  1. https://huskercorner.com/posts/nebraska-football-casey-thompson-reunion-soon I wouldn't hate it if this actually happens... Thompson would've been a decent upgrade over any of our QBs this year. Could this mean HH going back to TE?
  2. I really hope this works out of for nothing more than to see some of the Georgia fans melt down. I'm seeing a bunch of them huffing the copium on Facebook and it's hilarious.
  3. Given what we have at QB, I think the starting job is Raiola's to lose if he commits here. As you said, Purdy has shown some flashes, but I haven't seen anything from him that suggests that an elite QB coming out of HS couldn't play at his level, if not better. HH shouldn't be in the conversation as a starter, and Kaelin just doesn't look like a start-day-one kind of prospect. It's a scary thought trusting a true freshman to lead the offense right away, but it's less scary than rolling with what we have now in my opinion.
  4. You're right. We need to show our women's bowling team more love.
  5. That's exactly the issue with Haarberg. If he can't pass, then we're one-dimensional when he's in the game.
  6. "I Told an In-State Recruit We Just Wanted to Be Friends. AITA?"
  7. You can't just casually drop that bombshell on us like that. Ease us into it. Tell us we recruited a 2-star QB out of Hastings or something.
  8. My bad, the article was posted overnight but I should've checked the date of the tweet they referenced. It'll be interesting to see if we managed to sway him at all.
  9. Pete Nakos from On3 mentioned in an interview that McCord doesn't want to go to a lesser B1G school and is looking for a program that will prepare him for the NFL, which sounds to me like a roundabout way of saying that McCord has ruled Nebraska out.
  10. Nobody hates Jeff Sims or cares whether or not he's making money. I don't know where you're getting that idea from.
  11. I don't see an issue with wishing him well but also realizing that he's much less talented as a QB than we hoped he'd be. He seems like a great guy and solid athlete who isn't a good QB, but frankly, we've seen a lot of those over the years.
  12. Hutmacher and Robinson will be back next year. Tony White was a pleasant surprise. Hopefully we can find a way to hang onto him. Tommi Hill showed a ton of promise against Iowa. Emmitt Johnson looks like he can be a reliable RB (if they keep giving him the damn ball). Chubba Purdy needs some work on decision-making, but the kid can make some nice throws and can run when he commits to it. I still hope we find a better QB through recruiting or the portal, but I wouldn't feel awful if he were QB2. Last, but not least: even though Colorado beat us, we still finished with a better record.
  13. This team just doesn't know how to win. There's really no other way to put it. There is young talent on the team that did some great things today, but there's not enough to fill the gaps that we have. O line is inept at pass blocking and commits stupid penalties, WRs can't get open before the O line collapses, and our QBs don't protect the ball when it matters most (and two of them have zero passing ability). Alvano and Buschini are a liability more often than they're an asset. The transfer portal needs to be a priority in the off-season. Even if we have the best recruiting class since the '90s, we'll be in the same boat next year if we don't fill at least a few of the gaps through the portal. Football officiating is quite possibly the worst it's ever been. That's absolutely no excuse for the way Nebraska plays, but it's a fact.
  14. We get the honor of losing to a kicker we haven't even seen. That's Husker football in a nutshell.
  15. That's game. See you next year, Husker fans.
