Sign Up Now!All the splooging over Garrett Nelson is what did it over me.I knew not to buy into the off-season bluster when I heard they made Kolarevic (a rightful 3rd team middle backer/practice body) our starting nickel.
For me it was Hixson.All the splooging over Garrett Nelson is what did it over me.
It's pretty mind boggling that someone who actually knows a lot of things about football wasn't able to see exactly how that would work out.I knew not to buy into the off-season bluster when I heard they made Kolarevic (a rightful 3rd team middle backer/practice body) our starting nickel.
Nobody splooged over HixsonFor me it was Hixson.
I should clarify - just hearing the name Hixson.Nobody splooged over Hixson
This is fantastic. Shows you how stupid Husker fans truly are
I remember Cockeye wanted Hixon pretty bad during recruiting. Was surprised to see him show the way he did yesterday.Nobody splooged over Hixson
#WarDaddy s&c is trash. I've been beating that drum for a while but ScoFro fans don't want to hear it.On the bright side, we finally found out that Frost had to be telling the truth when he talked about the OL puking all of the time . I've never seen an entire team so poorly conditioned that they all appeared to be sucking wind midway through the second quarter.....in scorching 67 degree weather. This team's S & C talk is the biggest bunch of bullshit. You might look great getting off a bus, but if you can't play 26 plays on defense in the first 27 minutes of the first half without blowing up, there's a big issue somewhere. The scary part is that the way they were getting dominated up front on both sides of the ball, this "shitty" NW team could have covered a 12 point spread of their own if Fitz didn't implement the most conservative offensive game plan since the second half of the Bourbon Bowl during the 4th quarter.
He was flat out awful yesterday.Meant Heinrich.
Tbh, I kind of wish he'd gone to Cockeye. Doesn't appear to have any business playing D1, IMOI remember Cockeyes wanted Hixon pretty bad during recruiting. Was surprised to see him show the way he did yesterday.
Edit. Never mind. Meant Heinrich.
Fitz going super conservative and the announcers dragging frost for basically the entire 4th quarter talking about how Fitz knows Frost is a losing loser who loses was a masterpiece.On the bright side, we finally found out that Frost had to be telling the truth when he talked about the OL puking all of the time .

That was brutal.Fitz going super conservative and the announcers dragging frost for basically the entire 4th quarter talking about how Fitz knows Frost is a losing loser who loses was a masterpiece.
If he would have went to Cockeye or Wisconsin they would have probably turned him into an All BIG backer somehow. I remember Wisconsin wanted him bad too.Tbh, I kind of wish he'd gone to Cockeyes. Doesn't appear to have any business playing D1, IMO
Agreed. He would probably be good anywhere else. We’ve now progressed from regressing quarterbacks to regressing linebackers. Truly impressive.If he would have went to Cockeyes or Wisconsin they would have probably turned him into an All BIG backer somehow. I remember Wisconsin wanted him bad too.
If there was a single ounce of bullshit I did believe this offseason it was that our linebackers were solid. Ho-Lee-Fuk…you really can trust absolutely nothing. Idk who the Wisconsin feature running back is but they could break the Melvin Gordon 400 yd dash this year.He was flat out awful yesterday.
I can't come up with a scenario where Wiscy rushes for less than 600 yards against us this year.If there was a single ounce of bullshit I did believe this offseason it was that our linebackers were solid.

Coaching Matters. No mater how many times we have said that over the last 5 years it has fallen on deaf ears with so many of the fans. This has been the worst staff we have ever had for developing talent, and it is not even close. Look at our offense where basically almost all of our 2 Deep at the Skill Positions are Transfers. All except for Vokolek & Martin are 1st year transfers. We bought 2 QB's, 1 RB & 3 WRIf he would have went to Cockeyes or Wisconsin they would have probably turned him into an All BIG backer somehow. I remember Wisconsin wanted him bad too.
