that’s it! We need to take all the money, and build a $40 million basketball team. The transition is nearly complete

We only need $5-$6mm to be top NIL of bball. We can probably fund that if we just take it away from foosball. I vote yes!

lol he even had a do not contact tag



What a piece of shit Minchey and his agent are.

Nebraska just isn’t a serious program. They desperately need to hire a coordinator as HC from one of the top 10-15 programs to show them how to act in this era of football.

I get it. I fucking get it. Which is why I’m so torn. Like 75/25 pissed at Rhule vs just the game…

My biggest frustration is the lack of contingency. Identify your top 3, approach then all with a strong number and first to sign gets it. Take the flip out of the equation

But I do disagree with the “there is no salary cap, pay whatever” when you know you have a number, that’s YOUR salary cap. And every guy has a number at which you say “naw”. The fact we put ourselves in position to have this happen is the most frustrating - get the damn signature. And if 40 mil ain’t cutting it, then you gotta find a different way to skin the cat.

But it’s revisionist to say this stunk the whole time. He was our shining example of “we are tampering like everyone else - this was a done deal when the portal opened.” So we can’t swing the pendulum back and say “SEEE! We knew it all along, we weren’t ready”

Again - 75 pissed at Rhule so don’t hear this shit as a cop out for him.

It’s shocking how bad we seem to be at some of this organizational stuff. I really thought this would be a strong suit of Rhule’s.

The hiring has been poor, to be charitable. This came off like a fucking clown show.

It’s really troubling that we finally hired a CEO coach and he doesn’t seem capable of managing a Denny’s at the moment.

I have been saying all end of year “we will see if Patty is worth his paycheck”

And as of now, he is not.

Don’t hate the player, hate the game? 😆

I wonder…Did Minchey know he was never actually coming here and just completely play us for leverage

I’m betting this.

The 5D chess does not seem to be paying off. Tbf there are 11 more days of the portal being open.

Is it to late for Trae to reclassify

Trae is not going to wear a Nebraska jersey

I’m honestly not paying as much attention this portal season as I have.

Don’t have any control over any of it, so changed my perspective to wait and see what happens and will think about it when it’s over.


Enjoying the hell out of Husker basketball instead. Been a great run, fun to watch…and much less stressful.

Come on over, we’re at Top 10 team fellas!!! Life is good!

 

[Frogsker30]

let’s tamper with Montana stats QB
Before tonight’s game.
237-329 72% 2892 yards 24-3 td-int
704 rushing yards on 164 attempts14 tds

Tonight in the 4th quarter he’s currently
14/19 255 yards 1 td
10 att 35 yards 2 tds

Could really use Geep getting his best OL guys here from GaTech to awaken my spirit.

Was lite thinking the same

 

[Irv]

I’m starting to come around to the slow portal theory.

If we wait and sign our whole class on the last day, they have no time to flip. Problem solved.

We might have actually figured out a way to hack this thing.

I give it 2 months before he decommits.
Kid lives in social media. He’ll keep reading how pissed Nebraska fans are at Rhule and bail. He made a preemptive post a couple days ago

Colanders, Lagway and Chiles, probably the 3 most turnover prone, rollercoaster ride QBs in the portal. Great
