AZRaiderH8r Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 Wow, this thread is exhausting. I do appreciate the commitment to making the same point, over and over and over again though. Gotta respect the dedication! Just for clarification though, is Nike better than Adidas? 2 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment

Matt Rhule is proven. His offensive staff is not. His QB is not. Love the defensive staff. I truly believe this program will not return to glory without taking the current blueprint to win titles (Money out the wazoo). We didn’t spend anything compared to top programs this year on staff, recruits, etc You make some interesting points, but the larger question remains..........how do you clone Dion? (IF you agree with my premise that HE would NOT come here) 1 Quote Link to comment

unl7fan Posted September 12, 2023 Author Share Posted September 12, 2023 Our Head coach and OC selected these stats to help turn around a program with turnover/mental issues Quote Link to comment
unl7fan Posted September 12, 2023 Author Share Posted September 12, 2023 Stats from the Starting QB of a title team (Not even close to the best QB last year, light years better than Sims) Quote Link to comment
RedDenver Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 Whatever Nike is paying you, it's way too much. You've definitely sold me that Nike has the more annoying spammers. 1 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment

huskerfan74 Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 May be the reason why we will not return to glory is because fans blame adidas instead of admitting that our ADs continue to choose the wrong coaches for the job. Or just may be because we fired two 9-win coaches? Just spitballing. 2 Quote Link to comment

And the Adidas contract and political inbreeding around the program (see Matt Davison’s fall from being Frost’s beer b****/deflector shield to UIL pimp) for good measure. It *can* be more than just one thing… 1 Quote Link to comment

How did he think Bennet would even be a good QB after stats like that!!! 2 1 Quote Link to comment

It *can* be more than just one thing… Absolutely. And "political inbreeding" strips the thing bare for what it is. Quality phrase for this discussion. Caveat for me though is that I'm not so sure the AD could get away with "choosing the wrong coaches" on his own. I admit to being unenlightened with regard to the true "behind the scenes" processes as a coach is sought and vetted and then approved by all who need to do that, but if Riley, for instance, was a survivor of all that, strangely anemic coach that he was, then perhaps the hiring system needs a committee of players, current and past (from successful Husker teams) to give input. Looking back over the past coaching regimes here I'd say that committee would have not allowed Pelini or Solich to be removed but would have advised to learn to get along with them as coaches can be weird and high strung etc as they produce 9 win seasons (Dr. Tom aside). 1 Quote Link to comment

He was also a walk-on so Kirby didn’t have to do s#!t to get him Quote Link to comment

Adidas is a sign of old, Nike is always adapting, adidas does the same old boring s#!t. We have had head coaches that were fine, but there are always holes in the quality of assistants. They hire friends instead of the best out there. FWIW People would laugh at you if you wore adidas gear with Jordan’s or Dunks outside of the middle of the country. Whole different world where the best recruits live. Quote Link to comment
