    day after thoughts.

    You say that like it was a surprise. I am no expert and don't watch film but I knew a bubble screen was likely in that situation - that is what Langsdorf always in similar situations (where a power run is the obvious call to virtually anyone else). The DB knew it was coming. Rewatch the play-...

    OT: Lexi Thompson

    Don't think you can tie this on the LPGA - the PGA does the same thing with then men. That said, I do think they need to do away with responding to TV viewer notification of infractions - at least when it clearly appears that the infraction was unintentional or does not give the player...

    POLL: Is Miles the right guy for the job?

    If you don't think Baylor is cheating you are not paying much attention. People in Texas view Baylor as the current version of what SMU was doing in the early 80's.

    POLL: Is Miles the right guy for the job?

    Don't think Baylor is a valid comparison. Dirtiest athletic department in the NCAA. I certainly hope we don't take their approach.

    Basketball: Nebraska @ Rutgers 11:00am ESPNU

    Were any of you people alive 5-10 years ago? Recent stretch is very disappointing - but state of the program is definitely at an entirely different level than it was when Miles got here. We need to find ways to avoid the bad stretches and obviously would have loved to finish out the last two...

    Isaac Copeland is N- GTown Transfer

    To be completely fair he has been injured and playing hurt when he played this season. That is as much as anything the cause of his reduced minutes and probably at least contributes to the reduced production. I think he had some injury issues last year as well. Pretty sure I saw that he was...

    20% of the crowd just left after regulation

    Last of the winter break games where they sell the seats normally reserved for students. I hate that they do that - but I can understand why. Back when I was a student we still had good student crowds during the break - but that was a LONG time ago when student attendance was much higher...

    ot: Anyone ever spend much time in a Muslim country?

    My daughter spent a week in Morocco and also several days in Turkey (Istanbul). She is extremely religious (Christian) but loved her time in those countries and learning about their culture in particular. She said that she found the call to prayer very inspirational. Thinks it is a great...

    Jim Grobe - Offered the job or not?

    No AD ever officially offers a job to a coach unless they have first confirmed that the coach will accept the offer. You put out feelers through the coach's agent and find that out. My assumption in this case is Grobe authorized his agent to say he would accept the job if he could bring his...

    No matter how many times you've seen it, what movie

    Godfather I and II are in a class by themselves. Could watch those both 100 times (probably have come close to that already) In the second tier of movies that I like to rewatch at least in part when I see them on: Shawshank Redemption Silence of the Lambs A Few Good Men Pulp Fiction Basic...

    Question for those who know NU Basketball

    Would become eligible for the second semester next year. Could not play until first semester was over so would miss the early games.

    Question for those who know NU Basketball

    Understood but actually that Incarnate Word team last year was pretty decent - at least as good as the Samford team we played last night (which FWIW is a good team for their level). But as bad as the Incarnate Word loss was last year it was a game that went down to the wire and took some pretty...

    Markell Simmons announcing tonight

    First nothing in my post was defending Pelini. Second my point was not to say that no recruits would be impacted by negative message board points. I am sure some are - although I would also say that in my opinion none "should" be impacted positively or negatively by that because message boards...

    Question for those who know NU Basketball

    Craig Smith is a very good coach and he and Miles had great chemistry from working and growing together as coaches. Losing him certainly had a negative impact on the program, particularly on the offensive end as HTO indicates. That said, we were not as good as we played for a stretch in 13-14...

    Markell Simmons announcing tonight

    Seriously - now you guys are saying that negative message board posts about the coach hurt recruiting? After the things said on this board about Pelini the last several years. This board is FAR more positive about the coaching staff now that it has been for years. Frankly I would think any...

    NU Texas Volleyball

    To me the most significant thing was that our middles go a chance to go against Holman in practice everyday. The improvement in our play at the middle blocker position was a real key to the success this year and I think having Holman on the team was a big part of that even if she could not be...

    Statement made during volleyball game...

    Gina Mancuso played at Papilion High. The current 3 (Rolfzens and Kelly Hunter) played at Papio South.

    Watched the film, no questions about it, Langsdorf made the right call...

    Exactly. The fade route play is obviously a pre-snap read. The idea that he should have looked at a different receiver after taking the snap on this play call is ridiculous. Maybe there is an argument that he should have made a different pre-snap read and not thrown the fade. But once he...
