Red Five Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Ireland's "newspaper of record" goes nuclear on Nebraska and Frost. The article plays the hits - Maurice Washington, LP, Ron Brown, etc. https://www.irishtimes.com/sport/2022/08/18/cornhuskers-bring-plenty-of-baggage-to-dublin-along-with-the-razzmatazz/ Frost is the character leading the Cornhuskers into Dublin to take on the Northwestern University Wildcats at the Aviva Stadium next week. If Aer Lingus and the litany of other corporate sponsors involved in this shindig wanted to give Irish sports fans a taste of the authentic college football experience, in all its exploitative, chew-these-young-men-up-and-spit-most-of-them-out glory, they have chosen wisely. With a rabid fanbase, Nebraska is an institution with a proud history of winning (although not lately) and an equally hard-won reputation for often doing the wrong thing when it matters most. When the current coach was a redshirt quarterback in 1995 (sitting out the season because he transferred from Stanford), Lawrence Phillips, then Nebraska’s best running back, broke into Frost’s apartment and dragged his own ex-girlfriend, Katie McEwen, down three flights of stairs by the hair before smashing her head into a mailbox. Phillips served a six-game suspension but was back on the field for the business end of the campaign to help them win a national championship. Of course. The university is currently on probation for violating NCAA rules last year, Frost himself is waiting to serve a five-day ban this season for his part in that debacle, and the newly-arrived offensive co-ordinator, Mark Whipple, was suspended from a previous job for comparing a foul committed against one of his players to “rape”. 1 Quote Link to comment

So...the Irish press stopped at Iowa to get their fan's opinion. Quote Link to comment
Toe Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 ^ Or that time Nebraska committed the grave sin of giving student-athletes too many textbooks. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

admo Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 The Irish locals are going to trip out, when they see the OL walk into a diner. Prochazka, Benhart, Lutovsky, K Williams, etc... Super big boys Quote Link to comment
84HuskerLaw Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 I’m gonna predict the Dubliners will enjoy the Huskers and fans very much. I expect a few very nice articles about the great Nebraska fans and invite us back soon. Hope the team enjoys it. It would be a blast - wish I could have gone! 1 Quote Link to comment
