    Clouds on the Horizon?

    I was listening to the 1620 USC podcast this afternoon, and at one point Kevin referenced a comment Pelini made that makes you wonder. When recently asked about the upcoming QB battle through fall camp, the head man said that the thing could drag on for a long time to come. Not like as in to the...

    About JUCOs

    There was an interesting article today on Rivals about Pelini's attitude toward JUCO transfers. Essentially he only recruits them if they're expected to majorly contribute. Contrast that with Callahan, where very few of them saw meaningful playing time, much less stardom. Here's a running list...

    Religion in America: Facts and Figures

    (Selections from the Pew Research study on religion trends in the United States) For a whole lot more info, check out the whole study here. This is one of those studies that gets thrown around a lot. I suppose it's obvious that the most surprising finding is just how large the unaffiliated...

    LOST

    SECOND WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD! AAAAHHH! So tonight was the night, and I just got done watching the overlong and commercial-laden series finale for LOST, arguably the most followed TV show of the new millennium. I came to the game late. It was only last summer when I had a needle running from...

    Today is Everybody Draw Mohammed Day

    I suppose the question here is whether or not this is really about insulting religion or freedom of speech? To my mind, hurling death threats at Danish cartoonists and intimidating American cable outlets into stripping pictures of this prophet from their airwaves has pushed this into the grounds...

    Oliver Sacks: What hallucination reveals about our minds

    In a strange way learning about how and why the brain goes wrong does as much to explain how and why it does what it does right. Fascinating lecture.

    Organic Food Myths

    For reasons I still can't quite figure, this is one of my favorite topics in skeptic world. Perhaps second only to Creationism, the organic foods/farming industry is one of the few subjects that approaches 100% bullsh#t, yet maintains its place as a pillar in the Church of Environmentalism. Penn...

    The government's hunt for the 'real' crooks

    Thought that was pretty funny.

    Will Nebraska Join the Big 10?

    Let's have it. What's the split on Huskerboard?

    The Coming Evangelical Collapse

    A Christian with balls. I like it. Brutal honesty is good medicine. I posted this article because 1-it was written by a Christian instead of a heathen like me, and 2-I think the author is right but for the wrong reasons. Expanding on the first bolded point, it is certainly true––at least in my...

    New Recruiting Philosophy?

    Awhile back I was reading on another board that the entire Nebraska coaching staff has changed tactics when it comes to recruiting. More specifically, there were some bizarre allegations that Bo himself had to step in when he found out that as of last September we didn't have any official...

    Continuity

    Every Nebraska fan knows––and everyone from Osborne to Pelini has said as much––that a part of the success of Nebraska football is due to the near-miraculous continuity with the staff. Last year we were one of a dozen or so BCS schools to keep our entire staff intact. We know our coordinators...

    Spring Game Radio?

    Just to be sure...the spring game is going to be broadcast over the radio, right? Huskers.com has some links but none that start at 1:00pm. (Post alternate links below if you have them)

    Retro Practices

    Nebraska made a significant alteration in the way it practices this spring compared to last, and Barney Cotton said it's gone well. “It’s been twice as physical this spring, if for no other reason than we always have two team (stations) going,” the Husker offensive line coach said Monday. “So...

    ***Official Discussion Thread***

    Unless I missed it, I think this is a Huskerboard original. No rules, no regs. No right or wrong. It can be answered from any perspective. It's the most personal but collective, simple and intricate, subtle and complex question that I know of––with the exception of maybe one other. What is the...

    Is Faith Moral?

    If I may pose a question... As a Christian I believed that God required faith from me; that is, there was a silent understanding that there was no way to prove his existence and so belief in things unseen was necessary. But let's think about that for a minute. Why would God give us reason, the...

    SOCAL's Razor

    This is a post directed at me in response to my claim that SOCAL's brand of anarchism is a utopian fantasy. Response below.
