I thought they showed some good stuff in the bowl game, but now that the coaches got caught with their pants down at the QB position, they might want to think real hard about how they can become the best RTDB team in America

Or get fired
Almost all of their production came on the first few drives, Utah adjusted and they were back to being pretty average.
 


3 days from expected entrance to signature. Didn’t realize that was allowed. Doesn’t Mizzou know they should’ve offered him half the money and setup time for him to come to campus next week? What was the upper bound of their positional salary band for QB set by their GM before the portal opened?
 
Someone on RRS posted this morning that McKewon said on the radio this morning that we "like our RB room and likely won't be aggressive at that position in the portal." Anyone else hear that and can confirm?

Would be incredibly stupid IMO

I could honestly get behind this approach but they’re not even doing this, and they still dont have a DL coach.
And they’ve only landed 1 OL in the portal.
Are there any other prospects they are after we know about?
And the 1 OL is an interior player which does nothing to address the obvious issues with the OL
 
I've posted this a bunch of times but I will again...

disaster. Nebraska is operating like a middling Big 12 team but they're gonna tell us that they are trying to compete for Big 10 championships and playoff bids. But the team they are going to put on the field next year appears to be a middling level Big 12 team.
 

The positional cap is good in theory, but Nebraska(and FSU) dont have the recent success to set prices. Youre gonna have to overpay sometimes to get who you want when you arent producing results on the field and at the draft.

Texas Tech figured that out. If you arent the most desirable location/program/coach/etc, you have to overcome with Money.
Minchey and his Agent obv played Nebraska, but they also need to prevent that from happening in the first place

Nebraska fans are the biggest fools if they continue to sell out the stadium going forward.

I don’t think minchey really played Nebraska.
I think when the time came to sign he simply couldn’t see himself at Nebraska.

Did they even consider what their backups or committed high schoolers thought about this signing?

this just can’t be true. They did everything they could not to put Nelson and Mozee on the field this year. They way overworked EJ because they knew these guys weren’t lead backs.

The portal is your opportunity to get better. You have got to be interested in making yourself better everywhere you can, but especially in the spots where you are definitely not even an average big ten conference team.
 
You need to put a tampon in and STFU for 72 hours
Fact is there is nothing exciting about the program right now.
If you are a college kid why would you go to Nebraska right now? Especially a qb.

If you go on X the entire fan base is an implosion. There’s absolutely no momentum in the program.

If you are a qb the narrative is Nebraska failed Raiola. And rhules other qbs at Nebraska has been failures.

Rhules job security is in question.

And then on top of all that you go low balled.

Fact is simple. When Nebraska reached out to Minchey 4-5 weeks ago(around Penn state week) the program was completely different than it is now. Rhule got dildo’d back to back to back.
