Nebraska only has history that the kids they are recruiting were not even alive for. They produce less Div1 talent than the states of Iowa, Minnesota, Kansas.. the list goes on. Furthermore.. it’s more in the middle of nowhere than a ton of other comparable schools. This is Nebraska. It’s ballsy move.. but I think everyone but Nebraska fans are left wondering what they realistically expect.. Money is money. But everyone in the B1G has it. Shit Iowa is 11th in revenue in the nation.. it clearly only goes so far..

A great season? Just think, for the next 25 years, MSU fans can talk about the time they ALMOST won something of relevance!


Penn State and UCONN I know, being ranked #1 for 5 weeks, being relevant most of the year. Where has UCF been this year? Oh yeah, getting beat by shitty teams, again.


You’ll be just like USF fans, telling us how they were once ranked #2...and they still have an empty trophy case.

Also.. obligatory pic



I RESPECT this gesture. I’ve done it myself. Different teams, but same gesture of sadness, duty and respect... and honestly, it’s kinda cathartic. Takes away some of the sting for me. Closure.

Bring back Tom Osborne chants can be heard around Nebby today.

They can be heard inside my house.

Still, who are they going to get that’s available and better than Pelini?

It’s hard to convince the top flight kids to go to Lincoln, NE instead of schools in places like Oregon, Alabama, Florida, California, Georgia, Texas, etc.

I assume you are referring to Oregon because of the thirteen cool, new, cutting edge uniforms worn each season and not because it’s the fucking state of OREGON. Unless you’re into craft beer, dreariness, rain or and/or excellent facilities (that many schools now have), there’s no reason for a kid to want to go Oregon to play ball... or for pretty much any other reason than those I’ve listed. ;-)

Yes, I’m referring to the University of Oregon. The uniforms are definitely a big part of their appeal. While Eugene is not an inherently exciting place, Oregon’s style of play and the overall nature of the conference are exciting to kids. Not to mention Oregon has been part of the national championship discussion on a routine basis over the last several years, including playing for one.

Firing Pelini is dumb but all Nebraska fans believe that seasons like ’94-’97 are their birthright, oblivious to the further Solichian damage that firing a 9-3 coach does to their program.
