olddominionhusker Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 What happens with the players will totally depend on the hire. We get Tressel or a big name we could actually end up surging in recruiting at the end. I have to believe this is gonna be wrapped up quickly. The current players don't worry me. A year of eligibility is no joke especially if you are already a starter. And honestly, Armstrong leaving wouldn't bother me at all as I don't think he is a legitimate starting QB. 2 Quote Link to comment
The Dude Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 I was steamed when I found out my high school coach got fired after taking the team to the state playoffs for the first time in school history. I got over it. Quote Link to comment

ADS Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 On mobile so I can't post the tweets but Michael Rose had some good ones earlier. I think he understands the situation and looked at it with a clear head. Quote Link to comment
r06ue1 Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 I feel for the players but the program was not going to ever get to the next level with Bo as coach. Quote Link to comment
Bigred_inSD Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Have the players already calmed down on Twitter? Im guessing they got texts and calls already. Things will be fine boys Quote Link to comment

I think he understands the situation and looked at it with a clear head. Seemed mad earlier but then came around a bit. I like this kid. He wants to make Nebraska a great program and I think he'll do anything he can to help retain recruits. Quote Link to comment

redout22 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 I'm glad the players are reacting, they deserve to! However, don't do it over social media, makes every one of them sound like a drama queen and doesn't help them get liked. Quote Link to comment

It's totally normal for them to do so. Quote Link to comment
Bowfin Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Solution: Lets stop donations. Medical facilities, Yeah, let's not cure cancer if Tommie Armstrong won't high five us. That's the new Cornhusker standard... Quote Link to comment
sd'sker Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 i think with the right coach a lot of players and even recruits will be excited and regain their zeal for playing for nebraska. Quote Link to comment
Bowfin Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Fan adoration and $ is very important to heavily recruited players named Johnny Manziel I fixed it for you. Seriously, do you think a deer hunter, golfer, or sandlot player needs (or even wants) a roaring crowd to make his sport more enjoyable?...then why would a linebacker or tight end need you? It's exciting whether your seat is filled or not. I know that's a harsh reality to those of you who say "we" when a Nebraska football team takes the field, but do you think the players play with less emotion and enthusiasm at Northwestern, because there are far fewer fans and the are much less vocal? ...or do you "die hard, lifelong fans" need 90,000 seats and cable TV to try to make yourselves part of Alex Henery's kick against Colorado or Ron Kellogg's Hail Mary pass? Making college football a huge spectator industry gives you all a chance to buy into the excitement and make yourself part of those epic games and plays? 1 Quote Link to comment
tschu Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 @_willcompton 8m8 minutes ago As a player and a competitor. Looking back on the games we blew.. I feel at fault, as I'm sure other players do, as to why it came to this wow, that's quite the statement Quote Link to comment
