Nebraska Announcement Coming Tomorrow? (Dan Lusk news)

[CheeseHusker]

Well he was right about one thing - the B1G admin definitely won't like it.

I couldn’t sleep last night because I was so excited to see what the announcement was. 
 

This is embarrassing. It’s like a 20 year old kid trying to sue his parents, that he still lives with, for not buying tickets to all three nights of Justin Bieber playing the Pepsi Center. 
 

Personally, I couldn’t be more disgusted with this announcement. This will accomplish nothing. Kevin Warren isn’t losing his job over this. However, Nebraska will be held accountable on the field. Typical lawyer move. Eat a shoe, Dan.

That's great, I just don't see anywhere it says he's asking for money?

Not directly but the below alludes to the need for financial support-

"We have no big pockets to fund a marketing campaign. And we fear that B1G will try to squash it. Leaders must be held accountable and, simply put, that never happened here. This is only the first trailer. More to come. Please RT to support the project and get the word out!

But the article that knapp posted says it's already set to come out later this month. I think they just don't have any money/funding for a big marketing campaign

I missed that.  That makes sense I guess.  They still reap the reward from the clicks but at least they aren't directly asking for cash- just trying to build hype for the release.  Thanks

I don't understand the hate. The university has nothing to do with this. Looks like a doc that explores what happened last year and seems to have mostly Ohio State people interviewed in it.

I mean, I could be wrong too. He might be trying to drum up some $$$ for more hair gel

I would rather the University is not associated with the production of this; but I think for the other schools that matter and their fans, we are generally viewed pretty favorably for our desire to play. Of course we also earned the ribing for sucking a$$ once we started the season.

If this makes the B1G look like pile of s#!t they are, while not further harming Nebraska's image, I'm all for it.

This is a bad PR move for Nebraska. We gain nothing by dunking on the Big Ten over last season, and stand to further alienate ourselves from the conference. 

 

Exactly…and apparently just for the benefit of some ambulance chaser. As much as we all disliked how Warren and the B1G handled things last season, this is not a very “Nebraska” way to address it after the fact. I hope our school and AD publicly denounce and distance themselves from this.

Yeah, it's pretty clear that the leadership of the B1G took a big hit when Delaney retired.

[FrantzHardySwag]

It's fodder for a fanbase that hasn't had a good football team and wants to feel relevant. Despite the Ohio St heavy contributions and screen time in that trailer, I did a quick search and found zero threads on 3 OSU forums, attributed to any of this.  

[Hilltop]

Another angle to consider - this probably won't do any favors to conference expansion if the B1G was trying behind the scenes.  Or maybe it helps if some good accountability and change happens as a result?

So now you can all stop worrying about Nebraska being tied to it.

I'm more worried that you can't embed a tweet correctly!   jk
