On3 Buys Rivals

[doublewing]

Could they of picked a more lame name than Husker Online? They had a chance to update an outdated name in HI and went even further back to the early 90s to come up with a name.

They do charge $30/month which makes me feel we are low

I don't disagree. But don't raise mine, just everyone else's - 64% of Americans.

Seriously though, keep this thing going Garrett. Don't be the cafe in small town Nebraska that closes its doors due to margins. Then have the locals bitch when you close.

You’re currently at least breaking even every month right? If your running a deficit then something’s should change to make it sustainable

I went to see if I could log in to my inside Nebraska account. Page won’t even go to the log in or to register….

Make sure your Javascript is enabled on on3.com. It's needed to login and register.

Yeah. Me too, but that’s cause Dean is an faggoat and banned me.

Hey now, let’s be fair. Dean would still be a ph@ggit if didn’t ban you.

Interesting reading both boards.

Inside Nebraska has better reporters, but limited scope with really only 3 reporters. Steve and Tim are outstanding.

Husker Online has more reporters, but some crappy articles. More coverage less of it is good.

The RSS is much busier than the Insider's board, but there are some real dumbshits starting a lot of those threads. Some just really poor understanding of the current college football environment.

Callahan has the numbers, going to be hard for Zack and the staff to hang on. On3, at least the way it currently looks, made it so that it's easier to find Callahan's board and site, which is huge. This merger has not been good for Zack and crew.

Don't see two Nebraska sites surviving and it will be hard to beat Callahan and those that bow down to him. Real shame that the superior reporting will lose.

Hit the nail on the head. Longevity is going to save Callahan, which is a real shame because Zack and his crew are light-years better at what they do. If they had the message board traffic Dean had, him and Sip would be writing free lance articles for the Hastings Tribune already.

Here's hoping something changes or that Zack and Co manage to stick around somehow.

This was sold as a merger but it’s really a buy and dissolve strategy. Dean is gonna have all the advantages in this unholy alliance, eventually there will be no insiders board and all members will be forced to join RSS. Dean had nothing to do with this “merger” but he will reap the benefits from how the On3 brass structured and orchestrated this merger. Whatever they sold to rivals was total bullshit and this was the plan along, and it will probably work.

Sadly that is how I see it as well. Real shame that the better reporters won't be covering Nebraska in the future and we will be stuck with Mongo and won't have Steve and Tim.

Need an Ask Mongo and Drunk Gregg thread.

I’ve been off the grid for a week and a half. Anyone have the patience and knowledge to let me know what happened to the Husker Rivals Site? @SantaBarbaraSker ?

I’ve never been a member of On3 and I haven’t checked the status of the rivals boards in weeks, but I’ll give it a solid go…

1. Someone made a joke about Dean. Not a mean joke, very funny and clever. Dean quickly deleted and banned the shit of that SOB.

2. Dean made several terrible recruiting predictions. Then changed his crystal ball after Wiltfong released his 36 hours before the announcement.

3. Mongo reported a handful of underwhelming developments.

4. An Cockeye fan posted something ridiculous with his fake Husker troll account.

5. A bevy of technical issues and a confluence of annoying adds.


Anyone who’s been over there recently. Let me know how I did…😏
