heywhohelu Posted January 1, 2009 Author Share Posted January 1, 2009 Honestly if you are going to say Paul played poorly, then you would have to say the same for Ganz, 2 of his mistakes lead straight to 14 of Clemson's 21 points, but Ganz stuck to it and ended up playing well. On the other hand Paul had little chances to make his situation better plus some of Ganz's throws to him were off target. Paul will be a key reciever next year. Big, big difference comparing a QB to a WR. It's even pretty silly to compare the two. You take Paul out of this game, who notices? Besides the fact we get numerous silly penalties taken away. You take Ganz out of this game, we get blown out. totally agree...u cannot compare the two..ganz is a proven leader.. Quote Link to comment
huskerswrkhavoc Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 how about pointing out that Swift dropped a pass that would of given us a 1st down possibly a TD and instead we have to settle for a field goal? wait, wouldn't want to say that though. kid will be good. Quote Link to comment
KansasHusker Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 I'm a big Paul fan. I think he has a lot of potential...he has a lot of speed, but I don't think he knows how to use his speed properly. His vision is definitely suspect. Hopefully by next he has it all figured out, because he has the makings to be a dangerous player. He's got a lot of experience now...its just a matter of working out all the kinks.

NoLongerN Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 My confidence in him was shaken for sure ... I didn't want him near the ball at the end. Hopefully, with good coaching ... he can get his head out of his butt and play some football. SheepdogMark Quote Link to comment
Axl_sued_me Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 He had a sh**ty game.. he will end up a gamer.. More like a sh**ty year if you think about it. Quote Link to comment
Vince from ShamWOW Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Sure, because he's the only player who ever had a bad game. Swift never dropped a punt or pass, ever. Suh looked like a lost cause last year, now he's one of the best d-lineman in the country. Have faith and support Huskers till the end. You can be honest and realistic, and still support The Huskers. In other words, Sunshine Pumping is not only wrong, it sucks. Real fans don't Sunshine Pump.. Quote Link to comment
macroboy Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Did the original post get editted? I saw nothing about pulling a scholly. In the OP's defence I thought Paul was awful today. I was hoping they'd bench him. Quote Link to comment

Are you honest and realistic about the shortcomings of your own life? Do you want it posted on a message board? I love how if someone is positive and doesn't want to bash people for making a mistake when he was just trying to win a game for his team then he must have been a Callahan supporter Quote Link to comment

We as fans pour money into a program so guys like Niles can have a free education. Not only that, but travel to all parts of the country, get free gear, perks and everything else that comes with being an athlete. Do you go to a game? Do you buy Nebraska merchandise? Do you watch on TV? If you do, then you are responsible for any of these guys having the opportunity they do. I mean, if you do not want to be talked about, do not play. Just like when you play well, it will be good. But when you play bad, you get this as well. It's part of the territory. But I fully expect you to come back and jump up someones rear when something good is said as well. Or are we only allowed to point out the good and never the bad? Is that how this whole being a "fan" works? And I'm not jumping up Niles' butt over this game either. He did play one of the worst games by a Nebraska player in recent memory. I fully expect him to bounce back. However, for the "effort" he gave today, he fully deserves the harsh criticism he will get. Fortunately for him, he has 1-2 more years to basically tell all his critics to shove it. Quote Link to comment
