And tailgating!I just hope we are sitting in the stands watching it in 8 months.
And tailgating!
Who'd a thunk it....a frustrated Husker fan.
I'll agree that right now we are in Bill Jennings territory. No denying that. We are still with a coach that made Riley looks like a winner. And that makes me puke in my mouth as a I type......The Husker football (and basketball) program is in a shambles. Players defecting, seemingly every week and the good news according to HuskerMax is always either Frost secured another walkon and 1970 was a great year. Adrian Martinez might be a good athlete but he has proven he can't quarterback a team to a championship. Frost was too in love with that kid...so in love he let Joe Barrow walk away right into a National Championship and Heisman trophy at LSU. And then he allowed AM to keep our program in the bottom tier while Luke McCaffery, with the right amount of coaching and snaps, could have brought a new skill set to the team. He just didn't really get a chance.
Don't look for much to change this year. Frost is a Peter Principle coach, having reached his peak at UCF and the other conference coaches love having him because they out coach him every week.
Men's basketball is in as much trouble although they have a great coach. Their inability to stay ahead of the Covid-19 virus ruined this season but they were not going to win a single conference game anyway. Their problem is recruiting. Every season it is a brand new cast of players...just like an intra-mural team. No cohesiveness, no real team work, nothing to cheer for. How Iowa and Wisconsin can recruit the way they do with team players who can shoot like Larry Bird and Nebraska at best gets rejects from other teams with one year of eligibility is a mystery.
The problem with basketball is recruiting, but we just landed our first 5 star recruit since what, ever?The Husker football (and basketball) program is in a shambles.

I've always liked the underdog role. Much better than the hype. Right now things look like they are falling apart, but this might be better than the hype and not doing anything after the big talk. The team just might pull together and do something special. Let's see how the story goes, because the ending has not been written yet.The Husker football (and basketball) program is in a shambles.

I'm NLincoln is always a good time. I will still buy 7 or 8 plane tickets to watch them at home every week. We suck but so did the Cubs and Wrigley was a par-tay. We can do the same. I want fans in the stands come Sept.
