Nebraska Football Is Fun Again!!

Those two hires set this program back years then you add in Scott the lush frost and there is the answer to why we’ve missed going bowling for 8 years
Yep. Fickell is ruining that Wisconsin program and Barry deserves every last bit of it. Hell, he’ll probably declare himself coach for the final game next week.

It could’ve just as easily been Rhule identifying the problem too though. It became overly obvious to everyone to identify. By all accounts, Dannen has done a great job since taking over and I liked him coming in. Love his football first attitude.

But like @mgbreis said, from the Dana side, he came here more for trusting in Rhule, not Dannen. Troy isn’t going to be the one capable of ruining his career. He works with and talks to Rhule every single day, not Dannen.
If it was up to Rhule no change would’ve been made until the offseason.
 
I wasn’t shitting on the choice as desperation I was shitting on the timing as desperation (it was).

An effective chain of command and a leader with vision and experience winning meaningfully is long overdue here.
All lies. You said **Rhule** replaced Satt with “super Satt” You said he was just another finesse, pass first OC, which you’ve said is not winning football, works against our defense, HH is god, etc. Ipso facto, you thoroughly shit on the hire. Now you want to act like you were all for it while speculating it was all Dannen and Rhule’s still a fat hobo troll elf preacher loser.

Rhule made the call. Initially to help identify and fix issues with the O and then once he was here he pulled the trigger for play calling.

Rhule said in his presser this week was one of the most important weeks of his career to try and get these guys a bowl bid on senior night. Three weeks ago he said there was nothing he wouldn’t do to get to a bowl game for the seniors.

I have no doubt Dannen is telling him to figure it out - but also it’s not like you gotta tell Rhule, he’s on top of it.

I’m glad he made the change and hopeful we can keep DH to make sweet, sweet music next year.

Yea. That’s why I was posting about wanting him in Dec of last year and say I love having him on staff.

I love how the guy who is most outspoken about believing in conspiracies, scripts, etc immediately becomes the biggest warm current teetotaler on Earth just to disagree with me.

The best. Have some dignity, little bro.

It was tongue in cheek. Hilarious that you couldn't see that.
Now if I were to say "Meds help", you'd have a point.
Oh okay.

You’re also the same guy who says meds/drugs are synonymous and that we have a caffeine epidemic, so you can see where I might’ve gotten mixed up.

Won’t happen again - thanks and apologies!

I find it interesting how every post that kong replies turns into all about Kong. For some reason he just can’t enjoy a win without interjecting himself
Frankly I have no idea why anyone is arguing with such an obvious and positive development for our beloved Huskers!!

I just want to celebrate this New Day with my Husker message board family!

We are Winning Again!!

First love Dana and Dannon full stop.

Secondly the speed of the decision makes me think top down. Getting payroll for additional people approved wouldn't be something that happened within a couple of weeks in normal circumstances from my experience.

I can't argue that so I'll give it to you. In the thread in thinking of it just came off as overly black pilled on the choice as well.

Rhule lets the OC run the offense. He didn’t “call the shots” under one OC and not under this one.
Rhule had a play sheet in his hand for nearly half the games Satt was OC.

We will never see that while Dana is here.

This post is fanfic.

This is all a good thing!!

Generals need lieutenants they can trust to say “yes, sir”. Nice Guys (Rhule) are great at that.

Lieutenants need captains (Dana/White) who can execute & get creative on the field of battle.

Dannen brought The Blue Book (google it) to NU with him!!

Who are you to tell people to google it do you think you are Kurt Cignetti?
By the way I did google him it showed a photo of him getting nutted on by Ohio State
 
OP is correct. Having an AD that knows and cares about football is something we haven’t had in a very long time.

Look at Wisky. Alvarez forced coaches to have a power run identity and they were very good while Alvarez was AD. Now they have no identity & will take Nebraska’s place in the suck category for years to come.

I was thinking that very thing while watching the game. They were about big dudes on the OL and punishing running backs. That’s all gone with Fickell there. They were better with Chryst. It’s why I’ve never been interested in Fickell and glad he never wanted any interest in coming here. Wisky is worse with him. And I couldn’t be happier.

I saw a story the other day that their roster currently boasts a fraction of home-grown kids that it used to.

whether it's other programs coming into the state over the past 5 years or the very public choice to rebrand, something's disconnected.
