Good for him. What's he been up to??

Wouldn't at all be opposed to Tommy Gun replacing Whipple within the next season or two. From there, the heir apparent to Scott Frost. Calling it now. 2026 or 2027.

The QB at Northstar better learn how to say “Reverse rollout yolo bomb on two”….. (I’m just joking, I like Tommy. Wish him well)

I was wondering if they could grant him a covid year to come play a season at QB.

The YOLO bomb against Georgia in the Gator Bowl (Taxslayer?) was a thing of pure beauty. Will never see that again from a Nebraska QB.

Recent QB's in that spot...

Zac Lee throws a wounded duck that's picked off at Nebraska's 25 yard line.
Adrian Martinez takes a safety.
Logan Smothers tucks the ball and runs up the back of his o-line at the 2 yard line.

 

[Charlie Marlow]

Won't work unless he has Brandon Reilly as WR coach.

Good throw and terrible angle/effort by Georgia defender

 

[HuskerHusaria]

[huntered]

How does Armstrong make a living? Is he a teacher? Don't assistant high school coaches make an extra few hundred dollars at most for coaching?

Varsity asst position, it is a % of your salary as a teacher. Since I don't think he teaches for LPS it is probably like 2,500 dollars.

Wonder if some hot babe dated him in college thinking he was making it to the NFL, and now……..

Kurt Warner took awhile to get to the NFL. Don’t give up on Tommy just yet

Armstrong was Jamal Lord 2.0. Tough as hell, terrific runner and pedestrian passer. Most of all, both were leaders and I respect both of them.

You did not answe my question. What does Armstrong do for a living?

OC at a high school.

Seems like most all Nebraska QBs go into coaching. Frost and Taylor. Joe Dailey was coaching the last I heard. Maybe Mike Grant is still coaching as well? Gdowski is still coaching too.

Given the number of people screaming for elite, proven, Power 5 coaches to fill our vacancies, I find this comment very funny.

One of my favorite plays and games as a younger husker fan. That was truly epic and I miss being that decent.

I loved Armstrong. Glad to see he's calling Nebraska his home and taking his warrior mentality into coaching within our beloved state!

Tommy is married to a former Husker soccer player.

TA is no Kurt Warner
