  1. Somebody else made the assessment my response was if you really believe that someone is much better than the starter than why would you leave spring practice having the better player think he is a backup. Read the post I responded too before making a comment that does not apply to the context of the conversation.
  2. I am of the opinion that all degrees are helpful. Some will earn you way more money than others. I have a family member that has been successful in business after dropping out after two years of college and has a kid that did not go to college at all and was being defensive. He said I did X, Y and Z and all I got is high school and asked did you learn those X, Y and Z skills in college or in high school. He said the two skills that really helped him to get started he learned in his two years in college. Now the ROI may not be worth it these days but in our day even a couple of years of college had a nice ROI.
  3. I rather they give the better projected starter the spring reps because the other side of the coin is that we lose a great player to the portal because the better player knows he should have overtaken the player in front of him on the depth chart. Just like losing coaches is a good thing losing players because they lost their starting position will be a good thing. It will hurt depth but I rather not risk the better player.
  4. I did not buy this so I Googled it and it is worse than that in Texas they do not even require intent. "If you are on private property and intoxicated, your vehicle may look like a good place to sleep it off. But don't put yourself in the position of appearing to operate the vehicle, or you may suffer a DWI arrest. Texas DWI law does not require your intent to drive somewhere." https://www.dougmurphylaw.com/dwi-guide/defending-dwi-arrests-on-private-property
  5. I like how the OU player is just an empty vessel, that was a Freudian slip.
  6. Someone needs to tweet this stuff at Trev Albert before his first meeting with Liucci.
  7. This guy has two good lines: Arkansas hiring Bobby Petrino is like Biden hiring Clinton to run his intern program. Money can't buy happiness but that does not stop Texas A&M from trying.
  8. Pubes has football covered Trev is suppose to make them a volleyball contender.
  9. Would have never thought of a cleaver but that is the one I am going to consider.
  10. Was it Gerry that said we may be faster this year because of AD being replaced with speed. I guess AD looked slow next to X.
  11. Someone that was left behind and would like to view Nebraska through a bias like aggy when they really could easily reside with Penn State in the same tier due to their history and fan base.
  12. Let me spell it out for you only Oregon (money), USC, Ohio State and Michigan can throw their weight around in the BIG 10 conference and get the kids they want and constantly recruit in the top 10. Nebraska (18) and Penn State (15) even out because they can easily both recruit top 20 ranking talent. Penn State may be geographically closer to top level talent but only once in a while are they going to beat out Ohio State and Michigan for local talent those guys really covet. Therefore, both Penn State and Nebraska depend on their evaluations and development to be successful. So who gives a shit if that talent is local or from California and Texas. I sent you the Nebraska roster so that you could see that no matter how bad Nebraska sucks they are still pulling talent from states in which talent can be found. Yet some more proof that Nebraska does not have far to climb to reach Penn State even though they have sucked really badly compared to Penn State. The problem with the original statement is you lumped Penn State into a category in which they do not belong https://247sports.com/season/2023-football/collegeteamtalentcomposite/
  13. We try but you keep missing the point. https://huskers.com/sports/football/roster
  14. Nebraska got kids out of California and Texas and used the fact they were good to recruit Florida and New Jersey. Local kids was never their secret to success.
  15. I agree with with three programs you have listed but how does Penn State have more advantages? Please educate us.
  16. Nebraska had 3 10 win seasons between 2009 and 2012 and we all thought Bo Pelini sucked as a coach. A half decent coach probably turns two of those seasons into 12 win seasons. We will know in two more years if Nebraska will start being better than average because I think they have the right coach.
  17. Right now Nebraska and UCLA are in quarantine as far as the tier they belong too. I would be surprised if Nebraska does not figure it out at some point. Blue bloods always do regardless of hiatus. Bama had been a really bad program for about 10 years and some thought their glory days were in the rear view mirror.
  18. Found this as far as rivalry data since I could not find the Cody results. https://knowrivalry.com/team/longhorns-texas-97/ The numbers show reverse rivalry. So aggy it is true we don't think of you as much as you do us.
  19. Could not get through the video just yet because at 1:20 we have the exact placement of the ball that was needed against Washington for a TD.
  20. Where does it say that the top conference champs get the top 4 seeds? Could they get the bye but not be seeded one through 4 ?
  21. Still watching but it looks like the funyuns were laced with LSD
  22. That is pretty much the pass Purdy missed to 15
  23. Right now I want to say sarcastically great OT of a shitty game then I realize that in August I will be watching shitty football with great sense of appreciation after the offseason.
  24. This just has feel of game between two teams that are not running on all cylinders.
  25. SF offense has been stifled
