    Raiola - Fibula

    I think Lateef is pretty talented. Strong arm and pretty mobile it seems. That being said, a true freshman having to now start the rest of the season (3 games) is a tough ask. Hopefully we tweak the gameplan using his mobility as a weapon or threat to loosen up defensive sets against us.

    Our New NIL Pool…

    That would majorly suck. Hope he sticks around next season. But I get it if he doesn't. He's improved so much this season. His vision, cutting, hitting the holes, etc. Still needs work in pass pro, but he can work on that. The kid has really showed his mettle as the season progresses.

    Our New NIL Pool…

    We absoluteiy need to bolster both the OL and DL. On skill players - EJ has turned out really good. Mozee might end up being pretty good, but who knows. But RB needs depth and talent. At WR - we have some good players, but honestly, compared to the true upper echelon teams in the country, we...

    Game Thread Nebraska v USC (Saturday, November 1, 6:30pm NBC)

    That is either a very bad turned ankle or broken. Those that wanted to see what TF Lateef can do may get their wish. Tough spot for a frosh to have to come in.

    I think the Firestick is Android based, correct? Just get the top of the line Nvidia Shield. Yes, their "newest" Shield is like 6 years old, but these things still work great. DL and install any Android app you want. Has two USB ports for loading movies or whatever and play them through the...

    Do you want Rhule to stay at Nebraska

    I agree. And next years schedule is tough. Way tougher than this seasons. If we lose most of our last 5 games, which is possible, it's gonna get ugly around here and in Husker nation. With next seasons schedule staring us in the face.

    Do you want Rhule to stay at Nebraska

    Yes, but I am not sure he will ever get us better than 8 or 9 wins a year. Even that is in question. But yes, because the book on Rhule at NU is not closed yet, and I do not want another complete reshuffling of everything yet again. Rhule has us in a better place than we have been for about...

    Matt Rhule Press Conference 10/20

    He wasn't wrong that the team failed in almost every aspect except special teams. Teams that want to win, don't lay eggs that badly. Yes, short week, some players banged up, etc. Welcome to college football. Sack up and improve. If the team wants to improve and win, they will and can do...

    I think we need to officially settle this… (poll)

    Yeah. O Line coach has to both recruit and coach the players. Both the coach and the players can suck, but more of that falls to the O Line coach if he can't get good enough players.

    I think we need to officially settle this… (poll)

    I don't want him to get injured, but I think the chances are pretty decent he does in these last 5 games. Rhule and Co aren't going to demote Dylan. So this oft asked question or assumption that Lateef would do better than Dylan will only be answered if Dylan gets hurt and Lateef is forced...

    I think we need to officially settle this… (poll)

    I think it is really hard to tell. Donovan hasn't fielded any actual "good" O Lines so far. That is telling. But also, outside of a handful of O Linemen we have had with Donovan as O Line coach, the rest of the players have mostly looked lke dogshit. We have a combo of a ton of whiffs by O...

    I think we need to officially settle this… (poll)

    I will add that, in the chance that Dylan gets injured, we will then get to see how Lateef does in the same pressure (as in, almost constant guys in his face) situations that Dylan faces. I may happen where Dylan gets injured, and having a mobile (albeit very young) QB with what seems like a...

    I think we need to officially settle this… (poll)

    Need an option that has both Donavan Raiola and the O Line players. Both have sucked rotten eggs. Edit to add that Dylan being immobile doesn't help. He does need to get the ball out quicker at times, but IMO he is rattled expecting quick pressure/hits on him, and B1G defenses know the book...

    Game Thread Nebraska @ Minnesota (Friday, October 17, 7:00pm - FOX)

    Lines Of Scrimmage. Lose those, lose the game. We got worked on the LOS on both sides tonight. Same ole, same ole. Unfortunately, we also got outplayed and outcoached in every other aspect, too. All the Rhule to PSU talk - dumps a shit ton of water on that now. This was just a...
