    There's been a few claims of Tressel being spotted in or around Lincoln yesterday.

    My question....

    With all the press coming out of Lincoln and Husker fanatics "stalkers" lurking around every corner with camera phones why no pictures?

    No pictures, no autographs, nobody that had an actual conversation with the guy, no pictures of the plane, was nobody else on that plane? No airport staff talking about seeing him....etc.

    A lot of different sources claim to have spotted him but I've currently seen zero physical evidence he was actually here.

    I am pulling for it to be true but I'd love to see a lot more smoke right now.

    It's like seal team 6 escorted him in and out of Lincoln or something.

    I didn't see the local news...

    Did anybody get double tapped in Lincoln yesterday?

     

     

    We have as many photos of Tressel in town yesterday as we have BCS wins under Bo. Maybe we should fire the rumor-mongers.

    Photo seems legit to me.
  2. Black uniforms for a day game in a month where noon temps routinely hit the mid to upper 80s. Not sure I like that idea.

     

    But....But.... BLACK! MATTE! Alternate! Uh....uh.... Recruits like it! Yeah that's it! It'll be sweeeeeet! Words!

     

    They actually do. I was talking to a 4-star LB down in KC a couple weeks ago and I specifically asked him about this alternate uniform stuff. He said he, personally, couldn't care less, but he knows a ton of guys being recruited right now who really care. It helps them make a decision on a school.

     

    Weird.

    This absolutely blows my mind. To me this is the problem with a lot of programs/players right now. They are more worried about the way the look, and is nothing but a distraction. I'd be more worried about the training programs, facilities, and oh yea..... I guess their education programs as well.

  3. Believe it or not, all of us playing were PGA members and it only cost us $50 at each place. But it was awesome. I had heard horror stories about Dismal, but it was an awesome golf course. Prairie club is worth it too. I have heard the Pines (a Graham Marsh coruse) is way better than the Dunes (a Tom Lehman course).

     

    Where do you work?

    -The member who closest predicts the Husker rushing yards (it doesn't matter if the prediction is over or under), if there is still a tie, then...

    -Whichever member posted the first correct score in the contest.

    -One submission per person -- IP addresses will be cross-checked -- if multiple entries are submitted by the same person using different user-names, they will be permanently disqualified from all future contests.

  5. Time to set the recorder. I would assume that the welcome segment is the same each time, correct?

    Nope, they play evrything at different times, so everyone gets to see them. Just type Nebraska into your dvr and search them all out on the first day they air and record. Otherwise you will really have to search and it will take days of different times to record it all. For people with out dvr's they air things all the time, you get to see alot, no matter what time of the day you want to watch B10 sports. Problem I see is they do cover other B10 sports as well and Nebraska seems to be more football focused, so you do have to watch some stuff that's not nebraska but..... it's pretty good. They are very good at showing what a program is all about. From games to traditions to best of, ect.

     

     

    I think you misunderstood the question. He's asking if the welcome segment is the same program repeated, or if the content of the show itself changes with each new playing. I think :P

    Ah yes, in that case I am sure it will be.

     

    I was just going to let it slip through the cracks. :)

  6. There is nothing "wrong" with including players that never played in the B1G, nor is it disrespecting anyone else. I'm sure that the B1G is going to love to include the Nation Championships and Heismans that we bring to the table. The Network has to include it for obvious reasons (stated above), but they could solve the problem/argument completely with an asterisk. Nebraska is kind of in no-mans-land right now as far as a conference home is concerned. I'm just glad that the B1G is including us. I can assure you that if a B1G player was truly upset over missing this list, Ruud would have no issues with giving his spot up. This is strictly a "fan conflict" with no real good answer to choose from.

  7. It is entertaining until it is the school you like. As a Buckeye fan, it is like a horror movie. It doesn't matter the school...someone is doing something against NCAA rules. You just don't know how deep the rabbit hole goes.

     

    True. If it's any solace, nobody is going to confuse OSU with Texas anytime soon. Yes, the Buckeyes got caught in shenanigans, but unless decades of such malfeasance suddenly see the light of day, nobody is going to equate a few years of very poor decisions with the culture of corruption that permeates all things Longhorn.

     

    One of the reasons this OSU story is making such massive headlines is that nobody expects it of you guys. Everyone thinks of OSU as "the good guys." Hell, people are shocked if there aren't violations at Texas every few years.

    Agreed. texa$$ was born and bred in the most corrupt conference in the history of the NCAA, yet their fans act like they are cleaner than a preacher's sheets.

     

    In reality, UTerus is the one school that doesn't need any advantage.

     

    Texas is far from "clean", but at the same time I don't have issues with most of the infractions that are coming out. I have no issue with someone buying dinner for a player or taking them on a hunting trip, but do have issues with providing them a car, home, or cash. I live in Austin and have had access to what the NCAA calls infractions, but at the same time I don't have a problem with the "situations" I've come across.

     

    I think if these infractions were taking place with recruits as apposed to current players, I may see it otherwise.
