Is it true about Cochran being injured? Anyone know about jacob hood from Georgia? If he might in the rotation eventually, it looked like Teddy P struggled as well, i know it was against Michigan and he is young still struggled never the less.
Lenhart in on the depth chart with Gunnerson..
Yeah and Sanford being back there is scary. Already dealing with Gifford who always seems to be a step slow, now we've got Phalen.
I thought he looked like he was far from playing shape. More likely be ready next year hopefully. You hate to bring in a portal guy and not make much of an impact.
I think they are going to process him. He's a bust. Just a large human that has injury problems and weight issues. The way our recruiting class is looking, there is going to be some really tough discussions for a decent amount of players.
Indeed. Hopefully when our staff goes shopping next year we can find some portal or juco guys.
Kicker is so fricking undervalued. Not being able to get reliable field goals is a massive problem for any team and a big reason why teams lose a lot of tight games. I think there is room in every class for 2 scholarship kickers. It's also demoralizing to the team to leave points on the board or be forced to go for it on 4th down in situations that would normally warrant a field goal.
would you rather have a true freshman playing safety. Geez us
I guess we will find out
At this point yes. They might actually make a difference in the rebuild.
Except he’s got serious athleticism. maybe like some of these guys a change in coaching was good for him. He was at the podium saying he was one of the guys, so he’s put the pressure on himself. Going to be a fun watch.
He has to motivate the team and is trying literally everything right now. Hes right, at some point its on them to play football and forget all the b.s.
I'm not going to continue to beat a dead horse, but I agree with you. Phalen Sanford has a high level of athleticism, there is no doubt. Speed, Leaping ability etc and tests off the charts. With that said, that doesn't always transfer to the football field. There is a reason he wasn't playing. Yes, he is decent on special teams, but no near as complex as actually playing D. He has rotated in a decent amount this year, but is kinda meh. Like I said, I love the Huskers and want them to do well including the players. If I had my choice though, I say go with the young guy that is going to help us down the road and not the guy who is a lifer on ST and that is about it. Hopefully we can start to turn the roster over and start to get winners on the team and people who have a little nasty to them. This team lacks full on leaders on both sides of the ball. The closest we've had to that in a while is JoJo and Stille. Dudes that played nasty and you could count on every week.
I get panned big time for what I say here when I’m pissed. Reported, ignored, etc.
You could say the same about Josh Bullocks. Never sniffed the field but he's been pretty good this year with the new staff.
I’m not the one who uncharacteristically put a target on my back into a microphone
It would not surprise me to see some (most?) hold an anonymous message board poster to higher standards than the Head Coach of the University of Nebraska Football program
Illinois has beat us the last three years and every year we say they shouldn’t have beat us. This is a big game from a culture perspective to win the games we should. Could help get a monkey off our back and Rhule knows it’s these games that give the opportunity to teach them how to win.
I think you misheard what he said. He wasn't talking about winning or losing. He was talking about his players buying in.
“you’ll find out what kind of team we have on Friday”
