  1. Sorry if this was discussed already but, what about Urban's wife Shelley? A nurse and on staff at OSU, doesn't that make her a Mandatory reporter? Shouldn't she be questioned on why she never reported any incidents. After all, Urban said he and his wife never discussed it.

    Is Husker Hounds still open?  I thought I heard a radio advert saying they were going out of business.  That could easily be another Husker store though.

     

    Cosign the Blackstone area.  Lots of really cool places.

    Still there. I believe its the last true Husker store in town.

  3. This conversation is total hearsay. Tyson has a great future with his speed under this new system. The only thing that would hurt him is the small window of time. Not because he is leaving, but because it will take 5 years to get this rock rolling.

    OK...I was wondering how long it would take for this defense to come out. Quite frankly, it took longer than I thought. When you have Roger Ailes and now O'Reilly being accused of sexual harassment. We have a President in office that obviously doesn't have a problem with harassing married women and even thinks his own daughter is a nice piece of ass.

     

    Obviously, it's liberals fault.

     

     

    Seriously....what has happened to conservatives when they still support people like this?

     

     

     

    I was at breakfast today with my mom and her husband, and they were talking about Bill O'Reilly being "targeted" by "liberal" groups. I rolled my eyes.

     

    1. I quickly pointed out that Fox News had paid out nearly 15 million to multiple women to settle harassment claims.

     

    2. Fox News wouldn't have paid out the money if there wasn't any truth to the accusations.

     

    3. Bill O'Reilly should have just hired hookers.

     

    That pretty much shut the entire "Bill O'Reilly is a victim of liberal activists" conversation down. LOL.

     

    Usually don't get involved in political conversations but these thoughts need addressing. First, don't care about Bill O'really, O'Reilly. Now about the $15 million paid out to several women.Companies pay this out to make it go away true or not. They don't want the hassle. Now I will give you a personal experience. I had an employee tell me she was going on vacation, I casually asked where and if she was going with someone, she has grandkids. This woman flipped out, wrote a letter to my boss stating I wanted to sleep with her and I had harassed her. I was called in to explain myself and had it not been for the fact that this conversion took place with her sister present, my company would have been sued. I would have lost my job, put in a position to explain to my wife and family why I got fired and prospective employers. Was not fun. I realize not all claims are like this but it happens far too often. Duke La Cross ring any bells? The news is full of false harassment claims. And it snowballs. Once someone finds out that a company "just paid them to go away" suddenly there's a line. Not trying to be cynical, just wanted to vent. Oh and, I never watched the Factor.

  5. all other persons present should face the flag and stand at attention with their right hand over the heart, and men not in uniform, if applicable, should remove their headdress with their right hand and hold it at the left shoulder, the hand being over the heart. Knapplc!!

    You put your hand on your heart for the Pledge of Allegiance, not the National Anthem. However, you do remove your hat

  6. The average attendance is around 6000+ And if you want a real thrill, come to town when the Fighting Souix visit. They travel like husker fans 17,000 packed fans at the Link. Doesn't get any better than that. Great fans, hockey fans, if you know what I mean, but win or lose they love to party. I just hope they move those games back to the Link. You all must come up and see. I don't agree with the fighting for donor dollars either. UNO won't lose any.

  7. imo, a team needs Tier 1 coaching or Tier 1 recruiting, coupled with at least Tier 2 of the other category, in order to be well positioned to win a championship.

     

    For each category, I define Tier 1 as being among the top 10 to 15 in the country.

     

    I think NU is solidly in the upper part of Tier 2 for recruiting and has been for a very long time, minus a short stretch in the 90s.

     

    I have serious doubts that we have Tier 1 coaching right now, and at 64 or whatever, I don't see the upside being there for a move up by Coach Riley and a legitimate championship runs.

     

    That said, I like Riley and I think he's a middle of Tier 2 coach, so with the talent we have, I do think we can be a consistent 7 to 10 win team with a pleasant guy for a coach.

     

    Will that be enough to stave off another shake up? I have my doubts. But I keep hoping Husker fans will get a grip.

     

    Regardless, we need to hire a Tier 1 coach, who is an innovative ground game oriented offensive minded coach, for our next go around, I think.

    Wow. I hope when you are 64 your kids have paid up the nursing home bill. I like how you pick and choose your "debate". Correct me if I am wrong, but you seem to be basing your opinion on the fact that Riley is too old to make a comeback or take a run at championship year solely based on his age AND he came from a mediocre school. Your list of Tier One coaches must be finite. I did not read all the thread, I have been in a self imposed retirement due to the Pelini crap, but this, this is crap.

    Well, I waited all year. This thread and MANY have gone way off track. Even as I post I can't believe there are 2 pages of Tommy Armstrong's Instagram of "us against the world". and the insane responses from the few. Let's review, those who think Tommy played the games for Bo, ie: Us against the fans, or those who think you all are idiots. Just stop. Social media has driven the syci of our young for the past few years and will only get worse. Oh and Husker67, change your avatar....Beck, really?!

     

    If there's a point to this post, I sure can't find it.

     

    Could you collect your thoughts and try this again?

     

    upon reflection and a sober morning...you are correct

  9. Having Nebraska ties is a great asset. Not sure why some are trying to downplay the value in that.

     

    Personally, I wish we'd fire Riley today and steal frost before he signs the papers.

    What??? Really.. fire a first year coach at your university and bring in a first year offensive coordinator, who had a so so year at another university and totally mess with his recruits. Solid choice.

    Anyone have a chance to watch?

    Nothing really new. Confirmed he is going to Oregon this weekend and said he talks to Scott Frost every week. When asked when he was visiting here he said he still has to work that out with his mom. To me it sounded like Oregon is the clear leader but he said as of right now nothing has changed and he is still committed to Nebraska.

     

    Have too agree. It was like he had Willy Wanka's golden ticket in his pocket and was making a decision on visiting the Kit Kat factory. The left one.
