    Feels like we are constantly getting out of jams like that.

    POLL TE Heinrich Haarberg: Realistic expectation this year

    If we’re to be a 9 win team, then the best athlete on the team and a 5th year senior should be vying for all-conference honors. I understand he switched positions, but I’d argue he’s more prepared for it than a typical position switch. Hes been cross-training for years, played qb where he...

    yoy did it the right way. I bought a nice full set for my wife, think it was taylormade, and it’ll last her a long time, but if you actually get decent you’ll replace those clubs quickly.

    You did very well. $2500-$3000 for the whole set if you’re buying off the rack. Driver - $600 Wood - $350 Hybrid - $300 Iron set - $1000 Pitching wedge $150 Putter - $200 Sand wedge - $200 A good stand bag shouldn’t cost you more than $200, and a thriffworthy man such as yourself could...

    May Recruiting Thread

    This makes me wonder if we’ll see schools getting a portal player for cheap because his previous school still has an NIL deal to pay off? Much like we’re doing with Dana Holgerson.

    O/u for Scottie majors is what? 6.5-8.5? Who’s the last person to win more than 6 besides Tiger? Watson in 1980s? Trevino, Faldo, Phil have 6. Getting to 10 would be incredible, let alone the teens.

    Feel bad for that right fielder, but it is refreshing to see other teams make completely bone-headed plays.

    Nebraska media is drinking that Koolaid

    OC im honestly not sure who I’d trade for in the entire country. Holgo just seems like a steal. I’m with you on DC, I think it was a cocky hire. Rhule knows defense, he hired Snow who can help with it, and I think he felt a he could put a cardboard box at DC and be alright. John Butler may...

    So 4-5 years to acquire the talent, and then another couple years to actually be consistent with it. Hope Husker fans are that patient because I do think Rhule is the guy.

    That is definitely more lopsided than what I saw. Maybe it included transfers? Or maybe I’m just wrong.

    I thought I saw something over a 4-5 year span we had 1 less five star and only a handful less 4 stars. It was closer than I imagined.

    It’s weird that people think what Penn St. is doing isn’t possible for us. We’ve basically recruited at their level but drastically underperformed them. No reason we can’t consistently be a 9.5-10.5 O/U win team.

    Well said. This is where I land.
