    LMAO (Tater Island @Dean callout)

    This is just another example of something I think a lot of us realized years ago: Callahan is a "reporter" in the sense of literally just reporting what others tell him without any particular nuance or critical eye. He's clearly a very hard worker (despite the jokes about his self-pity on those...

    What infamous post/argument made G-rat invite you to this board?

    I used to be a really good, eloquent, and longwinded poster. I was invited on the basis of that quality and brought some of it here for a while. Now I'm basically a shitty lurker. It's probably me sharing the insider information with dipshits and ruining this place.

    January Recruiting Thread

    Didn't Mongo say Manske texted him unprompted about making another visit to DONU?

    Kingpin shit

    Oh, it certainly is.

    August recruiting thread

    Ag. I think he wants to do livestock stuff, which initially favored KSU over even us.

    At least one of them is approaching Wyld and Theophilus (RIP) levels of aggression. Always a pleasure to see.

    Lol, if it ends up happening, I'll shit my britches @HuskerDocCo -style.

    August recruiting thread

    This seems reasonable looking at the visit schedules: He doesn't appear to have another visit after that April one to Kentucky besides the early June trips to Nebraska and then Kentucky again. It's hard to say with assurance, because I don't see any quotes from him about his Nebraska camp visit...

    August recruiting thread

    I suppose it's possible, and definitely an interesting bit of information. However, it's worth noting Coen was hired in early January of this year. Maybe it took a little bit for him to leverage that relationship with Saunders's father, but there was plenty of heat with Saunders and Nebraska...

    August recruiting thread

    Yeah, that'd be great. However, I think a lot of folks have long expressed some doubts about Saunders being a great QB prospect. Probably pretty good, but seems a bit slight. What the hell do I know, though? There are also a few other '25 QB offers out there, but it seems reasonable to...

    August recruiting thread

    This actually seems like one of the rare cases where "we cooled..." is accurate. The timing with Manske coming to camp and Saunders no longer showing any Nebraska momentum is likely not coincidental.

    July Recruiting Thread… it’s almost gameday

    Very hysterical, if you know what I mean.

    She's awful and this subsequent line of inquiry is, as Terry noted initially, very on-brand. However, the sort of crap that Callahan and 1890 are going to do (which is reflected, I'm guessing, in this Purdue deal) is pretty shitty.

    Can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm glad Nicole Auerbach just wrote a tweet...

    Someone to keep an eye on

    Good to see he'll be getting the same high-quality education...
