Husker Z

All of a sudden the secondary is a big fat question mark! sh**ty way to start a week!

Too much smoke at this point. Dennard took his tweets down, but I see him telling a few people to text him and he'll fill them in.

Threads getting deleted right and left over at Husker Online, doesn't sound/look good.

He was a WR at Cincy and he was Mr. Ohio his senior season in Football. He was a quality football player, so who knows.

Okay, I think this cleared it up for me now. I wasn't sure who went where, but now I'm good. I guess I'll just keep my stuff on HI.com, or now HuskerOnline.com. I like John, Sean and the guys. The biggest drawback from that though is the fact that Yahoo and Rivals are WAY behind the times as far as their website goes. Their message board format is sh#t and the fact that you get a virus from RSS about once a month is also a pain in the ass. I wish John and the guys would have gone to 247Sports.com

The latest I've heard is that Arizona has told he and Boras that he won't drop below #3 in the draft...

I met one of the lead designers at a function here in KC a month ago or so and we talked a bit about it. I guess UNL took the biggest, baddest, most expensive option they laid out for them and wanted more. According to this guy, it's going to be a few steps above top notch! I was pretty excited to hear it!

'10 B12 Champ Game. For one thing, I was there, so it would have made the trip even that much sweeter than it was. And, winning the conference as we head off to the Big 10 would have been so kick ass, that and the rest of the B12 would have been SO pissed.

The NU/IU history is pretty interesting if you dive into it. I have that Husker Football Histor coffee table book and it's pretty cool on how things got started with them. It's a cool book, pick it up if you get a chance.

Turner walked through our tailgate at the B12 Championship game last year and everyone is correct, he needs to beef up if he's going to be a QB in this new offense, but most Frosh do.

I don't care what he is listed at. He's closer to 170 than 200. My fault, I was talking about Carnes, not Turner, sorry 'bout that.

Turner is over 200 lbs, which as a true Frosh, that's a good start, if you ask me.

That's what I'm always telling my wife!

That's what I like about where I THINK this offense is headed. Similar to when Beck was at KU, they focused on getting their playmakers the ball, in space and let them make plays. If you have a team with speed like it appears we do, get these guys the ball and let them make plays with their feet. Get them in one on one situations and see what they can do.

Yeah, I would imagine there is plenty of time for that. He will miss spring ball, but should be able to get to Lincoln to participate in summer workouts and stuff. Hopefully this kid works as hard on the field as he did taking these tests, kid was pretty determined to get the score he needed in order to NOT have to go the JUCO route. Good for him.

Hopefully the NCAA Clearinghouse doesn't F us over like they've done in the past, but it sounds like Braylon Heard finally got the score he needed and will be able to join the team come fall. Much needed depth at the RB position, if he's as good as people think.

I saw that he posted on Facebook this morning that he was at 202. Then, some chick said he was still a sting bean and said that she could bench more than him, which cracked me up. Anyway, there is your Facebook stalk of the day!

Here was the article about it being on NFL Network. 2007 Spring Game

They did it the one year, 2007, and BC came up to the booth and called plays. It was a pretty cool insight into how quickly you have to manage the game and get plays down to the guys. It only increased my desire to become an OC when I grow up.

I'm going to go out on a limb on this one and put the chance of that happening right at 0%.

link? John Talman reported it on RSS, can't link it, premium content.

By the way, just saw where Bo has talked to Jackson and everything is cool with both of them. Bo told him that everything happened very quickly and the Sanders resignation kind of came out of left field. So, I guess we can all rest easy, Jackson isn't pissed at Bo.

That's my thought as well. I hate losing Marvin, he's a great coach, but I sure am glad Bo is still here and his background is in the secondary.

Keep in mind that Raymond is no scrub coach. I have been doing a lot of reading up on this guy. Apparently he has a lot of ties in SEC country. Especially down in Florida. Take it for what it's worth. And that Bo is an EXCELLENT secondary coach as well, that's kind of his background. Marvin is an awesome coach, but I don't expect a huge dropoff without him. I really don't either. I just think we got comfortable/used to Sanders coaching our DB's and doing a really good job at it! Totally agree and not looking forward to the "Sky is Falling" on this one though!
