  1. I don't think they were comparing him to the AP of now. I think it was more of a comparison to him coming out of high school and early on at OU. There is obviously not another back on the planet that can play the way Peterson does. If Taylor turns out to be anything like the Peterson that OU had I will be very happy
  2. For some reason the first DB i can remember watching and thinking was good is Keyou Craver and Fabian. Not sure why I cant remember how good others were before them. Possibly because I was 8 when we won our last title.
  3. Not sure what the actual spray itself is but from everything I have heard it contains an HGH alternative. Basically the same thing as HGH but whatever is in the spray is untestable is what I understand. And I would assume you would just spray it on the area needed and rub it into the muscle but i could be wrong on that.

  5. BC did everything he could to try and make his own tradition here and failed miserably in doing so. Now i wouldn't say I have forgave him but I guess the best way to say it is that I'm over it. Now having said that there is no way I will forget the Callahan years. I can remember sitting at a football game for my JUCO in Kansas when the announced over the loud speaker that we beat Ball St. by 1. I caught more crap from the game from KU and K-state fans than I did most loses. Very hard times thats for sure.
  6. In past seasons I think a big reason why Tiger played so well is because he got off to a good start at Torrey Pines. Him playing well and winning there seems to give him a nice confidence boost for the rest of the year. Just seems more confident and more in control of his swing and overall game this year than in years past.
  7. I know he plays WR for Prep but do you know where we would want him at other than WR if he were to end up a husker?
  8. I see what you're saying. If i was a kid and didn't have an offer from Bama, LSU, UGA, Florida or USCe I wouldn't want to stick around the SEC. Those teams have been dominating the conference lately except for Auburns paid for title. Other teams in the SEC are trying to play catch up just like the rest of the nation is.
  9. Absolutely. They'd be silly not to. Think about the clout the SEC has right now. They've had multiple national title winners in the past decade, not to mention having at least a couple schools in the BCS Bowls almost every year, it's tough to discount what they've got to sell recruits... I was looking at from a school not in the SEC. Selling recruits on the chance to be on the team to take down the SEC. But yes i definitely agree with what you're saying.
  10. Thats on the money... I think though, the B1G can get back to being a force, but it's going to take a couple years, and it'll will be better for college football as a whole. I think that "the powers that be" would like to have 4 dominant conferences (SEC, PAC-12, B1G, and Big XII or ACC, so that when it expands the playoff system, they can have a better formula... I agree with that. I believe we'll ultimately be in superconference mode, and the B1G appears to be spearheading that movement. I also agree that it will take awhile for the B1G to be a force. I'm a firm believer in athletics being cyclical. The SEC just has a good collection of coaching and talent right now, but it won't always be like that. Furthermore, I think if Nebraska had had any semblance of a consistent, good defense this last year, we would have been BCS and even possible title contenders. Even a defense like our '10 defense, which wasn't as good as '09, but still respectable, would have made us a force. We're just having problems fitting all the right pieces together at the right time. Do you think coaches are using how dominant the SEC is as a recruiting tool possibly? Telling them things like 'How would you like to be on the team that takes down the mighty SEC' etc. Not sure if this is happening but it was a thought i had.
  11. I think this would be a good pickup for the Chiefs. Not sure how Moeaki will pan out (my favorite chief). They could always use a target that can stretch the middle of the field. Other than a QB I think thats all the offense is missing and Kyler would be a good target for them.
  12. no way burkhead goes that high coming off a injury and because there is just so many good running backs available in the draft guys like Morris for the redskins was a 6th rounder and since its more of a passing leage now not very many RB's go as early as they used to if he gets drated he'll be a second day guy If this happens it means he either went in the 2nd or 3rd round. Now i don't see Rex going that high but I think he gets drafted. I look at him as a danny woodhead but only better. And since it is a passing league now teams look for backs who they can split out and can catch the ball and i definitely think Rex can do that at the next level.
  13. Now i am in no way shape or form a recruiting guru but i think this could be accomplished by simply seeing who graduates from the roster each year. That will give you a general idea of what is needed each class.
  14. Looking for a good italian food place in omaha. Any ideas?

      Pasta Amore e Fantasia-- 108th and center--small little hole in the wall but it is solid. They had a pumpkin filled ravioli that was awesome! Cant go wrong with Grisantis tomato soup.

  15. Agreed. Now i was a pitcher in college and look at it differently than too many HR will slow the game down. Having had my fair share of line drives come screaming back at me wood bats are the way to go. You will hear people say that a barrel coming back at you is more dangerous than a ball. True, but as a high school or college pitcher if you don't have the reaction time/coordination skills needed to get out of the way of half a bat you sure as hell won't get out of the way when a line drive is drilled back at you. Wood bats are the way to go.
  16. Agree with this one. Watched his film the other day and is an athletic kid. Not sure what his best role will be in the offense though.
  17. QMany that may be one of the best gifs i've seen. Pure gold with that one
  18. The thing I think will help us most is we can offer him early playing time. A lot of kids now days want to step on campus and make an impact and this kid could definitely help us from day one.
  19. I just do not see how going to play for Kentucky can be better than playing for NU. Obviously there is some bias on this feeling but do kids not notice how many players from the secondary NU and this staff have put in the NFL the last few draft classes? I don't understand this one bit.
  20. Boaz would be a nice addition but I thought he was visiting Louisville this weekend? And someone help me out here but was it Priest and his parents that had very good things to say after TJ's in home visits with them?
  21. I think i like the 3rd walleye one better. Not sure what it is about it that makes it better. Just seems to look better. Being new around this place and not very computer savy with this kind of thing would there be any way to get you to make me one of those HuskerHacker?
  22. I believe RJ Urzendowski from creighton prep will be in lincoln this weekend. 2014 WR said he would be in lincoln this weekend.
  23. Not sure if there is a thread with all the walk-on recruits for this class. I know there have been some kids who have accepted preferred walk-on spots and i just figured this could be a place to keep track of them all. Hopefully the recruiting buffs can help out.
  24. Rivals.com Midwest analyst Josh Helmholdt said: "Physically, there were few linebackers who looked better than Banderas down at the U.S. Army All-American Bowl in San Antonio this month. He has the size and the speed college coaches covet at the linebacker position, but we were also impressed with how Banderas threw himself into special teams during the Army Bowl week. He took as much pride in running down on kickoffs as he did calling the defense, and he was one of the top special teams performers on the week. Overall, there are very few weaknesses in Banderas' game." Just found this paragraph discussing Banderas in the new free article on rivals.

  25. Agreed about mike and mike. Just got a little annoying during the season with golic being on there having to listen to him go on and on about notre dame. Other than that i think there are good discussions on that show.
