhere.
  5. Well.. That was quick.. He was committed for all of a week. Wonder if another addition pissed him off or if we went cold..... Seems weird.
  6. Wasnt sure if it was a Paul Allen type situation where he was on gopher shows that are actually paid for by the University. Paul Allen is a KFAN employee but actually gets paid by Vikings for his broadcasts. I do believe he might be considered a Booster though and that is where things would become interesting. Ron Johnson is going a bit after Nebraska. He seems to have some hate. I do like his takes on the Vikings though.
  7. Is getting a subscription to Husker 247 worth it? Looks like it is 53 bucks for a year.... Or just go for the monthly 9.95... Curious for those who have it?

      I'd suggest you invest about half that in getting a subscription to The Athletic and utilize HB and The Recruiting Hour as free resources and spend the remaining money on some Shiner Bock Holiday Cheer.  You'll be much happier that way!

      The Athletic is okay. I probably won't renew next year, though.

  8. I hope he goes full Randy Moss and moons them.
  9. Yes. But I think we will start to see some potential staff changes. I think you start to see questions come year 4 and 5. If the ship hasnt made obvious corrections by year 5, I think the change could happen. I think Frost has a lot of learning to do. I am not a fan of some of his finger pointing. I think he needs to own up for when players dont execute, that sits on him. I have been a bit disappointed but lets not forget, he is still a young coach. Lumps will happen. Its about learning from them.
  10. I dont think he is. He is on KFAN and does a lot of Viking talk. I actually normally like his takes. I would describe him as a bit like Damon Benning. Smart football guy who probably thinks a bit too much of himself and will just say whatever he wants. That being said, he does technically get a paycheck from the Gophers(I believe) and wouldnt this tweet be considered "recruiting". I get he isnt a Gopher coach but......
  11. Planning to drive to Nebraska on Wednesday and things just got a lot more fun..... MN to NE should be super snow covered.... Lucky us.
  12. I am not trying to say Nebraska doesnt deserve the win,. they are taking advantage of the mistakes which is awesome, they just havent been dominating.. or at least werent when i wrote the message. Very happy with the game.
  13. The YOLO pass giveth and the YOLO pass taketh away.
  14. haahahahahah... It is just one of those games. Good lord that was an AWFUL throw.... For a year that we have had a lot of bad breaks, maybe it is coming up roses.
  15. Maryland is just so bad. Nebraska really isnt playing that great but have taken advantage of Maryland just handing them points. Defense looks weak up front. Offense lacks creativity yet here we are.. up 17-0.
  16. Watching Gophers game and PJ Fleck movie for them was the Lion King, comparing them losing to Iowa like Simba having his dad die... Good lord. 

  17. No Kanawai Noa, Wan'Dale Robinson either... Good lord today might be ugly.
  18. Yes, he could grow taller, but I am more thinking about the muscle they will put on him. He wont be back to basket, they will keep him athletic but when he gets down low, he will be hard to move. He is someone who with the right coaching could be really good.
