Which goal posts would those be?

You asked the all conference players question. It was answered. You then wanted more. He saw you were trying to create a pissing match and he opted out, to which you proceeded to try to goat him back into the pissing match. You're being dumb

I answered that question myself, and refusing to acknowledge the other side of an discussion =/= "opting out". If either one of you would like to continue this in the 'Shed, I'd be more than willing to. If not, let's get back to the discussion at hand.

Why would this need to be taken to the shed?

I'm buying more into the idea that a dedicated ST coach would be the way to go. Divvy up the LB responsibilities between Ruud and Tuioti, and go from there.

Because, as you said, it's evolving into a "pissing match", and those belong in the Shed.

I think Swiv likes to piss in the open

Dawson is a done deal.  Probably announced next week.

 

There may be at least one more departure so they might be waiting to make one big announcement rather than a few smaller ones.

Hefrich still in play as well?

For special teams, you have to have a kicker that can put the ball at least inside the three yardline. Odds are high that this will get sorted out by August, I think.

 

But your special teams coach has to carefully review film of kickoff coverage. If a guy isn't flying down the field or is consistently out of position you either coach him up or you put a different player in his spot. Careful film review is so important here.

 

Having a kicker that puts the ball deep down the field is the bigger of the two issues IMO. But the other issue of poor alignment, angles, and overall execution on coverage is so fixable that it's almost painful.

These were really our issues this year

I just want to see touchbacks back in Lincoln. So important, and we've been so spoiled.

Not getting them has cost us a couple of games imo.

Yes, for sure. I was pissed at that return TD that Iowa had and then it hit me that the real issue was not having a kicker that can put it into the end zone. Probably cost us a bowl appearance.

You 'member that one time Kunalic kicked one out of bounds on the last drive of the game? I 'member. (unfortunately)

That game was worse than any breakup I’ve ever endured. That hurt. Still painful to think about.
