Was out with some buddies last night and we ran into an ex girlfriend of one of ‘em. This gal punched him in the face a month after they broke up at a bar giving him two black eyes. 15ish years later it was still really awkward to run into her.

I have to believe you bunch of hooligans have some tales of running into the ex and I’d love to read ‘em bc I’m hungover. Entertain me!

GBR!

We may have had a 90-minute delay, but we're back at Haymarket Park as Nebraska (13-7-1, 2-0) take on Illinois (10-9, 0-2) to try for a series sweep over the Illini. The black jerseys will be on today for the Huskers, who look for the first conference sweep of the season. Micheal Garza will be the man tasked on the mound this afternoon as he looks to bounce back after giving up four earned runs in not even two innings last Sunday against Nicholls in that series finale that Nebraska lost 10-7. It was another good night for the Huskers on Saturday as Jace Kaminska pitched six innings giving up only two runs while the offense slugged four home runs including two sets of back-to-back homers. Here's that recap from last night:


On Friday, Nebraska put up a similar result, hammering Illinois for six first-inning runs that proved to be the difference in an 8-4 victory. That was also the night that the Huskers honored three program legends, retiring the first three numbers in its 117-year history as Alex Gordon, Shane Komine and Darin Erstad were honored.


Lastly, here's the series preview in case you want to get a better look at the Illini.

Has @Huskers1995! just had the worst day of any poster on the Scrolls ever?

Five-star WR Ryan Wingo was on campus this weekend and gave me some details about his visit. Hit the link...

4 star DE Kellen Lindstrom from Springfield, MO. Anybody know how involved we’ve been in his recruitment? Apparently Grant is very close to he and his family and says he’s just like him athletically when he was coming out of high school.

Somebody help link the profile please. TIA

My daughter is very tied into FAU bball through my son-in-law and I will be at MSG tonite. I am hoping to post on social media after the game ...if we win. Looking for a good logo or GIF that might be appropriate. Tough game but we are very energized.

On any post that I strongly like I post the love thingy!

Could we come up with a strongly like button that is a very more manly?

Here in northern Buffalo County I have 9-10 inches on the picnic table. The ground is warm enough to melt the snow so it is 4-6 inches deep. Looks like the gravel roads will be a mess.

....I don't....he's crotchety at times, but I'd have my kids play for him.....but what I like is his love for the league....he pulls for the league...I'm might be alone, and I KNOW we have a feeling that Warren shafted us a lot, but I ROOT for this league like I NEVER rooted for the Big 12....in his presser he restated his thoughts that the BIG 10 is the toughest league to win and it takes a toll....I know the Big 12 has been good as well, but.....

Patrick Ewing after getting fired at Georgetown:

“I am very proud to be a graduate of Georgetown University,” Ewing said in a statement. “And I am very grateful to President [John J.] DeGioa for giving me the opportunity to achieve my ambition to be a head basketball coach. It is particularly meaningful for me to be in charge of the basketball program at my alma mater. I wish the program nothing but success. I will always be a Hoya.”


I don't recall any such statement from Frost, which begs the question - is Frost a Husker?

Series-winning afternoon for the Huskers. Hit the link.

Good pitching and some long ball. 8-3

The Big 12 minus Oklahoma and Texass doesn't have any brands comparable to Washington, Oregon, and Stanford.

From a leadership standpoint, the Big 12 is light years ahead of the PAC 12. Brett Yormark likely saved the Big 12 from suffering the same fate as the Big East. The question is, can George do the same for the PAC 12?

What will stick with four-star Idaho WR Gatlin Bair about this weekend's trip?

"Coach Rhule's vision and the vision of all the coaches for the program and where they're trying to take it right now. They're definitely really trying to turn the program around and talking to a bunch of players they feel a really big difference. Everyone in the building right now is really excited for the next couple seasons, get some more wins and hopefully win some more games. Then potentially take it even further than that."

With all hype of the big recruiting weekend I expected to hear more on the forums. I know there will be exit interviews but where’s the street reports I’m used to seeing? We’ve got an airplane ride and a baseball game. No Bigfoot sightings or anything?

Let the competition commence!
