Yeah, I would imagine you might get the old "Of course I will be there" and then of course they do not show up.

 

The motivation to make crazy tips seems like it would help BUT they will make that during the day/night too.

Yeah I was wondering that too if the chance for big tips would draw some in. If you worked Friday night and got out at 2 or 3am though it would be hard regardless to make it the next day at 6am possibly still drunk from the night before.

See...I would make it a big deal

 

"We OPEN at 5:59am on Game Day...first beer sold at 6am!"

Having worked in the industry for a long time, good luck finding a bartender that is gonna wake up at that time. Even before 10am is a stretch.

Yeah I believe you. I just couldn't pass up a Decked is always wrong joke.

He is gonna commit to Missouri. 

Oh nice he will be a great pickup for Nebraska. 

Ok that region would be perfect and also hilarious how close it would be to us just being back in the big 12.

So that INT would have been from Kaelin and the 3rd down completion would have likely been for Raiola.

They didn't change, they moved quickly in an effort to avoid having an extended egg on the face situation (like the Callahan hiring way back when). They went with the close hire in Gold, who had already been a utility player in the system. And then hired an AD so desperate to leave the West Coast that he jumped at the opportunity six months after taking the job at Washington. He might end up proving to be a great hire and I'm hoping he can do a good job. But it is pretty evident that our program was stronger with Trev at the helm. 

I don't think they changed completely obviously but the pres hire seems like one Trev would have been good with. Maybe not though.

So it sounds like they weren't doing it before that. I wouldn't trust them to all of the sudden change out of desperation. Luckily for us it sounds like they did.

The people that think he wanted to move from Nebraska to Texas to get away from conservatives is an amazing take...

The conservatives in Texas aren't trying to take control of the Universities. Think about for a second that these people are dumber than Texas politicians and that should tell you all you need to know.

Yes…and the governor. 
 

there needs to be some serious soul searching with Nebraskans. 
 

Fugg. 

I mean he probably isn't as hands on in the universities but going to Texas isn't and upgrade in governor. Texas governor is one of the worst people imaginable.

I’m not sure that Lenhardt is truly considered an edge. It’s hard to define an “EDGE” anymore, so not saying you’re wrong. 
 

He should have graded out close to the top of whatever they consider his position to be for freshman.

 

 

EDIT- looks like he is listed as an EDGE in PFF, shows what I know. 

Yeah I even questioned it a little myself but I distinctly remember his rushing from outside the tackle at some points last season.

I wonder how close Lendhart is to being on this list.

PasstheDamnBallGuy...you love their offense, don't you, sir?!  Haha.

Lions just finally stopped screwing around and made good hires. Their GM has been making great picks, Dan Campbell created a great culture, and their OC is so damn good.

Did I miss the part where Nebraska has a WR this year that is going to be catching 50+ yard touchdown passes in NFL playoff games next year?

You mean last year we didn't have that. This year we are gonna have two

How did Glenn Thomas offense fair at Arizona State? I ask bc I know Herm Edward's got fired but was the offense the problem or something else (NCAA violations, defense)?

Offensive rank was not great but better than we were this year. He had to split the year with 2 QBs each playing about half the games and both had better years with him than without. They set a school record that year for completion percentage. Their RB had 1192 yards 16 TDs and 5.5 ypc.  Nothing mind blowing but it was one year and who knows what kind of talent they had. I do remember watching some ASU games from that year when Thomas was rumored to be the OC hire and they ran some interesting routes that looked effective.

That would be an interesting fit.

Yeah seems like a strange one to me but if I was a school looking right now he would have to be near or at the top of my list. 

The odds on Deboer seemed to jump pretty high after Lanning said he was staying. I dont really see him as an Alabama guy but that would be a good get for them. 

Oh man getting Banks is huge. Neyor is a risk with a very high ceiling but its nice to have someone who is more likely to pan out. If they both work out and Dylan is as good with the deep ball as everyone thinks, its gonna get real exciting here.

Wait so players do read message boards and take our suggestions!!

Well not to keep this game going but saw a stat about Michigan that related to Minnesota so I went back to look at their schedules and they were actually playing vs high school teams back then. Minnesota's first claimed titled they opened with a high school and also played a game vs a boarding school so high school aged kids.

Earliest is "middle of the week".  Latest is "end of the week".

Is there some kind of dead period starting Monday though?

Holgorsen would be a cool addition as an analyst for one year and if we make an OC change next year he's right there at the top of the list.
