    Texas will have a $40-50M roster this year

    With Venmo the transaction is already marked as between friends (if a personal account), when you choose your payee and go to complete payment there is a box at the bottom that says “turn on for purchase protection”. If you did select this it would turn this into a business transaction for the...

    Texas will have a $40-50M roster this year

    Transactions between spouses is never taxed, the $5,000 threshold is only for business transactions.

    Here is some good information I saw elsewhere online regarding ME as our STC.

    Breaking John Cook retiring/Busboom hired

    Not necessarily critical just my personal hot take. NU has pretty much had the number 1 ranked VB class every year since 2017, the upcoming 2025 season will make it 8 years since our last title. You’d think with our recruiting we could have reasonably expected to win it about 1/3rd of the time...

    Breaking John Cook retiring/Busboom hired

    Kind of the inverse of TO after Bob Father, his best talent has probably been last 5 ish years. Top class every year pretty much, wish he would have won the title this year as it was a fairly easy path IF we would have beat PSU. I would say Cook underachieved relative to his talent level since...

    Nebrasketball Coaching Hot Board

    Isn’t Fred a top 15 paid (roughly) at approx 4.25-4.5 million a year? If we’re paying that level for Fred, we should easily be able to pay at least that if not more for the next coach.

    RIP ED FOLEY

    Honestly I'm expecting at least 2 wins north of that for his year 3, especially before the bowl game. Should have won 9 before a bowl game this year (ILL, UCLA, Cockeye); that puts us at 9-3, then 10-3 with the bowl game win. If all we can muster next year is 1 more win over this season, that would...

    How often should NU make the CFP?

    2/4 years (12 team), 3/4 years (14 team); we also have the resources to be top 4 in the new BIG. Recruiting and development would play an obvious and large part here. At absolute worst it should be 1/3 years, next year winning 9-10 regular season games will go a long ways to getting us there.

    December Recruiting Thread

    Again just sharing what their ON3 board is saying, I didn’t read the Thune article so I don’t know what all was said; only what other posters are mentioning.

    December Recruiting Thread

    Im not saying I believe one way or the other but just sharing what their ON3 board is reporting and saying. I do think our NIL is up there in the top 10, definitely not below top 15.

    December Recruiting Thread

    Just going off what their ON3 board is reporting. I also think our NIL is significantly better than at that time too.

    December Recruiting Thread

    Just now reported that said NU and 1890 backed up the truck so we are NOW keeping Jones! Also rumored we paid Mills over $400K and that is more than all of OU’s receivers combined in NIL.

    Running List of Coaches Leaving NU 2024 Edition

    Hoping we go BIG on the DC hire something like $2 mil/year +, especially since we are getting $3 mil + the remaining contract amount left from FSU for White. Dana is making $1.2 mil/year with Houston still footing the bill, most expected his salary would only be $600-800K. If Dana wasn’t being...
