Six Phillies outfielders die of brain cancer

Have any of you been reading about this? They are looking into artificial turf as the culprit. I know there are communities where people are limited to the amount of turf they can put in their yards and then they have to post a sign warning people of the dangers. I think the claim is the heat on the grass causes it to emit fumes that could cause cancer. We could be headed back to grass, which I wouldn't mind at all.

How Much Will Offensive Style Play Into Raiola’s Decision?

There has been significant talk from Coach Matt Rhule and his staff wanting to be dominant and physical at the line of scrimmage. I think most of us get that want that and we all know we need that upgrade. Rhule said he wants to be balanced as well. He wants an improved running game. We need that.

However, when you’re trying to attract and get a top throwing quarterback to commit like Raiola, I don’t think you want to carbon copy Iowa or Wisconsin’s offense. That’s my fear. I think we still need to incorporate a great deal of a sophisticated passing game, not only to contrast many of the styles in the West, but to compete with the East as well. Should Nebraska be closer to USC or Georgia pass run balance.? I’m not worried yet just curious how it’s going to look.

Quick turnaround for Husker Football

When it's all said and done, an autopsy on the 2022 football season reveals that even if we had had an average coaching staff (i.e. like under Solich or Pelini) starting at the end of the 2021 season and the same players, the 2021 team would have likely finished 9-4 or 10-3. It's hard to believe that even average staff would not have made the team good enough to pull out wins against Northwestern, Georgia Southern, Purdue, Wisconsin, and Minnesota last season.

For 2023, the non-conference games would seem to be all cupcakes (even Colorado after Deion Frost figures out what level he's coaching and that you can't win at this level with all WRs). For the conference season, there isn't one team on the schedule that looks like they'll be better than last season and 2 of the teams are trading in good coaches for new coaches who aren't really any better and may be worse. Michigan seems to be the only team on the schedule that is clearly better than we are, even with our obvious deficiencies on the DL and OL.

I'll wait to see the spring game before I make a prediction on our record, but where it stands right now, it sure as hell seems like it'll be better than 4-8.
