drewalt Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Nice post Indiana, I know if I was in Becks position with a full ride and a great chance to lead the team for 2 years and I quit, well, my dad would have his foot in my ass. They wouldn't make excuses, that's for sure. Quote Link to comment
huskerfan8 Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 beck is a tool...kick him off the team and make a point that they dont need babies on the team Quote Link to comment
skersfan Posted August 7, 2006 Author Share Posted August 7, 2006 You are spot on on the responsiblity factor Indiana. I still say that a lot of this attitude cam about right after the move Show me the MONEY. ESPN and their comments about how much some one deserves for playing a stupid game is beyone me. It all boils down to money. Play early and make it to the pros quicker.l I truly think it was one of the reasons TO left. He just did not see the loyalty the kids of his day displayed. Today's youth is all about trash talk, running your mouth and get my highlights. That is the reason I just literally hate to watch pro ball. Quote Link to comment
huskerhaze Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 I have been a Beck supporter up until now. Now? Eh, I could take him or leave him. Take him or leave him???? He better get back soon, and even if he does...do we really want to hinge our hopes for the next few years on a quitter? Quote Link to comment
BIGREDFAN_in_OMAHA Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 I'm with IndianaHusker on this one. Crouch was a crybaby that made his way back to the team after his tantrum. Hopefully that will be the case here. Yet I'm thinking he will follow the trail Dukes and Dailey forged out of town. Quote Link to comment
Alex 4.0 Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 the kid is wasting everyones time right now.... here is my opinion. lets show the teams players some support... Quote Link to comment
ttheKid1*18 Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 I'm thinking he will come back. Calahan seems to really like the kid, and wants to give him a second chance. If he and Beck can set some ground rules, maybe this thing can blow over smoothly. Quote Link to comment
cubhusker23 Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Time for him to sack up and stop being a drain on the team. This is exactly what we don't need right now. Show some damn maturity and at least act like a man. If you've got a problem talk to your coaches, instead of running off like a little girly man. Quote Link to comment
coyeote Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 This is really a non-issue if the OL comes back as strong as we all hope. Taylor will carry the load this year, #2 and #3 will be much more mature and able by next year. If the team is good enough they can win with a good QB and a great QB isn't a requirement. That being said I doubt Beck will return. Brining him back can only solidify him as the #4 guy. You can't move him up the depth chart for quite a while after this incident. Even if Taylor should go down at best you could now move him to #2. You can't give him a start. For me I guess this really isn't an issue at this point. BC will need to do what is best to solidify the team as a unit and not pander to one kids antics. Look at Stoops. He had a choice to make in the best interests of the team and the school. Granted it's a much bigger issue he addressed with a much more important player but it still remains that he didn't try to cover, sugar coat or pander. He made the call. Beck started with some respect for his talent and in one poor decision threw it all away. Now he must start over with nothing like a walk on freshman. I wish him luck and hope he's learned something from all of this. It'll be a tough road if he comes back but a road well worth the travel. The truth is that there was a possiblility that all his frustration could have been settled had he simply talked to BC. He chose another route and it may not have been the best choice.

HuskerfaninOkieland Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Any word whether or not Beck showed up today to practice? Quote Link to comment
tattooedhusker Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 not sure should know more by tonight or tomorrow...i don't know what to think...i'm split down the middle, one part of me wants to see him booted and the other part of me wants to see him come back and watch him progress Quote Link to comment
husker rob Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 according to Eric the Red's post with the practice days and times, todays practice started 30 min ago (3-5pm) and was to be the first day in pads. If Beck met with Callahan today and was allowed to go to pratice he would be in sweats today and tomorrow to make up for the days of practice he missed. I guess we will have to wait until the after practice report to know anything for sure. Quote Link to comment
Hunter94 Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Any word whether or not Beck showed up today to practice? i doubt he would suit up today...even if he was allowed back, it would take away some valuable time from Cally and Beck would surely have to address the rest of the team and issue an apology before he ever hit the field again.....not enough time in one afternoon for him to get that all done....takes a lot longer to "undo" what was done......it always works that way....always hunter Quote Link to comment
gamecocks Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 If he did come back to the team. I am sure he would be at practice. He probally did suit up but he would be there throwing footballs and watching everything. Quote Link to comment
