Lack of a volleyball thread is disturbing. Piss off on the thread title nazis

Should Nebraska consider going back to an offense that runs more option football. While at times it looked ugly this year all of Nebraska's wins was with Heinrich at quarterback.

I believe Nebraska could get the top running quarterback. Obviously the passing needs to improve along with the ability to pitch the ball. I think option football is Nebraska's best chance to become very good again. GBR

One hell of a man that made an impact on thousands of people. RIP, Coach!

Let us properly appreciate the GOAT Husker HC as we embark on another run to the Final 4 and National Title game - with a team and coaching staff that is set up to run it all back again (and again ...) in 2024 & 2025 and beyond ...

Prayers for health & energy & good bounces for the wonderful Lady Huskers

will hire UCLA’s DC. Ouch

According to Mitch Sherman this provision is in the contract:

White’s contract calls for him to pay 100 percent of his remaining salary in liquidated damages if he resigns to accept a position in coaching other than head coach at a Big Ten program, a program in the process of joining the Big Ten or a school within 250 miles of Lincoln.

I think the only FBS schools in that circle are Iowa St, Kansas & K-St. There may be some smaller FCS or other schools in that circle, but probably none who can beat $1.6M a year. Yes, a bigger school outside the circle would be willing to eat the cost, but it would definitely be a deterrent to a Group of 5 school looking for a head coach. So White must be looking for a Power 5 job or he'll just stay at Nebraska.

I can't remember if I've ever seen an assistant coach with this kind of buyout if he leaves.

tomorrow, when Michigan drags Iowa into the porta-potty and goes in dry…

Game story from tonight's sweep as the No. 1 overall seed Huskers (29-1) dominated the first two sets but trailed nearly the entire third set before a 9-3 run closed it out. Nebraska has been wont to do that throughout the year – either look fantastic early or fantastic late but either limp late or limp out of the game.

Either way, the Huskers set themselves up with a second-round date against the 8 seed in its quarter, Missouri (18-12), at 7 p.m. on Saturday night.


Hear from John Cook, Merritt Beason and Maggie Mendelson on their postgame thoughts:

Hi All -

I'm back in Lincoln due to the passing of my father. I have yet to attend a basketball game at Pinnacle and am hoping to take my brother to the Creighton game on Sunday. Thought I'd just ask on the board if anyone's got a 2 or 3 good seats of the game. I've been offered some nose bleeders, but thought I'd ask around for somethings that doesn't require binoculars.

Thanks and GBR!

Alright so I've talked to a lot of people, read a lot of threads, and have come to a conclusion that I'm about 99% sure is accurate... we now have the lowest deer population in my 30 year deer hunting career. And the bucks... its even worse.

Didn't see an adult buck the whole rifle season, passed on the one I saw during bow. Seen about 1/4 the total numbers as I did just 2-3 years ago.

Filled a doe tag but really concerned for the future of our states deer management given our current state. We are bottomed out (I hope) so drastic measures are needed.

Not about pointing fingers but changes are needed to rebound the population.

WTF... documentary about Chris Watts and his family. Almost parallels my family exactly…Newly married, beautiful kids, good job, new home in Denver Colorado subdivision (about a mile from our first new home). Dude literally had the American dream many would kill for (no pun intended).

Holy shit…this is going to haunt me...how does a man/husband/father do this shit? As evil as it gets. How is he not on death row?

Sorry for the rant…just watched and had to vent.

The B1G just became more competitive with the hire of Curt Cignetti at Indiana. He was the guy I wanted to interview for the HC position at Nebraska last year.

Looks like Nebraska might not be done adding to the offensive line. Ruggeroli just text me that he’s locked in for an OV Dec 8 weekend.

He’s completely incompetent and would fit right in.
I’ve Never seen a half of football with more picked up flags, horrible overturns, retroactively granting timeouts after a play, etc.

The guy must love hearing himself talk.

We are going to have to step up are pay in the very near future. If you look at all the hires being made and the contracts, they are being given 10 million plus for assistant pools. We were around 7.5 right?

Obviously White is going to get a big bump in pay most likely but to continue to keep pace we are going to have to spend.
