    Dad of the year?

    Don't think I'd give Dad of the year to somebody that let his 5 year old fall off a cruise ship.

    Nebraska doesn't have a rival.

    They can't use the bottom half of the scale or it hurts kids feelings. When is the last time you saw a kid with a 1 or 2 star ranking. Everybody is a 3 star at least now. Started out as 1-5 star, they stopped using the bottom, so did the 5.5-6.1 thing and at least everyone is a 3 star...

    Phenomenal Parents? Class Act? I'm sorry that's the standard, not better than anything that would be expected. You don't get accolades for meeting the standard, it's what is expected.

    Twitter TPB X thread

    Yeah, but Nebraska is only one of two real teams that he played in college. Yeah Nebraska is tougher to play at home than @Kansas, @Texas Tech, @Arizona, @UCF, @Colorado State, @Utah, @Washington State, @UCLA, @Arizona St, @ TCU. Only team that comes close to fan support and home atmosphere is...

    A bit overkill for a guy ramming a police car with a minivan. Dude's going to have a dozen bullets in him.

    Judge approves House settlement - Schools to pay

    @Carm this piece that you were right about: Answer: Yes, up to $2.5 million of new incremental athletically related financial aid (e.g., scholarships) above the current Division I institutional financial aid limits in the 2024-25 Division I Manual will count against the benefits cap each year...

    Really interesting seeing where these ADs put their money. I wonder when Nebraska will announce how they are splitting it up. Sure didn't see tOSU spending money on Volleyball, their volleyball team has really tanked the last few years, I think they got a coach that's driving it down.

    Texas Tech and softball is an interesting case study. I wonder if other ADs will go all in on a more minor sport and try and buy a national title. Texas Tech is spending WAY more on softball than anybody else.

    Good question, but I assume it does, are we even 50% in B1G road games?

    I honestly think it will work, for at least a few years until the ACC breaks up and things change again.

    Judge approves House settlement - Schools to pay

    I am a wrestling fan, but just don't see it ever being profitable at Nebraska. Baseball has 140k attendance for the year and wrestling 23k. That's just a huge difference, especially when you consider ticket price difference. Maybe if Wrestling turns into a national power like Penn State for...

    Judge approves House settlement - Schools to pay

    100% agree with that. Baseball could make money, or more accurately break even, besides the 3 that currently make a profit, I don't think that can be said about any other sport in the department. Women's Basketball loses the most, Softball has gained a lot of attendance but has a long ways to...

    And so it begins...(tracking Coach Prime decommits/transfers)

    Agreed. he needs to get out before it all falls back down in a shit hole. He can ride his coaching "success" in studio shows for a decade or so. He'll never coach again after Colorado, but stay around as a media "personality", doing tv and speaking engagements, appearances and crap like that.

    Judge approves House settlement - Schools to pay

    LOL, just a lot of conflicting information out there. Partially because I think there is real confusion on what all this settlement means and some with just how news is reported now. The way I currently read it, subject to change, is yes if Nebraska gives baseball more than 11.7 scholarships...
