    OT:Road House 2024

    C’mon. I want another Willie Wonka. They make them every 10 years - and they still can’t beat the original.

    OT- Who watched this as a kid?

    A 13 year old boys dream show.

    Way to go Donnie

    You the man. Very few have the vision and knowledge of football (and especially Neb football) than you have. I’ve been watching since 78 and had a family member on the team for 5 years. But even I - am not worthy. I don’t what the f@&$ I’m talking about. Glad to have you back. The rest of...

    Top 10 breakout teams for 24

    Agreed. I want to see us win before counting on wins. I’ve been doing the latter to some extent for years and our actual record has always been south (sometimes way south) of what I expected.

    1.23.24 Bracketology

    Unfortunately - the way this team is up and down and gets blown out on the road - I don’t see them making the Dance. I do see them making the NIT though. So it’s progress but a bit disappointing.

    Raiola will need to sit before he plays

    He will start game 1 whether he is ready or not. IMO.

    OT. Any other water skiers out there?

    I loved it back in the day. Had my O’Brien slalom ski. I still enjoy it but it’s hard on the body at 55. My brother has a lake house and you rarely see water skiers anymore. It’s all wake boarding…etc.

    5 for 5!! All N!!

    You also had 2 QBs - Matt Jones and Todd Gragnano. Which was interesting. Neither were QBs with ability to be effective running the option. At that time was TO thinking about taking the O in a different direction?

    Calvin Jones was in that class. Donta Jones. Zach Weigert. Rob Zatecka. Christian Peter. Dewayne Harris

    5 for 5!! All N!!

    And for much of the 80s and into the 90s, his strength and conditioning program put all others to shame. Neb could make a 210 pound Neil Smith with only an offer from Grambling into a 260 pound phenom. Or see Danny Noonan go from 195 pounds as a Sr at Lincoln Northeast to a 280 pound, strong...

    What is your favorite memory of Husker Football with your Dad??

    Sitting with him at my first Husker game in Memorial Stadium around 1978 - playing Baylor and Mike Singletary. The balloons. The food. The atmosphere. But best memory was sitting by him at 94 NC game and watching the Huskers (and my brother) beat our nemesis (The Canes). The memories are...

    5 for 5!! All N!!

    Yep. There were years that Neb landed top classes. Maybe 4 in TOs tenure - mostly in the 90s with one very highly ranked class in 1985. But eye for talent, development and strength and conditioning - which at one time was light years above anyone else helped define his success. But he had a...

    Probably dead. He was around over 40 years ago.

    5 for 5!! All N!!

    Was Osborne a great recruiter? Certainly in the 90s he was but that is when Neb was on top of the college fb world. A perennial top 10 team during his tenure, I remember several years where he only signed one recruit in the top 100 (Emfinger). For a school that is is the running every year in...

    Ole Miss Star RB Judkins to enter the portal

    I agree - about 5 portal guys a year is a good number. Can’t do it like Deion and sustain success IMO.

    Old man Ferentz cranky he can't land 5-star QB's

    8-9 wins per year is Iowa’s ceiling. Do you think anyone (e.g. National media) believes that is Neb’s ceiling. We will see how things shake out.

    We getting this guy as QB coach?

    Maybe he can transform HH into a Qb?

    Casey Thompson back in the portal

    Bluto -that’s right. Great memory! : )

    Casey Thompson back in the portal

    And in some games - having trouble getting guys open - he sure the hell couldn’t have run it.
