@Cdog923  I've been out and active constantly by necessity.  I've had two, both have come back negative.  I'm in the same boat, I need to know for the sake of the people around me and since I have the means it's better to have an abundance of caution.  I wear a mask, and after 3+ decades I finally quit biting my nails, but you never know!

Did Test Nebraska on Monday afternoon and got the results at this morning. You should have them soon! I'm negative as well. 

If everyone takes a test, and we drive the % of tests coming back positive lower and lower, they'll have to let us have football...  

Can you blame them?  The last time they had a open search they ended up with Ron Prince.

Oh sweet baby Jesus tap dancing on a f*****g cracker, I completely forgot about Ron Prince. 

Then again, considering Bill's advanced age, he probably forgot about Ron Prince too. 

What the hell are they going on about now?  I think it's a great hire!

no he is done

I want to say he's done, but this is tOSU and Urbs and they could find a way.  Then again, I would have said the same about Tressel...

No. He's done.

I don’t know. On one hand I hope he’s gone on the other because of who he is in the state of Ohio he may get to stay. 

  I’m curious about Shimano taking over though. Doesn’t he have a bunch of baggage too?  He was up for the Tennessee job then someone brought up something on him that happened years ago and he was exonerated for I think but folks at Tennessee got their knickers in a twist and said no. He stated at tOSU. 

??? (Sorry I just remember this all came up during the Scott Frost MegaThread. 

Sturgill's best cover is Long White Line.

@The Dude Didn't even realize that was a cover

Listened to most of them today. Pretty karaoke. But for some reason I like the Africa cover....because it is very identical to the original. Not sure what they were trying to accomplish here.

"You didn't see George Washington wear a mask!  Wearing a mask is against my Constitutional rights!!  FREEDOM!!!!"

People are f'n dumb...

@Loebarth Yeah, man, f#&% the system! I've got an idea: go drive drunk at 150MPH on the wrong side of the highway to show them you're not gonna let anyone tell you what you can't do! To hell with all of these other people letting anyone dictate what's good for them!

I get what you are saying but I don't care what he does or says. I only care if he wins. I am not looking to be his friend, he is not a role model for me or anyone I know. Just like I don't care what Bo said or did, didn't impact me at all.

With that said, I have had guys on my staff that were a$$hole$, that impacted me because it was on my staff and I had to deal with it.

I have no standards for Riley when it comes to what he says or does...

I think we're on the same page, but arguing about apples and oranges. Seems you figure that out.

I dont care either. But that dont matter. Cuz he is.

Come on teach.... There is more to the game than only winning. Sure it's one of the most important things but there are standards and other things matter.

@Cdog923 The pen is concerning. Schanaman in particular has gotten lit to start the season. SSS though so one can hope it's just bad luck.

@Danny Bateman I'm kind of wondering if we need to find a Saturday starter and move Gomes back to the pen. 

I wouldn't be entirely shocked to see Gomes end up back as a reliever when it's all said and done as he's got Brett Jensen level stuff and having a dude like that on the back end is a great weapon.  Everyone is on the absolute struggle bus when it comes to throwing strikes though which means you need to keep Gomes in the rotation.  Friday/Saturday was just bananas in terms of walks.  Gonna need guys like Blessie to step up.

Thanos looks weird probably because he has to be seen in the daylight... hard for them to use great CGI in. a daylight scene vs the Thanos we saw in after credits. But yes, Thanos looks ridiculous and who knows how well they will clean him up before the movie rolls out

Wood

Thanks doesn't look any worse than Steppenwolf did in Justice League.

Thanos

@knapplc I don't disagree with that, I just wish Lavonte would have chosen his words a bit more carefully. 

I have zero doubt Jameis did 90% of the accusations. But like I said...

It's a teammate using media speak, I'm not reading too much into it.

@Redux yup. Given the history of JW, LD’s comments were pretty soft, but it’s not unexpected from a teammate or friend. I’d estimate 99% of people would use soft language to defend a friend or coworker who they personally know or like. The other 1% are lying that they wouldn’t hold back from lambasting a friend or teammate.

Drew Magary is a pot stirrer and deadspin is a near useless rag publication

It’s Wednesday. I don’t know how many people roll with the band but it might be a bit unrealistic this late 

I hope we still get some butts in seats. The day it was publicized that the band wasn’t coming, people were putting tickets for sale all over Facebook 

There was a rumor that the drumline was going to make the trip, but I haven't seen anything to substantiate that. 

Did it affect the playcalling?

There was really only one drive that I felt like it mattered, and that was really the only sustained drive Colorado had the entire game. Was at the game walking around and there was really only one time I, out of shape and overweight, lost my breath (walked up the steep hill from the Creek Trail just north of the stadium to the south end to meet up with some tailgaters). Walking around outside of that felt like around Omaha. Do they get benefits from training in Boulder? Sure, but I don't think it had as much effect as somewhere like Wyoming, which is another 2000 feet higher.

If anything, the defense blew their emotional wad in the first half and couldn't keep it up through the end of the game. (Though they were still solid outside of a few breakdowns).

The defense hard to carry to much of the load at any altitude  

I'll cheer for UNO, particularly in hockey. But not Creighton; not when they directly compete on the floor/diamond and in recruiting with Nebraska. Have I been particularly cagey with that?

It's all good, Cdog. I understand why people dislike Creighton. I have a friend who HATES Creighton. I'm just not that way with them. I wonder if a lot of the hatred towards Creighton basketball comes from jealousy though.

That's certainly a distinct possibility.

@swmohusker Maybe an unpopular position but that isn't a good reason to grant a guy a hardship. It sucks and that baseball player is obviously a racist jackhole, but aren't waivers supposed to be for injuries or things like sick family members?

But then again, I'd think the NCAA would go to any length to help the storied tOSU program maintain their greatness... Can't poop where you eat, after all.

Not sure if that is what he would use for hardship, but if I recall wasn’t the heckler people are referencing either a teammate or a student on campus.  They will probably let him pay immediately.

I didn't see that racial slur thing. Yeah, I would think that will work for the NCAA. Can't imagine anybody wants to take the backlash from not granting it for that.

If he were to transfer here, he could only play 1 year. At that time, POB would be a RS Jr and Gebbia either a true JR or RS Soph.

He's saying those rumors aren't true.

Eleven Warriors ‏@11W

Ohio State backup QB Joe Burrow squashes rumors: "Lol guys I'm not transferring."

That is exactly what someone would say if they were going to transfer.

I think he fits in well under Kevin Wilson at OSU.

@ladyhawke He resides in the Kansas City area...but I'm not sure if he's a Mizzery alum. I know Pat Forde is a Mizzery alum, and he's always ready to pile on when we're doing lousy.

He's a Mizzou alum, as is Forde and Tom Shatel. Wonder what else they all have in common? 

It seems like Dodds likes to stick it to NU as well. Sad. Missouri is playing lousy football since their former coach 'retired'. 

Wow! I didn't know Shatel was a Mizzou alum! Interesting!

Great point STL. 

As others mentioned, the death penalty could very well kill many sports, mens and womens. But no doubt there was a lack of institutional control and oversight.

D’Antinio is one of the best coaches in the country it just so happens that he is also a bad human being.

They don't grow up fast enough!  Ha

Thanks, everyone! 

Mom and baby are well; baby decided to show up early, so she'll spend some time in the hospital, but we had to do the same thing with #1, so we're experienced in how the NICU works. 

It's sort of funny, though: for both of them, we were in the hospital the last two times Nebraska played Ohio State in Columbus. Suffice to say, this year's game stayed on in the hospital room a lot longer than the last one. 

Name suggestion: In honor of Ohio State's first punt in 2 years, you should name her Puntricia

I'll see myself out

What?

@ZRod We all agreed to buy Saunders a house. 

Where's my check? @Saunders

There will be no football this fall.  Get ready for more productive weekends.  

@methodical Those numbers are pretty high imo. Theres pretty good numbers showing 75-80% of people that get this wont show symptoms or only very mild, and they wont get tested. The amount of confirmed cases are what they are, but there are and will be ALOT of people that will have gotten it and will get it that wont be tested and wont count to that number. The amount of confirmed cases is WAY low vs actual cases. Many people saying they know people who have had it, they were around them, they themselves got mild symptoms but b/c they werent severe enough they couldnt get tested. The numbers are not true numbers really.

So potentially Nebraska’s next game will be In Ireland. Did not see that coming as I froze my feet off at the Iowa game.   

And refuses to pay people with whom he does business.

Yea a insecure creep that sexually assaults women is the new "pres". And the country doesn't care they are just "bitches" to him. So no the country doesn't respect women. And those christians that voted for him, damn those are some hypocrites.

I remember when we only argued about football here.

@Comfortably Numb That encompasses my point: at what point is it ok to have that expectation for basketball? Why can't we say "You have to go win a tournament game", especially with the talent returning to the team? If you continue to have low expectations for the program, you'll never be disappointed with a 5 seed in the NIT. 

But sometimes it pays to be patient.  When you fire your coach you can count on losing most of a year in recruiting.  That puts the program in a huge hole for the next guy.  When you fire two or three coaches in a decade it's hard to get traction in recruiting, and a base to build on.  Eventually you get a rep as an unstable team.  (This might hold true more for football than basketball.)  That said, Miles has had several years now.  So you'd hope his team would start showing results.  /jmho

@Cdog923 I think we can have that expectation. I guess I'm agreeing with both of you to some extent. I think that should be the expectation this coming season but I also think, in reality, if Miles just makes the tournament that he probably won't be let go. And yes you are right, if we don't ratchet up the expectations for the program when it is warranted like it appears to be now, then we can expect to receive the same subpar results this program has always delivered.

Watching golf is a good excuse for a nap. Playing golf is good if you've got way too much time and money and you want to get rid of both.

Let's call it what it is...fetch for rich people. 

At least it's dying out somewhat. It got a bump for a while back when Tiger Woods was on top of the game, but it's been on the decline for the last decade or so. Wouldn't break my heart in the slightest to see some urban golf courses closed and the land put to better use.

“This is not associated with their well-being,” Moos said.

I hope it's just some technical infraction.  That they are self-reporting is a good thing.  At least they are not trying to hide anything.  But blah. Sad.

I think it was the LJS that reported this was more of a forced retirement than is being let on, too. 

what a psycho get help dude

@Moirainealleged wife beater, Moiraine. I'd hate to offend those that defended Zach Smith's virtue when the story broke earlier this year. 

And there's probably a handful of people ahead of Zach Smith on the 'let's ban them from Social Media for life' train...but he's angling for a #2 spot here rather quickly. 

Like most instances truth lies somewhere in between. It appears Courtney Smith is being manipulated by many people here and not for her own health, but for other people’s personal gain. Herman fits in at UT. 

I think Riley and his team had already quit by the Minnesota game.  Hard to really feel too much for a group that has packed it in.  Miles crew is playing good basketball right now (for what they have personnel wise) and they are playing basketball the right way.  Much easier to feel for him as he is on his way out.  With that being said I see nothing wrong with how Moos has gotten Hoiberg if that actually happens. Cant let personal feelings get in the way of doing what is best for the university.  

Our local media loves to promote drama and divide the fan base. It gets them more clicks.

@Enhance Mike Schaefer peddling the Moos story on Sharp & Benning was where I first heard it, so I wouldn't be surprised at all if your bird theories have a ton of merit.
