    Stanford MBB gonna fired their coach...

    I think Porter wants to get back to Chicago. He grew up in Naperville (bell tower named after his family) and as a result was fawned over locally when he got Loyola to make a run. Depaul gets him back "home" and he now has a name to start maybe keeping some of the local kids at home. He was...

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

    My parents had 2 season tickets since before I was born and I always got to go to one game a year with my dad. It was almost always the 63-3 blow out of New Mexico State or similar but it was the highlight of the year for me. My dad's boss had 2 parking spots right across from Memorial...

    Legislating NIL money…

    I have said this before and will pose the question here. If you were in the position to contribute 7 figures to the program what would you rather do. 1. Give it to NIL where you get maybe 1 or 2 players for at most 3 years or 2. Give it to the university to use for the betterment of all the...

    OT-Hawaii wildfires

    If you have a decent insurance company, in a wildfire prone, area they will come out and inspect your home and give you recommendations, or often times requirements, to protect your home from fire. These include clearing vegetation, replacing combustible roofs, decks, etc. They also have their...

    Women's World Cup

    I couldn't agree more. Having grown up in a Husker season ticket household I have been a fan since birth. Due to my own athletics Iowa was a much better fit and as a result I became a Hawkeye but always had the Huskers as a close second. It was an easy position prior to NU joining the B1G and...

    Home schooling...

    Most sports yes, the uniform can be "unisex" but what about sports like swimming, water polo, gymnastics, etc.? My wife had just this scenario, a girl transitioning to a boy wanted to compete as a boy. Sounds like the ideal scenario however NFHS has a rule that boys swim suits can not extend...

    Millard North Football

    Petito has to be really old at this point and not willing to change. He seemed old when I graduated in the mid 80s but I guess all teachers seemed old.

    The athletic dept ought to be ashamed of themselves

    Iowa has an open practice. Run drills and game situation series, no game, been this way for years.

    Betts is done at NU

    When my high school career ended I was done, no longer wanted the grind. My father eventually changed my mind and I competed in college and it became more of a grind. I stuck it out in part for the scholarship but more due to my own drive to honor my commitment and for the resume item of 4...

    OT - Family trip to Chicago?

    Again don't take advice from out of towners. The city of Chicago is at most 25 miles from North to South and at most 15 miles East to West. There is no neighborhood in Chicago that is 20 miles from the area he is planning to visit. Stay in the downtown area and you will have no issues. Are...

    Hoiskers Big underdogs in Ioway City today

    I laugh at the assertion you have less than zero respect for anyone from Iowa. I think that is a convenient "I want to be an A-hole" statement. Would you tell Trev Alberts you have less than zero respect for him? How did you feel about Roger Craig? I was a Husker fan, growing up in Omaha...

    Where does Sean Payton end up?

    Chicago is the best guess. Grew up in Naperville, still has family and friends in Naperville, probably a good place to end his career.

    Husker Wrestling: Peyton Robb!

    In Texas news, Iowa and Oklahoma State are wrestling at Jerry's world this season. Should be a great dual and given the venue easy tickets to get.

    What did Clester Johnson know?

    You guessed it although my time was before coach Waikel, It has been a bad year with the elimination of swimming (and reinstatement of womens) and is particularly crushing for those that made significant donations to building the new pool, a true world class facility that deserves to be used...

    What did Clester Johnson know?

    By support staff I mean everything from training staff, athletic department resources, tutoring set up/resources, fan support, alumni involvement, and more than anything community support. This was quite a number of years ago and things may have changed in Lincoln but for an Olympic sport the...

    What did Clester Johnson know?

    I have held off posting this, knowing given my user name it would be criticized but with some perspective it parallels to Chester's situation. I grew up in Omaha as a huge Husker fan, my parents had season tickets since before I was born, never missed a game TV or radio, thought every football...

    OT: Netflix Doc Untold:Fish and Roddick

    I dove with Lawrence Roddick back in the early 80's in Omaha and remember when Andy was running around in diapers. Three year old Andy was a non-stop ball of energy that got himself into a lot of trouble with mom and dad as no one could keep up with him.

    Sellout Streak lives on

    But how much were the 2,400 tickets sold for? Was it the list price of $73? I doubt it. I'm sure it was a very steep discount in order to keep the streak alive. Not that there is anything wrong with that just that it is not a sell out of years gone by.

    Frost most likely to be fired

    If NU is 3-1 after the OU game I think Frost is in pretty good shape to keep his job. If NU is 2-2 after the OU game things are really dicey and depending on the NCAA investigation he may not make it to Oct. 1 but probably gets a wait and see how the season ends. If NU is 1-3 he definitely...
