lo country Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Unsure how he will work out as a DC at Nebraska, but he is always great for a sound bite. This most recent one from todays practice. The defense has the upper hand right now, according to junior cornerback Joshua Kalu. "I think the defense kicked ass today," he said. I think whoever that defensive player is should shut up and not say anything, and say it in private if he wants to, but don't believe it," the coach said. "It's like one of those things ... You put it in your mouth -- if you taste it, it's one thing. If you swallow it, you'll probably die from it." Bottom line, "You can't worry about that stuff," he said. "Because as soon as you're up, someone's going to lay the wood to you and you're going to be down." http://journalstar.com/sports/huskers/life-in-the-red/rose-ivey-s-knee-injury-a-little-tweak-banker-says/article_5b0f71b6-601b-11e6-9e7b-c7b86a2c8d5b.html 3 Quote Link to comment
cm husker Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Has he ever fielded a good defense? Serious question. I don't find those to be interesting comments. More like gibberish. Quote Link to comment
ColoradoHusk Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Banker is a flipping idiot who Oregon State fans ran out of Corevallis years before Riley came to NU. If the defense is like last year, Banker needs to be given an admonistrative job by his best buddy. 8 Quote Link to comment

He should go live in the dorms with Hank Hughs...I still think that would be one of the best sitcoms ever Quote Link to comment

lo country Posted August 12, 2016 Author Share Posted August 12, 2016 Has he ever fielded a good defense? Serious question. I don't find those to be interesting comments. More like gibberish. Hence the descriptive adjective of "crazy" as opposed to "interesting". I believe that Banker has had a few "decent" defenses while at OSU. Now defining decent is open to interpretation..... I tried to find the rankings, but didn't have much luck. I really didn't want to rehash the same things from last season. For today, we are undefeated. 2 Quote Link to comment

swmohusker Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Mike leech would always say zany, weird comments in interviews. But, leech was an offensive guru and it makes it easier to listen to. Bankers says this stuff that makes no sense and he looks clueless on GameDay. Hoping for a much improved effort this year. We have the talent to be a good defense Quote Link to comment

Just tell us how the team looks man. I don't need to hear about ham and eggs Quote Link to comment
