Wish we had a lineman like Incognito now.

He had a sizable “nasty streak”.

I am starting this as a way for everyone to show their sympathy and support for Denny, aka BBTown, and his family. His family often had to tolerate him running off to meet a fellow scroller, but they also knew how much this community meant to him. He was truly a great person, and will really be missed.

Thank you to anyone who chooses to participate.

Feel free to share on the other Husker sites.

So, there's a missing submersible that was carrying five people down to the Titanic wreckage. It went missing. The Coast Guard was called in and hasn't found it yet. Here's more:





Here's more on the sub. What a wild story we have brewing here:

I believe Bert is in town for a show tonight at PBA?

LSU-FL run differential in back to back games. Has a team ever lost by 20 runs and then come back and win by 14...This has got to be a record of some kind, right??

I like where things are heading here for Nebraska. Would be a huge get.

We have plenty of DBs and Athletes in this class. Of the remaining Nebraska kids available we should only take Pyfrom and Nelson.

There are 13 new players (transfers, players returning after quitting) that seem to be good enough after spring practice to either start or be a member of a rotation for the team this fall.

How depressing is that. The fact that Frost left the team in such a mess that a coach could be hired at the start of December and find 13 new players (maybe more as the Freshmen develop) who are better than what we had returning for the rotation this fall.

If we had had open transfers at the end of 1994, I wonder how many transfers TO could have found who would have been good enough to unseat a projected starter on the 1995 team? Farley was the only new player who played at all in 1995.

Pick your team!!

Rex Guthrie has committed to Nebraska.

The 2024 Colorado DB spoke with @Steve Marik ahead of his announcement to detail why he picked the Huskers and how impactful Evan Cooper was with him.

"He was really the first big college coach to see something in me."

This is just a friendly reminder that Inside Nebraska is not a place to discuss politics or anything politically adjacent. If you are wondering if something is political, not posting is probably a good idea. There are numerous places on the internet to discuss politics, this is not it.

Political posts include (but are not limited to):

1. Mentioning political figures or candidates (including appointed political figures)
2. Mentioning political parties or ideals (Republican, Democrat, Conservative, Liberal)
3. Mentioning organizations / ideas that are heavily politicized (MAGA, BLM, woke, etc)
4. Bringing up politically divisive topics, etc.

If it smells like politics, it's probably politics. Mods are (unpaid) human beings and while we all try to use the above as our guidance as to what constitute politics and try to apply the rules evenly, please remember we're doing our best to enforce the rules set out by the owners and employees of Inside Nebraska.

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to myself or @Zack Carpenter or any of the moderators.

Another episode of the Blackshirt Breakdown is back, and @Foremanjay5655 and I are taking a detailed look at 2024 OL commit Landen Davidson.



ICYMI, here's the commitment story for Davidson:

Daniel Kaelin sat down with Inside Nebraska senior recruiting analyst and Rivals national analyst Greg Smith to discuss his performance at the Elite 11, the Huskers' big official visit weekend, peer recruiting and more.

Watch or listen to their interview with the links below:

Prigozhin and his men on the road to Moscow in order to eradicate evil military leadership. Could get interesting in Moscow.

I'm sure it has some indirect impact on Husker football.

Good stuff from recent Husker walk-on fullback commit Izaac Dickey of Cross County.

“So we run a lot of blast, power, so I’m J-blocking and kick-out blocking. We also run iso and dive to the middle. Then some outside zone and tosses to our running back, or counters with the quarterback. I’ve done a lot of everything.”

Talked about his commitment, fullbacks, Matt Rhule and more.

….have we Ever ever had more more of a mancrush than we had have on this Carter kid???( myself included!)
