  1. Incorrect,

     

    Wanstadt was the first to be offered, but then was retained. That was the initail plan by SP. He had confirmation as most felt Wanstadt would be fired by Miami.

    Urban Meyers was a consideration, but he had no interest in Nebraska. Most top coaches had no interest in Nebraska... Too much preasure to win, firing a 9-3 coach, talent considered to be mid to low level in the Big 12. No matter what our thoughts of this program at that time, we were not considered to have the talent to compete with top 25 teams. We are lucky to have gotten the level of coaches we got. Who knows if they are good enought to return us to power, but they are what we have and we need to endorse them until they have proven they can or can not do the job. Way to early to tell either way.

    Gotcha skersfan about Wannstedt. I remember hearing his name mentioned, but this was so long ago that I couldn't remember the details.

     

    Agreed, we are fortunate to have the quality coaches we have. I believe they will be returning us to power.

  2. Is that about the cheapest I willget tickets for? Seems like it so far anyways....

    $55 looks to be face value since that is the price the university is selling them for.

  3. That is only because you were on the waiting list, not to the general public. I got one of those for the Texas Tech game and was able to buy 4 tickets to that.

    I wasn't signed into Huskers.com ticket section and was still able to see they are for sale. Looks like it is open to the public to buy.

  4. I just got an e-mail from Huskers.com. Tickets are available at Huskes.com. $55 each.

  5. This was in 2003, not 2005 though.

     

    One of the two current Nebraska football players listed as potential witnesses in a case involving an alleged Lincoln steroid ring was suspended from the team in 2003 for failing a drug test, his father said Wednesday.

     

    Current fullback Grant Miller, one teammate and 11 former Huskers are included in a 132-person witness list filed in Lancaster County Court.

  6. I've seen it happen once when two girls who were friends of mine had been drinking...

    Weird for them, sweet for me and the other dude there.  Best night of my life.  ;)

    I've seen it one time too. Happened to be wondering around a large apartment complex party, when we found a flash-off occuring. Each balancy tried to one up the other... :smokin

  7. It's sad, when I get dragged to the Val's "Grand Buffet", I eat the tacos. ;)

    Dude, thats heresy. I'd kill for some Val's pizza and lasange about now.

    :box

     

    Can't say I've had the lasagna. The pizza tastes better when it's been sitting out for about an hour or so. Someone also mentioned Big Fred's. That place used to be good, but it seems like their pizza has gone way downhill.

  8. Ok, I'd die for Vals ... but ... Zio's, in Omaha, is REALLY good too.

    Yes, Zio's does rock. Although it is a different style of pizza.

    Zio's is ok. They have a decent lunch deal at the Old Market location, 2 pieces and a pop for under $5. I like Bernies... it's a whole in the wall in Millard.

  9. There used to be a Mexican resteraunt called La Fonda on Center St near Office Depot. Now this has been a few years ago, so I don't know if it is still there. I remember it being pretty good at the time.

    It's still there. Tucked in near the dollar store that used to be KMart.

  10. I guess I'm the most American so far. I scored a whopping 87% (I think my acceptance of you frenchies and hippies dropped my score a bit! ;) ) and go the same description as BigRedJake

     

    You're as American as red meat and shooting ranges.

    Tough and independent, you think big.

    You love everything about the US, wrong or right.

    And anyone who criticizes your home better not do it in front of you!

  11. I've heard Azteca (near I-80 and Highway 50) is pretty good, never been there myself though. My favorite is actually a run down place called Netties in Bellevue. I don't think they take credit cards, but I like their food. Fernando's on 114th and Dodge isn't to bad either.

  12. ok, benson and brown have not signed yet? should have thought of that before I thought about watching the game...this may be a very boring game to watch...

    Most of the NFL preseason is, but it satisfies the football addict in us until the real stuff comes along. :smokin

  13. I would say something, but I think all of the nebraksa faithful would hang me on a cross and burn me as a witch or something, so I think I will keep my mouth shut.

    We only do that for extreme cases. 4.gif

     

    ;)

  14. I love the Fairbury Dogs.

     

    Never did like Runza sandwhiches or overstuffed sandwhiches, whatever they call it now.

     

    I do love Runza's burgers, however. :worship

    Yeah, I don't know why they changed the name of their signature food??

     

    I LOVE the Italian Runza. The swiss cheese mushroom burger is perhaps the best burger I've ever had. I also love their onion rings.
