Pritchett, Spindler and Nwaneri were lineman from the portal.
Don't act like they aren't trying to get lineman.

True. I was just thinking of Rhule's list of portal priorities and how much I hate it.
Love of the game
Donate it to nonprofits that do nothing except make execs rich
I was thinking about one who's good, like the one who was ranked as the No. 5 overall player in the portal who is now starting for Oregon. Instead we settled for the No. 157 player who got run out of Alabama.
Of course it's not a merely a money issue. But better players would certainly help, right?
I don't get the sentiment expressed by some that Friday's loss means we shouldn't try to buy better players in the portal.
Like, "We were all for getting you better players, but now that you fell on your face against the Gophers, we're going to punish you by not helping you get better players."
Him at LT and Prich at RT would’ve been nice but how tf do we have no one else developed who either isn’t ready of painfully below average in year 3?
Buffett didn't lift a finger to help any of our 3 consecutive coaches who played for national titles.
He does nothing for athletics, and very little for the state. He legitimately gives bigger gifts to the university of Michigan than even Nebraska-Omaha that he went to.
Outside of his UNO gifts, almost none of his money goes to anything in state. It's all going to California organizations and Bill Gates' "charity". NU football won't see a dime of it until it goes through (probably multiple generations of) his beneficiaries.
It’s some sort of booster ego control. Instead of going all in they hold back until they deem it ok I guess. It’s very odd and no other peer program operates like that.
our head coach is a bleeding heart team mom
he is the CEO of the program and can't even bring himself to fire wastes of oxygen like Ed Foley and Marcus Satterfield
we will play like pussies as long as we're led by a pussy
the money and resources are neither here nor there
perhaps we will get another blubbering, tear-soaked postgame presser at some point this season

Buffet didn't go to UNO. He went to UNL.
The Buffet stuff at UNO is not from Warren directly, but from his wife Susan (whose father was once dean at UNO) and daughter Susie.
I’m sure your letter will swing the old man’s opinion. Why didn’t we think of this sooner…?
Trying to get the Oracle to donate is a lost cause...
Probably just as tough of a hill to climb is getting the people that run his foundation to give to NIL over cancer research or other things for UNMC.
But there's plenty of opportunity for more money from Omaha in regards to NIL. There's a disconnect that the President needs to figure out, and if the President isn't an athletic person that's tough. Ted Carter leaving was a blow.

You think have the Skers wear Maverick throwback uniforms for a game would help?
😁
I mean, that's an unbelievable idea. I know you were joking but what if we came out with Mavs O on our helmet as an alternate to get money from some of the people pissed?
Even if we don't go for the full throwback uniforms, we could still kind of partially adopt their history. I mean, they did rep the University of Nebraska. Recongnize some of their great players during a timeout like we do for returning Huskers. Maybe salute an anniversary team of one of their best squads, etc.I mean, that's an unbelievable idea.

Dude...
You sumbitch... do we recognize the wrestling national champions? The great football teams? Dannen show we are moving on from what has happened previously?
watchin elephants bang was never on my bucket list. Neither was this thread and here I am
