BTN at Husker practice today.

The Sean Callahan quote is wrong. It's up on the BTN site. They said it was the best practice they have seen of all the times they have visited Nebraska since joining the Big Ten. That is a helluva lot different than saying it is the best they have seen at their other eight stops.
Actually, he is correct. There were two different videos. DiNardo said it was the best Husker practice they have been to since they started doing this and Griffith said it was the best Big Ten practice they have been to so far this year.
I just watched Big 10 Live. Did anybody else notice DiNardo and Griffith get into it a little bit at the end of the show? It was about what they were doing after they wrapped up. It was during the segway back to the home base in Chicago. It was kind of weird to see what looked like genuine bickering between the two of them.
Ohio St,Penn St, Michigan, MSU, Iowa.
Believe they go to Minnesoa today and have Northwestern and Illinois left.
They have been to all of the east plus Iowa and now Nebraska in the west. They visit coach RTB today then they finish with Wisconsin, Purdue Illinois and Northwestern.
That could be. I rewatched it a couple times because it seemed odd. And for whatever reason instilll came away with the vibe that they were serious.
I have to say after watching these BTN guys give their thoughts, I am starting to drink the koolaide again.
I think the West is fairly wide open this year
* Wisconsin just hired a DC who has been coaching for exactly one year. I really just cannot see this as anything but a huge mistake - that would be like us hiring Parella
* Iowa - doesnt have a QB this year
* Northwestern - I am not as high on them as the pundits are
We get Wisconsin, Northwestern, Ohio State and Iowa all at home

Koolaide is always in the fridge at my house, BUT regardless of who the Badgers hired, you have to beat them. They will not beat themselves. And Iowa will come to Lincoln spitting nails regardless of record. They have embraced the rivalry aspect the series and that is worth at least a TD until we do the same. NW has developed a reputation of bushwhacking us at home, being one hail mary from dealing us three straight home losses. Does Diaco's 3-4 no-crease give an edge against NW's propensity to bust big QB runs?
I watched it last night. I didn't think they were really arguing. The vast majority of times when it looks like media people are having a real argument on camera they are really only jokingly playing it up specifically for the camera. That's what I thought this was.
Most years everyone is thinking magically things will change and we will be much better - However this year we have actually changed things dramatically - New DC with new scheme - new QB with a new scheme so there is reason to hope this year. The path we were on with Pelini ( after 2010) and then with Riley in his first two years was not going to end well for the program.
Riley made the tough call with Banker and to a lesser extent Read and then followed it up with a progressive hire and paying what was needed to get him here. I think we have a chance to surprise this year - especially since I think WI has some issue and Iowa has no QB and NW has a tough schedule
