Very true!

Hopefully not another 2010 SDSU game...

The Badgers could start me at Safety and not have to worry about losing.

Let's call it the cooler.

I think the toilet needs to be flushed (several years of recruiting) so to speak to shake out those who are not on board or hurting this team with undisciplined play. I stand by this team and the coaching staff no matter how much more ugly this season gets.

New coaches, new system, a prior losing season, the first game cancelled, facing a team who can surprise good teams, a walk on 4th string QB and 50+ new players and the 0-2 start is not a huge surprise. It looks like we go at least 0-3 before we start to see better days. We have the right coach at the helm, we have to give him plenty of time to right the ship and hand pick players for several recruiting classes. Did anyone watch Ohio State last night? How many players of their caliber do you think we have right now?

Another factor to consider is that several of the defensive starters were part of a zero win season 2 seasons ago...

I wouldn't have noticed it unless you pointed that out... Strange how you saw that.

It shows that we are in the market for a new head coach.

Nebraska would have dominated the Big10 through the 70's, 80's and 90's.

I hate to say it, but we are reaping what we sowed back in 2003. I was 100% against that firing... If we do get Frost, there could be immediate improvement. What I fear for him though is unrealistic expectations and or non acceptance of a below average season. No matter how good a coach is, there are just going to be some off years due to key injuries, bad luck, recruiting busts , poor player leadership and chemistry.

I am going to say we shoot ourselves in the foot, but hopefully still win.

Well, are going to go 10-2 now?

Then they are due for a win!

It doesn't matter who you put back there with this Offensive Line.

Not so idiotic now is it?

Well, pot should not be legal. Pot is not currently legal (most places). So don't smoke pot. If pot shouldn't be legal, neither should Alcohol. In fact it impairs you worse than weed and serves no medical purpose... Should we go back to the prohibition days then? I know that it will never happen again (prohibition), but can you think of how many LESS traffic deaths and nonsense there would be if there were no alcohol? Even under prohibition there was still drinking... I am one of the few who think pot should not be legalized... It is more of a what is next for legalization argument.

I'd wait until Sears is no longer before diving into that...

Although Lee is new to Nebraska and to this particular system, he is far from a rookie. You are right. He could be the second coming of Sam Keller.

Pat Fischer played 16 years at cornerback. For the Cardinals and Redskins. Don't think he had the longest career, but it was right up there. My guess would have been Shields, but he did not play for 16 seasons.

DVDCRR, what is the purpose of your post? From what I can gather, you are saying that 2 coaches with better records were fired...why hasn't Riley been fired? Maybe I am wrong... I was not a fan of the Riley hire at the beginning, but have warmed up to the hire. Right now, we do not have the talent on both lines to win the game that "matter". Unless a coach is losing terribly every season, you have to give them several recruiting cycles as well as a few QBs. We are still on the last staff's QB, and he is going to be sorely missed next season. I would not be surprised if we go 6-6 next year and this is not a knock on the staff.

You mean Westerkamp? I think he means this guy: http://www.huskers.com/ViewArticle.dbml?ATCLID=68192

Might need to concentrate on who the starter is first.

PSU has head to head AS WELL. Theres the problem. PSU has head to head and be the conference champion. PSU would have to get in too. If they don't, then I'll quit watching CFB. Because what else could PSU do? Not lose 2 games...

and if we would have pulled out the win, he would have been gushing about Nebraska.
