The average turkey price in Nebraska is $30.85 so that’s 1,296,596 Turkeys! That’s a whole lot of Turkey! Speaking of turkeys I wonder what Mike Riley is up to today? 1 Link to comment

But if you look at the top paid coaches in college, alot of those guys have won very big. Im glad they opened up the check book but i would of wanted to see that kind of money if we were going to steal someone from somewhere. Like if fickel is given 9 grand, ok. But Its like paying top dollar for a flashy car and theres a giant scratch on the side. With no leaks and Rhule's cryptic Tweet it's almost like he's trolling the fan base. The longer we wait, it also seems that other perspective guys are getting locked in to multi year deals taking them off the board. Wondering now it it's some guy not even mentioned..... Too the money, it's also odd with all the "largest assistant pool" in history that rumors are circulating about low ball offers or offers that appear to be "above" the qualities of the suspected HC....I'm starting to lean towards a "hmmmm" type hire. Interesting times for sure. Link to comment

Baylor won 7 the year before he got there and he won 1 in his first year. So it makes absolutely no sense to "remove" those from his resume. If you have to remove huge swaths of a guy's resume to make it appear like a good resume, it's probably just not a very good resume. Haha yep. 1 Link to comment

Seems like the guys committing (Coleman, especially) either know Mickey is being retained FOR SURE, or they know who the head coach is, and he's a guy they want to play for. Is that Rhule? Fickell? Deion? Urban? I don't think Deion is a possibility anymore with sCUm going after him pretty hard. But what a shock it would be if he was announced! 1 Link to comment

Interesting times for sure. I put 9 grand, lol good morning. And yea, he hasnt been on twitter for a while and then i bet he got 50k new followers within the last week so hes like, im gonna troll these fools. I would like to think though that some of these rumors are not just invented in someones head. Its hard to weed through the bs. 1 Link to comment

I suspect everyone is assuming things like Mickey will be retained rather than knowing, but that's not how these things work. I coukd be wrong, but I doubt it. Link to comment

C’mon man. You’re wanting a guy with barely any resume and what is there is worse than none. Gotta love it when people look at records and completely ignore context and circumstances. 2 1 1 Link to comment

Both Spurrier and Saban had losing records in the NFL. Add Urb and Schiano, Kingsbury as well. Even the most successful are slightly above .500. 1 Link to comment
