  1. Eminem, Dr. Dre, Jay-Z are my go to on pandora. Donald Glover is newish and most of his songs are good. Lyrics to his songs make you sit there and think about what he just said.
  2. Not sure about all the other categories but my favorite sports character of all time is either Brigma from Rookie of the Year or Danny O'Shea from Little Giants. Yes i know kids movies. Don't care I watched those movies all the time in college and always good a good laugh out of those 2
  3. Never been to a hockey game in my life but saw this was happening and I'm considering going just to go. I'm sure it would be a fun event to attend. Wouldn't have a clue whats going on in the actual game though. You should go, it's tough to beat a Hockey game in person... THIS Being from Minny I love Hockey... Saw UNO/Michigan Tech over the weekend... wasnt horrible.. sadly I have plans on saturday(wedding class and Husker basketball) What time saturday do the games begin? I have nothing to do. And please tell me there will be alcohol served?
  4. I would hope so. I know when we practiced anything above 40 we were outside. Was a nice day to be out too
  5. Definitely a loaded non-conference schedule to open the year. Will really tell us a lot about the team this year. @HuskerHacker- what kind of talent/contribution do we have coming back from last years squad?

  7. I can understand getting a recruit like that late. But when a school hasn't signed a top 20 recruit from 2006-2012 and then all of a sudden they sign 3 in the matter of a couple hours it just makes things look very suspect. And yes I do realize Nkemdiche was predicted to go there due to his brother being there. i believe he was talking about Dixon. Going back through and reading he probably was. I just assumed he was referring to my post about the gif that needs to be in the Ole Miss or Treadwell discussion. I didn't know Dixon was 4-star on any sites. My mistake
  8. I definitely need to make it down for some games this year. Last Nebraska game I was at was the regional/super regional vs. Richmond. Being in Illinois for 3 years for college and playing baseball made it tough to make games. Time to re-dedicate myself.

  10. Terry Joseph is ballin!! Your gif belongs in an Ole Miss thread or in the Treadwell discussion
  11. Would be very surprised if nothing comes of this sanction wise. Too many good players signed to play there to not look into it. Saw a stat that from 06-12 Ole Miss didn't sign a single recruit inside the top 20. And we all know how their day is going so far.
  12. Sean Callahan ‏@Sean_Callahan Tre'vell Dixon signs with...Nebraksa. Yes Nebraksa. Wow. #huskers#RivalsNSD
  13. Am I the only one that is over this guy wanting to transfer? If you're not getting the playing time you want, then work harder and climb the depth chart. I think we have a couple guys coming in that are ready to do that (Newby, Taylor).... Nope. I was never on the Braylon Heard bandwagon. Agreed. Kid is talented but I think the way this offense is evolving that Abdullah is the better fit and is more talented in my opinion. With cross getting the short yardage carries apparently Heard didn't see where he fit in. If thats the case then so be it. We have a couple of potential very solid backs coming in. I don't think we will miss him that much.
  14. The sig is looking good thanks to you. I didn't realize how much renovation and upgrade has been taking place throughout the league baseball wise. Hopefully this will all pay off and the Big 10 can get to be known as a respectable baseball conference.
  15. And Ole Miss gets another big recruit. Something fishy is going on down there

      Nkemdiche makes sense agreed. But Treadwell and Tunsil just makes you wonder.

      I dont like the SEC but lets be honest.. that is where a big chunk of the talent is... Lets just let them give them all the hype and win football games.

       

  16. Thanks for posting that. I had a buddy tell me that a guy who is at practice every day said "Pitchford is the best player to come to Nebraska in 5 years" Take it for what its worth--this article says all the nice/coach speak type things... I honestly see pitchford/petteway/biggs all starting next year... maybe go really small and start Webster and Gallegos as well. Not sure what we do at the 4. I think Pitchford plays the 5(undersized) unless Vucetic somehow puts on 60 pounds. My assumption is this: 5- Pitchford/ Vucetic/Kurkowski 4- Shields/Rivers/Fuller 3- Petteway/Hawkins/Tyrance 2- Gallegos/Peltz/Richie 1- Biggs/Webster/Parker/Menke This changes if they add Attewe and Thomas or one or the other. I think if we get both Thomas and Attewe(drooling) We roll with this: 5- Pitchford/Attewe/Vucetic/Kurkowski 4- Thomas/ Rivers/Fuller 3- Petteway/Shields/Hawkins/Tyrance 2- Gallegos/Shields/Peltz/Richie 1- Biggs/Webster/Parker/Menke I think you see Fuller and Hawkins redshirt... possibly. Lots of tweeners... Attewe probably more of a 4... petteway more of a 4.. Shields is more of a 3--webster is a mix of 1/2. Few guys who get pushed out of playing time because of this: Parker, Peltz, Rivers Nah I have to disagree a little At the beginning of the year the starting lineup will be 1. Biggs or Webster (whoever wins out) most likely Biggs because he has the experience 2. Ray with the loser of Biggs/Webster matchup being the 6th kman 3. Pettaway getting the big minutes.. Rivers will get time between 3 and 4 4. Shields.. Money in the bank with that one with Rivers plays a key role here, 5. Honestly up in the air, depends what kind of lineup we go with but Vucetic will start it out. I dont get how you can say Vucetic will start? The kid hasnt seen any time this year... Honestly him and Kurkowski look like the same type of player. Just because of the offense we play. If we want fast paced offense like what Indiana runs I can see Pitchford starting but if we run the offense that Wisconsin run, which we have been doing we will most likely be playing a bruiser in Vucetic. In all honesty I hope it is Pitchford because I like his tempo more but I just am not sure what we will do. I think we do this mostly to limit possessions and keep the game closer. Currently this roster does't have the athletes to get up and down the floor with teams in this conference. This could very well change though in the coming years if Miles gets some athletes.
  17. If we get any of those two schools it should be a hell of a difference in the Big Ten. Would make a huge difference in how baseball is looked at by the Big 10 for sure. Would be one hell of a challenge to win the conference for a few years for teams besides UVA and UNC though. Those teams are on a whole different level than anyone in the conference right now. Exactly, it will make the other teams in the conference have to pay attention to baseball. Obviously it would take a few years to catch those teams but I think it could be done. Nebraska is obviously the place it would be easiest to accomplish. We already have kids would want for a college. Facilities are top notch, fan support is great, and you would think playing for Erstad, who knows what it takes to be a good player both in college and the pros, would be very beneficial. The BIg 10 can be a good baseball conference if it would just invest the money to do so. Many major league markets are in the Big 10 footprint. Just invest the money and things will change.

  19. Very smart on their part. Especially the baseball side of it. Would be tough to do early in the year due to weather but Wrigley would be a perfect spot for a college baseball tournament. And if Nebraska happens to have a football game there you can bet I will find a way to be inside Wrigley for that game.
  20. This place will be crazy until NSD is over. Sooo many rumors and possibilities. How much longer til actual games are played?

      It is exciting. I feel it is all a good excitement. Where in the past, I was worried about certain signatures actually coming through. Making moves.

      Couldn't agree more Qmany. Surprisingly Dixon switching (possibly) doesn't seem like a huge deal. Everyone is waiting on pins and needles for that big surprise

  21. When I heard the announcers mention this I had no idea it was a rule. I don't really get the point of it. Guess you learn something new everyday.
  22. Was Kris Brown the kicker for the seahawks or am i imagining that? If he was it could be him
  23. That would make things interesting. Get it up there when the Tundra is really Frozen. Lambeau Field is heated. This is true. But that doesn't make it any warmer on the fans and I'm sure the players are still gonna be cold too.
  24. Haven't watched many games but I did not realize how quick Parker was with the ball. Kind of reminds me of a poor mans Ty Lawson
  25. finally get to tune in to a full Husker bball game..lets see what this team is all about.. and not expecting a win
