So does anyone actually know this to be true yet or is it still in the unknown, hysteria stage?

thinking of turning on 18 days by saving abel to celebrate this moment

Alex Henery. Nuff said.

oh and just to beat OWAtch:

You know who impressed me in that vid was Marken Michel. I don't know anything about him, and I doubt we're after him, but that kid looks FLUID! Is what I'm hearing accurate? No, I mean NOW!!! Um... what are you hearing?

I think why we finally believe we are back is cause our Bo Pelini said we are back. We've seen what he has done with this team so we believe we are gonna continue to improve. Not take a step back. Otherwise i agree with Suh_fan93: Cautiously Optimistic

ronsss, you gotta believe man. Here i prescribe you take some of this. Take it an hour after you eat three times a day and once when you wake up and once more before you go to bed. Repeat for roughly the next six months and you will be healed.

Agreed Cut the guy some slack. Yeah, he struggled. But he was a true freshmen who was barely 18 years old. Give him some time. He might be good , he might not, don't throw him under the bus after only two starts.

His star rating seems low for his offer list. Not that stars matter but still.........

Typical for them. If they dont get him, they "didnt want him." Hows that for a Big Ten team to land 3 of the Texas top 25? Haha, EZ-E you seem a little annoyed with the notion that big ten teams cant recruit texas. But yeah, good point it would be funny.

i am seriously hoping you forgot this

huh.... odd

Also, just to let anyone who is comparing our class with our future Big Ten counterparts, Ohio State is ranked as having the #2 class just behind... Guess who? Texass

Just saw on the front page of scout that Nebraska has the the #12 class in the nation according to them. This must have been posted or done before they upgraded Tevin Mitchel to a four star cause their evaluation says we have only 5 4-stars, but with Mitchel being upgraded we now have 6 4-star prospects. If anyone who knows how to link it wants to that'd be great cause i don't know how. Also, does anyone now when rivals Team rankings come out?

At first glance you might ask why this is in the recruiting section. Well that's because most recruits around the country still see us and believe we are a running/option team (luckily i think the BTN will help us shake that stigma). obviously this seems to turn off wide reciver recruits, but if paul could get 1,000 yards and maybe be an early second round or late first round pick that could really help, becaue we all know he has the measurables and the talent, he just needs to put it all together. The early love from the scouts could help. Now Niles just needs to help himself and stop taking a leak in the middle of busy intersections.

I honestly believe Green won't pull the trigger simply because the fact that deep down he is still somewhat a fan of Texas. He probably grew up watching them and liking them. I think he knows Nebraska is the right place for him and i believe he wants to come here but Texas might have always been a big love of his. I dont think Cal or FSU has a snowball's chance in Hell to be honest. I think they are just their so he can have a top four. Idk thats just what it seems to me. But here's to hoping: EDIT: So okay my theory was wrong i looked back into the onld pages and USC was his childhood favorite, not texas

My 2 cents: Make 'em try it once, Let 'em play but don't make 'em play. (but at least have them finish out the year) I have seven siblings, and each one of us is very different. My two older brothers are a perfect picture of different. My oldest brother is a ultra-competetive, athletic, crazy guy who would like to rip your head off. He loved football and still tries to play for a local team. (idk the name)The other brother likes sports also, but not nearly as much. He' s very athletic also but he is not competetive. And he never had a killer instinct so football was awful for him. Then comes me. I'm in between both of them. I am decently athletic and somewhat competetive but i would rather watch a sport than play it organized. (pick up games are amazing and i would play them anytime) But nonetheless for a plethora of reasons i had played football from 3rd grade to my junior year (last year). But now after almost three years of hating football i have decided not to go back out for my senior year (and i was the starting QB last year just to show i'm not quitting because i don't play) because i have always played for fun and its no fun anymore. So my advice is is to have a kid at least give it a shot (my parents had me try football, basketball, baseball, soccer, wrestling...etc) and then let them choose what they love (this year all i'm playing is soccer, cause i love it) let them work for it and always make them finish out the season, and then if they don't want to play again, don't make them go back out.

clone=Troll (closest thing to a troll emoticon)

but at the same time i think we will also be out to get teams in the Big XII (try to beat everyone one last time) Bri9ng it on Big 12-2

or maybe he's done this a bit too much

I'd take notre dame, they have a top tier program and I absolutely hate em. Problem is that we don't no if theyll join the big10 especially with all all the super conference talk dying, and they'd need to improve their current level of play. IV said it once and I'll say it again, if we do get a top main rival, it should b Penn state, but we don't need a rival either so we shouldn't force a rivalry- especially with lesser prestige iowa A PSU v Nebraska rivalry would probably sit pretty well with a lot of folks (like me) that were around in '94. To the younger guys (and current student body) it may not mean as much. While I'm thrilled to have Nebraska in the Big Ten (it just seems like a great fit when you say it), I do not have a lot of love for Nebraska as a result of '94. Clearly, what happened is the fault of nobody on here and nobody that was around at the time. But rivalries are often built on emotion that have no rational basis. I respect the program. And separating the academics out of the equation, you guys clearly have a University to be proud of. But putting football into equation...yeah, I'm all for slamming you when the honeymoon is over. I really agree with this. i dont really know what went on in '94, but i do remember in 2002 when we went to happy valley when Penn state had Larry Johnson and i just remember how awful it seemed like the fans were to us that game. Cause if i remember right i think you guys were mad at Richie Incognito (correct me if i'm wrong but i believe that was the game he threw a punch). So i think it would be a great rivalry based off of the rspect we seem to have for each others programs and also the tiny seeds of hatred that also seem to be present. Here's to hoping: Well, the 2002 match up came 8 years after 1994. It's possible that a lot of pent up anger was being vented at Nebraska during that game. Here's the short primer on 1994: http://www.collegian.psu.edu/blogs/footblog/2010/06/1994_husker_heist.aspx After we thrashed Ohio State 63-14 (I think it was 21-0 after the first 6 minutes or so) we actually dropped to #2. The NC was decidec by people filling out a ballot. Not Nebraska's fault, but a lot of anger. Oh gotcha. I can definately understand that. I also agree with Jtrain, while i wouldn't mand being rivals with iowa, i think a penn state-nebraska rivalry would be much more interesting.

Or maybe i should ask this: is there anything you wanted to see happen for Nebraska that didn't happen?
