It’s crazy to me that we have three local 4 star wr’s come to Nebraska and no one is high on any of them

Agree, It hasn’t given Nebraska an edge like it did from the late 70’s to the early 2000’s.

An overly large roster of players doesn't seem to have benefitted us in quite a few years.

There's nothing really left to say. The program is a complete joke, the official big 10 twitter account taunts us, that's what the conference thinks of us. The entire thing...our program, our involvement in this conference, our place in the national scene is a complete and utter failure. It's a failure from top to bottom involving every single person in the AD. There is no way to fix it without a full purge of every single person. I mean the adults, the players, the janitorial staff, etc. Any person that could possibly speak to how things were (i.e. "we've never done it that way before") needs to be removed. There is no other way, the only person that can handle this is the head of the university system. It has to be done to save things, and it'll look bad but you have to cut the cancer out. It's metastatic to the rest of the AD and has to be stopped. We can't even get a little bias in volleyball commentary, which we've rightly earned. The football team has infected how the media treats other sports. People have no idea what's about to happen as the landscape gets rearranged to the big programs and everyone else goes D3. It will be a disaster for Nebraska and will destroy livelihoods around the state. This isn't an overstatement but the braintrust on here will act like it's crazy talk, it is not.

Nebraska lost to UCLA with a Head Coach with ZERO experience.

This is going to be a good thing for Nebraska football. Nebraska needs to be focused in every respect, and I don't believe there is any way to efficiently coach a roster of 150+ players. Guys who could be "developed" are getting lost in the shuffle. I guarantee multiple points this season Rhule has thought "damn, I forgot about that guy" or maybe even "who the hell is this guy?" Sure, we might lose a few guys who could have eventually contributed, but that will be more than offset by focusing on a smaller number and getting them the reps and coaching that is so critical. I'm glad the NCAA is making a decision that we're too dumb to make ourselves.

Uh...
1 - Drelon Miller - Highly regarded Freshman WR who just had a breakout game against Utah. Compares favorably to a young LaViska Shenault. Has started at RB and WR for CU. Just figuring it out but will be a big-time player for CU.
2 - Omarion Miller - Sophomore WR, averages like 21.5 yards per catch. Big play WR who will no longer have to wait his turn. Injured on the season or would be having a big year.
3 - Cordale Russell - Freshman WR, former 4*/top 50 (ESPN/On3) who was injured early on and will miss the season. Supposed to be back in December but not expected to play this year. Has displayed big time talent in his short time on the practice field.

Those 3 are expected to be the best set of WRs we've had since Westbrook, Johnson, and Carruth were running all over the field in the 90's. The potential is there and not hard to attract the top rated QB when you have that on the roster. Had all 3 been healthy, they would have made a lot more noise this year.

Others:
Kam Mikell - Freshman, Highly rated WR that is redshirting this year.
Terrell Timmons - So., has played in place of Horn after his injury. Getting his feet wet. Time will tell.
Jordan Onovughe - Freshman, highly rated WR that plays sparingly this year.
Asaad Waseem - Freshman, hugely productive high school career. Special teams player this year.

Several highly rated recruits likely coming this cycle when signing day or whatever it is called now happens. I wasn't sure before, but after Juju's commit and their chatter on social media, I'm guessing they will sign (or send in financial aid papers or whatever they do now). I think WR will be the strongest position on the roster next year and maybe the strongest in the country when the dust settles. It will certainly be top 10 at a minimum.

Where you ice fishing? We’re trying Ballsrds Resort this January on Lake of the Woods. They seem to pull some big eyes and jumbo perch out of there and in quantity. Always looking for new spots though.

It has nothing to do with my personal wellbeing and everything to do with my home state and alma mater being viewed as a punching bag/laughing stock

I have a family, I have small kids, I am successful and growing in my career. If NU shuttered the football program I would be just fine.

I do care about our reputation and I am a proud Nebraskan and Husker.

It would be nice to have leaders producing a product worthy of the 92k in Memorial Stadium and the 1.5M Huskers they represent.

The growing apathy I see here is the canary in the coal mine for the death of our #1 source of civic pride as Nebraskans.

Well yeah. If you don't like fishing or lake activities then MN isn't for you. Aren't you biking guy? I see cool bike paths around Lake Vermilion.
