When do our fans start the lifetime contract talk?
I heard a coach dressed in a cowboy hat, greasy t-shirt with gym shorts was running around the media room yelling "9 wins 9 wins".
 
It's a drastic improvement on 5 wins, no? I'd be excited about the future if I was a Husker fan. Your well-earned brand has you still outrecruiting the dean of Big Ten head coaches. We're obviously beatable and Wisconsin is obviously beatable. Apparently, Michigan is beatable. Don't ask us about Ohio State.
 
Far from it. You guys own us historically. Good luck next Friday. I attended the 2014 game in IC when Kenny Bell ripped our hearts out. I have respect for your program. I plan on visiting Memorial the next time I'm able to get the PTO around Thanksgiving.
I wasn't referring to you.

We just beat a team 28-7 despite the fact that we had a former walkon starting at quarterback and you're bitching because we only have 9 wins. What the **** is wrong with you?
 
Setting the baseline for going forward, finding a way to win no matter the circumstances. Not going to happen every time but the expectation for it is.

Go get it done Friday and keep building on a good season.

463 is getting ripped in another thread as basically a troll. His last prediction on the game was a big Maryland win - this was pointed out in a dispute with other posters. So he missed by 42 points; and on who won. So he thrives on this - is he a fan or just... I would say its kind of funny what has happened with Iowa
( who I have admired at times ); wanting to fire their coach and waiting for the buy out to pay down, having a good season and signing on for ten more with 45 million and surely bonuses.

You're mistaking him with another poster.

Then my bad; just went directly off another post and didn't see a denial in their further posts. We should know posters can make comments we really like ( and other posts not so much ) - and I defended Bo as the head coach as much as I could; but not the behavior - So I was unrealistic, and that means wrong about the long term, but wasn't stomped . Imo, because my attitude was that as a fan of the program . Perhaps sometimes we should back off emotional posts imo. Then again; there are trolling episodes, and when top posters call them out, probably a good chance they will moderate their behavior. GBR

I really had no opinion on your post either way, and I'm certainly not defending anyone here as each can do that on his own. Just pointing out that the guy in the other thread was someone else.

Yep and it was late, the other started with an N I believe.

Yup. That's it. You nailed it
 
That was my minimum win count for the year...Good job coaches....build on it.

Thank God they met your baseline. Otherwise the program may fold without the possibilty of those millions in donations going missing

Actually it doesn't matter one bit.....that's what makes it so great they won at least based on the schedule., with more to achieve . Good times.
 
Troll attempt or not, a 9 win season with a blowout loss is familiar. We've achieved a Pelini. That's why the remainder of the season IS so important. Lose the next two games, and our season's momentum stops cold. Beat Iowa!
I think this is the best post in this thread. I agree with this 100%. It is a shame Tommy is injured because I think beating Iowa is very important right now for the momentum of our program.

Nor do I think the poster is really comparing Riley and Pelini in terms of "maybe we should have kept Pelini if this is all Riley can do". Pelini had to go. Period. And most of us support coach Riley 1000%. But in terms of national perception, recruiting, team morale, momentum, regional dominance etc... beating Iowa is key.

Your on record for Nebraska to "fire everybody"-

He is a troll... on record for firing every coach
 
I like to jest because there were a lot of fans of the previous coach. I personally am very pleased that Nebraska has won 9 games and there are no players or staff members out there pontificating about the glory of 9 wins.

There is a shot at the most wins for the program since 2001 and this is one of the most talent deficient NU rosters in two decades if not the most depleted. Look at the QB depth chart...a microcosm of the issues on the roster.

Riley doesn't deserve a lifetime contract or anything like that. He and his staff have earned the opportunity to recruit and graduate a full class of guys before we ever worry about sharpening our pitchforks.
