This guy has a pretty good take on the message board nonsense

We are rebuilding on top of a failed rebuilding project!

This isn’t the amazing Huskers of the 90’s. This is a new Nebraska Cornhuskers team.

To paraphrase Rick Pitino, Tommie Frazier isn’t walking through that door.

EXACTLY

we won't become a national title contender overnight

Oh...right...it only took Missouri 30 years to become 'relavent' again...

We live in an "instant gratification" society, people want it and they want it now: they'll point out that guys like Stoops and Saban didn't need a long time to rebuid. It sucks to be where we are at right now, but people need to be patient and stop calling for heads after half a season. If we're not on our way there in 3-4 years, then we move on to someone else......JMO

GBR

Exactly. People seem to neglect the fact Saban went 8-4 his first year at LSU and 7-6 last year at Bama. Stoops went 7-5 his first year. Jim Tressel went 7-5. Success doesn't happen overnight. It takes time.

Note that you just posted 3 high-profile coaches at 4 high-profile programs...and all of their first seasons were WINNING seasons.

Yeah...so what. I used these "high profile" coaches/programs to make a point. My point is this, people point to Tressel, Saban, Stoops and Carroll etc, and wonder why WE can't be the same way and/or have the same results so quickly. The fact is, these coaches who are very successful now, weren't so successful their first year. Stoops wasn't considered a "high profile" coach when he was hired (Florida DC went 7-5 at OU) Nor was Carroll (failing NFL career whose 1st season w/USC ended at 6-6). Tressell came from Youngstown (went 7-5 with OSU). Mack Brown from NC (who had the best 1st season going 9-3). Hardly "high profile" coaches at the time of their hiring.

Judging by the "cyber" tone of your post, can I safely assume you're expecting us to have another losing season?

Yep. And it doesn't make me any less of a fan than you.

I never said it did nor did I imply it did. Just frustrated with people throwing in the towel already when we all knew this season would be yet another re-building year. That's all. Patience is key for Husker Nation right now

We all? Can we go back and dig through the threads of people predicting 8, 9, even 10 wins this season....and then crying mutany when those of us said we'd be lucky to have a winning season? I just get tired of getting blasted for realizing and pointing out things and then when others start to realize it (and it is shown on the field) that then it turns into 'we knew it would be like this'. That's all.

Hey. Don't look at me. I predicted a seven win season; eight if we really did good. Both are still possible, but unlikely.

We'll see...
