Fifteen Extra Practices Incredibly Valuable To This Team Going Forward

I don't think those15 practices are nearly as critical to future success as other factors.

1,000 extra practices could not help this team, players or coaches combined. We would just get better at losing. It will not change.

I don’t comment much, but how in the heck can you watch this team over the last 2 years and not see vast improvements? Some on here are saying coaches are not good and need to be replaced and that the players aren’t good enough to play for Nebraska. I suspect that 20 years from now today’s Alabama fans will sound a lot like Nebraska fans do today. Those fans from the 80s and 90s were spoiled by a generational coach much like Nick Saban was to Alabama. There is no amount of money that can bring in the next icon to Nebraska or anywhere else for that matter. College football has reached a parity level similar to the NFL. Just today 3 major upsets to include the buck eyes and Clemson. What I can’t understand is how we can ask a young man or a coach to come represent DONU and then spend numerous hours tearing down their dedication to the program from our couch. We have amazing players and coaches that spend countless hours representing this University, ask yourself how many hours do you devote to make your job/passion better…..would the world consider you a success, or someone that needs to move on!

It's another Spring ball. How could anyone think that won't help? Another spring to work DH's offense. Get going guys reps with the 1's and 2's. Get those guys game experience as well.

Lock up Coach Holgorsen for two years and let him set up an offense in the offseason that brings out the best in what our roster has. We forget he is still using Satterfield's playbook and language

Those 15 extra practices WHICH WILL BE HUGE IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF WHAT WILL BE A FAIRLY YOUNG TEAM NEXT YEAR

Expect the young guys (ie Red Shirts) to see extensive reps in 8-10 of those practices

The starters etc 5-6 extensive practices

Not to mention Dana will have 15 days to more implement his system

Despite the loss last night the positive of the 15 practices can'r be overstated

There is no NCAA rule that limits bowl practices to 15. The later the game, the more practices we get.

I can’t speak for everyone else, but I am at the anger phase of the 5 stages of grief.

Are you in the denial phase or have you advanced to the acceptance phase?

FYI:

According to Kübler-Ross, the five stages of grief are:
  • denial
  • anger
  • bargaining
  • depression
  • acceptance

Which one is the heavy drinking phase? That's the one I'm in.

Except the thread is specifically about getting those 15 extra practices.

Are we better off not having them or having them? Do you really think they aren't valuable in and of themselves? I think we've had plenty of first hand experience with how NOT having them goes. Also think you'd be hard-pressed to find a coach who would rather not have the extra practice and game if given a choice.

Bingo, we need our young receivers to step up and these practices are invaluable. The currents ones are very average.

I can certainly say I have applied those five stages to those I have lost in my immediate family and those I went to war with and never came home with, but I can’t say I’ve ever applied that to a football program. I guess I would have to agree with others, drinking helps.
