Saint Boseph Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 I think as husker fans we can appreciate his play at NU. I however am not a big fan of him at Detroit. I don't think money changed him. I think because everyone crowned him as a ferocious player he felt the need to live up to that in the NFL. Not a fan of him at all anymore. I live up in NY where pro football reigns and all my NY buddies are surprised when I say vanden Bosch is my favorite player in the NFL, considering he plays on the same d-line and team as Suh. KVB embodies Nebraska way more than Suh any day of the week 1 Quote Link to comment
MLB 51 Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 dont mind account, most people have him on ignore anyways. He just likes thinking he is superior to others and has not problem trying to show it (see 3.5k post). Thankfully most husker fans arent as obtuse. A lot of Husker fans are now questioning what the hell Suh is thinking. I think he is a classy guy. Quote Link to comment
xkbubo Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 What is wrong with this guy, see a bit of money and he just decides to be an A$$. I don't recall him ever really acting a fool here at nebraska, was that just my rosy glasses?? go watch the video, it was not intentional.......... Quote Link to comment
Judoka Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 really? A lock, I am just wondering what everybody else thinks? i find it odd that you think the money is what changed his play style. not the change of coaches, teammates, that he probably gets more frustrated playing against nfl o-linemen than college. Probably frustrated that he's playing on such a horrible team. Quote Link to comment
Joe_5700 Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 There's no denying he's the all-time best player to come thru Nebraska IMO. What? He was an outstanding player for most of a single season... I would argue Wistrom was a far better player who played 4 solid years. Quote Link to comment

Moiraine Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 The level of denial in this thread is amusing. That being said, this could have gone into the Suh thread we already have. 1 Quote Link to comment

default_28 Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 I'm surprised by the split in opinion between the posters that think it was intentional and those who don't. I personally think he was trying to kick something (maybe not Shaub's go-nads, but something). You don't mule kick and expect to not to make contact. Quote Link to comment
Dagerow Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 I must be the only one, but I think Suh's "transformation" is largely due to his head coach. I think his coach wants him to be that way, and strongly encourages such behavior. He (coach) wants to get in their heads, and wants the defense (and Suh) to be feared. I think if started the nfl with another coach, it would be different. Quote Link to comment
Blackshirt39 Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 I find it funny that everyone is joining the lynch mob against Suh, yet nothing about the Cowboys DB that shoved Pierre Garcon into the wall after he was through the end zone. The Players Union needs to back him up a little bit for a change. Nobody can be play comfortably under a microscope. Quote Link to comment
Husker no ka oi Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 I must be the only one, but I think Suh's "transformation" is largely due to his head coach. I think his coach wants him to be that way, and strongly encourages such behavior. He (coach) wants to get in their heads, and wants the defense (and Suh) to be feared. I think if started the nfl with another coach, it would be different. The entire lions team is turning into a longest yard movie. Quote Link to comment
Fuzzy Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 No freaking way was that "kick" intentional. He's got a target painted on his back. I know it's his own fault that he is under constant scrutiny, but I don't see how anybody could watch the video of what happened against Houston and legitimately think that was intentional. I saw the video several times, at first, i never saw the kick. I saw Suh's foot hit him in the groin. But that is where i missed it, I was busy watching Suh's foot, that i didn't look at his leg. Suh's leg was fully extended when it hit Schaub, when it does hit him, Suh bends that leg slightly and then extends it again, hitting Schaub a second time. I can't say Suh meant to kick Schaub in the groin, but he does do a little kick. On the other side, Schaub should have gotten out of the way knowing that Suh was falling forward. And maybe he will do a better job at protecting his "boys" down there by wearing a cup. Quote Link to comment

EbylHusker Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 The kick looked deliberate to me. I doubt he was trying to ninja kick the guy's nuts, but he was definitely kicking. And unless he halucinates and sees ghosts to kick at, the QB was really the only possible target. Quote Link to comment
