He doesn't seem to have been a big Husker fan. Most kids growing up in Nebraska, if they think they have some talent dream of playing for the Big Red. I know all my friends did. I don't think he will be missed much by the Husker. Good luck to him, I would wish that for any Nebraska kid. GBR!!!

I think Keller already knows that he can play, all he needs to do is get some time with the play book. I wish him the best of luck. I think calling someone a "prick" who just chose to play for us over Oki or anyone else that might have been interested in him, is not the way I would want to be introduced to Husker Nation. GBR!!!

I am also living in Ariz now. This kid would be great to have waiting in the wings for next year. Just about every qb that ASU seems to recruit can throw a football. That gives him a full year to get used to the program and the players. This kid can play. GBR!!!

I was quietly thinking the same thing. Hope the coaches have a plan to try to keep theses 4 excited about playing time. GBR!!!

Will someone post on here when they get their tickets. They said they would start sending them out about 4 weeks before the game. GBR!!!

It all comes down to keeping pressure on their qb. Don't let him ever get comfortable in the pocket. I think we will win this game. GBR!!!

If we have a NFL coach who knows the wco and can get the kids ready for the nfl if they have the talent, why are we having so much trouble landing a good q/b prospect. Is it because Beck has 3 yrs left and maybe 2 to start and the prospects don't want to wait that long to get a lot of playing time. Beck was highly rated coming in and maybe they think hes a shoo in to take over after Taylor. I think next year is when we start seeing the higher rated q/b's taking more intrest in the Huskers. If we are not getting some of the top q/b's by Beck's jr year than it might be time to panic. Right now I'm just getting excited for the season to start and get to the USC game and see the Huskers play, got my tickets, got my room and my sons have never seen the Huskers play so it should be a great time. GBR!!!!

Excellent..LOL!!!! GBR!!!

I was about to post something like this. I am not one to bash any of the coaches or AD's, but this seems completely crazy that Steve P. has kept Collier around. Coaches leaving, no other coaches not wanting to come in, players leaving the team.....Just blows my mind! Wish i knew what was going through the minds of the people making these decisions to keep Collier around. Hey, I'll do the bashing for you. I think I posted this a about 6-7 months ago that we had to get rid of Collier earlier in order to go after a big name coach, i.e. Bob Huggins. I know the guy has had personal issues but the bottom line is he gets wins. Now once again we'll be in the bottom 4 of the Big XII. I said the same thing about Bob Huggins when he was out there. To late now. How about Paul Westfall, or Wesfall or how ever you spell it. GBR!!!

This man did what few if any ever have been able to do. He took over for a legend and kept the legend going. Not only was he a great coach but he is also a great American, his values typify why Nebraska was such a great place to grow up in. I think the state can use some of those values again. I hope he gets the chance to put his imprint on the state again. GBR!!!

I hate to see any Neberaska kid going to another program that the huskers wanted but at least the coaches were honest with him. I wish him the best of luck, and props to the coaching staff for being up front with Bates. GBR!!!

Could it be that some of these kids are just afraid to have to learn the wco and that they want to see some playing time right away, they won't get that playing time here their first year. Just a thought. GBR!!!

I think it would be good to see Kenny Wilson running back kickoffs while hes learning the wco. Would like to see what kind of speed and moves he has with a wide open field in front of him. GBR!!!

I can't here the games here, but scrolling down the post is great. You have me excited, pissed off, excited again. you people should be doing play by play. GBR!!!

He can't sit on the bench and be expected to do much in 07. I think if he doesn't get a lot of playing time this year 07 is not going to be more than 7 or 8 wins. GBR!!!

I think that when T.O. retired that a lot of schools thought we would now drop off in our recruiting, so they seem to me to be really be worried about this staff and the way they are getting some top recruits to visit even if they are not commiting. The name "Nebraska" still opens a lot of doors. GBR!!!

Thanks for the invite. Will do. GBR!!!

After reading C.M. interview I would say he hit it right on the head. I wasen't happy that F.S. couldn't keep it going, as I grew up watching him play and he was Husker family. When B.C. was hired all I wanted for him was to get this program going again. I think all true Husker fans want the same thing. I think it will be a tough year to to get nine wins this year and it might be eight again, either way this team is getting stronger with each recruiting class. This coaching staff has made a commitment to this program. I also think most of the fans do to. We seem to get pulled into debate that doesn't do anyone any good by a couple of posters who just want to stir up old wounds at the first sign of a game that we could of, should of our almost won. This just harms the program, IMO and we don't need it. I don't know if anyone sitting at their comp's who could do any better, I know I couldn't. It's fine to voice our feelings because we all care so much for this program, but calling for someones head for a loss is going a little bit over board. B.D. lost a couple of chances at the N/C before he got his and we all T.O. lost a few himself. These coaches deserve there time to see what they can also do. Looking forward to next season and beyond. GBR!!! P.S..It will be great to sit at the USC game with thousands of Husker fans.

I think alot of people on this board are young, I'm 34 but I've been watching since I've been 5 years old when I could actually follow and grasp a whole game - I've had my heart broke many a time, I remember all of them and some of them still drive me NUTS!!!! Thank god I never had to see them be horrible like my dad and grandpa did. The younger fans don't know how good they've had it since 1993,. that was the year the transformation was completed. Before 1993 it was ugly losing in all those bowl games and losing to OU with that damn Sooner Magic, So everyone should take their lumps and look to the future because it is BRIGHT. I think our history lets still lets the coaches get their foot in the door that some other schools can't get in. I will always think of the past teams and what they started for this program. skerfan has a point, it is time to look ahead but never forget the past greatness. We will be back sooner than later and never fall off as bad as Ala did or Okl. I for one am glad I was able to see this team thru the 60's till now. What a great ride it was. We won some huge games and we lost some but for those of you that weren't there to see the Huskers on the big stage year in and year out you will never know what you missed. Even those losses in the bowl games couldn't take away from what each of those teams did during the season. They always played hard right up to the final gun and you new next year we would be in another big bowl game. I always hate to see them lose and of course I always want them to win, but the bottom line is win or lose I just love to watch them play. GBR!!!

- The third reason is party. All I will say on this matter is this: If you vote for anyone simply because they are an elephant or a donkey, re-invest your time. Know why you are voting. Do not vote for someone because they are who your parents voted for. You were given a mind, use it. See through party-loyal propoganda and seek truth. Great advice GBR!!!

4 here. GBR!!!

How bad is it at night there? I would think if your in the parking areas it should be ok, if you leave as soon as its over. I lived in West Covina for awhile a long, long time ago for three months, didn't seem bad out there then. GBR!!!

Was surprised to be able to get them. Got 4 for $284.00. Going to take my 3 sons. Its only about a 7or8 hr drive from here. Of course 1 of them I must have dropped or something when he was little. Some how he became a Norte Dame fan. Middle son so it figures. We just won't talk to him much on the trip. GBR!!!
