Omar

[The Bearded One]

There’s also a bit of a difference between trying to help keep a guy who seems to be well-liked but has struggled with mental health on the field compared to ignoring the behavior of a guy like Maurice Washington who is just a bad human being.

Ok. I never made those comparisons though. Not fully understanding what you're saying to me.

 

[...TrueColors...]

Fair enough and I agree with your take. I give you Lawrence Phillips, Christian Peter, Fabian Washington and Johnny Rogers. With those names said I also understand they had already shown their potential on the field compared to Omar only being a myth at this point. Those players at that time were in a way better program with obviously a winning culture. Maybe Scott is rolling the dice here because he knows the potential and needs the possible stats and outcome Omar can provide?

The only thing we know about Omar is that hes a football player on the team who struggled and struggles with severe depression and anxiety.

Last year with Covid, the political climate, and the racial issues the country was having was simply not an environment for a kid like Omar to succeed.

I’m extremely glad he was here and he took advantage of the resources that Nebraska has. Had he still been at a juco or even a less resourced D1, he may have gotten lost in the wash. Dr Brett deserves a raise for her work with the team. She’s extremely good at what she does.

I don’t know if he’s got a different set of rules. I’m sure if a guy can miss a practice for an undisclosed reason and then not miss a beat the next day and get reps it creates the appearance he’s got a different set of rules.

The comparison was made on this board. I know it wasn’t you, but that comparison was way out of line and way off base. Mo tried to fight his captain his first year, committed a crime that he did jail time for, asked if he could play CB because “our OL sucks,” was objectively a terrible teammate, and took about two years away from football because nobody else in the nation wanted him.

Wasn’t meant to be directed at you. More so people who are worried that this could be a similar distraction like Washington was in 2018-19.

Hey, I’m not a purist…play the felon (I realize Omar is not a felon)…DGAF…but they half to want to put in the effort, or GTFO.

Sorry if everyone knows this, I haven’t been keeping up, but Waterboy is in Champaign and texted me earlier this evening that Omar is there as well.

Honestly Waterboy is probably at a greater risk of not finishing his career at Nebraska than Omar. Kids a fucking idiot.

Unless I’m mistaken I see two catches for this guy in the stat line.

Did he look like a shitty teammate while making them?

Grinds my gears that we have to watch Liewer drop TDs over targeting Omar more.

So what’s the issue with Omar? Does he miss practice, have stone hands or what?

 

[Driveway Jordan]

Honestly does it even matter? He plays less snaps that Liewer, Betts doesn’t see the field, and we have a QB who can’t hit any of them…even when they’re wide open. JFC.

I don't want to see them produce another BS hype video until they have a winning record.

This team is stuck on the premise of "we are Nebraska" when they are not deserving of what that means.

 

[Drue629]

Omar had 2 catches and I only saw him out there a handful of times. Sounds like he is, in fact, dropping on the depth chart, and somehow Liewer has surpassed him. I don't understand this coaching staff.
