I don't think I'm toxic. I don't have unrealistic expectations, and I'm not spending the offseason crapping on the team or issuing demands for my continued support. I'm a FAN. Nebraska is my ride-or-die.
I see good things in our future. We gambled on Donovan Raiola to get Dylan, hoping that Dylan's athleticism and ability to peer recruit would pay off. It didn't. Now it looks like we have the offensive line coaching we've long needed. Recruiting and coaching have improved dramatically, in my estimation. I love Teasley and Wade. I also love what the future holds with Aurich running our defense. I'm optimistic.
If you genuinely believe that publicly quitting on the team, crapping on the coaching staff, and issuing demands for your loyalty help this program in any way, you need a psychiatrist. The Nebraska fan base makes the head coaching job here an abject nightmare. Can't imagine who would want to put up with this crap.
This team has brought me unbelievable joy over the years. I believe in them. I will always be cheering for them.
"Not the victory, but the action. Not the goal, but the game. In the deed, the glory."
"Through these gates...."
Pretty lofty sentiments. Easier to live up to when you're 11-1. Should we chisel those words off of our walls? Or continue to support the team?
I love Nebraska, and I love my Cornhuskers. Always have, always will.
Go Big Red.
