Ok all the hand wringing aside. Who's excited to see how this season all plays out?
- Thread starter dinglefritz
- Start date
Speaking of Badger fans being able to pick a name and sign in on a Husker board and trash our team and coaches........just go away.

What did Mike Riley do to you that you are constantly denigrating him and his attitude?
I don't think I've seen anyone else comment as often upon his disposition…
Do you think he's not working for the pay day he receives? It sure seems to me like he's working awfully hard but the results aren't there yet, and you're not willing to give him a chance to change that opinion. Is that fair for me to say?
Don't sell yourself short jackass, we've got you, so even if Coach stops smiling, we can all laugh at you.
I'm not excited anymore. Nebraska can't run the ball and can't stop the pass. I'm not blaming the new staff, I feel they are playing the hand they have been dealt as far as roster and team psyche. I'll migrate to Lincoln for my annual game, maybe go to the bowl if we go to one, read every article, watch every video, watch the games a couple times on tape (DVR) just like always, but I'm not excited. I am starting to think of it more like going through the motions like I did during the two bad cally years.
Interesting take on that post. I took it to reference the general positive/nice attitude of Husker fans towards the opponent.
That is interesting as well, and you might be right...
But I do see wiscosker frequently talking about Riley's disposition, which led to my assumption.
I can appreciate your optimism, but you are looking through some rose-colored glasses. NW & Wisc. are ranked and clearly playing better football. Iowa is rapidly improving with Beathard at QB and are solid defensively. Minny took TCU to the wire and their defense will keep them in any game (something we can only dream about). Mich St. will thump us. Unless one of our 3 DC's figure out a scheme that doesn't give 500+ yds/game, we are in for a long Callahan type season.
If you haven't picked up on it, TT isn't saying these things because he is super supportive and thinks we are that much more talented than everyone else, he is saying these things to lay a foundation for his future nonstop complainimg on how bad the coaching staff is if we don't happen to win 9 games. He is a fraud. He is not a husker fan.
I'm obviously not a huge fan of Riley, and no, that doesn't mean I want Pelini back.
I was curious of this hire from day one, because it's obvious we didn't hire him for his career performance. Eichorst hired him primarily because of his calm demeanor, and the fact that he is pretty much the polar opposite of Pelini.
My welcome back to hell comment merely refers to the fact that this is beginning to feel a lot like 2005 for me.
And kudos on the guy who referred to me as a jackass, as well as the dude who thinks I'm a badger fan. Sorry to disappoint.
If the tail fits, wear it. You have a few more than 50 posts and EVERY one of them is either bashing our coaches or other Husker fans supportive of the team and coaches and you have "Wisco" in your user name. You tell me where your allegiances lie because your posts sure as hell look like your desire is to sabotage our coaching staff and football program.I'm obviously not a huge fan of Riley, and no, that doesn't mean I want Pelini back.

Your assumption that Riley was hired because of his "calm demeanor" is ludicrous and you know it. Riley was hired because MULTIPLE people that Eichorst trusts deeply recommended him as a great teacher, coach, human being and fit for Nebraska's culture. Riley was brought in because of his expertise as a COACH and ability to deal with difficult situations. He demonstrated the ability in years past to compete at a fairly high level with less resources than the people he competed against. Riley was what we sorely needed and is highly thought of by some of the most knowledgeable football guys in America. The choice was "outside the box" of many that wanted a younger big name guy but if you look around the country at the Charlie Strongs and Chris Petersons of the world, their results have been less than impressive thus far. I think we got the right guy at the right time for all the right reasons and I'm damned happy and proud that he's our coach.
